Experience description:

trying to go to sleep at 4 AM...I thought someone was in the house I heard shuffling of feet outside my bedroom door then all of a sudden someone was on my bed I thought someone was going to kill me. I felt absolute terror there were impressions on my bed as the person was getting close to me. I tried to scream and nothing would come out I tried to move and I could not move as I was frozen in terror. As he approached me all of a sudden arms were holding me and I was at complete peace and I knew it John I could feel his arms around me I think I even touched one arm. The next day I was watching a video he had made and I have never seen or heard it and it was the same shuffling of his feet. I was blown away and knew it was him. I was in utter shock that this happened and it was him. How could this Be?

 Describe in detail your feelings/emotions during the experience:  I was in terror and I now know how murder victims must feel like just before they are killed. That's how intense the emotions were until he touched me and put his arms around me in a loving embrace. I was instantly soothed by my husband and his love for me.I know now how much he was missing me also.I was confused after this experience ,not knowing what had just happened to me .But since then we have been tied in many more experiences since this one.

He has changed me in such a caring and compassionate way but I grieve the loss of all that was ahead of us and his unconditional love for me. I am now searching and an new understanding of what happens to us when we pass on. My close circle of friends do not believe in any of this and I need to talk to people who do.

Did you have any changes of attitudes or beliefs following the experience?      Yes    The belief that he was not dead something else was going on. So I pursued someone who told a friend she would explain what just happened to me.

 Did the experience give you any spiritual understandings such as life, death, afterlife, God, etc.?         Yes    I have had numerous encounters with my husband after this first one. This has set me on a path of research of the afterlife and reincarnation. I knew there had to be more I always believed we reincarnated in fact on the 3rd date with my husband we were talking and I blurted out 'What took you so long to show up in y life this time'? He said 'oh I don't know if I believe that but I have never felt so comfortably talking and being with someone'. The rest of the night was finding out all the dates that lined up with both of our separate lives and we marveled at synchronicity of these dates with similar events.
