Life is a play. We have many roles. We are the director, the star, the supporting cast and staff, the good guy, the bad guy, the writer, etc. We choose those we interact with, usually by mutual agreement. Those who play our adversaries are friends. Those who play our worst enemies are often very good friends. We need to be able to trust those who may appear to be doing us the worst harm.

      We create the plot as a major learning experience. We set up events to facilitate our progress. We choose our parents and family members as reliable companions.

      Organized chaos is required so that everything works, so that everybody shows up and leaves in the correct order and as scheduled.

      The leaving often presents emotional challenges. We may remember this is a play and that we will see our companions when it is done but we still experience all the emotions connected with the events. Some are hard to deal with. Which may be why we choose to have them. We, as earth humans are here especially to master our emotions. We are here to react. We are not here to suppress feelings but to allow self to fully experience our emotions. This is why we have good and not so good events occur.

      Some hate surprises. As long as surprises are strongly disliked and/or feared, they will continue to occur. Whatever we have strong feelings about, is what we attract into our life. If we love playing video games, the opportunity to play them will keep popping up even if we decide we play them too much. We may need to tone down our liking them or figure out why we may be addicted to playing them.

      We may hate butterflies. This is an opportunity to face this preference and understand why. Then learn to not react. Or reverse the order. Learn to not react, then why we do.

      We may have strong desires, particularly in achieving certain goals. We may notice that after a person has reached a particular goal, they leave. Sometimes knowing this makes it harder for us to accept their leaving. This is another challenge set up for us. It is especially helpful if we can remember that we are naturally telepathic. We can converse with those who have left if we believe it.

      This writer had telepathic communication with her husband for over 20 years before he dropped his body. And it continued after he left.

      When he was born in the Bronx, his family did not speak English with him. His mother spoke Chickahominy. His father spoke M'hiacanu. His paternal grandmother, Ojibwa. Grandma Renie spoke Yiddish and Hebrew. His cousins spoke Mohawk and Seneca, the next door neighbors spoke Greek. He spoke Japanese with his Korean aikido instructor. He did not learn English until he went to school.

      As part of his life plan, he had a stroke before he was 40. The purpose of the stroke appears to be to have him remember his childhood languages. He had to relearn to speak English. There was a deli down the street run by a Korean family who spoke Japanese. Her husband would speak with them in Japanese then switch into Ojibwa. They took a trip across the northern United States visiting relatives. By the time they returned, he was speaking indigenous languages fluently.

      The only permanent result of the stroke appears to be he never again thought in English. Their private conversations were in M'hiacanu. She did not speak it nor even hear it correctly for years. They each spoke their own language aloud but picked up each other's thoughts telepathically. When he spoke M'hiacanu and she didn't catch it telepathically, she'd ask him to repeat it. He'd say "Talking to myself." She knew she only picked up what he wished her to hear. Which may have been frustrating to those monitoring their phone conversations.

      The first step in using telepathy is to accept the possibility. The next is to believe it. Then, when a departed, or a living. friend or relative connects with us, to accept it as real.

      Many have had the experience of thinking of someone, then having the phone ring with a call or text from that person. It is not a coincidence. There are no coincidences. So when our loved ones leave us, we may still keep in touch even if we are on opposite sides of a universe or creation. There is frequently a period of adjustment when our contact may be brief and irregular. However, if our communication with the departed one occurred daily, the pattern will continue if we wish. One favor departed souls ask: they would like to see us smile more. One told me "I'd really like to see you smile more when you think of me."

      Those who are no longer with us are usually in higher energy states than when incarnated. They have little challenge in doing more than one thing at the same time. They can usually chat with us while doing something else. We are not disturbing them. They are glad to speak with us. They may even become one of our spirit companions for the remainder of this life.

      Earth humans are created with a special purpose: to see how we excel in mastering self, especially in handling emotions.

      Our choice.
