I’m a medium that is dyslexic and
ADHD. So that’s the radio I am. Sometimes I can pick up spirit in FM and other
times they are fading out in AM. For me, it is easier to receive movies or
pictures. As a dyslexic the only way to get through school is to associate any
word with a picture. I can’t remember names. I can meet you and five minutes
late forget your name. I’ll probably remember your face, but I won’t remember
your name.
Thank God I have a great wife
that can remember everyone. You know the guy that was in the movie on the ship
who was married to the girl after she divorced the guy who was in “The Good,
The Bad and The Ugly.” It never fails; my wife comes up with the name. So
spirit knows this and accepts this about me, because I’ve seen every movie and
TV show in the world and have a great memory about pop culture that spans last
fifty years. If I’ve seen it or done it, spirit knows it will get the message
through.
In a small group last night, I
was trying to coach spirit and ask questions for my sitters. It was a tough
crowd in spirit that night. Basically they told me to sit my ass down and do as
they tell me. One spirit showed me a clip of an episode of American Sportsman
that used to be on the ABC network. I knew the guy, but couldn’t remember his
name. I asked spirit for a name and he says look it up! Wow, thank God my wife
is in the circle. “Could you look up the guy that has been on American
Sportsman and was the band leader for Jack Benny?”
Phil Harris? Thant’s the guy! The
sitter’s husband’s name was Phillip. Why didn’t he show me a picture of Phillip
Phillips or play the song in my head. Spirit did it his way. Another spirit
tried to get me a name and I couldn’t get it. So he shows me the cartoon Scooby
Doo and points to the short smart girl with the bangs and the glasses. I couldn’t
remember her name. Still can’t, got to look it up for this. Velma, that’s it!
Spirit has a sense of humor. The
spirit showed me an “R”. So I say whose name starts with an R? And they don’t
know. Then spirit shows me a capital “R.” Spirit insists there is an R! Nothing
comes up. Finally, spirit shows me, rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! And I say, spirit is
showing me a row of r’s...rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr? Oh! Our grandson runs around the
house saying that imitating a pirate on TV!
By God, so be it. If it was meant
to be easy in this life, you wouldn’t learn anything!
