I had contemplated visiting a psychic for some time, so when I found a psychic fair in Indianapolis, I decided to go. Not knowing what to expect, I went with an open mind thinking that I needed some feedback on all the new truths that I had been taught, and I also needed some expert advice.

I was totally in awe that these people could be so precise about what was going on in my life when they didn’t even know my name.

They told me that I would be going through a great spiritual rebirth and that I would be involved in a great relationship with another woman in three to five years. It would be a great relationship, but we would have financial problems.

Inwardly, I realized that the woman would not be Barb. At that point, the psychic asked me, “Is there a boy named Stephen in your life?”

I said, “No, I have three daughters, why do you ask?” His answer came, I still see a little boy on a tricycle playing around you. “

This was really unnerving, and to this day I have no idea what it was about. I would learn over time, that many times many years pass before everything we learn in a psychic reading occurs and many times, we have one question answered, only for several more to appear.

To my dismay, no one told me what to do, but I was shown what would likely happen, depending on which path I decided to take. They told me in no uncertain terms that no one could tell me what to do, the decision was entirely up to me, the psychics could only advise me on the probability of any outcome, based on the decision I made. Many times, it comes down to what we have to do rather than what we want to do.

Once we have gotten the need to do out of the way, then we can do what we want to do. As we work on needs, we can begin to venture into the realm of desire.

I left more confused than when I arrived, but I realized that we, as human beings, choose our own destiny. And if we choose our own reality, then that choice must extend to the period before birth. We choose the body in which we incarnate, as well as the family in which we are born. The decision may need to be approved by a council, or the Source of God, to make sure it is for the highest good of everyone involved, but the final decision is ours.
