A Week Had Passed Since My Last Meeting With Gideon And Marla. Christmas Was Only A Few Days Away And We, Like Many Other Families,were Preparing For The Occasion. Barely Able To Afford A Tree, We Settled For A Sorry-looking Specimen And Spent Most Of The Remaining Weekend Hanging Ornaments,lights And Decorations. Tired But Pleased That We Were Able To Make The Most Of What We Had, I Fell Into Bed Exhausted.I Must Scarcely Have Fallen Asleep When, All Of A Sudden,I Was Wide Awake Again.Being Awake This Time, However, Was Somewhat Different. I Appeared To Be Floating In The Air.Disorienting As This Seemed At First, I Somehow Felt A Sense Of Curiosity And Freedom. Gazing Down, I Saw My Body Lying Peacefully Asleep Between The Sheets Yet, I Was Vibrantly Awake, Conscious And Able To Think. I Peered Around Me And Found The Room As I Knew It.I Seemed To Have A Body, But It Was Much Lighter Than The One I Was Accustomed To. Perhaps I Had Died, I Thought, Yet I Felt More Alive Than Ever. I Was Beginning To Panic When A Voice From Within My Head Seemed To Speak. Look Behind You, John, It Said.Immediately I Turned Around And Saw Gideon And Marla. Dont Be Afraid, My Friend, Said Gideon,Youre Experiencing Whats Called An Out-of-body Situation. Your Body Is This State Were Able To Travel Farther And Faster And, Of Course, More Efficiently Than If Youre In The Physical Body.Still A Bit Unsure, I Asked Gideon, Are You Really Sure Its Safe To Be Out Of My Body Like This? I Mean, Isnt There A Danger I Might Not Be Able To Get Back To It?Not At All, John. Youre Perfectly Safe. As A Rule, Most People Do This During Their Sleep. However, Most Dont Remember It When They Wake Up In The Morning.Whats The Point Then? Why Am I Doing It?To Read The Rest Of The Story Visit Http:www.spiritual-simplicity.com
