Catholic Mystics? Or Just Catholic?

I keep reading about Catholic mystics....

And today, a bit of whimsy came to my mind.  Could it be that there are no such thing as Catholic mystics...?  Could it be that when a Catholic reaches a certain level of connection with God, he becomes a mystic?

Almost all the people I am connecting with whose faith are being revived in a truly life-changing way are experiencing varying types of 'mysticism'.  Could it be that when we connect with God, we tap into the spiritual world? Or perhaps when we become aware of the 'other' world waiting for us, we become aware of other things as well.

And how would that explain those who are mystic from birth?  Well, perhaps they are soldiers with a job to do.  Which may be why the devil tries so hard to subvert them even from before the time they were born. Sadly he seems to succeed a lot.
