What is your worst nightmare? When you watch a train speed into the platform, has your brain ever—despite all logic—succumbed to its innate love for drama? Out of nowhere, your imagined body is tumbling hopelessly through the air and into the incoming train.
That thought alone is enough to send a chill down anybody’s spine. Yet what if it actually happened? What if it was meant to be and rather than break you down, it opens new doors and brings out the best in you?
Predestined Fate
In the years leading up to his near-death experience, David Ditchfield was dragging his way through life.
“Life was a bit of an uphill struggle. I’d been living in London hoping to make something of [life] because I left school without any qualifications—I’m dyslexic. In all fairness, I think I was just trying to push on all the wrong doors that weren’t meant for me,” he said.
One day, on his way to visit his sister’s family, Ditchfield met an elderly couple looking for directions. After he helped them, the lady handed Ditchfield a flyer for a seance and welcomed him to join.
Never a spiritual person, Ditchfield shrugged off the invite without a second thought. Yet, later that night, while nursing a beer in the pub after escaping from the chaos of his sister’s kids, he fished out the leaflet and decided, “I’m going to go.”
Inside the packed venue, an animated medium was walking down the aisle calling out messages from the beyond when she abruptly stopped in her tracks—energy shifting as she turned toward him.
“Your life is going to change,” she said. “They’re not telling me what but just for you to be prepared. It’s going to be very big but you’ll be protected.”
