Thereโs a balance to being Empath who has psychic experiences and yet tries to be remain objective to what is going on.
To say that Iโve had more than my share of interesting experiences would not be an exaggeration. To say that many of these could not be explained away somehow would also be correct.
Some of them canโt. Some things that happened would require either a shared delusion, or timing and circumstances so contrives that it would make the most blatant Hollywood blockbuster script look disjointed by comparison.
I suppose it would be easy to ignore everything that doesnโt fit, but I also feel that would be doing myself a great disservice.
For instance, if someone tells me about having the same types of experiences as me, I need to consider if they had them before they met me or read any of my works, or if they arrived at the same types of conclusions independently.
Fact is: We, as humans, have a tendency to make stuff up, or change the facts ever so slightly to make it fit our stories.
I noticed this in my mother from a young age. She would adapt her stories and just put a small little twist into things to completely change the meaning.
She would tell you about her own psychic experiences, but only after she got your version. Then, mysteriously, it would match.
Or she would have the answers to puzzles that she claimed she already knew, but only after she was told the answers.
I never called her on these things, and really, I didnโt see the point to doing so, but it did make me very much aware of just how easy it was to make something into whatever you wanted it to be.
I do a lot of research and listen to sceptical podcasts because I learn a lot from them. (Plus, I find their observations hysterical at times because they are true.)
Problem is that itโs at the other extreme of the spectrum.
Where the true believer seems to accept everything they are told, the sceptic seems to refute anything they are told.
There just doesnโt seem to be a balance.
We need to be able to think critically about things. If something doesnโt seem to fit, look closer at it. It may not appear to fit because it does not fit.
Next: Fact or Fiction.
