listening to: Center of the Sun from Poe

So I just came back from Dallas. I have mixed feelings about the visit, but not in the way you might think.

I guess I should start in the beginning. We go to Dallas, the talk was going to be at the Renaissance Hotel, so we decided to go ahead and stay there the night before, get up early and find good seats.

We get there and we couldn't record the lecture, otherwise I would have done it for my sister who couldn't attend. But anyway, yes he is much smaller in person and much thinner. He has a very sharp, dry wit to him, but he is nice. I could tell that even though he is nice and all, you wouldn't want to see him mad. ;)

He spoke about himself a little bit, how even as a kid he saw spirits. He compared himself to the kid in the 6th sense, only he didn't experience anything negative No people with their heads chopped off or anything, just regular people (in his mind's eye) with a light glowing around them. Then he did some meditation exercises and began doing readings.

Now according to him what happends is the spirits come to him, and from that he goes into the crowd. So I couldn't ask him about my Grandma, but even if I had wanted to he said not to ask him personal questions like that. He spoke to alot of different couples about mothers, fathers etc...
My dad, always the sceptic, told my mom and I that even though everything looked "authentic" there was always a chance that he had staged the readings with people and peppered them around the audience. Then he said, "The only way I'll be 100% sure of this being true is he gives us or your friend Veronica a reading."

Sure enough, the last reading he did, he said this spirit just made his presence known, was a soldier looking for his family. My friend Veronica's mother raised her hand shakily. He said alot of things to them, some I think too personal to write about here. But the good thing is, that they had no idea how he died, the goverment hasn't told them. James told them how, where, with whom. He then also said things that they did while he was alive, as well as places in their house (specific memories, places, faces and names). Veronica's grandfather also came through.

I'll upload the pictures my mom and I took with James later.
