I had a very interesting time yesterday talking with my dad. He's in his 80's, had a major stroke almost 20 years ago now, and has some dementia, but I don't think he's entirely "lost it" yet, although there's THIS:
So we were sitting at his kitchen table talking about relatives who have passed on, soul and life "missions", and spiritual growth and time seemed to literally stand still. I could swear we were talking for HOURS, but when I looked at the clock again, barely an hour had passed! Now, for some context, my dad has some difficulty expressing himself and he'll mix up his words a lot (like he'll say "brother" when he means "sister"), but I can pretty easily figure out what he's trying to say. Also, for further context, in the years prior to his stroke, he'd done a lot of his own spiritual research on reincarnation, NDE's, etc. He also had the experience of communicating with his mother (my grandmother) several times just shortly after she passed. These telepathic conversations were validated through information she gave him relating to other family members that was later confirmed by them. He's not a "psychic" per se, and has never told me about being able to communicate with anyone else, although a couple of others in my family seem to have similar abilities.
But I digress. So we're sitting there talking and my dad says something about seeing "little people" who live in the walls in a corner of the living room. At first I was thinking, "well, he's finally lost it". But I figured, well...let me dig into this a bit more. After all, what could it hurt?
So I asked him. Would I see these folks if I looked? He laughed and said, no.
Me: So are they in another dimension or something? Him: Yep, you've got it.
Me: Are they little people like they talk about in Ireland? Him: Laughs. Yep!
Me: Do they talk to you? Him: Oh, yeah! They're full of love and very happy. They tell me lots of things.
Me: So you can see them? Him. Oh yeah, I watch them all the time!
Me: Are you able to see their world...where they live? Him. Oh, yeah. It's just like here, except it's much nicer.
Me: So many folks are talking about there being a "New Earth" right next to this one, but just slightly "out of phase" with us, do you think that's it? Him. Yep, you got it!
Me: So what do these people say? Do they tell you things? Him. Oh sure. They're very loving and kind. They were here (in our dimension/world), but now they've moved there. They tell me about spiritual learning and why things happened to me. It's all just a lesson.
Me: Do these people have physical bodies? Him: I don't know. They look like it, but there's nothing "bad" there (he was struggling to find the words).
Me: You mean, like negativity? Him: Yes! No negativity. Everything works and is good.
Me: So can we go there too? Him: (struggling with words again) Yes, but not like we are. No negativity. It's all love. It's not like here. I never knew there was such a place!
Me: So we can go there but we have to leave our negativity behind? Him: Yes!
Me: So people like (I mention a negative person we know) couldn't see this or go there? Him: No...no, but it's OK! Everyone's different. They're OK. We're OK. It's OK. (He starts crying a bit). It's so beautiful! I want to go. I'm ready...I only want love and comfort!
There were a couple of times when during the conversation when he became emotional--either laughing or crying a bit (and at appropriate times, may I add). I can't recall more specifics, as my mind was trying to wrap around this, but I honestly don't think he's nuts. Given everything else I've experienced and learned over the last few years, I truly feel he's somehow catching glimpses of another "dimension" if you will and that's something that helps him deal with his disability.
So I just thought I'd share this...for what it may be worth!
