For me I find that I have a craving for really in depth conversations where I am talking with someone who is so open that they believe anything is possible. They have a limitless world view. Someone I don't have to tip toe around because they are skeptical about this or that. Maybe it's really that I just don't want to be invalidated and told I'm wrong. So I just don't talk about things that can't be proven scientifically because I just know them intuitively. I tire of talking with people who need me to give them proof otherwise they blow me off and make me feel stupid. So that's how I end up isolating myself. I feel unwilling to risk more rejection because of my spiritual beliefs.

I think people can sense who is "safe" to discuss these things with. But yes, I isolate, and seek solace in nature, stars, animals...and the brilliance of old soul writings past. I try to trust that the people that come into my "vortex" do so for a reason...although I'm also learning that it's okay to have boundaries by the same token. Yes, sometimes I fall into judgment...but believe me, other-worldy entities quickly let me know that, from their perspective, I'm a 3rd grader. Keeps the humor in place. This site has "good energy"....please just trust your instincts about some sites, practioners, etc. Some hear the buzzwords and just run with them, not really knowing what they mean...
