Psychokinesis, Rare Ability Or Not. Options

Do you think psychokinetic gifts are rare and why (either yay or nay)? It seems like everyone has sensory gifts out of the wazoo, but it seems as if it is rare for people to have psychokinetic abilities.

I think all abillities, psychic or otherwise are something that anyone can perform. To a certain extent(!) of course. My opinion only but still. Ive noticed that with the right technique and set of beliefs and conditions etc.. anyone can do pretty much anything, if only a little. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Anyhow, when it comes to spontenious bursts of energy. Items can be moved or wierd things can happan in the phisical realm. It does not mean people suddenly posess powers that come out of nowhere and know how to use them. When people go through extreme emotional states or change energeticaly they vibrate in a very high concentrated state of energy. That energy can bump into things which are phisical and accidentaly move them. On the other hand it can mess electirical systems and even effect flame or any other element. So its really not a big deal, and on the other hand not an indication of a "gift".

I personaly do not believe in "gifts". We live in a world in which you either know how something works and have enough power to influance it(which you build over time together with expirience) or you dont. No one has "special" abillities that they can instinctively use out of the bloom without knowing anything of the process. That usualy happans on tv, because otherwise we would be very old before the main character figures out the flow of the universe and how to interact with it to do various super-natural fits.

Again, just my opinion.

I may sound a bit harsh saying this. But reading such things is like a slap on the face to people who work hard and get real results. When I mean "real" Im talking about results which they can repeat whenever they like and are in control of whatever is happaning.

I do not mean to offend anyone. I just see this in a lot of forums. Its great to believe that you are "naturaly" granted with some kind of power or something else along those lines, but "gifts" and "abilities" require effort and expirience. Otherwise they are wasted. so you may start out with a high energetic potential or a very developed this or that, but unless you learn how to work it better, its not much of anything.
