We all have these abilities, we have just been brainwashed over centuries to forget about it and so it has gone dormant. Occasionally you will hear stories of real "magic" being performed, psychics, seers, etc. For some reason or another these people have accessed their latent abilities.

I have never really been a family man, don't have kids. However I always thought that if I did, i would start from a very young age to teach them in a way so their thinking and beliefs make them aware that they can truly do anything they want. For a child's uncorrupted mind can be molded in so many ways. Habits and preconceived notions are formed in the first few years of life

Perhaps practice on focusing on objects to bring out telekinetic abilities, accessing the universal consciousness, and other such things.

i remember growing up ... being shunned for who i was ... yes ... a little different at times ... only because i had figured out how to turn the tap of connection on to that of which was not of the norm ... what i believed to be normal was very much fear to others ... little by little i learned to shut that part of me down ... secretly though ... never off ...

that is what i was labelled ... a witch ... and yet i always maintained i was no different than anyone else ... i could not understand why everyone had such a fear of ... of who they really are ... why would they fear abilities within them that make up who they are ... who we all are ... why so damn fearful ...

as harsh as it was at times ... it taught me well ... raising my own children ... to be open and accepting of them for who they are ... all of who they are ... in turn they are healthy and happy and one of them has extraordinary abilities and he is so ok with it because i am ok with who he is ...

but really ... does he possess extraordinary gifts? no ... not anymore so than you or i ... this is just who he is ...

about time we commence accepting our children for who they are ... and our selves for that matter ...

a child's mind is precious ... uncorrupted indeed ... to mold a child's mind into fear is truly against universal law ... to impose limitations and boundaries on their true expansiveness ... should never occur ...

it's pretty simple actually ... be open to potentiality of the mind ... bear no limitations ... do not necessarily fear what we have forgotten and others remember ... be open and soon we'll also remember ...

it's a tremendous leap to accept children for who they are ... all of who they are ... we're more experienced ... but because of the fear ingrained within us ... we are not necessarily wiser ...

it's about breaking a cycle ... significant is it that we are more accepting ... of not only the children of this world but our own selves ...

they are our future but we are their guides ... time we stop directing our own fears upon them ... hold the space for them to live in freedom ... freedom from genetic ingraining of fear ...

we are moving into a very new kind of world ... the old narrow minded ways will begin to fade ... only expansiveness of all that is will flourish ...

our hearts will expand most definately ... our minds though must follow suit ... mind's the tricky one ... always desiring to hold us back ...

open our minds as we open our hearts ... then move onward ... but that's another thread ...
