I just had an extremely strange experience.

Without adding story, here are the facts.

Make of it what you will.

I am not making any claims here.

I was driving back from dropping my child at school and had slowed to 30 MPH for a village.

While driving through the village I experienced a very odd tingling just below my ears and along my jaw.

The sensation reminded me of many times in the past where I had experienced a similar feeling (not an emotion).

I ended up very deep in thought about a visit to the zoo with a friends baby daughter, who I predicted would be into animal rights, she is…

It’s pretty specific isn’t it.

She was pre-language, so did I influence her?

As I drove out of the village, I forgot to speed up. And in my day dream, I spotted a black shape moving ahead of me, but something was up!

On a blind corner, on my side of the road, was a black VW Passat saloon which narrowly missed me and ducked back into the oncoming traffic.

By the time I reacted and hit the horn he was already behind me.

It was as if I was in a trance.

My awareness returned to the car and I realised I would normally be on the wrong edge of the speed limit of 60MPH on this particular route.

Had I arrived at that point in the road seconds earlier, there would have been a very big bang!

Another looking glass moment, brought to you by…
