Mysterious experiences!

[MarkusSweden]

One time I was out playing with a friend, I was about 8 years of age. This was wintertime, late afternoon, but already dark outside, all stars was shining bright and clear. It was as if time stood still, just me and my friend in our magical adventurous bubble. 

We were building a cave in the snow. The play had such an importance to us. So much creativity and seriousness(in a good way) poured into the cave that we build.

Totally absorbed in the game, yet I was totally detached also, I was full of mysterious presence. Like if I was in contact with the presence of other galaxies and dimensions. A devine experience. 

I think the darkness outside with all the stars helped me to feel this way. Me and my friend were all alone in the area where we played, which added to the adventurous feeling.

My parents house was just 100m away, but it felt like that belonged to another universe or something. I was overwhelmed with this positive mysterious feeling/experience. 

I had many experiences of this kind as a child. Very rich and profound experiences of the mystical nature of reality. 

The reason I tell you about this particular anecdote above is that I found it strange that my friend didn't tune in to the divine mysteriousness, that I experienced that afternoon winter day.  

My friend was just as absorbed in our play as I was,  great chemistry between us, but he didn't experience any of these mysterious and magical qualities of reality. 

Imagine.., being 8 years of age, playing with your best friend, time has collapsed due to the presence of the adventurous game you play, stars are shining down on you, so peaceful and quiet, yet so alive.. 

..I mean, if you don't find life mysterious under these circumstances, you never will. 

It seem like many, if not most people go through life without these experiences though! What do you think?

Is it a rare thing to be exposed for this highly satisfactory experiences/feelings? 

Does it require you to be sensitive to have those? 

I'm very sensitive, and I remember Leo told us once he is too. And many people seem to be highly sensitive persons here.

Maybe that's a good thing when it comes to capabilities of these types of experiences? Or maybe it hasn't anything to do with that?
