Mostly in the early morning after 5AM I often sit at my computer and start reflecting on wherever my spirit takes me and my visit to the other side floods my contemplations... It is like a stream of consciousness download of a sort... Sometimes I feel an angel right over my right shoulder... like a check & balance...I know that sounds crazy but he is there... He is a guide I suppose or my higher self... I often pick up on other angels from time to time(isn't that the definition of crazy?)Most often words just flow out of me from these early morning meditations.... but mostly, I engage Yah(My name for God who is love) in conversations throughout the day(distinctly different than the voice of the angel over my shoulder...but these conversations wax and wane from day to day...month to month...etc... Sometimes... if I am very still, I can let go enough to see impressions or visions...but meditation is a lot of things... Sometimes I meditate when I fish(catch and release fly fishing)...or lately...making mosaic stained glass art...woodworking(I recycle wood and make furniture and jewelry boxes...etc...
In any case...this is what came to mind from your question...
