An "out of the body" experience

In 1987 I was living in a small home on a lake in West Palm Beach Florida. One night I had an "out of the Body" Experience. I remember what seemed like my "Spirit" lifting upward from my bed toward the ceiling. I remember being frightened, (terror) and looking down and seeing my body in bed. In my mind, I kept screaming "Jesus, Jesus." I had expected when I yelled that name I would have returned back down, but I didn't return immediately as I had expected, finally I slowed and then returned to my bed. I had thought it was "Spiritual" until a few days later. My neighbor was a retired AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLER". I had gone into their house to visit and the wife seemed "frightened" of me, at least it seemed that way. He brought the subject up and asked her to tell me. Turns out, that same night she had seen a UFO over the lake, directly behind my home. This was brought to a head in October of 1987. (Prior to the out of the body experience). I was on a flight to Florida and had been upgraded to First Class. I sat next to a man in uniform, but had not paid much attention to him at first. I was looking out the window and saw something. I jumped and quickly turned my head to see if I could see it out the other window on the other side of the plane.He asked me what I saw and I noticed his uniform again. I had wanted to prove my thought wrong about all this, so I told him what I thought I had just seen. He asked me if I had ever seen anything like that before and I told him yes. Thinking he would straighten me out. I told him the whole story. He suggested that I write it down or report it. I asked him if he had ever seen one. He said that he had and had chased one over the skies of New England for about an hour until he was running low on fuel. That really made me think. It has taken me till now to Report it.
