I envy them, of sorts. Material observable life is complicated enough, without adding a unseeable spiritual realm.

As far as I can understand it, to discern the spirits has to have something to do with seeing them. And that can get creepy.

A Christian friend of mine, who lives by the Spirit, or makes every effort to do so, has been called a witch, by some of her fellow fundamentalist's church goers. She sees visions too. And God speaks to her. He wakes her at 3am, and speaks audibly to her, she claims, and describes, in great detail.

Seeing seems to be key. Where does that gift come from?
