Deja Vu?

A long, long time ago my grandfather had a dream about my parents and my brother having an accident on the way to Hyderabad. They were driving from Bombay to visit my grandparents. My grandfather dreamt that my parents hit the 7th pillar of a bridge, but no one was seriously hurt.
The next day when they were late in arriving, my grandmother started to panic and my grandfather told her - Don't worry, they've had an accident, but they'll be fine and they'll be here soon.

Last week, I had a dream. I dreamt of a neighbour who I had not seen in several months, and hardly ever spoke to even when I did see her. We were in church, and celebrating some event - it seemed like an anniversary of sorts. I thought it strange the next morning, because this woman was not close to me, nor a close friend of my family, but gave it no more thought.

That afternoon, my mother sent me a message saying that the neighbour had died that morning.

A few days later, I was speaking of a friend who I hadn't heard from in a very long time - and a few hours after that, he called to say hello.

For several years now, I have very strong, recurring thoughts to call a friend at strange hours of the night. And when I call the next morning or afternoon, she tells me that she had been feeling low or depressed the night before.

I'm not a great believer in the sixth sense - women's intuition, sure! But never this level of premonition.

I'm starting to scare the crap out of myself!
