After reading Cindy Marie's book, Born With It, you would be mistaken to assume that a psychic has an easy life. In her sometimes harrowing, sometimes humorous account, she tells the story of how she dealt with her paranormal abilities while growing up, beginning with how she began to see spirits as a child. That may seem normal enough - we all `see' ghosts in the closet and 'feel' there are devils under the bed when we are young. Cindy Marie did too; only for her, they continued on through adulthood. Imagine constantly seeing goblins, trolls, evil spirits, as though you were trapped inside a Stephen King novel on a nightly basis - while your spouse is blissfully asleep next to you. Imagine also that you see premonitions of plane crashes, automobile accidents, or the image of a strange man with a wrench in your kitchen, who later turns out to be the kind and helpful plumber you hire a week later. In describing one of her visions, here she is at her most personal and laconic: "the next couple of nights, instead of angels, Jesus himself came. Talk about scared." As a reader, you nod in agreement with her, yet smile because her style is personable and friendly (and even humorous). In short, her book is an unusual, fascinating, and powerful account of how she came to understand the meaning behind her visions and premonitions - or rather, how she overcame her fears about her extraordinary perceptions, and dedicated her abilities to God and to helping people, especially helping the parents of children who may be experiencing similar types of visions that she did. And in overcoming her fears, she tells an important human story - that "there are more things in heaven and earth...than are dreamt of in your philosophy" - with elements of drama, of struggling for understanding, and of seeking wisdom from various spiritual institutions, in an accessible style that makes it seem as though she is telling her story to you during a coffee break. Her book also has pages for you to write down your thoughts and opinions about what she says, which makes her book additionally helpful towards writing your own story about how to `figure out' those strange and unusual experiences you might have had as a child, or those your children may be experiencing now.
