I saw one of my friends standing in the doorway to my house.
At the time he'd been dead for at least five years. Blew his brains out. Poor guy.
I also saw a man that I never met sitting in the living room of that same house. When he saw me he jumped up like I had startled him and ran towards the back of the house. But there was no sound to his running. You'd think a man, well over six feet tall, would make some kind of some. Any sound.
I felt one of my friends flatline in another state. I loved him like a brother, still do though it's been years since I've seen him. I didn't know that he was dead or dying at the time. I just had a very strong feeling that he was going away, forever, and I would never see him smile again. Never feel him hug me. Never hear about how his life is going lately.
I cried and begged him not to go. I don't recall how long I cried or pleaded for it not to be true, that he would be gone. But eventually, a sense of calm settled over me. He was going to stay. I fell asleep.
A few months later I heard about him flatlining that night in the hospital. I'm glad he decided to stay. He's living near me right now. I've never told him about that night.

That's about it when it comes to ghosts. I think there are one or two more that are buried in the vault somewhere and they can sit and gather dust for all I care!
Ghosts, apparitions, 'intuition', I'd rather it didn't come to me. I wish, sometimes that the gods had bestowed their 'gifts' on someone else.
