Thanks for sharing guys.

As for education. I believe in a good base too. For me I always seem to go back to needing to listen to my heart. I've felt though that life seems to be the best teacher. Everyone and everything else just adds to the fun.

Doe:  I didn't particularly see where you took the leap to money in my post?  Please explain your position?

Many people give many things.  When using talents such as mediumship or psychic abilities, there is no standards whatsoever and it is certainly buyer beware.  Yes, this site is wonderful.  It is a gem among a lot of dross.  You can find as many bad (and perhaps more bad) rather than good sites for advice and help.  And a good many of those unqualified do charge - of this I have little doubt.  

I am not against charging for services rendered - but I would certainly want to know the experience I was getting for my buck.  How many people say 'I am not experienced' and then go on to tell others the path to take?  I have seen far too many to count.  

Mediumship talents as I practice have more to do with encouraging the seeker to find their own answers, rather than supply any for them.  This may be a subtle distinction to some, but I strongly believe in personal responsibility.  And if I am about to take responsibility for my actions, I would certainly want it to be MY decisions rather than those imposed by a supposed psychic expert.

Education in any subject is as important as the practice.  Life teaches many lessons and the uneducated sure get their fair share of problems by going off half baked on any and all tangents.  I sure wouldn't want my brain surgeon to take the approach so many advocate with lack of education.  Has life taught them the map of the brain?

This, and the ensuing discussions (which mentioned fees, etc. a few times), was what had me thinking that you meant something along those lines.  I apologize if I misunderstood what you meant.



I so TOTALLY agree with you on the above!
