Stroke, LSD - Same Thing

[create_destiny]

I heard a fascinating interview on NPR today with a neurological researcher named Jill Bolte Taylor whose book My Stroke of Insight came out in paperback today. This video is from a talk Taylor gave a year ago about what she experienced while having a stroke.

I don't think it can be "chosen" very easily without illicit substances or a hit to the head.

But seriously, she spoke of something I experience a lot--I can only call it the state of "in between." I've commented on your blog before that I have very lucid dreams and I sometimes feel that I go somewhere beyond life and living in some of my dreams. My dreams make me believe very much in an after life and God or god or dog. ;-)

I think there is something more to us as humans than we realize.

God, I hope so.
