Something big happened today.
I don’t know if i’ve mentioned it on here before, actually. But i have a coworker, we’ll call him D. He’s one of the only 4 guys that work in my department. He works downstairs, and i see him a couple of times a day.
Immediately, we kind of hit it off, but then we really hit it off when we learned that we both play the same video game (rocket league). We became friends after that, and we’d play from time to time.
Well we would talk a lot and one day i casually mentioned acupuncture and we had this super long conversation. It turns out that he is super into energy stuff and the metaphysical. He mentioned that his sister is kind of a healer, and he knows a lot about it. At that point we talked about it extensively and i confided in him that i am super into energy work and what not.
Well today, we somehow got to talking about spirits and he began to tell me about how he is deathly terrified of spirits. He’s always had this fear, and as he went on i could tell that part of his fear was from the conditioning from like popular media and movies. But.
Apparently his entire family is “gifted”; everyone but his father. Everyone in his family is “sensitive” and works with energy and some of them work with and talked to spirits. He told me stories of when he was positive 99% that he had interacted with spirits (he didn’t talk to them or see them). And then he continued on about when he was younger he was sure that he had this “gift” but that he thinks that he ran from it, and buried it.
This is a very big deal. I don’t believe in coincidences at all. First, we really hit it off with compatible personalities. Then we have similar interests. Then we had very similar pasts (both mormon). And now we both are into the metaphysical?? There is absolutely no way that this is a coincidence. Our paths are crossing big-time.
So he knows that i am super into energy work and Qi and Chinese Medicine. But i haven’t told him about my abilities yet. I keep that on the DL, especially at work. But after today... I just know that i have to tell him. I want to tell him. I can help him. I’m already planning on making him an enchanted charm to help protect him from spirits, since he is so terrified of them. But maybe i can also help him rekindle and embrace his “gift.”
I was just kind of stunned as this conversation was happening, and i’ve been excited about it all day. I think I’m going to try to get with him outside of work this weekend so we can talk about it. I have a feeling that we’re going to be talking for longer than 20 minutes at a time, at least an hour.
Anyways, that’s it for now.
