The thread that connects us

   Through life as a medium have also developed a sense of the living energy emitted from those around me. Must admit though readings get clearer when I am able to tune into their energy without others around, sometimes people will try to block you from what they don't want to face. The living energy is ever changing like life but that of the spirits is somewhat a constant being as there is focus in the reason for a spirit to remain therefore spirits tend to focus on what compels them to remain. A spirits focus, this is what narrows their energy to a certain feeling or sense, i.e. sad, happy, mean, loving.
   Living energy interacts with life's occurrences and becomes peppered with each of the emotions that we derive from life. Living energy can be negative when someone complains or is depressed or it can be positive with happiness. There are many shades of the emotional rainbow in life as we experience, each experience builds upon the spiritual being we are becoming. One thing different about living energy from spiritual energy is living energy is in a state of constant change, even if you are unaware of this taking place.
    This also applies when the living make efforts to make contact. You know how people tend to befriend each other based on traits, hobbies and viewpoints shared in common as a few examples; spirits being as they were people once are attracted to the living in which they share related feelings and personality aspects. They draw towards the living that are much like they were in life as a person. Seeking out similar value systems and characteristics may be why spirits make contact with one person and not another.
    In life we can forgive, we can begin anew but in death spirits have to accept. Things like grudges, anger, love, ownership, injustice can become an emotional drive for a spirit to focus on a place or item and remain with attachment to the place or item. The longer their focus, the concept of time being measured slips away and all they relish is what they are focused upon. This makes it difficult to encourage them to give all of this up for a change that they will make based on faith that the change is the better decision than to haunt. Funny how even in death you are who you choose to keep company with.
