            This has often turned out to be correct, strange as it may seem. Meaningful brevity Salvia.

              There is a saying “gut feeling.” It is a mystery; it cannot be explained. We don’t even know precisely where it occurs; however, we call it “gut feeling.” It comes from some mysterious part of us, some place we cannot precisely point out. But, it definitely occurs. It can and does overrule the brain sometimes. Thus, we might listen to that gut order and bypass our brain, though the brain churns through a lot of past experiences to give us, most of the time, the safest option. But, we still overrule the brain when the gut feeling takes hold of us. It appears that the gut feeling is an additional means given to us, to supplement the brain. It is not tied down to logic or experience. When facing an entirely new experience, that feeling can still order us which action to take. So, as we don’t have a previous experience in the matter, how come we listen that that gut feeling ?... The gut feeling is also called “hunch.” There was a case in the US where a family was passing in front of a house in their car. The kid in the car kept saying he felt something was wrong in that house. Arriving home, he convinced his parents to return to that house of a total stranger. They found somebody needing help there...

                I've had gut feelings about uncertain situations and once i didn't listen to that but what my gut was telling was true. I regreted that later. So I believe it can be a powerful guide when logic and reason are unclear.
