Those Durn Spirits!
Nov. 3rd, 2012 11:16 amI admit I tend to find most "Generic Americans" reaction to the Non-Physical Ecology confusing. They either deny it, fear it or Obsess about it....all alien to me.
I can Understand those who are both Untalented Receptive and Talented Sheilding. They See and Feel nothing that doesn't have a Physical body.
I can Understand the Fearing because there ARE EVIL THINGS out there. I've NEVER met a true Fluffy Sensitive because if you were, you'd have long since run into SOMETHING NASTY. 'Course, some folks are reeeaaallly good at self deception.
I don't Understand the Obsession though. Yah, there are Spirits but they're EVERYWHERE and of EVERY TYPE. So spending all your money to travel to Haunted locations is just something I don't "get". Helping folks that have problems? Sure and have done so....though some time they aren't really respectful of your efforts. Sometimes it's Understandable, like when you tell them that all they have to do is talk to The Spirts and ask them to Behave or Leave. "WHAT!?! IS that all you're going to DO!?!" "I could have done that!?!". But you didn't and it NEVER occurred to you to do so...instead you spent YRS being afraid of an ordinary bunch of Housespirits.
I'd say 90% of the time that there IS actually something where someone has asked me to help it's either and ordinary housewight or an Echo of a previous Inhabitant and the person asking is Sensitive enough to Sense them but not Educated enough to know that they're being afraid of the equivalent of a mouse or someone's vacation slideshow. Truthfully, I've only run into 2 truly NASTY things and both were caused by Ceremonial Magic by folks who weren't competant.
But that's another subject;>!
Cheers,
Pat
