“You have a right to be here. You are needed”

Monday, May 23, 2001

5:15 AM. I have been thinking over things as they come to me, as I lay in bed unable to sleep for the past hour or so. So, thought I might as well get up and try to accomplish something.

Peter Woodbury, as Edgar Cayce, mentioned how painful it was to lose the hospital, and how ill-suited Cayce had been to be executive director of the hospital. I find that comforting, since it is equally true of me and Hampton Roads.

My friends, it has been several days. Since Saturday the 14th, I see, looking back. No wonder the work on organizing things seemed to leave me a little lost.

How to change your life

Keeping a journal is a great resource. It’s amazing what you can find when you look back. In the course of reviewing past sessions with various  guys upstairs, I found their advice from last September, in which they calmly told me that we could get rid of old unwanted habits and responses pretty quickly and easily. Great, ground-breaking stuff — and no doubt as old as the hills, too. But anything is new when you hear it for the first time. This, from Sept. 17, 2010

Irvin Laszlo on The Cosmic Internet

“Clear and fascinating, and extremely important. Connecting to the cosmic Internet is connecting to a deeper or higher reality, and through that reality to the cosmos. This book is a manual for doing just that.”

The Guys Upstairs, society and creativity

The link below will take you to a post on my Context blog, which in turn comes from Bill Totten’s blog, which I find to be a consistently interesting source of information from other sources.  I cite this here because it struck me that the four principles that were discussed fit in exactly with the stuff the guys upstairs have been giving me for a dozen years. Kind of makes you pay attention, you know?

Hemingway: Symbols and the limitations of scholarly analysis

What a strange and wonderful thing, to have learned how to converse either with the shade of Hemingway or with some representation of that shade that my mind has made up (which I don’t actually believe is the case, but recognize that it remains a possibility) and not only enjoy the process but continually learn things. While engaged in going back over my conversations with Hemingway, thinking to make a book out of them, I came across this one that should be of interest.

A thought that has come to mind repeatedly is how much good thinking is contained in your books that, for some reason, makes no impression on The Hemingway Myth. That myth is not really larger than life. It is distorted, with certain elements exaggerated and others ignored — suppressed, I sometimes think. The result misses you entirely.

And so does biography based on external fact, as I’ve said. What we do is only part of our life, only part of what we are. Why we do it — in what internal and external circumstances — is rarely obvious. That’s why these professors keep coming up with their theories, trying to explain everything. But nobody’s life can be explained, just explained away. And I never could persuade anybody of the fact.
