Future Premonition and Manifestation of Physical Objects - What's Going On?

Question

I'm sure that everyone experiences a sense of future premonition to some degree, but I'm getting a bit concerned with what's been happening to me lately. I've always been able to sense what song will be playing next on the radio... I think about a song and the next song or two is that specific song... but always in an after the fact way. Now I can "know" in effect what the song will be and I can "announce" it. But two things have happened recently that have freaked me out. A week ago I went to the grocery store, got what I needed and left. On the way home I realized I had forgotten to pick up a tomato. Then on the very next street I turned onto after realizing this, laying in the middle of the road was a huge ripe tomato. The other day I was shopping with my family and thinking about the last time I had attended an Orioles game. Pulling into a parking space laying right of me was a baseball, a commemorative like-new ball from the 1993 All-Star game at Camden Yards. WHAT'S GOING ON?!?

Answer 1

The real question is, "Did you eat the mystery tomato?"  If it was lying in the street it probably violated the 10 second rule.

Answer 2

You listen to a station that plays the top hits, you think of a top hit and then you happen to hear a top hit.

You think about a very common fruit, you happen to see that fruit.

You were thinking about a very common game and then you happened to see a piece of equipment from a very common game.

What is going on? You are putting two and two together and coming up with five. Sorry, real life is kinda dull and not at all magical.

Answer 3

I tend to agree with Jonquill on this one, that you're putting a lot together that wouldn't normally go together, and it doesn't necessarily make sense to put them together in the ways you have.

However, I disagree that life lacks anything magical... I personally find magic in all kinds of things, from the shapes of trees and the beauty of sunsets to the normal experience of simply living and interacting. Life is itself magical, and its presence has been neither explained fully nor disproved.

There is a possibility that you've got a mild precognitive "thing" going on. There is actually kind of an interesting idea in quantum physics that could account for some kinds of precognition, and my guess is (assuming these could be possible, which has been neither proved nor disproved) that instead of actually manifesting objects, what's happening is that you're predicting their occurrence and thinking about them, rather than actually making them occur.

For more on the quantum physics idea, let me refer to John Walker, the founder of Autodesk (who makes engineering software), and his idea about what could be happening.

Answer 4

This radio thing has happened to me before. I was tape recording a song i want. I was listening to the radio and as I recorded my voice of what song it came out about 3 seconds after I said it. It doesnt happen often to me though. The tomato part is weird and a little funny. I think that could be manifestation. I think mind was kickin in yesterday. But I dont know. I wanted my mom to get something for me and she got the right about i thought she would get(and what I wanted)... and we had a filter on our sink that my mom and sister couldnt get off and I think that I could get it off and I did. But sometimes, I think im just good with my hands.
