Human Evolution or Gifted?
I am sure there are many people that will ask, Why would you write on this topic? There have been an overwhelming amount of questions, especially from young adults and teenagers, regarding the fact that with every new generation, more and more people seem to be born with extrasensory skills. I have noticed that over the past 10 years, parents are noticing that their 1-5 year old child plays with an imaginary friend, or constantly points and stares at nothing. What are they seeing, or who are they talking to? Let me share my opinion based on research, reading, and personal experiences.
Extrasensory Perception as defined in the Websters English Dictionary is: Apparent power to perceive things that are not present to the senses. Synonyms include: clairvoyance or second sight. People with this ability may be able to see auras, see and hear spirits of the deceased (including animals), have special healing abilities, etc. Some may be able to just feel when there is something that can not be seen with the naked eye.
In fact, humans use less than ten percent of their brain in every day life. Even critical thinking and extraordinary genius does not require much more if not any more than this. So how does a person acquire extrasensory perception? The answer is simple. Every human is born with this ability. At an early age, a child learns from their parents or role models what is acceptable, and what is not. A child is born without barriers telling them what is of our reality and what is not. This is why a child does not understand why an adult can not see their new little friend that they play with, or the man in the closet. This can cause mental anguish because then they feel that something is wrong with them. Extrasensory perception is established when a child is not taught that what they are seeing is incorrect, or a traumatic occurrence that usually consists of a near death experience.
A few things to do if you believe your child has special abilities:
1. Acknowledge your childs abilities
2. Let them know that you are there to help them as much as possible
3. Find a support group, there are others like them
4. Support them no matter how odd the stories may seem
5. Search for an experienced sensitive to help guide them and you
6. Maintain a positive environment
7. Follow your parental instincts, love your child
8. Never make your child feel that they are different than anyone else
9. Give them time to practice and concentrate
10. Listen to them, even if it is hard for you to understand
With a loving and positive environment, your child can develop these skills and grow to be effective members of society even if they choose not to use their abilities.
