Hi

Post by routeeleven »

I'm new (clearly)

My name is Kori. I'm an 18 year old female living in a small town on the shore of Lake Superior, Ontario, Canada. I am a talented artist, and I am very smart academically and common-sensely (not a word, I know haha)

A brief little history about myself
I started drinking, smoking, doing drugs and being promiscuous at the very young age of 13.
I continued to live the destructing party life until I was 17.
I have been through a lot. I have been raped. I have overdosed. I have had alcohol poisoning. I have had an STD. I have ruined relationships. I burned bridges. I had anger problems. I was selfish. I was insecure. I was greedy. I was vain and naive. I was not religious, nor spiritual. I was doing bad in school. I was taking my family for granted. I was taking my health for granted. I was taking my entire life for granted. My future looked bleak.

I don't know what it was that changed me - but it happened over night. One day I was just fed up with my bad reputation and the way I was living my life. I was destroying my potential and my talent.

So I quit drinking, drugs, sex, and began to work on healing myself. I started eating healthier and exercise (yoga is my exercise). I started doing good in school again. I started spending more time with my family.

I lost many friends due to burning bridges. I also lost more friends when I quit partying. Those people were never friends anyways - they were just people who I partied with, nothing more.

Who I am to this day
I am 99% sober ( I still smoke cigarettes, however I am working on quitting). I don't have any friends except for one or two, but I couldn't be more happier with that. My family are all my best friends as they have stuck by my side through thick and thin. That's what family is for, isn't it?

I also acquired a huge interest in spirituality, divination, witch craft and many other forms of the Occult. According to the Bible I am on the highway to hell. However, my belief about the Bible is that it is about control and fear (no offense to any religious person here).

The Occult is all about you and the universe. It is hidden knowledge that has been hidden from many. How could using powers we were all naturally born with be a sin? If "God" says practicing witch craft and any other form of the Occult is a sin, then why would he give us these powers in the first place? That is why the Bible makes no sense to me. It tells you to rely and put all of your faith and destiny into "God". If you take charge of your own destiny and put faith in yourself and the universe, that means you are going to hell? Haha, what a joke.

Anyways... I'm a nice person. I love everyone, even my enemies. I can't say I truly hate a single person. I may strongly dislike the point of views, or the actions of other people but - unless they are serial rapists and child molesters - that doesn't make them horrible human beings. Hate is bad, and so is fear. It stops you from growing spiritually and mentally.

Each day I strive to improve myself.

I am currently reading two books -
The Parker Lifetime Treasury of Mystic and Occult Powers by Theodor Laurence
Cyclomancy - The Secret of Psychic Power Control by Frank Rudolph Young (It is an expensive book but I luckily found a FREE .pdf version online! Google is great, sometimes)

I also have a huge Amalgam filling in my mouth (50% mercury, did you know that?) And I have high levels of mercury in my blood (14 ugs, anything above 15 is dangerous according to IAOMT) so I am going to find a job full-time to save up for the removal of it. Once I get it removed I will detox my system and hopefully I will be even more clearheaded and my psychic powers will improve.

This was long and a bit off topic, sorry :P But ya, if you want to know anything else feel free to ask ! :D I don't bite (hard)

I'm new to this forum as well, just a word of advice. There is quite a gap between philosophy and the occult. This may seem obvious however many of the best occult practices are reliant on reason alone and so knowledge of actual unquestionable a priori truths is priceless as it acts as solid ground and in the occult there admittedly isnt much around. I mention this because although the two books you are reading seem interesting if you wish to seriously develope spiritualy it is important to find something solid to start with and build on from there, rather than depending on circumstantial a posteriori truths.

It seems a lot of people along with myself are joining recently, either it's some kind of psychic boom or a complete coincidence.

I'm looking forward to reading more of your posts.

Welcome, routeeleven! A most eloquent introduction, and I am certainly proud to see it written from the hands of a fellow Canadian. [thumbup]

And yes Cleft, I've definitely noticed that too. It's great! [grin]
