Cold as it seems, family, money, and earthly things were of no interest at all.  Not one thought of who would get all the money I worked so hard to save up.  The second time this happened to me, the being and I were flying over what appeared to be New York.  I could see all the buildings and I could just go right through material things, for example I went right through a brown wall, I watched my arm go through it and then the rest of me went through it.  It was so wonderful I tell you.  I asked the being if this was real and the being who was so calm and mature and comforting let me know it was real. I specifically remember telling this being via thought, "if this is real then I'm going to have some fun with it." I then proceeded to dive down very fast in between buildings (like superman in the movies) and then back up again just having a glorious fun time. I did not see the bright light others speak of.  

A third experience I had was at the library at Wright State University.  I suddenly became ill in the stomach area and attempted to reach the ladies room. I did not reach it but lowered myself to the carpet in the study area because somehow I know that I would pass out and fall down if I didn't hurry up and get on the ground.  It became black as night.  Suddenly tremendous peace filled my being and I was so content and happy and satisfied.  Still didn't see light nor a tunnel but just so peaceful.  I felt great love, just like someone loved me all over NOTHING like earthly lust or even love, I did not see anything but blackness but I loved it!  And something in the distance let me know I had to go back and wham I jolted back in my body to find a sweet oriental young lady over me asking if I was ok.  I told her I was fine, got up and finished my day.   

I absolutely believe in Jesus Christ as Savior but I knew the being beside me wasn't Him.  Maybe an angel or guide.  I thank Jesus Christ for allowing me these experiences because I have believed in Him for so long and where it says in the bible we will get another body I believe that even more now.  When my time comes I'll be so excited.  In the meantime I have so much living going on, Jesus has made my life so exciting.  When I'm down He lifts me up.  When I'm up He walks with me.  If you are depressed go take a walk and each person you see walking or in a car or whatever just bless that person in your mind (wish good things for that person that's how you bless them) or do something for them nice.  I love to stand at an intersection and each car that passes wish good blessings upon everyone in the car and even their loved ones not in the car.  This is done quietly, no one knows it's happening.  If one does this to be seen it is in vain and it won't help.  In my mind I think, "Bless You" to each person I see, whether passing on the street in a store.  It's such a fun thing to do and it makes one smile and feel good.  Try it.  Get your mind off of yourself and you will be blessed, really!!  On my birthday my goal was to bless over 1000 people and I think I did, it was so fun! Remember, don't make a scene and don't try to get glory, you must do it quietly where only God can see you.  Also, pick up litter that's not yours.  When I walk I try to pick up a least one piece of litter and put it in a trash can.  If we all did this, all the litter would be gone! Like Oprah said, be guilty of random acts of kindness.  God Bless You, Love Sandrea.
