Hello, my first post--just arrived recently

Hello to all,
I've recently joined this site in hopes of acquiring some knowledge and explanations to my many questions. Have had an awareness of 'things' since my teens which I basically ignored sublimating much of what I felt through art and writing. My outlook started expanding again in the '00-'01 timeframe with a major jolt on Sept.9,2001. Since then my experiences are undeniable and continue to grow exponentially---I just can't ignore what I'm seeing. I've always considered myself somewhat of a spirtual person, but this is different.....
I am not versed in most of the philosophies that many of you refer to but I am hoping to listen, learn and understand. Would it be OK if I ask many questions??

Thank you all for your kindness and patience *bows*
