    I’ve noticed that a lot of blog members struggle with not-so-nice spirits hanging around them. Erik gives up great advice on how to handle them. If you like this post, please share!

    Me: One blog member wants to know this: You said that once a psychopath passes, they’re relieved of their condition. That’s nice to know. So, we can presume that dementia and bipolar disease disappear, too. Is that right?  She goes on to say that Ted Bundy was cool about having spiritual contracts to kill those women. She’s wondering if some spirits are stuck in an earth memory phase, but, for her, it doesn’t appear to be so. What about evil spirits who torment us? They can seem to by psychopaths from our perspective, so are the latter not suffering a latent memory lapse of their previous human state—not psychopathic, but rather making a personality choice to be bad because that’s still the stage their spirit is in?  So basically she’s saying Ted Bundy passed over and was fine because what he did was part of a spiritual contract and had meaning. So, why are some of these spirits evil torment us?

    Erik: They obviously haven’t crossed over, Man. Like, you die; you have a choice. Do you stay on Earth in the lower dimensional planes or are you going to cross over to where your natural state of being would be, cuz you don’t have a fucking body? So, if you were crazy and didn’t believe in God and all that shit and you die, then guess what? You’re not—

    Erik (to someone else):  Yeah, I know.

    (Pause)

    Jamie: Who are you talking to? I didn’t say anything.

    (Long pause)

    Jamie bursts out into laughter. I’m left hanging.

    Jamie: Wow! Some other person in spirit was telling him, “Don’t put it that way.”

    Jamie (to Erik): Oh my god! Did you just get in trouble?

    I gasp.

    Erik: No, but it was a good point. I didn’t want to base the concept of going to Heaven on the belief in God.

    Me: Oh, yeah. Right.

    Erik: Cuz that’s not what gets you there.

    Jamie (to Erik): Who was that?

    Erik: No, don’t worry about it.

    Jamie: He’s giving me these hand signals like, “Shut the fuck up.”

    (Pause)

    Jamie (to Erik): Uh uh. You put me on the spot all the time!

    Me: So, it’s your turn, Erik.

    Jamie: Your turn, Buddy!

    (Pause)

    Jamie: It’s an archangel that watches him. He calls it part of his team.

    Me: Oh! Okay.

    Jamie (laughing): The team that’s helping him be a better spirit! A better person.

    Me: Aw.

    Jamie: And this was all formed because of his growing character on Earth.

    Me: Oh.

    Jamie: Yeah, because he has, uh (to Erik) you’re right. You do!

    Erik: Because I have a huge opportunity to teach people a simple truth not based in any religion. But, you know, sometimes you fuck up and say those things. That’s why I have them there. They’re like my autocorrect.

    Let’s hope it works better than the iPhone autocorrect. My brother in law, Jim, texted somebody about virtual reality and it ended up as “Vaginal reality.”

    Me: That’s good, Erik. Are they like your supervisors?

    Erik: Yes.

    Jamie: I looked at him and go, ‘You care!’ And he goes, “Of course I do!” But, you know, he just plays it off as if he’s some tough, rough kid, and then all of a sudden when you see that side of him, you realize how much work he’s putting into it.

    Me: God, yes. You work so hard, Sweetie.

    Jamie (with a slight quiver in her voice): That’s so awesome.

    Me: But sometimes you have fun doing it. It’s good that you are having a good time.

    Jamie: Aw, he just leans back in his chair and goes, “Ah, I love my job! This is me.”

    Me: That’s so awesome.

    Erik: So, yeah, you don’t have to believe in God to get to Heaven, but, if you had no belief about the afterlife and you were an asshole, you’re going to be an asshole still, just without a body. It’s in the higher dimensional—

    Jamie: I like that. “Higher dimensional.”

    Erik: –dimensional planes where those lower vibrational emotions just don’t resonate. So, of course when you cross over, all that bipolar crap and, you know, the need to kill people and to fuck people up—it’s just not really there. I mean, you can have those thoughts; you just can’t pass it on; you can’t really act on it. They just go flat. So, if they’re dead and they’re having those thoughts; you can pretty much say that son of a bitch hasn’t crossed over. They’re hanging in the lower dimensional.

    Jamie (giggling): Dimensional! I like that.

    Me: He’s got the lingo down!

    Jamie: Yeah. Dead people lingo. The dimensional.

    Me: Sounds like a TV show. The Dimensional. Or a band.

    Jamie: Oh, wouldn’t that be fun.

    Erik: Ahem. So, if you’re hanging out with a spirit that’s a little tweaky-tweaky, first of all, I’d say. ‘What the fuck did you do?’ You’re obviously not protecting yourself. You’re entertaining this kind of interaction.’ So, I’d say, ‘Shame on you!’ cuz you have more power than Mr. Crazy Dead Person! I would tighten that up, and then I would start laying better boundaries for that shit to get away from you, and if you are the “chosen one” to help Mr. Crazy Dead Person cross over, then fucking man up! You know, do it! Do your job. Help it. Who knows why the crazy dead person picks that one person who probably has no fucking knowledge about how to help a dead person cross over. It could just be this living memory of who they used to be.

    Me: Exactly. Wait; let me tell my sister to get the dog. She’s barking. She’s a little Yorkie puppy. Weighed 12 oz. when we got her, and she’s still so tiny. She wants to play with the cat.

    (I try to call my sister, but she must be outside.)

    Me: She’s supposed to be watching her. Okay, go ahead.

    Erik: I was wondering how long you were going to take that barking.

    Me: I know. Okay, go ahead, Erik.

    Erik: I don’t remember where I was, cuz I went over to the house to see the dog bark.

    Me: Okay. Anything else?

    Erik: Nah. Just tell that person that if they have someone like that around, they’re the ones who are fucked up. Set the boundaries. Tell them this is not what you’re looking for; this is not what you’ll allow.

    This is a very short YouTube of Erik sharing some of the struggles we have as humans. If you are human, you need to watch. If you’re not and you’re eavesdropping and thinking, “Nanny nanny boo-boo. It must suck to be human,” go back to your alternate universe!

    HUMAN EXPERIENCE, PART THREE

    *******************************

    Dear Reader,

    The journey on which you’re about to embark will take you through stories that are deeply personal and involves a relationship between a mother and her son.

    As a physician raised by two atheists, I had no personal belief system about life after death. In a word, I was a confirmed skeptic. As my journey progressed, my mind opened. It is my sincerest hope that yours will open as well and that you will have a greater understanding of your own life and what’s to come ahead.

    Although Erik sometimes paints a rosy picture of the afterlife, time and time again he stresses that suicide is not the answer to one’s problems. If you struggle, please understand that the information in my blog and my book is no substitute for professional help. Please click here for a list of resources for help when you find yourself considering taking your own life. Know that they are readily available when you feel that hopelessness and despair that many of us feel from time to time in our lives.

    I refuse all donations and ad revenue on the blog. It is my dream to one day establish a nonprofit organization that delivers a variety of spiritual services for those who have lost loved ones to suicide and cannot afford that assistance on their own. It’s a mission of love, sacrifice, and dedication.

    Love and light,

    Elisa

    Erik really shines on this one. Sorry to start with part one on a Friday, because you’re going to be writhing in anticipation until Monday, but no pain no gain. I also would like to announce that the regular small group channeling call scheduled for 4/11 is sold out, but the griever’s call where Erik will bring forth a loved one for you to communicate with still has one spot open. The date for that is 4/18. Jamie also has the channeling call schedule up for all of her calls at this link: EVENTS

    ************************

    Note: I’m going to start using plain text rather than italics from here on out. (Hopefully I’ll remember). My editor told me it’s easier on the reader’s eyes. Feedback?

    Me: Let’s talk about destiny, Erik. Can you talk about the spiritual contracts souls make before incarnating?

    (Pause)

    Jamie (sternly): Okay, straighten up, Erik. Come on. (To me): Okay, so you want him to tell you about destiny, how it’s planned before reincarnation?

    Me: Yeah. I mean, part of it has to do with spiritual contracts, right?

    Jamie: Yeah.

    Me: So, I thought maybe we’d start out with that.

    Erik: First of all, we want to ditch the concept of karma, because people with use the term, karma, as an excuse for the shit they deal with in their life that they don’t feel like they’re responsible for. They’re just experiencing this shit.

    Me: Mm hm,

    Erik: Okay. There’s really no karma.

    Jamie (laughing): He’s making sounds like, “Poo-poo,” and “Blech”, and “Yuck,” and “just get that out.”

    I giggle.

    Erik: Now, because there’s not karma, and, which means you’re not held by honor or by any greater system to balance your own scale—we have to go back to balancing your own scale which means you have a judgment system in place.

    Damn, he’s all over the place.

    Erik: It means there is a right and there is a wrong, which there isn’t. There is no judgment scale so there is no karma. Now some people use the eye for and eye. You know, if you caused pain to one person, then you must suffer pain. That definitely has some validity. What you drop into the pond ripples out to the edges and comes back to the place where the pebble was dropped, but it’s not karma. It’s not a punishment program.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: Okay. I just wanted to get that out, cuz let’s say you’re choosing to live in a life that still sucks shit and you’re thinking, “Ah I must be paying”—

    Jamie: I love that! He’s talking in an old Jewish man voice. Nice.

    Jamie laughs.

    Erik: “Ah, I must be paying for it because of what I did in another lifetime or what I did to somebody else.” Even though there’s no karma, people still wanna play the victim, because they don’t know how to take responsibility for how the environment is behaving. They feel like they’re not in control over the environment. They’re correct. They’re not in control, but they’re connected to it, and how you choose to perceive it changes how it affects you.

    Me: Ah!

    Erik: Right? So, you could play the role of the victim, but if you had a really good teacher, I don’t know, say, like myself cuz I’m so awesome—

    Jamie (giggling): Erik!

    Jamie and I bust into a laugh.

    Erik: –come in and say, “Hey, just tweak how you’re looking at what’s happening. Then all of a sudden, you finally feel a part; you’re connected to the environment. It’s no longer a victim circumstance, but a participant one. I wanna know where people get off on labeling themselves (in a whiny voice) the victim, the poor person, you know, the one shit always happens to, they’re cursed, they’re this, but yet they’re really good people and they pray and they’re really positive and they have a really good heart. (Sarcastically) Oh, these poor people! Where do they get off in doing this when they talk all this shit, but they don’t do anything about it? They’re not proactive in their life at all! They pray, (with great sarcasm) “God, please come and take this depression, this sadness, this curse away from me! Oh Great Being of Whomever”—

    Me: Erik, you gotta wrap this one up, because we have some questions to go on to!

    Erik: Oh, c’mon, Mom! I’m having a good time!

    All three of us laugh.

    Me: I know, but Jesus Christ, we have other questions, boy!

    Erik: Well, that’s great! We’ll get to them!

    This century, I hope.

    Erik: Just listen.

    Jamie chuckles.

    Erik: So, they pray to this god to do all of these things for them, but they’re not putting in any action or anything. All right. So, the whole contract thing—

    Thank you, Jesus.

    Erik: —comes into place when you come into life and you’re choosing whatever situation whether it’s poverty, richness, joy, sadness—neither one is greater than the other—whatever you’re living in—is to help you learn some kind of life lesson that you’re attracted to learning. Is it possible that you’re basing this on another life? Absolutely! I mean, who the fuck says, “I want to learn how to ride a bike. I really fucking wanna learn how to ride a bike”, and then get on the bike once and fall down and hurt themselves and never get on a bike again? That’s stupid!

    Me: Yeah!

    Erik: So, you get into one life and you say,” I really wanna be a pilot. I really wanna be a pilot”, and you learn how to fly, but you crash, and you die. That really sucks. So, you get into another life. “I really wanna be a pilot. I really wanna be a pilot!” You try it again, man! That’s why we have contracts in place, so that we can hit the certain notes to make our song. Contracts help shape our destinies.

    Me: Ah!

    Okay guys. You’ve GOT to watch this YouTube my daughter made. It’s the 21 things you don’t know about her. Hilarious.

    I know, I know. You’re probably wondering about the title. I’m giving you guys a two-fer today because both questions yielded pretty short answers. Still, Erik came through with his usual wit and wisdom.

    Crying

    Me: Can spirits cry?

    Erik: Yeah, if we really want to.

    Me: Would they want to or is it more like, “Oh, let me see what it feels like to cry.” Or do they ever feel sad enough that they want to cry and release that sadness?

    Erik: It’s pretty weird here. You don’t really get that overwhelming need to cry as a release. We don’t process struggle the same way. On Earth there’s a lot of Force A and Force B.  Cause and effect. Right and wrong. Positive and negative. There are a lot of opposites whereas in this higher dimensional plane, there are not a lot of opposites. It’s based a lot on unity. So you don’t quite feel that tug or separation. We don’t get that kind of, “I need to cry. I’m misunderstood. I’ve been, you know, shamed, walked on.” We don’t really come across that easily.

    Me: So, why would a spirit want to cry?

    Erik: Well, like sometimes –

    Jamie: Which is, I had it this morning. He’s giving me permission to give my example. I had a mother, a caller, call in for a reading, and her mother had passed away. So, her mother had come in to talk. And she just burst into tears. She’s trying to talk through it, and finally she just told me—me, Jamie—“You know, I didn’t expect to react this way. I’m really content with where I am. It’s just all these emotions came back, and they’re just exiting through this crying.” It was just this purge. It was the first communication, audio communication through a medium, that she had with her daughter, and they got a lot of conversation under the belt. A lot of healing.

    Me: Good.

    Jamie: But the mother was so surprised, being deceased and content where she is, that so much came out through tears and, you know, sobbing. So, that kind of thing can be that they’re lowering their vibration to communicate with a human, and in lowering it, they process the energy differently.

    Me: And that makes them cry?

    Erik: Yeah. It can come out in tears. It could be that they decided that they want to cry, that this is part of their personality and how they work, but the crying would come from internal inflection. It would not come from and external, “Oh, I’m poking you and hurting you and making you cry!”

    Me: Oh, I understand. Do they cry tears?

    Erik: Tears? If you’re a human and you’re watching a spirit kind of release energy that way, then, yeah, you’re going to describe it as tears falling down their face, because that’s what you’re used to calling it.

    Me: Mm hm.

    Erik: But no. No, we don’t have tears.

    Hoarding

    Me: Okay, now when we were talking about hoarding, I forgot to ask the main thing! What’s the spiritual basis for hoarding? We talked about why people hoard and all that, but what is the spiritual basis?

    Erik: The fear that it’s going to be taken away. Come on. When you died and came to Earth—

    Jamie (laughing at what Erik is about to say): Oh my god, that’s funny.

    Erik: A spiritual way of looking at it is when they leave Home and come to Earth—when they die, then come back to Earth, you lose everything.

    Me: Oh!

    Erik: And some have fear that they’ll never be able to have a life where it’s not going to be taken way from them. You know, there are some circumstances where—

    (Long pause)

    Jamie: I’m listening. Hold on.

    Me: Sure.

    Erik: There are some circumstances where a spirit is, let’s just say, being a little bit of a dick, and is supposed to be reincarnating. They have this other thing that they, themselves, wanted to learn, you know, because reincarnation is self-driven. God’s not around going, “You have to do that shit, and you gotta go over there. You promised me you’d do that!”

    I chuckle softly.

    Erik: No, it’s totally self-driven, but sometimes they fucking cop out, and that’s why we have people like Gracie who are like, “Listen. Stay true to yourself. This is what you’re doing.” And then they come back in with a little bit of a kick, you know, a disappointment about being alive. They’re pissed. It’s their own fucking fault.

    Jamie: He’s laughing, He thinks it’s funny.

    Erik: So, they feel like they’ve had everything ripped from them or taken from them—

    Me: Mm hm.

    Erik: Which is bullshit, but, you know, people believe what they wanna believe. Spiritually, they’ll get to Earth and then they’ll try to hold on to every little piece of shit they can get their hands on, because they don’t want it to be taken away.

    Me: What a mess.

    Erik: And they create those patterns in their relationships on Earth. In their family, everywhere. They get made fun of; they get abandoned. Oh, it’s crap.

    Me: They just wanna cling on to whatever they can. Except people, I guess.

    Anyone up for Spring cleaning?

    As promised, here’s part one in a two part series of Erik’s two cents on this recent horrific tragedy.

    Me: Let’s talk about the Sandy Hook shooting. I just can’t watch TV anymore. It was just too horrible. It triggered too much for me. How are the children doing now, Erik? Are they doing okay?

    Erik: They all crossed over. A lot of the entities who came in to help cross the children over ended up trying to manage and help all of the kids and children left behind. It was amazing—

    Jamie (to Erik): Seriously? No, I—yeah.

    (Pause)

    Jamie: He’s comparing it to the twin towers. Um, but yet in the towers, most of the media attention was on the adults and on the terrorism, so everybody in the world was kind of involved in it. But nobody immediately took on a fight.

    Erik: Mostly because it was a war issue, and not everybody is on the front lines of a war. Not everyone is pro-war, you know. But here, in this case, we have these kids who passed away, and the United States all stood up. Almost one third of the pop—

    (Long pause)

    Jamie: I was trying to ask him what he was talking about.

    Erik: One third of the population was standing up starting to fight. Mostly they were parents. They went to the school and asked questions and were demanding reaction in their home town, in their home school, even though they’re not close to the place where this shooting happened in Connecticut. All of a sudden we had this—I guess you would call it mass outbreak where, you know, the guides and the spirits came in to handle the crossing, and they were swamped with this uprising of energy throughout the United States from parents. It was insane to watch the movement, and it’s still happening. It’s about time, but you never want to think that it takes, you know, the death of twenty kids –even one—in this way to end up with schools finally saying, “Oh yeah, yeah. We do have some weak spots.”

    Me (sadly): Yeah. Is Erik one of the people helping these children? Erik, are you one of the spirits helping? I’m sure they have many.

    Erik: They do have many. I have stepped in here and there, but I’m trying to handle more of—

    Jamie: Aw! His blog members that are parents who are having reactions.

    Me: Yeah.

    Erik: I’m taking care of my peeps first, you know, kinda helping you as well. I didn’t go as global or as wide as I normally would.

    Me: Mm hm. Okay. Is this some sort of contract?

    Erik: Damn.

    Me: What?

    Jamie: He was just talking about the feeling. It was really awful for him. That’s why he said damn.

    Me: Yeah.

    Jamie and I choke back tears.

    Erik: Yes. For the dude, yes, there was a contract. Most of the kids, they designed their lives to check out early, but not all 20 of them, no. No way. They knew they were going to be involved in a tragedy in this nature at a young age, but not involved with death. So, the dude fucked up on many levels.

    Me: In other words he killed those who were not supposed to be part of the contract, but in what other ways did he mess up?

    Erik: Well, that he even came in with a fucked up contract like this. Sorry. I’m not the one to place judgment, you know. People are who they are. It’s just I get a little crazy when I get around kids.

    Me: Yeah. I know how you are.

    Jamie (touched): Aw! He’s telling me he would have been a really good dad.

    Me (sadly): Yeah.

    Erik: I have been in other lives, but I could have done it this life.

    Me: Yeah, I know.

    Erik: The other way he fucked up was that it wasn’t supposed to be of this magnitude. It was supposed to be more family involved, but he took it public. His main contract was supposed to be more private. More personal. Some of the kids who died signed up to die the way they did as their own contract. 

    Me: So, he was only supposed to kill family members?

    Erik: Yeah.

    Jamie: Did he kill family members?

    Me: Yeah, I think he killed his mother, but why would that, uh, what would have been the lessons there? How would that have helped so much?

    Erik: It would have been an ancestral lesson and not a worldwide one.

    Me: Okay, and what would that lesson have been? I don’t understand.

    Erik: What? About killing your mom instead of killing 20 kids?

    Me: Yeah, would that be a private lesson for him and his family?

    Erik: Yes, that’s really how it should have been, but he got off his rocker. The help he was supposed to receive never showed up.

    Me: Oh, so the family should have helped him instead of abandoning him?

    Erik: Yeah.

    Me: Okay. I see. Well, in the end, will it help society do something about our mental health system?

    Erik: Unfortunately, no. All that’s showing up is safety and security in schools.

    Me: Okay, and what should we do? I mean, we have armed guards in banks protecting our money, but we don’t have them protecting our own children. I think that’s kind of sad, really.

    Jamie: Oh my god. I have never thought about it that way!

    Me: Yep. It shows you where our priorities lie.

    Jamie: Oh my god. Wow, you just put that in perspective.

    Me: So, what should we do?

    Jamie (laughing): Erik comes over and whacks me in the head, and he goes, “Enlightened!” And I go, “Yeah, that kind of made my stomach get real sick.” What did you just say, Elisa?

    Me: So, what do we do? What do we do to protect our children?

    Erik: First of all it should be the structures of the schools not making it an open policy. Many schools are that way because they’re considered public. But if it’s considered a care system, which any school is—

    Me: What do you mean by “care system”?

    Erik: A location that provides care for kids under the age of 18. Like yeah, they’re providing an education, but it’s also—

    Me: Babysitting.

    Erik: Well, yeah. Care providing. Especially for the younger ones. A few things I see that need to happen: The structure of the building needs to change. Not to where they look more prison-like. Fuck that. That’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about the only access point to the school is through the actual office. The office shouldn’t be hidden in the middle of the campus. Or tucked upstairs where there’s a nice view. Fuck that. Where cars park and access, entryways through playgrounds and things of that nature need to be extremely monitored and set up in ways where you can’t get in, but you can get out in many, many ways. The doors lock from the outside, but if there’s an emergency like a fire, the child can open that door to get out. It so makes sense. I can’t believe people are this crazy. It’s so fucked up.

    Me: Well, what if they just mow down the entire administrative staff like this guy did? They buzzed him through, apparently.

    Erik: If it’s a place of care providing—

    Jamie: I know you’re showing me the image, but I don’t know what it’s called. Detector.

    Me: Oh, like a metal detector?

    Erik: Yeah. Those should be placed at the only entrance you can come in. They shouldn’t be at all the doors you come in. Just the main one.

    Me: Yeah, but if somebody comes in, what can you do if there’s no armed guard to neutralize the situation?

    Erik: No, every school needs to have the detector at the front and a security guard and that’s that person’s job.

    Me: Okay. What would be good is to give those jobs to the soldiers coming back from war, because they’ll be looking for jobs. There aren’t that many jobs out there for our veterans, which is pretty sad, really.

    Erik: Yeah, that’s fucking brilliant.

    Me: See? I have skills!

    Erik: Yeah, you do. You rock.

    I’m sure you’ve all been waiting for the results of the innie/outie poll with baited breath, so without further ado, here they are:

    Outie: 91%

    Innie: 9%

    Please know that this was all in jest. Whether you have an innie or an outite and nothing to do with those little tornadoes and stumpy things. I think it’d be fun to have more of these polls with our entries, though. Maybe y’all could come up with some suggestions as long as we keep religion and politics out of it! :-)  Let’s start making a list. I also think if we have these polls it might encourage everyone to share the Channeling Erik site on Facebook and other social avenues. You thoughts? Now for some Erik:

    Me: Erik, Where would you rather be, the earthly plane or where you are now, your mission not withstanding? Pretend like you don’t have the mission you have now.

    Erik: And I had to be myself?

    Me: Well, yeah! What other choice would you have?

    There’s a long pause throughout which I can hear Jamie’s quiet but raspy laugh.

    Erik: Come on, that’s just—

    Jamie: Erik, just answer it.

    Erik: I guess I’d rather be in the spiritual plane.

    Me: Okay, why?

    Erik: Cuz of the difficulties I had while I was alive. If I could come back without the mental disorders, I’d do that.

    Me: Yeah, okay, so what if you could come back without the mental disorders, the tics, the teasing from your peers and all of that?

    Erik: Okay, I’d come to Earth again.

    Me: So, what would you like better, the afterlife without your mission or the earthly plane without the mental disorders?

    Erik: I’d go back to Earth without the mental disorders. But I’d stay in the afterlife if the mission was a factor.

    Me: Wow, interesting. I wasn’t expecting that. I thought the spiritual plane was so much cooler! So, what do you like about Earth that you can’t have in the afterlife?

    Erik: Pot.

    Jamie (laughing hard): No!

    Me (laughing): You can get that same high over there, Erik! C’mon!

    Jamie continues to laugh.

    Me: Think of all the pizza you can manifest over there, too. And nachos. Cheese dribbling down your chin. No cheese slap pain.

    Erik: Exactly! Earth! There’s just this physical element, this physical experience you can’t replicate anywhere else.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: That makes the suffering increase ten-fold, you know.

    Me: I know. But I bet when you transition back to the afterlife, you think, “Look how trivial those hardships were. Why did I get so bent out of shape about it? I was whining for nothing!”

    A couple of days ago, I posted about borderline personality and one of the blog members wanted to know more about a possible cure for the disorder. Erik had a lot to say on the matter, most of it ranting on a soapbox digressing in all sorts of directions. ADHD still persists in the spirit world I guess.

    Me: One of the blog members has a question that came up after I posted what you said about borderline personality disorder. She’s worried about her granddaughter who apparently suffers from the condition, because she is the mother of two children. Her concern is her granddaughter’s depression and overreaction to everything will affect those children. So, Erik you talked about mental illnesses will eventually be cured and how there are natural cures that are being held secret, because Big Pharma wants to profit from selling the medications they market. Obviously natural modalities can’t be patented. The blog member doesn’t really think it’s right of you, Erik, to tell us there’s a cure without stating what it is.

    Erik: Is that what she wrote?

    Me: Yeah.

    Erik chuckles.

    (Pause)

    Erik: It was just a premonition that I wanted to give people to let them know that part of this science meets spirituality thing will help us understand the brain more, the chemical reactions more—then we’re able to actually cure the mental diseases. A lot of that is not in function at the present time, and what is in existence is underground because of the FDA.

    Me: Oh, okay. It’s underground, but somebody knows about it? Is that what you’re saying?

    Erik: Yeah, it’s going to come across—

    Jamie (to Erik): You mean come out?

    Erik: Yeah, it’ll come out more in a three to four year period. Then there’ll be a huge increase in the knowledge and understanding of the human brain.

    Me: Okay. Will it be medicinal, or will it be something else?

    Jamie: Not really medicinal. He shows me more of it being actual brain stimulation or brain treatment.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: A lot of the growth right now is working on memories—how memories are stored in the brain, how it retrieves images and emotions. Once they understand how it logs it in history, science is going to be able to wire certain emotions that are triggered. They’re going to be able to get a person to fire off a certain set of neurons to help rectify an imbalanced chemical.

    Jamie: Does that—it’s a great visual that I’m having but the words, does it even make sense?

    Me: Yes. Yes, it does. Very much so.

    Jamie: Okay.

    Me: So, what you’re saying, Erik, is that there’s nothing that you’re keeping secret from us. You’re saying that this is something that will be developed.

    Erik: It’s in the process, yes.

    Me: It’s in the process of being developed.

    Erik: Yeah. Humans have to do it on their own. Spirits don’t jump down and go, “All right. You didn’t do it in time enough, and people are suffering!” I mean, fuck yeah. Everybody’s suffering. Everybody suffers from different things. I did. I suffered horribly. If the answers were always available, what the fuck good is the suffering?

    Me: Yeah, and I guess the cure is not as simple as retrieving peat moss in the backyard, boiling it in snake oil and dribbling it over cornflakes. It’s not some currently available secret like that—something you’re keeping from all of us. It’s something that’s being developed and humans need to do it on their own and at their own pace.

    Erik: Right, and personally, I think cannabis is highly unrecognized for what it can do for people who have depression.

    Me: Oh boy. Here we go again. You’re the universe’s leading pot spokesman. What about for borderline personality disorder. Would it be helpful for that?

    Erik: Fuck yes! What is wrong with people? But not every type of cannabis plant will get you the result for that specific kind of illness. You have to look at it and dose it in the right way.

    Me: Well, how can you figure that out?

    Erik: Well, that’s already being tested and used. That would be the shit that I’d be annoyed with if it’s not public knowledge. That’s the stuff that I’d get on your computer and start researching about and tell the government, “Fuck you, I’m allowed to put this on my Google search engine.”

    Jamie lets out a loud guffaw.

    Erik: But you gotta tell this woman, you know, her granddaughter’s kids signed up for this for a reason. For her to get all concerned about how the mother is, she also needs to know that those kids—they saw this. They knew that this would happen, and they wanted to be a part of it anyway. That’s like when you look at somebody who’s severely handicapped, you gotta look at them and you gotta know that they walked into this. They knew that this was what their life was going to be like, even it looks like the deepest, heaviest struggle you have ever seen—you gotta turn your eyes.

    Me: Oof.

    Erik: Or the images on TV of the starving children in Africa—you’ve got to know that that little soul said, “That shit’s for me! I’m going there right now! I’m doing it. I want to know what that’s like.” Now, whether you want to stand on the outside and say, “Oh, that’s my responsibility to take care of them,” that’s your own shit. You can take responsibility or not, but that woman who’s writing in needs to know she doesn’t need to worry about her granddaughter or her great grandchildren. If she wants to play a role and be the best at this—like her very best—it is to  offer help only when it’s asked for.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: People step in and start taking control and shit, and all of a sudden everything’s lost and the whole action is just stupid. Then it’s gotta repeat itself again life after life after life, you know? It’s going to happen again and again and again until we all get the lesson. Why won’t people see that?

    Me: It’s called being human, Erik. Don’t you remember.

    Erik: Yeah, I do. I do. I hate those motherfuckers—

    Jamie (giggling): He’s on such a soapbox now.

    Me: He does get into his excited little rants sometimes.

    Erik: I hate those motherfuckers who come in and just totally strip all the lessons and responsibilities and say, “This is how it’s going to be done.” No offense Christians out there, but that’s what those whole traveling ministries were doing, coming into new lands and everything and just stripping them of exactly who they were and saying, “But we have the best belief system, and here it is if you want to be saved.” Fuck that. People use that still today! They come into a situation to kids who “can’t learn” and they go, “I’ll strip you of that. Here’s how you should be learning.

    Me: Yeah. That happened a lot with you, Erik.

    Erik: Yeah, fuck that! Listen to the person. Listen to the culture. Listen to what’s around them and start giving them what they’re asking for, and then use that for the platform to be able to teach what you know and see if that will work. But fucking-A egos, go to sleep!

    I giggle, wondering if he’s going to get a nosebleed way up high on that soapbox.

    Jamie (to Erik): Just go to sleep? You didn’t tell them to go to hell or anything like that? You didn’t tell their egos to go fuck off? You just tell them to go to sleep?

    Me: Go night night.

    All three of us get a good laugh before going on to the next question.

    Have a great weekend, get some rest and pray that Erik doesn’t prank you while you’re going night night, my CE Fam.

    As many of you may have noticed, the media gallery with Erik’s videos and photos have been down for a few days, but they’re back up. It was only a matter of an expired credit card. Sigh. I hope all of you had a wonderful Labor Day Weekend. Now let’s explore the spiritual aspects of borderline personality so that we can better understand those who suffer this complex condition.

    At the beginning of the session, Jamie’s phone line went out for a few seconds and she said that after that, everything went haywire. She hung up the phone and the Internet went out. Later the phone blipped and wouldn’t come back on.

    Jamie: Then I’m hearing laughter and I asked, ‘Erik, are you doing that?’

    Me: I figured!

    Jamie: Couldn’t just make it easy. Actually, I heard him laughing when I left the house today, and I got to giggling and said, ‘Whatever you’re up to, just—‘

    Me: And we were just talking about how good he was being!

    Jamie: I know! Diplomatic and everything. No, no. That was temporary. Everything went haywire on my side, and so when the Internet came back up, I sent you an email asking you if you were enjoying the pranks today!

    Me: Well, how else would we recognize the boy?

    Jamie: Has he done anything to you this morning?

    Me: Not yet, thank god! So, is Erik there? Is he hiding from us?

    Jamie: Yep. Loud and clear. He’s not even hiding. Oh, he owns up to all his nastiness and pranks.

    Me: Yeah, and he’s really proud of them too.

    Erik: Yeah. Hey Mom, I love you extra special today.

    Hm. I wonder if he’s just trying to suck up to me like he used to when his mischief or misbehavior was about to be revealed.

    Me: I love you extra special too, Baby.

    Erik: Because today is going to be a slow day for you.

    Me: Slow mentally?

    Erik (laughing): Yes!

    Me: That’s not good. My baseline sucks as it is. Okay, I have a couple of questions. Let’s talk about borderline personality disorder. What’s the spiritual basis for that? You know, those are the people that have abandonment issues, and if their family or friends do one thing wrong, they go hero to zero at the flip of a switch. What’s up with that?

    Erik (chuckling): Don’t you think we all have that to some degree?

    Me: Yeah, but for these people, it’s a personality disorder that affects their ability to function in relationships and life overall.

    Erik: It’s a form of alienation—of trying to have a life of being, um, like the contract is to say, “Please misunderstand me so that I can understand myself better.” It’s almost like forcing them to be on a one-man team.

    Me: Wow, that makes perfect sense. 

    Erik: But it gets misunderstood because other people feel that the person doesn’t know how to be on a team, or they’re being punished for who they are. And it’s not that. It’s really just meant for them to, um, not really be alone—not like in a sense of what we think is: “Nobody loves me; I’m all by myself; I’m abandoned.”

    Me: You mean being independent in the search for their own identity?

    Erik: Yes, because it’s not, um, they leach—

    Jamie (surprised on hearing what she’s about to translate): Oh my gosh.

    Erik: When you come across these people, you know in a past life they had the extreme opposite or they’ve been a complete leach to an idea or a person. In that past life they just surrendered who they were: their ideas, their thoughts, everything. They just surrendered their identity. So, it’s one extreme to the next. All of the mental illnesses—

    (pause)

    Jamie (to Erik): Really?

    Erik: Yeah. All of the mental illnesses don’t have to be played out for an entire lifetime. They just have to be willing to correct it by learning why it is there for them, even if it’s a chemical issue. Doctors now know how to correct those things. They just don’t want to put it on the market.

    Me: How awful.

    Erik: Yes it is. It is, because they can’t patent what nature automatically creates for us for free.

    Me: Mm.

    Heads up: Be sure to friend Erik and me on Facebook if you haven’t already and join the Channeling Erik group! Also, I’d be forever grateful if you’d continue to share this blog every day through the social venues posted with each entry. I know it’s hard to remember, but…

    Before we let Erik raze our penal code (I hear him giggling at the word even now) and rebuild a new one, I’d like to share a wonderful experience. A read. An excellent read, Dear Mallory, courtesy of our own, Lisa Richards. Here’s a bit about her backstory:

    In 2011, Lisa Richards, a clinical social worker, lost her only child, her eighteen year-old daughter Mallory, to suicide

    Desperate to unearth some good from her daughter’s self-inflicted death, Lisa collected letters to Mallory from her friends and loved ones.  She also began writing to her daughter.  The result is Dear Mallory:  Letters To A Teenage Girl Who Killed Herself.  In 2012, Lisa established New Middle Press to publish her tribute book to her daughter. Dear Mallory offers compassion and understanding, and its contributors hope to increase awareness for people everywhere, including teenagers and adults, mental health professionals, survivors who’ve lost loved ones, and people at risk for suicide, about how we influence one another and can make a positive difference in each others’ lives.  Please join us in helping to eliminate the epidemic of suicide, and to decrease the stigma still all too often associated with mental illness.  With over one million people worldwide taking their lives every year, none of us can afford to turn away.

    This book can help teens and adults who suffer, because it encourages people to look beyond their immediate pain to future possibilities, including the potential that exists in current loving relationships which too often can be overlooked. It can help the parents of troubled teens, and those who’ve lost loved ones to suicide, because it offers valuable insights and wisdom in a personal, straightforward manner. This book should be mental health professionals’ vade mecum for guidance, support and reference in their practices. The writing is so real, so raw; it speaks to the depths of the soul. It speaks to the sufferers as well as to the survivors who ride like the legendary phoenix, unafraid to deal directly and compassionately with complex issues. It speaks to those who otherwise might not listen. It speaks the unarticulated to those who do listen. There were no dry eyes as I read your letters and the heartfelt responses of those who love Mallory. You have created such a profoundly poingnant and poetic tribute to a beautiful daughter who still shines, and who still may teach us all. ~Paul J. Lane, Ph.D., Clinical Psychologist

    If you’re interested, you can find the book on Amazon or at www.newmiddlepress.com.

    **All profits from sales of Dear Mallory are used to help people at risk for suicide**

    ****************************************

    Okay, Erik. Time to wow us.

    Me: Okay, here’s a controversial one. I think the penal code is messed up. In my opinion, it’s too punitive. A lot of people who get arrested and thrown behind bars are in pain; they need help.

    Erik: And we don’t provide it for them. All we do is we punish.

    Me: We just punish, punish, punish. I think we’d go a long way but helping people and showing compassion. These are often just people with a lot of pain inside, so what can we do, Erik? I think we might just need to look at things a little bit differently.

    Erik: Hell, yeah. Wouldn’t it be great if we really didn’t have so many jail cells? We don’t need so many of them, because people are in them for the wrong reasons, first of all—and for stupid ass reasons. And if you get arrested and it’s for a certain kind of a crime or what not, you should immediately be placed in a six-week program.

    Me: Yeah!

    Erik: We still have to pay for your fucking food anyways if you’re in jail, so why don’t we give you a good place to be and give you love, attention and therapy.

    Me: Mm hm.

    Erik: And they do a six-week program, and then they’re under like a house arrest—they’re monitored for another six weeks and we see how they interact with life. Then, if they already have gone through that program and they get arrested again, then let’s put your ass in jail if that’s what you need.

    Me: Yeah, but there’s also the problem that these people get records that can’t be expunged, and they can’t get jobs because everybody does background checks now. That totally sucks, too.

    Erik: Yeah, because it always puts a label on them. I think if you go through the six-week program successfully and it shows that you’ve done rehabilitation work on yourself, but it doesn’t show that you’ve been placed in a jail. There needs to be levels. A person has to have the right to go back to a life.

    Me: I know. Exactly.

    Erik: If that’s not going to be offered, why the fuck get better? If you’re not going to get what you want to begin with, you have nothing to lose.

    Me: Yeah, one person gets arrested for ½ a gram of cocaine when they were 17, they can’t even rent an apartment or find a job for like 15 years. They can’t even be a Wal-Mart greeter, for god’s sake. They’re options are pretty much drug mules or tattoo artists. Not that the latter’s bad, but I doubt they do background checks. It’s ridiculous. They get punished for the rest of their lives for something they did when they were so young! It makes no sense. So, what do you do with the murderers and the serial rapists, though? What so you do with them, Erik? I mean, they’re people in pain, too, but still, they’re a threat to the public.

    Erik: They are, but I would still put them in the six-week program. I would put them in a different kind of program—more solitude like away from community and so forth. Then I would take them through different levels of processing. I wouldn’t put them back into society right away. I really think that after the six-week program that they need to go live in a commune somewhere with other people like themselves so that they can reach certain markers in their lives to where they can be reintroduced back into the community. I think they should be privately tagged, not publically tagged, if they’ve gone through this whole process and rehabilitation because if we can see how they honestly tick and if they’re really successful, like they know they’re going to heal, then we give them a chance. We put them back into society and monitor them from a distance. But building that community in the commune, they’ll have the comfort to be honest to say they’re really fucked up in the head and that they really don’t wanna do real life anymore. If that’s the case, we just keep them in the fucking commune, man!

    Me: Yeah!

    Erik: Make them do something successful; teach the bastards how to knit!

    Jamie and I laugh.

    Me: They can be a self-sustaining community, of course.

    Erik: Yes!

    Me: If they need to murder or rape each other, so be it.

    Erik: Just don’t let ‘em on a farm; they’ll rape the goats and the sheep.

    Me: Erik! You bad boy!

    Jamie and I laugh hard.

    Before we talk about Erik’s view on sociopaths (and I hope the title has not offended any readers who (gulp) are) I’d like to announce that I may have to change my Facebook profile picture soon. You see, all of the stress I’ve had with my parents being ill and my mother’s death, among other things, has caused me to start losing my hair. I’m beginning to to wonder if I need to go for the Sinead O’Connor look. Hm. Nah, it’s not really that bad. But I do try to look at the bright side. Saving money on shampoo, haircuts and covering up those pesky grey roots. Taking the focus off the bags under my eyes and those wrinkles. I could go on and on. Oh okay. I’ll shut up and let Erik take the stage.

    Me: What’s behind psychopaths/sociopaths? What’s the spiritual basis for that disease?

    Erik: People can not let go of this, right?

    Me: Of course not.

    Jamie (to Erik): That’s a weird image.

    Me: Probably not a pretty one.

    Jamie: It’s kind of hard to explain, but do you know those fiberoptic lights?

    Me: Oh yeah. Yeah.

    Jamie: They usually come in a stand and there’s maybe like fifty of them that come out with all of the lights on at the top.

    Erik: That’s how, energetically, we see sociopaths or psychopaths. There’s only one point at the base that grounds all of these different lights together. It’s like having one soul, but it’s torn 98% and only two percent is a solid mass. It’s like you took scissors to it and just shredded it down from the top and left the base together. So, they only have a small percentage that they can collect and ground and get their ideas together while the rest of it is shredded.

    Me: Into each of those little fibers?

    Erik: Yes.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: The lesson of it, of course, is self-understanding. Our culture doesn’t teach us self-understanding. It just teaches us to point at other things and say, “Light. Plant.” Everything’s external to us.

    Me: Exactly.

    Erik: It doesn’t point at self and say, you know, “Body. Love. Tension.” So, it’s a bad fix. A bad cocktail. Not many sociopaths live to an old age. They can’t handle all of the division. There’s a small percentage that are not truly sociopaths, but they are wide open, spiritually. They’re hearing a multitude of voices and guidance, and they feel they can’t separate themselves from it.

    Me: Wow.

    Erik: But it is mostly a lesson in internal learning and grounding and mending. We aren’t, as a culture, as a society, giving them the right tools.

    Me: Hm.

    Erik: In the future, this kind of mental shredding won’t exist.

    Me: Good!

    Erik: It’s not because we kill off the people who stay that way or don’t want them to have babies so it’s not, you know, like it’s genetically growing out. But it does deal with genetics and we will be able to find the missing answers. It’s going to be weird; most of the mental illnesses are going to be cured.

    Me: Why?

    Erik: There’s a lot—

    Jamie (to Erik): B-busting? Say it differently, Erik.

    Erik: There’s a lot of scientific healing coming about dealing with the brain.

    Me: Well, what’s the important spiritual aspect? Is there any spiritual reason that we need to eliminate these mental illnesses?

    Erik: No, there’s no spiritual reason to eliminate anything.

    Me: Well, just because, you know, you don’t want people to suffer from mental illnesses and you don’t want their friends, families and anyone who crosses their path to be negatively effected, too.

    Erik: Yes, but at the moment of death, they’re relieved from it, and they get to see their life and the lesson they gave us and how other people treated them and reacted to them. I mean, it seems horrible as an outsider looking in, but you can’t jump into their life and say it’s not worthy; it’s not valuable. Fuck that! So many people do that. It’s so unfair how these people are saying that—

    Erik: Look what all of these people have been saying about the gay marriages—that it’s only right for a man and a woman. How can someone be so egotistical to believe that their thinking is the right thinking and that they have to push it?

    Jamie (to Erik, laughing): Been reading the paper?

    Me: Yeah. Makes no sense. That’s crazy.

    Erik: When are we going to start thinking as a whole and not as slices of an apple?

    Jamie laughs.

    Me: It shouldn’t be anybody’s business but the people involved.

    Erik: That’s right, but there’s such a fear about the loss of control, you know, and these people feel like they have to rise up and keep everybody together under one rule and one religion and it’s just fucked up! Let us be who we came here to be!

    Me: Hallelujah. Exactly. I couldn’t agree more. 

    What’s the difference between a psychopath and a sociopath?

    Although the Psychological process of denial of Conscience within the MIND of a sociopath and a psychopath is the same dynamic [Esoteric processes], the particular Fate Karma of the individual determines which behavioral expression one engages in, and it is these behavioral expressions that modern mental health focus on and label as either sociopathic or psychopathic.

    Of the more distinguishing traits, some argue the sociopath to be less organized in his or her demeanor, nervous and easily agitated – someone likely living on the fringes of society, without solid or consistent economic support. A sociopath is more likely to spontaneously act out in inappropriate ways without thinking through the consequences.

    Conversely, some argue that the psychopath tends to be extremely organized, secretive and manipulative. The outer personality is often charismatic and charming, hiding the real person beneath. Though psychopaths do not feel for others, they can mimic behaviors that make them appear normal. Upon meeting, one would have more of a tendency to trust a psychopath than a sociopath.
    cause of the organized personality of the psychopath, he or she might have a tendency to be better educated than the average sociopath, who probably lacks the attentive skills to excel in school. While psychopaths can fly under the radar of society, many maintaining families and steady work, a sociopath more often lacks the skills and drive for mimicking normal behavior, making “seemingly healthy” relationships and a stable home less likely. From a criminal standpoint, a sociopath’s crimes are typically disorganized and spontaneous, while the psychopath’s crimes are well planned out. For this reason, psychopaths are harder to catch than sociopaths, as the sociopath is more apt to leave ample evidence in his or her explosions of violence.

     Simple Answer

    A psychopath thinks 2+2=5 rather than 2+2=4. A sociopath knows 2+2=4, but hates to admit it.

    I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I had a great time doing absolutely nothing. Ah! Today, Erik is going to talk about two subjects: the aggressive bipolar person and money. An eclectic duo. Truth is, both pieces aren’t very long, and I didn’t want you to feel short-changed. As I review the entries over those months this last winter and spring, I do see that I could have gotten more in depth, asked Erik for more detail. Sometimes I have to push him a bit. But I got in this rut of just feeling pressured to get through the list of questions quickly. Part of that pressure, of course, has to do with the fact that I pay with all of these channeling sessions. Don’t get me wrong. These sessions are just as much for me as for you. They are a crucial part of my healing process. Plus they’re so much fun. But lately I’ve been taking a deep breathe and, with each question, probing into more nooks and crannies. Sometimes it’s like pulling eye teeth, so to speak. (Sorry, Erik.) But it’s so much more satisfying and doesn’t leave you wanting for more. (Erik uses a different term that I can’t use. Let’s just say the initials are B.B. Sigh.) Anyway, I am trying to get out of that frenetic rut and I hope you notice that soon when we get to that part of the transcription queue. Of course, I slip up from time to time, but… Also, there will be times when Erik simply doesn’t have anything else to say on the topic either because we’re not meant to know the details or, more likely, he doesn’t know them. (Again, sorry Pumpkin.)

    As you can see from the first part of the post, this is the beginning of a channeling session. From April 20th to be exact.

    Me: How are you, Erik?

    Jamie: He’s doing great, and he has his humor pants on today.

    Me: That could mean trouble. Are you going give us a ride for our money?

    Erik: Could be. That’s how my day’s been so far.

    Me: Good! You in a good mood?

    Erik: Yeah.

    Me: Okay, we were talking about Bipolar Disease earlier, but I forgot to ask about those who, when they’re manic, get very aggressive and angry. What about those? They don’t seem, um, unlike the others, how could they be connected to Source during their manic phases?

    Jamie: He’s giving me a visual that I don’t even know how to explain! It looks lie a person who’s stuck in a piece of artwork. It’s very dark on one side and very colorful on the other side, but the person is stuck in the middle. There appears to be a bubble or an outline where the person cannot touch the color and cannot touch the dark, so they cannot interact in either dimension or either side.

    Erik: There’s nothing to ground themselves in except real dense human vibration which is anger force, jealousy. That’s where you really get a huge mind fuck. That’s where you can’t feel. You can’t feel anything, Mom. You’re being robbed of that sensation and, you know, you don’t sit around like a baby lamb and say, oh, look at me. I’m so helpless. Come hold me. Come love me. Cuz you can’t even feel that. You don’t know what to ask for except to get angry at everything, even inanimate objects. You get angry at them, and they haven’t done anything to you.

    Me: Yeah. How terrible for them.

    Jamie: He gives me such a cool visual. I wish I could explain it more.

    Me: Well, I get a good idea. Anything else about that?

    Erik: Nah. Next question?

    Me: Okay, let’s talk about money. Why does money come so easy to some people and so hard to others? Does it come back to the whole thought creates reality thing? Is it a karma or past life thing? What’s it all about, Erik?

    Erik: Well, if it’s a karma thing, you first have to believe in karma and you have to believe in past and future lives and believe in a linear time frame.

    Me: Well, that’s true. Karma is a human construct.

    Erik: Yeah, so let’s just shit on all that.

    Erik: Really, it’s just wrapped into the lesson that they’re trying to grasp. It’s based on the way people perceive money. If—

    Jamie (Erik): So that goes together?

    Erik:based on how you perceive money and what your lesson is on how money will play a role in your life—that same way as with relationships. That same way as how you perceive relationships is how it’s going to show up in your life again. If people love money and embrace it and have a healthy relationship, it tends to show up more often, and it can show up as gifts where it’s given to you or you work for it or as opportunities. Different, different, different ways. But those who say money comes so hard to them, that they can never make it, and they struggle in life for it, they feel like they’re being robbed or taught a lesson in life to be in poverty—trust me, even if they are in poverty, they haven’t felt it yet, because they won’t let themselves see their own reality. They keep the hope glasses and they victimize other people—”It’s other people’s fault that I’m this way. They don’t like me.” It’s just because they won’t look at themselves. It’s so true, Mom! You watch it; you see it in other people. They blame other people for exactly what they’re doing.

    Me: Yes, I do. Exactly.
