Do you believe in Karma? Aura's? ESP?

You know, I really wish I had had the ability to raise my body temperature at will by just thinking about it when I was still living at my moms house. I mean, the number of days I could have stayed hom sick and just hung out when she was working! LOL!

Yeah, unfortunately the High school I went to only allowed a certain number of sick-days, even if they were excused by parents and you made up all the work. Then you had to sign a contract (as if a minor can enter into a legally binding contract with anyone)stating that if you missed another day for any reason whatsoever, they were allowed to fail you for every class, meaning that if you broke the contract you'd be forced to go to summer school 6-7 hours per day or not graduate. According to them, if you missed that many days of school you couldn't possibly have learned anything in the classes you missed even if you did make up all the work so it was either summer school or failure for the class. I hadn't even hit the limit for the class yet (I was two absences away I believe) and the principal flat out looked me in the eye and said it didn't matter, he was forcing me to sign a contract anyway (see, "According to them" above). There was only one marking period left and I was failing the class because of these absences and my teacher personally called me and said that I'd done so well in those last few weeks that I didn't need to take the final to pass. How's that for not possibly learning anything? Anyway back to the topic, the whole paralysis thing, it depends on how you sleep. This happened while I was sleeping on my back, what doctors call, "Sleep Paralysis" happens when you sleep on your stomach with your face in the pillow. I've had that happen too, you wake up but your face is in the pillow so it's hard to breathe, you try to push yourself off the pillow to get a breath but you can't move so you're stuck there seemingly suffocating for about 30-45 seconds, it's terrifying. They say you're supposed to try wiggling your toes and it helps your body wake up faster, and to sleep on your back to prevent it. As far as the dreams are concerned, I usually have very vivid, realistic dreams when they're about the future. The dream about the friend, happened when I was about 7. When we met in eighth grade he said the exact same thing that he said in my dream, in the exact same spot, and up until that point I had completely forgotten about the dream.

Im always warm to the touch, but my temp will read a few degrees cooler than normal...My doctor called it something I cant remember. Do you always remember your dreams? I have had issues with not being able to move when Im awake...to be honest I hate it and it freaks me out...especially in the middle of the night.

I was very lucky to have my great-grandparents actually. The rest of my family is pretty horrific... abusive and such... but my great-grandparents were the people I could depend on. My great-grandfather and a relative of his taught me Native American traditions, and my great-grandmother taught me Celtic paganism. So I was pretty lucky to basically grow up dealing with the spirit world... it wound up being kind of an escape because of the abuse I was suffering. It's great that your daughters are going to grow up knowing that spiritual things are okay! It's really sad what your little girl has to go through in terms of seeing such things in church though, and I'm glad that you're keeping her out of it now! In my case, I can both see and sometimes feel auras... there are people who make me feel like I'm being tickled, or caressed, or make me feel slimy... it's kind of how I judge people a lot of the time. There are people that I do or don't trust based off their auras. I have one friend whom I talked to online who makes me feel like I'm wrapped up in a blanket. :) I've had some really interesting spiritual experiences I guess. Since I've been involved with such things since I was a kid, I have more experience than a lot of people I've met who are older than me but came to it later. It's kind of funny because I wind up in a teacher role a lot of times with people older than me. I really can't imagine living without that spiritual world as a part of me though... sometimes I wonder how "normal" people do it!

Im sorry you went through such horrible experiences as a child. Its good that you had an escape and a form of therapy for it. My daughters and my son when he gets older will know that what they feel and believe isnt something bad. My daughter is happy now that she doesnt have to go to that church. I wouldnt be soo against it if they had taken her feelings into consideration. I mean if a 4 year old is crying because she doesnt want to go into a place because it scares her then she shouldnt have to. So yeah I dont know what you would call me.. I see colors and get vibes from people. I can tell a lot of the time when someone is lying or hiding something. It kinda sucks sometimes though..

Thats probably a good thing that you grew up that way...I thought I was crazy seeing colors around people and other odd things..My mom finally told me our family history about 5 years ago. It explained alot. And now Im able to let my girls know thats its okay so they dont feel like I did growing up. My youngest daughter is extremely sensitive she wont even go to church when she is at her dad's every other weekend because she told them that people were burning there. She is only 4 mind you. Scary for her. I finally had to put my foot down about forcing her to go when she doesnt want to. I pick her up early that day and we just spend the day together. I think a lot of what the church has turned into religion is a joke. I would love to hear some of your stories you seem like a pretty cool person! : )

so your 6th sense is reading/seeing aura?

I do believe in Karma and very much in Aura's. Thats very awesome that you and your friend both discovered a unique ability you both have. I havent really read up on third eye, but my 6th sense is usually in high gear! :)

I dont know if it should be labeled as my 6th sense, I dont think that has a label..I consider my 6th sense to be more intuition than anything, but yes I have seen colors since I was a little girl,and so has my mother and grandmother. My own daughters comment also about them so Im assuming its genetic in our family.

I think you are absolutley right. I think people need to read fact before they believe anything. But then again having faith in something isnt always about reading or seeing...its just knowing that their are miraculous things in this world that cant always be explained or denied for that matter. :)

Soo true! Everyone gets their in the end...If your good...good things will happen...if your bad...then bad will happen...

it is a private institution just like school...

Do you know the name of the place?

What institution is that? Government lock up? Or are we talking like one of those study institutions?

Considering we as humans only use about 10% of our brain I think anything is possible. And I think anyone can use it use just have to allow yourself to open up your mind a bit.

It was hurting your dog???

I didnt say what strange things happened...And I know what karma is. I was just curious to what others thought and how they feel on the subject. Do you believe in it or do you think its just a buncha crap?
