Weird Life Experiences

Welcome to the Bolinger Group Blog.

I'm starting this blog to find a group of people who share some characteristics or traits with me. Just a few quick questions will confirm this.

The basic direction of the questions will be about things that have happened in your life that, at the time, didn't seem to be worth commenting about. Things that you assumed everyone around you probably experienced also. Only as you grew older and wiser were you able to understand that not everyone ( in fact, hardly anyone, or more likely no one) experienced those things we just could never muster the courage to discuss with friends. If told at all, we most likely told it with a spin that would make it seem like we were trying to "pull someone's leg". More often than not, though, we simply kept it to ourself.

I only recently became aware of a series of past happenings in my life that a select few had also experienced. Something I overheard in a conversation just seemed to invite me to butt in and ask a question I had no idea why I would or should ask. After asking the question though, I understood. The person of whom I had questioned looked at me in disbelief and showed me the cold chills on their arm!

The conversation that took place from that point on seemed as though it was only one person speaking. We literally finished each other's question mid-stream, and were constantly rubbing away the cold chills! When a question came to mind, we already knew that it would be about a common experience, and was always about something we could never talk about before, for fear of being "branded".

If the story to this point has a familiar ring to it, then you are probably "One of Us". I will in a moment ask a question that will answer that for you, then you will know. First, let me give you a way to contact me so that we may share some of the other key occurrences.

E-mail : jon1my@yahoo.com In the subject line please put : Bolinger Group

Now for the question, and if you can answer "Yes" definitely e-mail me soon!

Do You See Faces in Your "Minds Eye" ? Usually when you are trying to go to sleep, and that you can "morph" to be anything you want it to be.

More to Come, I will wait a few days for replies, and then post some of the additional experiences that will define our uniqueness.
