So the opportunity has finally fallen into my lap where I'll get the chance to sit in front of a psychic medium and see what all this hooplah is about. The idea of psychics and mediums intrigues me but of course being a 'science girl by nature' I'm skeptical. I want, I want, I want so badly to believe in the after life so I'm a little nervous that this meeting isn't going to give me the results I'm so desperately longing for.
Of course it should go without saying that I'm hoping my father will make an appearance but it would also be pretty cool if one of my best friend's Andrew did as well. I guess I'm just hoping this medium blows me away with a whole lot of gasps and oohs and ahs and "how'd he know that?'s". I worry that I'm putting too much stock into this and I'm just going to walk away $60.00 poorer and more disappointed. I'm worried that my hopes will be dashed.
The negative Nellie in me is suggesting that I go in with zero expectations that way I'll either walk out smug and arrogant saying, "Ya, I knew nothing would come of it." or I'll be mindfucked (which would be crazy awesome). I'll keep you posted!
Have you gone to a psychic or medium and gotten good results?
Interesting article...I can honestly say that I havent visited a psychic or medium strictly because I believe if any of my love ones who have gone before me need to speak to me, they now possess a far more powerful ability than that of person still alive. I would say you are probably giving away $60 but as a scientist you may just need to look at it as research investments. Great Post! :)
ReplyDeleteGood way of looking at it, a research investment. haha :)
DeleteI haven't gone to one, but I've always wondered about it. I definitely think there is something normal about wanting to connect to our loved ones on the other side. Ever since my husband passed away I've really wanted to try it out -- but like you I am afraid of having too high of expectations. What I so desperately long for won't happen and then I will be crushed. I am afraid that I will be among the handfull of people who it doesn't work for.
ReplyDeleteBut I guess you never know... Please keep us updated; I'm very interested to see how it worked for you. I hope you get the results you hope for!!!
Thanks Nikki, I will write about the experience, good or bad.
DeleteI too want to believe, but am truly sceptical. My thought is go into it as a "fun" experience, not expecting too much, and hope for the best.
