empaths...

I'm not sure how being an empath happens. I think that it is someone with good intuitive abilities but also the ability to sense other beings or energy. That makes me think "psychic" or an intuitive. I know I don't have clairvoyance or any of those abilities, at least nothing that is amazing. I have pre-cognitive dreams.

Hmmmm. All I know is that when listening to someone speak, I can sense where they are coming from...or that they are lying(even if that person doesn't realize they are lying). It's like knowing what they are really feeling or trying to say. Haha...gets me in trouble sometimes when I call someone on it and they aren't ready to come to terms with what they are really feeling. I feel actual pain when I see someone in pain. If I'm in a crowded area like a food court, I feel like I'm being bombarded by the energy in the room. So much going on besides just eating! And I'm very sensitive to loud noises. The older I get and the more aware I become, even music gets to be too much.

There have been studies done that say that empathy has biological and spiritual aspects. I think it's something we all have...passed down from centuries. It's hard to function on facts alone. If anyone has seen Avatar, the Na'vi were empaths. I believe we are all connected and some of us are better at opening up the connections to all energy. If it's biological, what is it and where does it come from...the amygdala? Is it our cells connecting to everything?

I sometimes wonder if I had a sense of smell, whether I would be a better at this intuitive stuff. That's my next visit with you, Rose...find out why I can't smell! :) This is such a great topic! And T- I'm looking forward to hearing more about Synchronicity.

Love all-
