I'm Sorry I Died

 

Sherm784 submitted a story a couple of days ago that made me want to share my experience.

Close friends and family, as well as those friends I have made on Facebook, know Paul Walker was my favorite actor and his death was devastating to me. It left a hole in me, as if I lost a very dear and close friend. (Just so y'all know, I liked him long before the Fast and Furious movies came out πŸ˜‰). There was just something about him that made me feel as if he would be a wonderful person to know. To me, he had a such a beautiful soul.πŸ˜‡

After his death, I would cry every time I would see his face or hear something that reminded me of him. I couldn't watch the Fast and Furious movies again (and I own all but Fate of the Furious) because my grief over his death was too overwhelming 😭 (I still haven't.)

On September 27, 2016, I had a dream about Paul. He told me he was sorry he died. And he was sorry his friend was driving and not him. It wasn't like he was unhappy or even sad that he was dead because he glowed with peace and happiness. It was more of an apology for dying, if that makes sense.

When I woke from that dream, I could still feel Paul's peace and happiness and it left me in such an amazing mood. The peace I was given is so hard to put into words. I was touched and humbled that he came to me to try and make me feel better about his death.

I didn't realize at the time, but the date I had the dream was two weeks after Paul's birthday: September 12th.

I've never been contacted by a celebrity. I know other people who have and before this happened, I admit that I was a bit skeptical. But no longer.

SWS - thank you for your kinds words 😊 I know without Paul's visit, I would still be unable to watch his movies. Now I can watch them and enjoy them, with a couple exceptions that I have to prepare myself for. I either leave the room or at least cover my ears and shut my eyes 😒

Hi Miracles,

I just read your post and felt for you.

I loved fast and furious too. Paul was such a good looking talented young man who was taken from us way too early.

You are so privileged he came to you.

I hope you're eased a little now knowing he's okay.

Thanks for sharing this.

Best wishes ❀ 😘 ❀

Haven - thank you so much for wanting to share this with your daughter. I hope it gives her a little bit of the peace it brought me ❀ I still have a hard time watching a couple scenes in the Fast and Furious movies, but after his visit, I'm definitely better than I was.

I'm glad you commented on this because there is something I want to share. On one of the Facebook pages dedicated to Paul, another woman mentioned a dream she had and it was very similar to mine 😊

Miracles -

My oldest daughter is also a big fan of Paul Walker and was so heart-broken with his death. Till this day, she will cry when she talks about him. I am going to share this with her, I am sure she will be happy to know you saw/sensed he had peace and happiness.

Thanks for sharing.

Rex - thank you for reading this and leaving a comment 😊 I value this experience so much, for different reasons. One being that Paul Walker (OMG! ❀) came to me and gave me peace. That still leaves me stunned when I think about it 😲

Something hit me as I was typing this. Ever since I was first introduced to Paul Walker (Pleasantville), I have wanted to meet him. And I finally did ❀ Never in life would I have been able to meet him so I am blessed that, for whatever reason, he came to me 😊

Miracles,

Like a lot of other people, I only remember Paul from the 'Fast and Furious' movies and reading about him working with his charity in Chile and Haiti earthquakes. To become the adopted brother of Vin Diesel, 'Pablo' must have been a 'cool dude'. To catch, tag and release great white sharks in the name of science - wow - I wish I could have met him! You were truly honoured with a visit.

I agree that we all have dreams (that are usually forgotten by the morning) but every now and then there are 'those special dreams' that one cannot ignore or forget. Yours was a visitation by a great individual and mine was a glimpse of the immediate future. What I found remarkable was the unexpected reaction by my sceptical surfing buddies to my experience. There was no ridicule; they all admitted that they also had similar experiences of DΓ©jΓ  Vu.

Likewise, I wish that I could have read your experience sooner but maybe not. At the time that this was published on YGS, I was physically in hospital and spiritually on another plain. I doubt if my comments (at that time) would have made sense!

Regards
Rex-T

notjustme - I am so very grateful for that visit and yes, I'm a July baby LOL. Big Blue will be 4 in February❀

As for your spidey senses, we don't see much of my daughter (Big Blue lives with me) but a few months ago I dreamed she was pregnant so maybe you're on to something. I'll let you know if and when I find out πŸ˜† Great seeing you again 😊

Ah...this answers my own question about whether it was possible to get visits from celebs 😊 Great story Miracles... The celebrities you think would be cool to know are the similar to me too! Are you a July baby by any chance? Hehe I trust big blue must really be getting quite big, almost 4? If my spider senses work at all... Is big blue going to be a big brother soon? πŸ€”

babygoatpuller - there are so many things that I try not to see or hear about and the details of Paul's death is one of the biggest. I guess I was so worried about how he died, that maybe it influenced my emotions about his death πŸ˜• The relief he gave me by letting me know he was okay and he was happy is almost therapeutic. I can watch his movies now and enjoy them without breaking down into tears just thinking about them. He did something so wonderful for me ❀

I'm glad you felt that with your mom, thank you ❀

sherm784 - you are welcome and thank you for sharing yours. I may not ever have shared this if it hadn't been for reading your experience.

I also think it is very interesting that he appeared to me, a woman who felt a connection to him but never met him.

As a side note, I can't watch Eight Below. I made it through that movie once, and as much as I loved it, I will never be able to watch it again. That movie was so freaking sad 😭

It's amazing how many people love the FF movies! 😁

Spiritual_Paganist - thank you for your comments 😊 Because I know there are so many of Paul's fans that are heartbroken over his death, I posted my dream on Facebook, hoping I could help someone else. I don't know if I did or not, but I wanted others to know what Paul told me and how that message made me feel.

Funny thing is I never dreamed about him before this, so I agree with you that it wasn't due to my obsession (sounds almost stalkerish) πŸ˜†

PBandJilly - I love your profile name πŸ˜† Yes, you explained it very well, thank you! And I am glad you experienced it with both grandfathers ❀ I've only once before felt something similar, but it didn't compare to the peace I was given. But that peace was meant for someone else, and this time was for me ❀

Zaruje - I could accept your explanation if Paul's visit had happened the year after his death, or even two years. But it was three years and at this point, although I was still grieving, it wasn't consuming me every day.

And I do believe he is in a better place. His aura was bright white, almost like he was glowing. I don't see auras in real life (wish I could) but Paul's was unmistakable.

Thank you to the little bit of knowledge I have of auras, and with the help of Google to make sure I was right, white auras mean: "Reflects other energy. A pure state of light. Often represents a new, not yet designated energy in the aura.Spiritual, etheric and non-physical qualities, transcendent, higher dimensions. Purity and truth; angelic qualities... These colors are important and are a good sign."

Melda - yes I do believe in reincarnation (story for another site LOL), much to my family's dismay πŸ˜‰

I like your thought that maybe we knew each other in a different lifetime. It could explain why my heart hurt like it did. Thank you for that ❀

And don't worry about the comment to Sherm on here. I don't mind at all 😊

ladycastlemaine - thank you 😊 I needed the peace he gave me. I know to a lot of people my reaction to his death is ridiculous considering I didn't personally know him but it's something I cannot explain. But I do like your in tune and beacon explanation.

Please, if you haven't, submit your story. I would love to read it ❀

Finally catching up:

Val - I like signs too. Big blaring ones with flashing lights πŸ’₯ Your brother sounds so much like some of my family LOL Ghost could walk right up and smack 'em in the face and they'd say it was a bug πŸ˜† It's really a shame, though, that your brother missed out on something so wonderful ❀

Miracles - Sorry, the comment I made to Sherm was actually meant to go to her story.

A bit of confusion there, I've been following the comments on your submission and hers. Damn, I was of the opinion that at my age my mind was more agile than my body - now I'm left wondering...

Miracles-

I know that feeling of peace and happiness well. I had it with the dream about my mom. It gives you such a feeling of absolute conviction about knowing that they are alright and dispels any doubts about their well being.

Paul Walker not only let you know that he was sorry that he died, but imparted to you that he was also in a good place.

It's something that you carry with you always and makes you happy thinking about it. 😊

Sherm - Well there you have a very broad spectrum of opinions, taking your experience and Miracles's experience into account.

I totally believe that what you experienced actually happened. Was it Chester? I don't know. What you experienced and what she experienced is very different. Hers was a dream, yours was a voice.

I'm inclined to stick with my original opinion. However, you are the one who experienced it, so go with your gut feeling.

What's interesting is that you never had any connection to Paul in life, just one of the millions of us who love those movies.

this can happen, very rare, paul walker must be really passionate about his fans, and to be able to feel his peaceful energy and vibe shows its possibly a real encounter, he must have been visiting fans who mourned over his death, your lucky to have gotten him, if there are skeptics of this being overactive thinking/ delusion, ways to indicate delusion would be seeing him out of the corner of your eye or a true obsession over him that will affect your concious mental state allowing the subconscious to emerge and play mind games with you. When it comes to the visitation of a entity through a dream or appearing, feeling the energy and have that stay with you indicates its real, when on the other hand if it was over active thinking this would be constant, over and over, again a obsession of your own thoughts from the subconscious emerging to concious.
Sorry for that long rant, just a explination XD

Hello miracles!

It's not that I don't believe your story, it's just that maybe paul appeared in your dream because you were thinking of him more often and your subconscious mind created a paul walker in your dream to ease you up.

Or maybe paul was really trying to connect with you by appearing in your dream. We do hope that Paul Walker is now in a better place.

Thank you for your story!

Miracles,

I know that exact feeling of peace you are speaking of. I've had dreams of two different grandfathers visiting me after they passed and with each one, that sense of overwhelming and all-encompassing peace was there. And you're absolutely right, it is so intense and evident, it can still be felt long after we awaken from the dream. It truly is an amazing feeling. It's almost a mix between a euphoria and the most serene calm you could ever imagine and it's infinite. If that makes sense. Thank you for sharing this with us!

Love and light,
PB n Jilly

Miracles - If you believe in reincarnation, do you think it is possible that you had a connection with Paul Walker in a previous existence?

I don't want to open a can of worms here. I'm more inclined towards reincarnation than against it, because of repetitive dreams I've had of people I know I haven't met in this life. They aren't repetitive dreams but the people are the same.

I would be interested to know if you have ever looked at it from that angle.

I am glad that you got a sense of peace from him; that sounds really nice. I guess if you're in tune with someone, they can come through when they've died. As if they can spot fans who are a beacon for their spirit... If that makes sense.

I have a similar story about what I think could be a celebrity visitation. I've never been one to believe in these, after meeting several dodgy 'psychics', so I've rarely shared it with anyone, for fear of ridicule. But I might submit mine as soon as the submissions box is open again!

It's like 'signs', Miracles. Some folks just do not get it. I'll give you an example of what I mean; Once my mother (a non-celeb πŸ˜‰) had been diagnosed as terminal and had accepted that, she took to telling us kids, "After I'm gone, if you feel someone pat your shoulder and nobody's there, don't be scared. It's just me saying 'hi'." I think I'm the only one who listened.
One day, maybe 2 years after she passed, my baby brother and I were talking, he'd been very close with our mom. So close that her death prompted a suicide attempt, it really did a number on him. Anyway, he was telling me how he thought ghosts and stuff like that was a load, because he'd never gotten so much as a single sign from Mom.
Now, I have to say I could sense our Mom's presence, happy that a couple of her kids were together, and I felt she was behind my brother. I noticed he kept looking back over his shoulder every few minutes. He muttered something about a 'damn muscle twinge', and I asked him what it felt like. (I know 'spook talk' makes him uneasy, so proceed with caution.) He says, "like someone is patting my shoulder." πŸ˜• Seriously. He did not get the connection at all! Even after I reminded him of what Mom had said, he still looked at me all weird. Eh - he thinks I'm a bit 'scary', but he loves me anyway. Lol
My point is, even though he KNEW he denied it. I think lots are that way.

val - exactly! I could have written this off as my emotions carrying over into my dreams but it's not like I had been thinking of him or watched one of his movies.

The feel of this dream was as different from one of my "normal" dreams as my prophetic ones. There is a big difference.

And I think you're right about celebrity visits being more common than we think. I have a friend who told me Elvis visited her. I have no reason not to believe her.

Miracles,
I wonder if maybe celebrity visitations are more common then we think? Most 'fans' would have written off that dream as just a dream, we both know that. Just like we both know that normal 'dreams' have a different 'feel' then prophetic, or visiting 'dreams', we also know many don't understand the difference. To them a dream is just a dream - ALWAYS. πŸ€”
