Diary of a Paranormal Investigator

A New Beginning
Mood:  caffeinated
Topic: Just Because I Can...
As a new month begins so does this blog. While I don't expect to post on a daily basis, I do expect to use this forum to discuss (rant/rave about) current issues surrounding Paranormal Investigation, as well as other topics I deem pertinent to the subject.

I've been interested in the paranormal for as long as I have memories because I've been having paranormal experiences for that amount of time. Once I finally figured out that I wasn't crazy and there was something to all of this, I decided to start investigating. After all, I'm a Gemini, and there are two facets to my personality. On the one side, I'm a firm believer in the the paranormal, the mystical, the "new age." The mind is capable of so much we've yet to understand.

But then that other side kicks in, and I start to look for the reasons why. I find myself having that little back and forth conversation in my mind that goes along the lines of, "Wow! I can't believe that just happened!" "That couldn't have happened. There must be a logical, scientific explanation." "But I saw it. I FELT it!" "But science says..." And it goes on and on.

I do feel that everyone is born with some sort of "psychic" ability. However, we condition our children to doubt it, squash it, overpower it, not trust it, etc. Children tell us of playmates only they can see and hear. We tell them they have overactive imaginations and need to be more mature. We laugh it off, but should we?

I know that my parents taught me those people only I could see were the product of my own mind and didn't truly exist. When I foretold of upcoming events it was written off to coincidence and I was told to quit being silly. Only God was capable of doing such things, and I wasn't God.

So I spent the majority of my formative years squashing a natural ability. I have found that it's not as easy to develop if you wait until you're 30 to give it a try. I don't see the "imaginary" people I once did, but I am aware of their presence, and sometimes, when I'm lucky, I can communicate with them.

That's why I'm a Paranormal Investigator.
