Grief (Part Two)

 I wasn’t in this room at the moment Brian died.  But still I was with him at the moment of his death.   I was attending the performance of Swan Lake by the Russian ballet. It was my first outing without Brian or the children in several years. I felt so guilty about going that I almost cancelled my plans. It was during the Dance of the Swans that Brian died.   Strange how I knew that.  As I raised myself up from the floor I felt the same peace I had experienced during that dance.  I had been transfixed during that dance. I have never experienced anything like it before or since.  It was as if the ballerinas were angels floating up to heaven. My thoughts now turned to the children.  I must tell them.  

Q: Have you had a similar experience where you sensed something was true or had happened before actually becoming aware of it?
