A presentiment Have you ever experienced a presentiment or prevision? Do you believe things like these? I don’t know if I believe them. I’m not sure. Though, I have to say what curious things happen… It was unusual, the story I’d like to tell you. I have a night job, so I finish my work early in the morning. I usually very tired and sleepy at this time, and the only thing I want is to get home as soon as possible. There was nothing special in that morning. I finished work, said goodbye to day shift and got the bus stop across the street. I was standing there, waiting for a bus and thinking of hot meal and warm bed. It was cold enough or, may be just my jacket didn’t suit to this sort of weather. Ok. My bus arrived at last, but I didn’t get it on. You’ve got to understand what I really wanted to go home by that bus, but I didn’t. I don’t know why. Something kept me from that. I was just standing and looking at the bus and other people that were getting it on. I didn’t move. I was like frozen in some strange way. So, the bus left without me and I went home on the next one in about 20 minutes. Then I saw a traffic accident through a bus window. I didn’t see injured people. Only curved metal, broken glass and pools of blood on the road. It didn’t look like a horrible disaster. Not really. But anyway blood on the road meant pain and hurts. And yes… It was the same bus that I missed out with no obvious reason. This story took place last week, but I think of it till now. I don’t know what it was. One of my friends says insomnia turns off a human consciousness, so a person starts to perceive the world by ancient instincts and intuition of beasts. Is it true? I don’t know. Just… Curious things happen with common people from time to time.
