Do you "feel" things?

I was supposed to travel across the state to visit friends next weekend but I'm starting to think maybe I won't. Nothing is working out and it's making me feel like maybe I'm not meant to go. First my co-worker had to quit because the state took away her daycare assistance because she was making too much money so she chose to stay home with her kids and get the state assistance for food and rent instead. So, since I am now officially the only employee at my job I feel guilty asking for time off so I was going to have to go on Saturday and come back on Sunday. It's a 300 mile trip, one way. That's a really long weekend. Then I found out that Greyhound got rid of the bus schedule I usually take when I go to see my friends so the only way to get in any time with them and not miss work, was to leave Friday and get to my destination at 3 in the morning. I could get off the bus partway there at 9pm and stay with a different friend but she's not returning my calls (which 9 times out of 10 means she's avoiding telling me something she thinks I'm not going to want to hear). Each of these things by themselves seem small but all together they are adding up to a bad feeling that I'm not supposed to go. Do you have "feelings" (intuitions, premonitions, whatever you want to call it) - good or bad - about upcoming events? Do you trust those feelings? Tell me your story...

I have those feelings all the time. I trust them and go with them everytime. Everything happens for a reason, and their is a reason for those feelings to be coming, good or bad.

I have those too I just go with my gut feeling If something is going on maybe your friends don't want you to know about it.. somethings people just can't tell others. see how the next few days go.

These feelings may be the Creators way of preventing you from some terrible fate if you had pursued that same course. Fortunately, you lived to tell us about it. Many people don't take heed to the warning signs and plunge ahead on a destructive path sometimes fatal. But know that if you were saved from that , that there might be a higher purpose in life for you. Seek to find it. Your feelings may lead you to contentment of heart that you have never known before and earn you rewards from the Most High.

I've never had bad feelings about things, I have an indentical twin and we've felt things for each other over the years. Unless I find peace in a decision I won't make the final call.

I'm empathic, and I get stuff like this from time to time.. and if I don't trust my initial instincts, I usually soon end up discovering the negative reasons behind why I felt that way to begin with. I personally would schedule your trip at a different time...
