My Lifetime of Weird Coincidences and Strange Happenings


en Limba Engleză Paperback
For all of human history many have believed that a small few among us have had the gift of second sight, the ability to snatch glimpses of the future or to obtain information by some method other than the traditionally recognized five senses. But what if these gifts are not as rare as believed? What if anyone can learn to access such abilities-and may already be doing so without even knowing it? What if, in fact, such events are a basic part of the human experience? Novelist and former TV news journalist and radio talk show host Forrest Carr has spent a lifetime experiencing various episodes that some might call paranormal in nature-episodes including premonitions, precognition, visions, clairvoyance, lucid dreaming-and yes, in three cases, even miracles. Like most "normal" people, wishing to maintain a certain credible reputation, throughout his career Carr kept these experiences private and under wraps. But the events led to decisions that profoundly changed the course of his life over time, an effect that has accelerated considerably of late. Because of recent dramatic new developments in his health-as accurately foreshadowed in personal premonitions-Carr feels that now is the time to tell this story. Or, put another way, if the story isn't told now, then it never will be. When it comes to events of this nature, Carr does not consider himself to be a "psychic" or to be in any way "talented" or out of the ordinary. He is, instead, an entirely ordinary and average person, and he believes that anyone can learn to experience the types of phenomena he has. In this book, he explains his experiences and shows how others can learn to accomplish the same thing. Carr spent a lifetime as a TV news journalist, and brings a serious approach to this highly personal subject matter, including supporting documentation where available. This book not only has the potential to open readers' eyes to an entirely new world, but to inspire the reader-especially those who might be encountering dark emotional crises-to embrace life in new ways, as these experiences have done for the author. This is a book that will introduce concepts such as paranormal visions, precognition, perception that comes in from outside the normal 5 senses, and even lucid dreaming to everyday people, and teach them to embrace and experience such phenomena for themselves. All it takes is an open mind, determination and perseverance. Forrest Carr, named by Kirkus Reviews as a 2015 "Author to Watch," is author of the novels Messages, A Journal of the Crazy Year, and The Dark.
