In the Spring of 1960, I saw my body in my bed as I rose above my bed and then out the Window and I kept rising up and up watching my home and neighborhood and the land where I lived in getting smaller until I actually rose above the Earth looking at Earth, then I found myself entering a very very beautiful landscape of rolling hills, lots of Greenery of plants, trees, and colorful flowering plants, rivers, waterfalls, lakes, it was very very awesomely beautiful, but then I pondered why I did not see any living creatures at all, anywhere. I felt very lonesome. Next I was back in my body, and I pondered about what I saw, I loved what I saw, but it seemed so lonely. Is this place, and I wondered if this beautiful place was prepared for future living beings. I would think about this place every once in awhile over the years that have past till now. 

In Spring of 1964, I was in the habit of feeding Squirrels nuts, mostly peanuts. Sometimes in my yard, sometimes in my bedroom window sill on the 3rd floor. In the yard one day as I was throwing peanuts to the squirrels, my free hand was holding peanuts felt some plants with stickers, Then I realized that we had no stickers where I was sitting, I looked down and saw a squirrel gently trying to pull a peanut from my clenched fingers. Another time a friendly squirrel jumped on my lap, I panicked and stood up, but then I realized the squirrel was meant me no harm, he just wanted a peanut. From my 3rd floor window I would break up the hard nuts such as pecans and walnuts for the squirrels, a familiar black squirrel was a regular customer. But one day I decided to give him a walnut that I did not crack open. The black squirrel took the walnut away and was chewing on it. Then he stopped trying chewing the walnut and decided it was hard work. So he jumped back on the window sill and entered my room, holding the walnut with his two paws, looking at me, and seemingly pleading with his eyes for me to crack the walnut for him. So I took it from his paws, he handed it to me, and I cracked it open with my nut cracker, and put it back on the window sill, I closed the window, and he ate the fruit of the walnut. 

This leads to my 2nd out of body experience. I laid on my bed and was pondering what it must be like a squirrel. And often I included God in my thoughts and I asked God what it is like being a squirrel. It may have been a dream, but I was on the tree branch on the Big Tree near my window in a squirrel's body. I could see my house and yard as i looked around, then I started to move around and was jumping from branch to branch. I decided to go up the tree until i could see my own window. but it was dark inside, so I did not see much there. Next thing I know, I was in body in my bedroom looking out the window at a squirrel who looked at me and went his way. I was 12, and it seemed so real to me. 

My 3RD out of Body experience happened when I was 50 years old in late 2002. It was similar to my first experience. My Spirit leaves my body and rises above the Earth, and I find myself sitting at a table with three other beings in human bodies. They approached me with an offer for my future, I could return to Earth, to my family, and I would face very difficult times. Or I could be sent to another planet in the universe where I would be born into, that they could use me there. (yeah, weird isn't it. I didn't fell that needed on earth.) There was talk back and forth between me and them that I do not remember. It was as if some things we talked about were erased from my memory. I do remember that I decided that I wanted to be with my family, I had 3 children (15, 13, and 9) and I felt needed to be there for them. At that moment, they disappeared and a bright light enveloped me and I perceived that light to be Jesus, and it poured in my chest (Heart?) a flow of of something wonderful (Love?) filling my heart (Chest?) and I felt wonderful. And I awoke and I felt great. Now, having a science (Physics, math, electrical Engineering, and history, earned degrees I had to chose one of them) I probably would have conclude it was just a dream. But this wonderful feeling in my chest last for about two months. Everyday I was expecting it end, but I felt that wonderful pleasure emanating in my chest for about two months. 

The next three years were horrendous and painful, regarding work, then on September 17, 2005. 3 years after my 2002 experience, I had a stroke related to work. It affected my mind, and I was disabled, unable to hold a job. In 2008 my wife and I declared Bankruptcy, and in 2009 we could no longer pay our mortgage or taxes. One shining light is that we are still in our home, I know not why. It's been peaceful.
