Why the Supernatural?
My grandmother was peeling potatoes at the sink when she had sudden "vision." She saw her mother, 17,000 kilometers (10,600 miles) away in the north of England, waving goodbye to her. The next day Gran received a telegram that said her mother had died--at exactly the same time she'd "seen" her the day before.
My mother often has dreams about events that are about to take place and I seem to have a knack for prediction too. If I feel something really, really bad is going to happen, it usually does. (My computer crashed twice while I was typing that sentence.) And if I suddenly start thinking about my mum or sister, and check the clock, the display will usually read 11:11. I don't know if some kind of "sixth sense" runs in my family. What I do know is that I'm interested in things that science can't always explain.
