No, my father didn't.
Yes, active listening. And active seeing.
A young woman walked up to our booth at a fair. She asked a question and I personalized it for her by mentioning the college she attended. She was very impressed with my psychic abilities. She was actually shocked. My boss for the first time started laughing. I told the woman that yes, I'm psychic, but part of being a good psychic is reading all the information and seeing in the moment, as well as listening in the moment. Being active in the moment, being aware. She was wearing a buffalo necklace. She went to Colorado University.
You are a good father. Thank you for sharing!!!
As a person who receives messages from loved ones on the other side, from Spirit Guides, from Ascended Masters and other teachers, I think it is important to be in the moment and actively be open to the messages, be it listening, seeing, feeling, or knowing.
Oh, I think I'm both, psychic and I channel.
