> I am definitely interested in what everyone else thinks about the telepathy and increased awareness. Believe me I would never imagine myself saying this, but I feel very connected to something huge and still have not completely let go to fully experience it.
Anthony, I'm glad you shared that. I find myself feeling much the same way. If you'd told me 10 years ago that I'd feel the way I do now, I probably would have nodded and quickly walked away first chance I got, lol. Yeah, strange things happened from time to time, but so what? Well, I've gone from curious skeptic to ambivalent to just accepting (but still curious.) I don't really know for sure exactly what it is and why it works but I don't deny that energy is there and it does work.
All my life I've had interesting and "odd" things or strange feelings happen. Many times I could rationally figure out a reason. Sometimes, though, no matter how deeply I researched and analyzed it, I couldn't find a "logical" reason. For years I pretty much just shrugged it off as just unexplained phenomenons. Unconnected events. They didn't happen all the time, I couldn't just call it up or make things happen. Most happened when I least expected.
Which got me thinking that maybe letting go and flowing instead of questioning and forcing things might be a key, or even the key. Now I find myself much more accepting of things, and find synchronities and the like occurring much more frequently. There are times I may not know how or why I know, but I know that I know, and that's ok with me. Like the saying by Gerry Rosten: "Truth is. Belief is not required."
I still have that rational dissecting side and some things I find a bit hard to swallow, although I can find a lot of wisdom mixed in with it. Since very young, though, I learned to discern as well as dissect and don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Although I may question the messenger, I still listen to the message.
The web is a facilitator, these forums are a focal. I've mentioned before how interesting it is so many of us have come together from very different backgrounds and beliefs and met on common ground here. I'm still wait and see in some areas, not questioning, but not completely in sync with yet. However, there are a few things I do strongly believe, one of which is patterns and connections, another I find myself mentioning quite often here: There is no such thing as coincidence. =)
