premonition
Imagine you are driving along and you suddenly see an image of yourself getting into an accident at a specific point further along on your trip, a place you are about to reach. What would you do? I know what I’d do because I did it just today. I took another route.
Of course it turned out that that other route was closed due to road construction and I had to go through this convoluted process to get to work instead which ended up making me extremely late. And yet I don’t regret it.
Now my track record with premonitions, intuitions, perception, and awareness is actually pretty god awful. I’m never right. Everything I think might be the case generally turns out not to be at all the case. It was all always just a figment of my imagination.
And yet, I never ignore it. Perhaps it is folly, but I don’t think I ever could. Even tomorrow I won’t take that route to work again no matter how late I am running. In fact chances are very good that I will never drive that way again if I can help me.
How crazy is that?
