Being credulous doesn’t mean I’m not sceptical, too.


The sceptical Empath

My life has been unusual, to put it mildly. Those who know me would not deny that, and there are some things that I just can’t explain away, no matter how creative I become.

I’ve seen and experienced a lot of things, some of which will be posted to this blog in time.

This is what this entry is about. How credulous am I? What measures, if any, do I take to try to ensure that all I’m writing about isn’t just the delusion of some active imagination?

And that is a good question.

I’m what you would call a purist and I prefer to deal with facts and true experiences. It’s easy to ignore things if they don’t fit your belief system. However, believing that the world is flat does not make it any less round.

I truly believe that we do more harm than good to our cause if we ignore explanations that account for why something happens.

I feel that in order to remain objective about things, you need to be ready to accept that what you thought was so, may not be correct at all. I’ve certainly gone through that a few times in my life.

As new information comes up, I take that into account. Sometimes it fits into the bigger picture, and sometimes I have to rethink what I thought I knew. As long as I remain open to new information, I know I will get to the answers.

Over the years, I’ve done some intense studying on universal laws, life before death, after death, reincarnation, souls, manifesting, and so on. I read everything I could get my hands on and ran it through my mind and my feelings.

Eventually I reached a point where if I focused on a subject, I would ‘feel’ the answer. Meaning that I would get answers that felt right to me, and made sense. Sometimes the information would come quickly, sometimes it would come in section, and sometimes it would take years, with refinements and clarifications added.

I believe that getting the answers was a matter of being attuned to the information. There have certainly been times when I’ve been quite surprised by the results.

A lot of my works do have their basis in my studies of other works, and for that I acknowledge people like Neale Donald Walsch and Michael J Roads and Kyriacos Markides as three main sources of inspiration. Those works helped attune me and allowed me to understand and bring down much more information.

All my work is my work. They are my feelings and thoughts on a subject. What I write feels true for me, though, this may not be the case for others, as everyone has their own individual reality.

If you read these topics and it resonate with you, then use it. If not, then simply use it as another person’s perspective, which can be just as valuable.

By nature, I tend to be somewhat of a sceptic and a cynic. While I keep an open mind about everything, I treat many things I hear about with a healthy dose of scepticism. There’s a lot of misinformation out there, and there are many people who repeat what they hear from other sources without check to see if it feels right for them.

I also trust my intuition and feelings 100%. Many things that should NOT be possible, feel right to me. When I was younger, I ignored those feelings, and my life just never worked out as I planned. It was only when I started to listen did things shift and my life ramped into high gear.

I am aware that many of the things I say and discuss are really ‘out there’. I could choose to tone it down. I could choose to use ambiguous words or speak in a way that absolves my responsibility for what this information imparts, but I am not going to do that.

There are people out there who need to find this information. They need to find it because they are experiencing the same things, and will need the validation that it is happening, and that they are not crazy.

So should you read my stuff, may you enjoy my writing.

Also, feel free to poke fun at it with your friends. 🙂

    The amount of e-mails I get which say, I didn’t know there was a word for it, is amazing. There are so many empaths out there, and so many think they are crazy.

    In a way, it’s like a sighted man trying to explain sight to a society of blind people. They probably don’t believe him, and think he’s just a nut. 🙂

    This empath thing is freaking me out, there is so much that fits and makes sense, seeing things, photophobia, other peoples moods flooding mine, hating crowds, totally, totally spooked…..

      It freaks out a lot of people when they come across it the first time. Understanding it, though, can be life changing.

    Have you heard of Holographic Kinetics? It’s an Australian thing. I can’t tell if it’s good (true) or not but it seemed to have more harm than good for me. My imagination is quiet active as it is, and it catapulted me into a terrible place where I couldn’t communicate because I was worried about the entities in people and myself which sort of deformed my vision. I’d like to know your thoughts on it…

    Now I’m left with having to be more empirical, I guess, in my beliefs so that I can speak. Although in truth I am really not quiet sure of anything.

      Hi, I’ve certainly got a lot of thoughts on that, though certainly too much to say in so few words. When dealing with any astral level, it’s worth being careful as you never know what you might attract or trigger. But with any entity, the key is using love filled light to protect yourself.
