Psychic and Scared The Rest Part 1

Posted on by

Some thoughts are harder to write out than others. This is one of the harder ones because it is complex, and many will not accept it even though they have likely experienced something they can not explain. They probably have never told more than one or two people about their experience either out of fear of rejection or other reasons.

It is always easier to deny than entertain what we think we know may not be correct. I was watching a television show about children who see spirits, are pestered by spirits, or are terrified by a spirit. As is the case with most people having this gift, they did not know what to do about it, and neither do their parents. These children are lucky, they were helped by a two respected psychics, an Empath, and others.

Growing up seeing things, hearing voices or your name called when no one is around is no fun as a child. Neither is having ‘imaginary’ playmates dressed in Navy Sailor uniforms who don’t care to play with you. It is harder when one of them does not care for kids.

It is made worse when both imaginary people tell you that about one hundred feet away beyond the lilac bushes is another person who neither of them like and to stay away from that area. Living with a ghost or poltergeist sharing your room, having visions – dead people (mostly family) coming to visit you is scary. In fact at times it is terrifying. Those are only the major events to help you understand this multi post.

Clergy generally are of an opinion that it is either an over active imagination, health issue, drug problem, or a mix when venturing an opinion when asked for guidance. Eventually I found people who helped me, and shared what they knew to help me help myself.

With the internet and mega bookstores, there are thousands of people who claim to be psychic, or have paranormal abilities such as communication with the dead, or what we refer to as aliens. Others will guide you through your life, fix your problems or who knows what else.

Some of sources are total scams, some are looking to make a quick buck such as some fortune tellers, and some authors. For the most part these folks are self professed in the authors abilities, and self heavily marketed. Promises are large and actual content is a little light.

A few people however, even though they may seem a little over the edge when it comes to abnormal, are the real deal. They lived with themselves and their uncommon life until they could not take it any longer. At that point for them, it becomes a matter of accepting who and what you are, or losing yourself to the void. To the person who has to make that choice, there does not seem to be a lot of difference at that point and time. They found ways to make their gifts work for them instead of against them, and though they may be odd they do what they think is best for all.

It seems impossible to really know if what you (may) have experience(d) is real or not. Most people become scared and try to turn that part of themselves off like a water faucet, hoping they can turn the handle and it will stop. Some people like myself in the beginning, spend a lot of time scared of what they see and hear, and wonder about their grip on reality. Perhaps it is really is a bad movie playing in their head. Others do lose their grip on reality because they can not take it any more. They end up on some medicine or other because someone tries to make them normal when there was nothing wrong with them to start with, except knowledge and understanding.

Ghosts, vampires, and imaginary playmates

Posted on by

Over the years I have seen many strange apparitions. Halloween is only a few days away and it feels like a good time to write about them.

As a child I had two imaginary playmates. Playmates that were always in my backyard. The first wore a white sailor’s uniform. The second wore a sailor’s work uniform, which was blue jeans and blue shirt. I did not know about uniforms of course, or what they were, but the youngest man told me. There was a third figure, but it stayed out of site, and the two men told me not to go looking for the third figure. I do not know if it was a man, woman, or something else. I could tell it watched me sometimes, but I never tried to talk to it, or go see it there in the woods.

They would walk out of the woods into my back yard, or sometimes they were already standing out on the grass. They never stood, say in the picnic table, the clothes line pole, or walked through them. It never seemed odd to me as a child that these two men were always there. Or that they would talk to me, and I could talk to them. They also never played with me, just told me things and talked with me. Occasionally, they would tell me it was time to go into the house, but never anything of importance.

They went away after a few years, and I never knew why. I remember waiting for the snow to melt, and the ground to dry up, so my parents would let me play on it. I went out in the yard, and waited for them to come out and play with me, but they didn’t show up. I was kind of sad, my only friends had left, and I had no one to play with. I made it through not having them around without any lasting effects.

There were the vampires, demons, and ghosts that every person sees at one time or another in my life. I have seen three figures crouching in a bedroom all in western dress from a previous period. In England one morning, I drove in my car behind a woman riding a bicycle up a hill only to have her disappear on the back side of the hill. This with the road sunk six or seven feet below the cornfields’ on both sides of the road! There was a ski trip with a black dog with boar tusks sticking out the sides of its mouth, on the very top Mammoth Mountain. This was February, and there was over twenty feet of snow on the ground, not to mention six thousand feet of altitude from the nearest car, and miles from the nearest house! There were other sightings over the years, but enough of this for now.

What is most interesting about every apparition I have ever seen, is the forms they have taken on. There was never any Alien, any Chucky, or Freddy. They were all things I have either seen in person, picture, or imagined. As I grew through the monster phase so did what I would see, as they changed back into human form, with the exception of the dog and a few others.

I know that anything I see will always be what I have seen, or imagined. Not because I am seeing what really is, but because what it is either projects itself as something found in my memory, or my mind changes what I see into something that I can comprehend. I think that for whatever it is I may see, it is easier for it to take an image from my mind and project that image. I think this may be true from both an energy conservation standpoint, and my comprehension ability. I can not see what I have never imagined. I know we have much more to fear from flesh and blood human beings than anything that appears and disappears.

The next time something appears in front of you, do not get scared – get curious – unless it is Halloween, then RUN!
