This is for BRYAN and SKARPZ. No snide comments from the peanut gallery, please. Unless you have something valuable to add to the conversation that isn't rude or condescending. Otherwise, go bother somebody who cares about your opinion.
Bryan, the reason I asked about the cat is because I've had cats all my life and I know they can teleport. Call me crazy if you want, but I've seen them do it. Many times. Two of my current ones even attempted to play a prank on me with it. (YES, animals have a sense of humour! And can feel emotions such as spite, jealousy, etc. Don't let anyone tell you differently. My friend's cat hates her sister. Every time the sister comes over, the cat pees on her coat. The cat never pees on anyone else's coat. Just the sister's. Lol. he obviously knows just what he's doing, who he's doing it to, and why.) And anyone who has had cats or knows anything about cats (or any animal other than humans, really) knows of their highly psychic nature. They can see things and pick up on things most humans could never dream of. I also know a Native American woman who says her kittens can astral project. I'm sure they can. All of these things are things we were all born able to do, we've just forgotten how..and/or society has squashed it out of us. Animals are still pure and don't have those kinds of limitations. So if they can teleport (and no one is going to convince me otherwise. I know what I've seen with my own eyes and others have confirmed seeing it too), and they can astral project (which I don't doubt)..then why shouldn't they be able to time travel? I believe they can. And IF your cat (I realize now that you are saying this was a long time ago and has happened since and you are grown now. I didn't notice that before..but maybe when you still had that cat...or if you've had other pets with you the other times) was with you when you jumped, I wouldn't worry about anything like jumping too far and not getting back, etc. A) Your pet would never do anything to put you in any kind of danger, and B) They know what they're doing. They're not new to this. I'm not sure why you jumped with her. Maybe she didn't realize you were. Maybe she thought it would be fun to take you along for the ride and thought you'd enjoy it. I don't think it would occur to them that it would scare you as they don't find any of it frightening.
I find it interesting that both Bryan and Skarpz talk of moving in dimensions or in time on their own, without needing machines or anything. I've always thought it would be that way. Kind of more like just teleporting through time. Humans always have to make everything so complicated. If you ever read a book called "A Swiftly Tilting Planet by Madeleine L'Engle (it's part of the time quartet, although that name, and the title of the first book "A Wrinkle In Time" are misleading. They don't actually do any time travelling [more space travel and some other stuff. Still really good stories though. ] until the third book [Planet] and then again in one called Many Waters and a later one about the daughter of two of the original characters. There's an animal in it [I won't say what kind 'cause then you might not read it] who constantly gets frustrated about how humans don't understand such simple things as how "we are going to a when, not a where. It's the same where, just a different when." No machines in these books. But still plenty of science. But also spiritual things. And that's how I believe these things work. You can't have one without the other and expect anything to come of it. Hence my signature.) Although I wouldn't like the lack of control you guys are talking about where it just randomly happens without you knowing when, where, or why, and there's nothing you can do about it. Reminds me of "The Time Travelers Wife". Worst time travel story ever! He has seizures and gets transported to different points in his life uncontrollably and never knows when or why. I don't know where they came up with that one. Although..it kind of makes me wonder...I have a history of seizures..when I wake I never have any idea what's going on...I lose huge chunks of time and people later tell me of things that supposedly happened in the past that I don't remember..or they remember them completely differently than I do. Hmm..maybe I'm a time traveller after all! (or maybe people are just old and have bad or selective memories, lol. they seem to remember me doing bad things I never did and claim not to "remember" bad things they did to me, but also places I don't remember going [although sometimes I vaguely remember it later], or saying they were with me when this or that happened or so-and-so said that thing when I KNOW they were not with me at these times and places. Of course the main person saying the latter had a t.i.a. about a year ago, so maybe it's them that's mixed up and not me.)
I'm thinking maybe you guys have abilities you just aren't completely aware of yet that you just need to hone and then maybe you could control it. I'm not sure quite how (if I did, I'd have been a millionaire a long time ago 'cause I have what I call a "useless" psychic ability. I'll talk about some episode of a tv show, and then that one comes on. And I think," how come when I talk about being rich, I don't get any money?" Lol. I have tried it with intention with films I wanted to see and songs on the radio or music videos and it worked..but I still haven't figured out how to make my millions come to me just by thinking they will.
), but I guess meditation would be a good place to start. Maybe you could try intentionally going somewhere...or rather...when, Bryan. Skarpz, I don't know if you should try that. The whole parallel dimensions thing is weird to me so I'm not going to give any suggestions about it. I don't necessarily believe in it. (Not saying I don't believe your sincerity. If you say it's happened to you, who am I to say otherwise?) I believe it's possible as anything is possible. Although yours makes more sense to me than other theories as you don't seem to be saying that there are a bunch of other "yous" out there. You don't mention having run into alternate versions of yourself or anything. That whole idea creeps me out, that there'd be a bunch of other me's that are me..and yet aren't me and some might even be evil and such. *shudder*
However, there is this thing called "quantum jumping". It's supposedly where you meet your alternate selves (on purpose) and they talk to you and help you out with your life. Like, say, for instance, you wanted to start your own ..I don't know..I'll pick something random..culinary school. That supposedly there's another you out there who has already done that and you meet them and they help you do it too. Sounds a little out there to me, but then again..I'm sure many of the things I say sound pretty "out there" to others too, so I don't judge. And if it helps somebody, then, what should it matter what I or anybody else thinks? It's all guided and everything so I don't suppose there's any danger. I really don't know. You have to pay for it though. I forget how much. But you can do the program online. You don't have to travel anywhere. Whether it's legitimate or not, that I can't tell you. My take on it is, they call it alternate selves from parallel worlds, but it's probably really just different aspects of yourself and your subconscious brought to the surface for problem-solving. Although they did send out one email saying that it's been proven that parallel universes exist. I haven't read it yet, so Idk what they're saying or if that's true.
What I like about what both of you seem to be saying is that time travel and parallel universes are two separate things. ( I think that you're saying that?) I don't understand that whole concept of "scientists" saying that time travel would create a parallel universe. I also don't see how someone who calls himself a scientist can believe in parallel universes and not time travel. Like I said, I'm not denying that parallel universes could exist..but they certainly are a weirder theory than time travel. And scarier too. If we travel through time into the past, we already know what's there. If we travel only into the near future, it shouldn't (hopefully), be all that different. If you go popping around dimensions that could be nothing like ours, you never know what you might encounter. Ever watch Sliders? I don't know about you guys, but I sure wouldn't want to wind up on some world where everyone is diseased 'cause they never heard of antibiotics, or in a world where Nazis too over the U.S....and then get stuck there no less!
Although Skarpz doesn't seem to be saying that's the type of thing that's happening to him. Just minor changes. Although I have seen you talk about time travellers in other posts, so you've got me a bit confused on which you're talking about when and if they have anything to do with each other.
