Empathic Moment

Yesterday I had a cool and sort of validating experience with being empathic. I never considered myself to be an empath or anything, and I don't really know how to turn my subtle senses on and off. I think everyone has psychic abilities, though. Anyway, I was at a concert with my best friend and I was pretty sleep-deprived and felt as though I was functioning on a different plane of existence than everyone else.

Not even looking at her, I turn to her and say in her ear, "I know what you're thinking". She just started grinning when I said that, and she didn't even have to ask "oh, really? or "what's that?" because she knew what I was talking about. It was only for a moment...out of nowhere, I actually *felt* what she was feeling and I just knew what she was thinking at that moment. It was like an a.d.d. moment on her part during the show, so it's not like she was dwelling on it all night. It was weird. I guess it's hard to explain the intensity of it, but it definitely shook both of us. There's something strange about her and I. It's like when we are together, something strange happens to the universe. I don't even think it's possible that anyone else has that kind of connection with anyone else.  I mean, we actually see the same ominous faces and distorted scenarios in bed sheet prints and patterns.  Haha.
