Quote:Don't accuse me of taking a rational approach.
Ask your self what it means to be convinced of something. Ask then what it means to try to convince someone else. Even if you convince your familiy member, or group member (same tribe), someone with strong emotional ties to you, can you still convince someone down the hall, that has little or nothing in common with you.
I'm hard to convince too, really. Especially in case of astrology. But there I believe the things I've experienced myself. I can perfectly imagine that you don't believe that stuff when you've never experienced it, and even then... But when you're a bit open minded towards "strange" things you find that you don't have to convince people of something that might exist.
I didn't believe in ghosts or some sort of spirits, until the day I've experienced something unusual. And it was certainly not my fantasy that started to imagine things. I believe we all have a kind of sixth sense, we all have subnormal gifts. Only almost nobody knows how to use it. I've got a very strong intuition, and it certainly helped me a lot. If you get somehow aware of the things you're surrounded with, you can see much more. We all have at least one guide who stays the rest of our lives with us, we only can't see him. The more we're in danger, the closer he gets. I've got a picture as proof, only like all the other things not many people believe.
