hi NSD, I understand what you're saying. I'd like to start a new thread based on what you're saying so probably will do that. and just wanted to welcome you here again as I think each of us have something to say if we only get the chance before being shut down by misperception and stereotype belief systems expressing, like u said the gypsy with the crystal ball getting a bad rap. seems like anybody with a little psychic ability will get slam dunked anyway by society as it can be threatening to society when they wonder how you knew something about them that was in their unconscious mind, so they think that these are powers they don't have, when thats the wrong way to think about it; not every phychic is out to do you in...lol...but see, we don't practice trust in our society because somehow we don't have anything to trust as we used to trust god but even thats gone, except for those who practice a religion will think on these things more than the average bloke.
but telepathy, intuition is inside all of us, just laying there, sometimes untapped, sometimes tapped too much. this board was started by Rosalie, an author, and Bruce Moen, an author and I hope you can read their books, great books, enjoyed them ever so much, a true gift and glimpse at the new human coming into being in the future on a greater scale..I call it the shift in consciousness. don't be fooled by words and interpretations though, its the intention behind the books and the teachings that you can pick up on that is important.
so what you are seeing here where you can be accepted is Bruce's vision coming true and the rest of us just work here. Pretty darn neat huh?
well, out there where you can't really express yourself just means you "think" you can't. spirit will guide you to the right people who will open up your gifts.
don't give up, sometimes we entertain angels and they look like bag ladies...I see this all the time! love, alysia
