Odd childhood habit

[Darkflame]

Some of my earliest memories as a child are of me laying on my bed, looking up at the lights, and attempting to somehow 'absorb' the light energy.

I did this quite alot as I remember it, I was wondering if anyone else has either had or heard of similar habits, or if it was just me, or generally just if there's a reason behind it.

Thanks

I used to play with a light I could see when I closed my eyes. It was a blue ball which I could throw around in my head. Sounds peculiar but I saw it clear as day.

I abSOlutely love the sun rays.It embraces you so much.It listens to you while it lets you listen to them at the same time.

I used to "zone out". I think I used that as a defense mechanism in times of great stress. I still do sometimes. My second grade teacher told my mom that I loved to stare out the window. She said, "I don't know what she sees out there, but it must be something pretty nice, because I can't seem to get her to pay attention to what's going on in here." I don't remember what I was looking at out that window.

I have a habit now of looking to the side of people that I'm talking to, I don't even realize that I'm doing it. It's reached the point where one person asked me, "What do you see over there, is there a mouse, or something." I don't physically see anything, I sense another presence that distracts me. Who or what that is, I'm not sure.

Well, since you asked, there it is !

I used to have the best time playing with the oddest things...I had all these toys but I remember loving to play with my polished rocks and my pens. Each rock and pen had it's own personality and everything.

I still love pens and polished rocks.

About a year after my tonsil operation when I was 7, I was fascinated by staring directly into the sun and into lights... After a while I did damage my eyes and I often need corrective lenses, though I dont wear them for photos... but, when I first started to do this weird things would happen which freaked me out... inside the lights there were colors floating around, and sometimes the colors of light like orbs floating towards me from out of the bulb or sun, and they would come right up close to me, pratically sitting on my nose, and follow me wherever I went, when I was little this scared me big time, and my parents often had to calm me down coz I would scream hysterically, weirdly the lights only went if I hid in darkness, closed my eyes for 15 minutes or another person came into the room with me.
I started to think that whatever was in the colored orbs of light, were teaching me that its rude to stare, hehe, because whenever I stared into the lights they would come near to me and I felt they were staring at me, as if to say, now how do you feel? haha. mad as it sounds.
Did this happen to you, Darkflame?

i remember i used to stare into the sky for hours, looking for ufo's.
staring into the sky just, staring into the sky, and it would start turning purple
i used to ask my mom when i was a child what color the sky was when i went to bed, and i used to sleep with the blankets over me.
i also used to meditate lotus when iwas really young
sit under ablanket and time travel
and sit inside of small areas and visit space

i remember being sure that everything was light and there was a bowl with a big round cutout and lots of pinpricks that passed over to create the dark...but just enough light would show thru that i knew it was still there

i used to have to sleep with the lights on bc i can hear EVERYTHING in my house at night and staring at it and zoning out was the only thing that would put me to sleep...my mom would often come in to turn it off and it would wake me if i were out, or i'd still be up staring at it. even now, which, now i sleep in pure darkness, i see this speckly sandy crap whenever its dark, which i think is a normal eye particley thing but it scared me back then. and for the longest time my mom wouldnt let me do my homework by windows bc i would stare into the clouds for HOURS instead of doing anything else...she'd yell at me for sneaking out in the middle of the night just to stare at the sky... i never sleep...i just stare at things and zone out...

When I was younger, I remember seeing a green daughnut shaped object that would materialize and shift to the right and disappear. I liked trying to control it.

Nowadays when I shut my eyes I see a single white dot in the center of my range of vision, which disappears quickly, before more subsequently appear in random positions against the orange or black background.

well i cant remember doing anything odd when i was a kid but my parents clearly remembered me doing odd things like kissing my mom's feet, amongst other things. lol. and that i was always soo full of life,sooo mischevious and that i was a spoiled brat (according to my older sister, heh heh). but somehow, odd things used to happen alot in our old house when i was young, weird freaky paranormal stuff, and apparently my older sister got afflicted and posessed once. eeek!

I sometimes stare at the sun(It realy doesn't hurt my eyes)and feel like I want to merge with it.I think It's quite common

[Sonia]

YES! well..sort of lol. My sister and I have the same chandelier in our rooms. It's a large, frosted square with curved designs etched into it. I would lie on my bed tracing the designs with my eyes over and over in my head. I'm not sure how long I did this for or if I ever wished to absorb the light though.

I loved to lay on my back on the moist grass, on hot summer days and look up towards the sky and stare at the clouds and see what shapes they formed. I loved sleeping on the floor and still do.

[spiral]

i still do this before sleep lol
from my bedroom window i can always find orion and i have always loved that constellation. I HAVE to see it at night

[AngeliqueBlood]

eversence i was little i have played with my energy or aura as some like to put it. i would rub my hands together and pull the energy and let it flux in and out. i can't remember ever not doing it. i remember when i was three or four my dad came in my room and saw me messing with my hands in a "weird" way as he put it, but thankfully my mom knew what i was doing, playing with energy.

When I was 13, I had an imaginary friend that started showing up everywhere. She always kept me company when I was lonely and talked to me. Other kids made fun of me, but she always liked me as I was. I swear there were moments when she was so real when i could see her clear as day. She would move real fast sometimes and other times, she would sit still but I could see the sun rays outlining the shape of her.

When I was five years old I had a imaginary friend named Michealangelo. My sister tells me I would stay up talking to him all night long. It really freaked her out. I remember he had long flowing golden hair and he was very loving. I also remember how at a young age I would stare at light and try to absorb it too. I remember I couldnt understand why my door wouldnt open with me just looking at it. It just didnt make sence how if I thought about something enough it wouldnt happen.

wow i did that all the time. i still do it too. its really neat becasue if you hold your hand close to the bolb you can feel the energy being obsorbed into your hand and it tingles and you can put it into your other hand. its weird but i used to always do that when i was little too.

[Angi]

Did it then and still do it often. I've seen the animals around here react to it too. At one point I missed the energy ball when it came back down from a toss and my dog scooted out of it's way (from a dead sleep!).

Hugs and Blessed be
