There is, not a fine line, but a broad grey area between being "psychic" and being "mad". But there is a distinction... one can gravitate to either end of the spectrum. That is what scares me the most.
It happened again last night.
I tend to sleep with one ear open. I think I have developed this as a survival instinct because I am a single female living on my own. I will hear a noise in the house and surface out of my subconscious state just long enough to determine its source, register it as normal feline activity, and fall easily back to sleep.
It was about 1:30 in the morning. I had been asleep for over an hour. It was probably just one of the cats, maybe even the little black and white boy kitty that likes to sneak into the house when I leave the back door slightly open. But when I heard the noise I went into alert mode... regaining full consciousness to listen for a possible intruder.
My eyes flew open. And there it was, in the dark, hovering above me. Barely visible, as if it were merely a trick of the eyes. Kind of like the colored spots that briefly obscure my vision after looking into bright light. But optical illusions of that nature don't trigger my depth perception. And sensing something that close to my face isn't just a visual thing... I can feel its proximity.
