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
Unsuspected forms of communication
A message from the guys upstairs, who apparently are ready to stir the pot in a big way, depending upon how receptive I am.

8:30 AM. All right, let’s get to the topic. I have been working with two rough schemes that contradict each other, and you said yesterday you would give me a new one more appropriate to where I am now. Is this going to be another of those revolutions that set me farther and farther on a road away from where I’ve been?

6 AM. All right, boys and girls, here we go again. At least, I’m here if you’re here. Papa, I sort of miss talking to you specifically, but I get that this information is following rules of its own, sort of like a lesson-plan. So, whomever.
One of the difficulties, as you perceive it, is that although the information will be read in easy succession, so that what took you a week to bring forth may be read in one setting, you as you bring it forth cannot remember even the previous day’s information, let alone a week’s worth or the entire picture. But after all, this is only your usual situation in life, living in time-slices, concentrating on each successive stone in the mosaic, unable to sit far enough away to see it in an over-all view. There’s nothing wrong with it; this is how it should be. You do the detail work, we guide the pattern, and at the end you can read the final product (or, in the case of a writer, read and reshape) and perhaps for the first time see what you have been doing as it relates to itself, one piece to another, and as it relates to life.

6 AM. All right, here we are again.
In the time since we left off, not only have you done two days’ worth of reading — ignoring any other way of doing something other than this, however — but you received, last night, a phone call from your friend Jon asking if you knew anyone who could talk with him on the subject of guidance, because he has no confidence that his guides, as he conceives them, are really on his side. He perceives them as being in conflict with each other as well as with what he wants.
Yes, and I gather that you’re going to say, “and he isn’t necessarily wrong.”

All right, it’s about 5 AM. Anybody up besides me? What shall we talk about?
You’ll notice that the first question, being rhetorical, couldn’t receive response, and the second, being direct and pointed, can. This is so in general, communicating between the worlds as people say, or between the sides as you sometimes say. Now, many times an implied question lies between two people, or a continuation of a previously begun topic has the floor, but when nothing is next, blankness may follow until something is next. All this, of course, unless it is we on the other side who are setting the agenda.

6:30 AM, and a little groggy. I ate too much, stayed up a little too late, and I can see that I would feel better if sometime I had taken a little walk. Plus my right knee hurts and is stiff for no discernible reason. (Papa’s knee?) But — onward!
Good morning. Although you don’t always listen when it’s a matter of your own best interests (exercise, for instance, and eating) you do listen pretty consistently to prompts that are aimed at this work. You finished Reynolds’ The Final Years, you proceeded to his Paris Years. All of this gives you a sense of Hemingway in a certain time of your life close to what he’s saying, so as to help you make connections.
Conversations with Hemingway — What’s going on
What’s going on
My ongoing communication with what I call The Other Side — meaning, minds not currently attached to bodies, regardless whether they have ever been in the physical or not — has ratcheted up in breadth, intensity, depth, and specificity within the past few months. Six days every week, I have arisen early and have engaged in such conversations for anything from about an hour to perhaps an hour and a half at a time.
Until now, I have been posting these communications (under the heading Conversations With Hemingway) every Monday, and sometimes on Wednesday as well. Obviously, starting after the fact and then reporting once or twice a week what is being received six times a week means I can only continue to fall farther behind day by day.
On Tuesday, August 3, 2010, the guys upstairs suggested to me that it was time to catch up. So, beginning today, I intend to post transcripts of these sessions two or three per day, until the record catches up with the current moment. They have also suggested that I digest, analyze, and interpret this long series of communications, thus producing a book. I’m willing. Only time will tell whether I’m able. But there’s no reason why I can’t post the sessions in the meantime, and that’s what I propose to do.
So you’re going to see a lot more Conversations with Hemingway.
The series that I have been posting each Friday, calling it So You Think Your Life Was Wasted, is part of the same series of transmissions, only much earlier in time. I am beginning to think that when I do the analysis that has been suggested, I will find that the entire five-year sequence needs to be considered as one body of information, rather than two or more. And in any case to turn that series of transmissions into a book would require the same analytical work that this later series will require. So I think I will suspend posting those older transmissions pending a clearer sense of how the whole body of material hangs together.
