I give 2 diarrhea if people think I'm weird when I tell them. I just dont want to be put in a nuthouse for not being normal or knowing too much.

Hey beav31ist. Much confusion comes from judging nonphysical and universal occurences from the physical perspective, when in reality physical reality is within the context of universal being. We ARE normal- the move evolved you are, the closer you are to purely embodying the light of the Source, the more normal you are. The higher is the measuring rod, not the physical. And there is no such thing as knowing too much. There is no limit to development. From the higher perspective, growth is infinite, and encouraged. Trust. Reality is reality, and it's good. Things will only happen for your higher good, and this can be joyful if you allow it to be. I trust that my Source Self and guides, and the Source and the Universe, would not have me thrown in a 'nuthouse.'

Take care. []

Friend, those words of wisdom are potent indeed.

For several years I was 'in hiding' because first of all the response I got from the first ones I told about it (my parents) when I told them. "You're just dreaming." Some get the patented "Are you nuts?" And as I told more people while in that defensive, 'they won't accept' it state of mind, I of course still got 'negetive' responses; so you kind of get used to and into a rut of fearing the negative reaction- whether it is fear from the other person, or just stark skepticism.

As I grow though I see the importance and power in truly loving oneself, which includes honestly being and expressing oneself. Since I've started to share with people it becomes more and more common to them. Now I can tell my mom: "I just went out-of-body mom." She comes back: "You like getting out of that body, don't you. How long were you out??" And they ask questions, etc.

We were taught by the first we told that it/we were weird, strange, out of our minds, or what have you, and it became habit to close that aspect of ourselves up. Many times after opening up again I still got/get negativity, but now it doesn't hurt me. I realize that when it did hurt me I was coming from that same 'hurt, denied, they'll think I'm weird perspective.' I DID think I was weird, so I got that response for sure; especially when combined with a subject that people really have to change their overviews on.

Now when I share and the person is nonresponsive it is like: "well, they are not ready to grow in this regard yet, but at least I love myself enough, and see myself and experiences as valid enough, and see how beautiful and important this subject is, and how valid and worthwhile my interests and thoughts are, that I openly mentioned it." Then I can talk about it without being weird. Anyone who really wants to know can find out how much validation it has just from researching. And those I speak with start to read on it- even if they dont't admit it to me. Like at work, some might have that negatuve attutitude when I tell them, but those that are responsive to me and look up the sites I give, etc.; I find that the skeptics end up with them in corner trying to find out what were just talking about! For whatever reason they might not want to admit it to you: fear (that can be done?!), ego (how can you know that and I don't?!), resistence to change (I've been believing this (religion, worldview, etc.) all my life!).

It could be ego and fear for a lot of them. "This kid can't know something I don't know (for the 'adults')."  "I believe in heaven and hell, and you can't meet the dead (for the religious). I told one of the managers at my job about how I went and met my grandmother after she passed. He said he doesn't believe that is possible. I didn't argue. I know what I did, and he had his belief. Some will accept it. Some won't. All of you who read on it can see the countless examples of people meeting people who've quit their physical body, so there is validation even if you haven't done it yourself.

Though that person may not have been responsive then, at least in your sharing you give them a chance to be- a chance to learn and to grow, and to open themselves up to greater parts of themselves. As they evolve they'll find out, whether now or later. And if not consciously they will at least subconsciously thank you for being a mirror to clearly reflect them, so they can grow. One I told was like: "I heard about that in high school from these two girls. I didn't believe them, but now that you say it too it must be true." And some are in doubt of themselves, for they will have to change their beliefs, so they show negativity. And you folding would give them just the illusion they need to hold on to their limiting beliefs. That's what some of them want. Fear of change. But change is growth, stagnation is death. The changing to learning about it, AND the changing to share about it, are both growth. The opposite of each is stagnation.

We were taught that this is not normal, when it is natural, and normal, and one of the aspects of the evolution of incarnate consciousness- to consciously be the multidimensional being that it is. But after the opening negativity we may have recieved it takes a bit of courage to open up again, but it is by far worth it. For self-love and -acceptance, and for helping the world/universe evolve, it is very important to share. For bringing it out of the realm of the strange, and the weird, and into the arena of normalcy; it is very important to share. And it is important to you as a valid being to share; to honor and validate yourself. You dishonor yourself, and tell *yourself* that you are not valid, by holding it in for what someone else may think! If you can't honor yourself, how can they? It's just like love- and in fact that is what it is. Love and accpetance of self, and love and acceptance of others. And either way, I'll plaster it around the world so much that if they don't open up first, the friends and relatives and coworkers, etc., that anyone is afraid to tell now will tell them!! It is a growth process. We are evolving from the third density to the fourth. There may be some growing pains. But in focusing on the next level of our evolution, I see that it is all worth it.

Take care.
