{BREAKTHROUGH}

Over the past year I've been experiencing some sort of sleep disorder of sorts. I've experienced it before, but this last year I've probably experienced it over 15 nights with multiple episodes a night on occasion. Basically I wake up & I can't move, I can't speak & I become terrified. It only lasts a few minutes at the most but there is the most terrifying feeling of an evil presence or something. I'm fully aware of my surroundings. I try with all my might to fight my way out of it, to scream & kick. But I just lay there with my heart pounding. Sort of how I would imagine what came over JS just before the first vision. My mother & brother have experienced these as well. My mother believes there really is a evil spirit or demon doing this to her when it happens. (I'll let her know when she gets home what I have found.) I have never believed this, nor has my brother & I just thought it had to be explained somehow. But I've never remembered to mentioned it to a Doctor. Well early this morning I had another episode & when I finally broke free of it I was pissed off enough to Google search it & do some research of my own. Guess what I found! Sleep Paralysis! Here are just a few of the links I found helpful...

There were many other helpful sites & also many many MANY other sights that try to convince the reader that this kind of thing really is caused by demons or aliens. LOL!! Here also is a great explanatory clip, it's 10 minutes long but if you have had this experience it's worth watching. The last minute or 2 goes into the whole lucid dreaming or out of body experience which I have no idea about nor do I want to. I will be trying to focus more on the tips I learned from the above sites listed to avoid having these experiences again though.

{Travel Log - Day 3 Palmyra, NY}

At 7:30 this morning we began our journey to Palmyra, NY. Our trip took us about 4+ hours during which we discussed the sights we were to see in Palmyra and catching a bit of shut eye on the way there. We stopped at the Whitmer Farm where we visited with the missionaries and walked around the grounds. We then continued our journey driving through Palmyra Village and the surrounding areas. From there we drove to the HIll Cumorah to visit the Hill, the Visitors Center and attended the famous Hill Cumorah Pageant. We visited the Monument at the top of the Hill first thing when we arrived and then ate a delicious BBQ chicken and salt potato dinner from the local vendors. SO GOOD!! "Moroni" came and spoke with me and my bro as we were relaxing. We had really good seats, 5 rows from the front. What a great production. The special effects were SO awesome! I thoroughly enjoyed every second of it.
