Another way...

   It's hard enough living in a world where it seems every move we make is judged by others. From work to personal relationships it seems we spend an extraordinary amount of time justifying our choices or actions. In many cases we, as a people, think the only way we can avoid having judgment passed on us is by turning negative attention to others.

   Y'all...life is hard enough as it is. Really. The difficulties we face, daily, are bad enough but when you're in a field, such as the paranormal, it is ten times worse. Not only do you have the groups of people who think you're crazy by being involved in it, then, you have other groups of people who are also a part of it but spend a good deal of energy focusing on you and perceived shortcomings than on their field of choice.

   Life truly is too short for behavior such as this. If you are truly doing what you love to do then you will not have time to focus on all the negativity. If you truly care about what you are doing and the field you are involved in you would do anything to keep it from being shamed and ridiculed in the public eye. I think people forget we, as people of the paranormal field, are watched very closely. Our behavior does matter. Whether or not people want to listen to what we have to say is judged by how we carry ourselves.

   Those who wish to learn more about the field, and about the paranormal world in general, look to all of us for guidance, leadership, understanding, ethics and compassion. Please...let's show them we have all of these traits. Focus on the tasks at hand and forget everything else. Remember why you got into this field in the first place. Those who know and love you will support you and be there for you till the end. Those who don't simply are not part of your journey.

   Blessed Be )O(
