Believing...
What do you believe in? What are your belief's in this thing known as the "paranormal?" Do you believe because you have seen it, heard it, felt it, or smelled it? Were your beliefs born because your eyes, ears, nose or hands proved it to exist?
Do you believe because your generations past shared with you their experiences, or do you believe because your past generations shunned your experiences making you thus more want to get the answers to what has happened to you, what you have experienced?
You know, regardless of how your belief in the paranormal realm began, you are among thousands and thousands of individuals who share in this belief. For centuries past and centuries to come the belief in the paranormal has grown immensly in unmeasurable numbers. There is a reason for this. There are reasons unknown to us, the general population, continues to become believers in this unproven science, at least unproven in a sense of comparison to other "sciences."
For those who believe in the paranormal, the stigma is horrendous, it is very difficult in believing in something so many people will respond very negatively towards you and in some case belittle you. It is very difficult when there is no support structure backing you to assist you in continue with this passion, that in many cases, on a close statue only you possess. Rarely, you are lucky enough to find a few other people that share in this belief that help you to continue on and in your search for answers.
Hesitantly I admit I fall into the group of believers' who lack a support structure, from a child to present day. There has been, through the years, rare opportunities in which present itself the unplanned meeting of individuals or online communities such as IAH in which helps you find those answers as to what you believe in, or find a place you can acceptedly belong.
I feel that is why I created our organization, The Paranormal Realm, and it's many branches. I too want to reach out to other "Believers," to let them know they are not alone, I desire to spread paranormal awareness. Believers have to fight the stigma, fight the ignorance of so many and stand up for what you believe, even if its not the popular belief.
So regardless of how the birth of your paranormal belief began and ensues, know that you are not alone, you are not crazy! There is someone out there in your close vicinity in which you can connect with. Thanks to I AM HAUNTED online community you are a member of a wonderful group of individuals, a group who doesn't shun and maintains an open mind and welcomes you, the believer in the paranormal!
