It was a very quiet evening when I decided to sit in my living room for a while and meditate. There were a lot things that was on my mind and I needed to relax. I must have been meditating for about an hour when a mice crawled his way upon the sofa's arm. I was so still and quiet that the mouse do not realize that I was sitting on the sofa as he approached the top. It was at that time that I understood how someone came up with the concept of the "Tom and Jerry" mouse cartoon. That person had to actually observe the character of a mouse to actually come up with their reactions. Well when the mouse saw me and I saw him. we both jumped in shock and he jumped down and ran in the same direction from which he came.

So after that surprising episode, I returned to my meditating. I knew I had to keep my eyes open for any of the other little creatures that might sneak up on me, because being so quiet they would not know that I will be sitting here. My living room and dining room is parallel to each other and while I was mediating the living room light was off and the dining room light was on. While I sat in the dim living room. looking into the lit dining room. I observed a short black man, about three feet tall, he wore a plaid blue short with dark shorts. I could not remember if he were wearing any shoes. He came walking from near my basement door and preceded toward the facing wall as if he was going to walk right though the wall. until he got halfway the towards the wall, when he looked into the living room and saw me sitting on the sofa. He then looked in amazement and turned and ran back towards the basement door. I didn't feel scared at that moment when I saw him, so after he ran, I went to the basement door and looked down the stairs to see if I could see him running, but when I got to the basement he had already disappeared.

I have told this story to my family and friends, but I guess that think that I was just seeing things, but I realized that it was a spirit in the flesh and he didn't expect me to caught him walking through my dining room.
