    I have had just the MOST frustrating conversations with people I know to be incredibly intelligent lol.

    Im normally very live and live. Like so long as your not convincing/have been convinced to go for reki as a substitute for cancer treatment… Whatever makes you happy. You feel happier holding a quartz rock? Then technically it is working, cool rocks make me happy to, you do you.

    I have no idea why dowsing just gets under my skin lol.

      It’s the difference between “this (placebo) makes me feel better” vs “this is real factual (magic)”.

      One is a lie they tell themselves, the other is a lie they tell you.
