These posts are an account of my own personal experiences with spirituality and the paranormal in chronological order to the best of my memory.

I was very little at the time. I'm not sure exactly how old I was. I was in bed and my mother was about to turn out the light overhead as she left my room. I asked her to leave the light on because I was afraid the ghosts were going to get me. I had convinced myself they wouldn't come if the light remained on. She became angry at me and yelled how it was going to make her electricity bill high. She did not turn the light off though when she left my room.

As a very young child, my mother would train me to develop my psychic gifts. I remember walking home from the store with my mother and younger brother one time. I was trying to read minds. I asked my younger brother to picture his favourite flower in his mind. I concentrated and saw a pansy.
I said, "It's a pansy."
He asked my mum what a pansy was and she told him it was a small purple and yellow flower.
"That's right!", he told me.
I then asked my mother to do it and I saw a rose. I told her and she confirmed that I was correct. Years later, my mother would tell me that when I was young I went around the house talking about Patty Hearst for some time. She said she had no idea what I was talking about until it came on the news one day. I don't remember this. She stopped working on my psychic gifts and told me to stop talking about it when she got together with my step-father. She said he wouldn't like it. I learned to hide it.

When I was a kid, my mother would play the radio in the mornings while we ate breakfast and got ready for school. Every week day morning, the radio station would have a phone-in contest for children. The kids had to call in and guess the number. If they got it right they won a prize. I only remember them allowing one child to try each morning.
One morning when they made the announcement for the kids to call in for the contest, I somehow knew it was number 4 that day and if I called in I would win! I ran to the phone on the wall in the kitchen and asked my mother if I could call the radio station because I knew the number was going to be 4 that day! She refused to let me.
Disappointed, I sat down at the table to eat my breakfast along with my brothers. The contest came on a few minutes later and the D.J. asked the kid that called in for the number. He guessed wrong. It had been 4!! I had been right. I would have won the prize if I had gotten through. That is, if I had been allowed to call at all. That was the only time I got the number. I suppose it was fruitless to bother again, so I never tried.
However, that was when I decided that 4 was my lucky number, despite not actually getting the prize.
