Lukas and Annika left yesterday back to Texas A & M University, but not without first getting irritated by my insistence that they clean their bedrooms and their kitchen mess. A mother has to keep her nagging skills well honed just in case of emergencies like dishwashers in need to unloading and bowls of cereal in bedrooms. Given the fact that I had five kids, I’m proud to say I’m quite the expert at eliciting eye rolls and groans. 

Shortly after they left, Rune returned from the track having won the Heavy Weight Twins category! Not bad for an old man. The only hiccup he encounters was when his trailer with his motorcycles and equipment unlatched from the hitch while he was driving down the highway! Apparently, a nut worked itself off because of the up and down motion while driving. For a while, the trailer skidded at 45 degrees on two tires. He had to call a service to get it fixed and reattached, but it’s all good now. He loved using all the emergency equipment he’s never had a chance to use: pretty flashing LED beacons, shiny reflective triangles and more. Good thing Paul wasn’t driving. He would have probably been dragging that trailer at 125 mph. Sorry, Paul, but you know it’s true. 

Me: Can you share another life that most influenced your one as Paul Walker?

Paul: Well, it’s no secret how much I loved cars.

Me: Yeah.

Paul: Fast cars. It was pretty recent, this life.

Robert: When was it? (Pause) Like just tell me the year because if you show me stuff, I won’t know.

Paul: 1954. I used to race stock cars. I died in the same way there. It was an accident, but I didn’t go right away. I was severely burned.

Robert: Well, that’s the same thing that happened in this life.

Paul: I didn’t die right away. I had to deal with the burn issue for a while before I passed, and I died of an infection. That was a big life that shaped this one because I carried it all over since I loved the excitement of it all, the risk of it all.

Me: But you didn’t learn from that one, huh? You still put your life in danger.

Robert chuckles.

Paul: I learned things. I just learned different things from having the same thing happen. In that life, I was in control of the car. It’s well known; it’s all over the media that I wasn’t driving.

Me: Okay.

Paul: And I wasn’t in control of that, just like this life, I didn’t have any control over when I left. It was in somebody else’s hands.

Me: Was your death painful?

Paul: For my life as Paul Walker? No.

Me: How do you feel about the guy who was driving?

Paul: Well, that’s my bud. If I had to go, I’m glad I went with someone that I liked.

Me: So you don’t harbor any resentment?

Paul: No.

Me: Oh, that’s good. Now, tell us about what happened when you transitioned. What did you see when you got out of your body?

Paul: I actually saw the accident. I saw that the car was in a big ball of flames, and I just watched it like I would be watching one of my movies. I had no [emotional] attachment to it. The attachment thing is really an interesting part of it, you know? You see it, and you realize it’s happening, but understand that it’s not real. The life you live in the physical world is just a projection of what you came here to learn. Whatever the lessons are that you’re meant to learn, you’ll project that and create that life so that it’s molded in a way for you to get those lessons. Once those lessons are over, you see that it’s just a show, a movie.

Me: Okay, so you saw the accident, and then when you crossed over, what was that like?

Paul: I took my time crossing over. I had to go visit family members, my kid, just let them know, in my own way, that I’m still around. So I hung around for a while.

Robert: How long, in linear time?

Paul: A couple of weeks. I took my time. The funny thing about it is that I spent my life into the fast things, fast cars, that kind of thing—in certain aspects. It’s not like I was a risk taker at everything. It was just with that part of my life. But when it came to crossing over, I took my time. I did the same when it came to the people I love or certain things.

Me: You could be a slowpoke when you wanted to be?

Paul: Yes.

Robert: He showed me a visual of himself on a farm.

Paul: That kind of manual work where you’re taking care of a farm, growing hay, working on a tractor or putzing around in a barn, all that is a different kind of excitement. It’s at a slower pace and it helps you to focus on what’s in the moment. The faster things like faster cars—really, you’re doing the same thing. It’s just at a higher level of excitement. But I’m kind of getting off of what you asked. So when I finally decided to cross over, the first thing I saw was a dog that I had as a kid.

Me: Aw.

Paul: One of my best friends. Friendship, to me, is important so it wasn’t surprising for me to see one of my first friends. We walked together.

Robert: He shows himself walking with his dog by his side, and there’s this group of people who grab him and hug him.

Paul: There were all kinds of people that I knew in this life, some that I knew in other lives, and ones that I knew in Heaven before I was born. It was a homecoming.

Me: Aw.

Paul: It really helped. It helped me as a first step in integrating into that kind of existence and to be able to let go of everything I know as Paul Walker.

Robert: It kind of makes me feel a little poignant.

Me: Yeah, you’re sensing his emotions, probably.

Robert: Yeah. Yeah, I am.

Me: I’m sure! Tell us about your afterlife and the work you do there.

Paul: Lately, I’ve just been spending a lot of time chilling. Just relaxing.

Robert: He showed me a visual of him sitting on a porch drinking beer. He never came across to me as a guy that would drink beer, but…

Me: Okay. So you’re just taking a breather?

Paul: Yeah. I do the exciting, fast things when I’m on the earth, and when I’m here, I take a break.

Me: Good! I’m going to take a break, too, when I get over there. Are you planning on doing any life’s work over there?

Paul: For now, this is my life’s work. Everything that you do, I’ve learned and I’ve known instinctively on the earth, is work. Even the stuff that everyone thinks of as play. You’re always learning something. It’s impossible not to learn.

Me: Yeah, interesting. What do you think about the state of humanity now from a spirit’s perspective?

Paul: If I were still on Earth, I would have a different angle, but from here, just like I said earlier when I talked about the accident, there’s a sense of detachment. It’s not in the sense that you’re aloof or indifferent to it. You just understand what it really is and what it’s working towards. So I don’t really think anything negative or positive. I’m pretty okay with how everything is.

Me: Are you just looking at it as, “Everything you all are going through is just a lesson?”

Paul: Yeah, it’s not an indifference. They’re lessons pushing you toward becoming more evolved in this plane of existence. But I will offer a little piece of advice.

Me: There we go! That was my next question!

Paul: My advice would be to realize that your reactions to things—your son has said this, too—your reaction to your experiences isn’t going to inhibit your evolution. It’s not going to push you in a direction that you’re not supposed to go in, but it can make you more uncomfortable, so just relax with it all. Take it in stride as best you can.

Me: Okay. Any other messages or advice?

Paul: Nah.

Me: Do you have any messages for your fans?

Paul: I appreciate my fans. You don’t even realize how much I appreciated them in life.

Me: Aw, that’s so nice.

Paul: Without them, I would never have become what I became. I’m really thankful, I’m humbled, that people are still so attached to the work that I’ve done and to me.

Me: Yeah.

Erik: Well, it doesn’t hurt that there are a lot of people out there that think you’re really hot!

Robert laughs.

Me: That’s true! I’m going to get to you, too, Erik, because I want you to ask him some questions, so be thinking. One blog member asked, “Were you murdered, killed by a drone or were you about to disclose a secret?”

Paul (laughing): No, none of the above. Not everything is a conspiracy. In fact, conspiracy, itself, is a conspiracy, right?

Hm. That might take some pondering.

Paul: It’s there for people to think of in their head and perpetuate whatever it is they want to believe. But hey, I don’t knock it because you’re using your imagination!

Me: That’s true! Some people really do. Here’s another question from a blog member: “What do you think about all this adoration and the mourning that took place after your death?”

Paul: As a spirit, when you feel that and you take all that love in, it’s overwhelming. That’s the one thing that’s the most profound part of transitioning. You feel everything in its purest form. So when you first transition and you start to feel all that and you still have a certain amount of influence from your physical life, until you get acclimated to its intensity, it can be overwhelming. When I reconnect to that life as Paul Walker, I can pull up that intensity and I love it. It’s like lying down on a beach with the sun shining down on you. You know how great that feels? It’s really good, and I love it. I really appreciate everybody for sending that to me.

Me: Yeah, that’s nice. Erik, do you have any questions?

(Long pause)

Erik: You know, I like Paul.

Robert: I wish you would—

Erik: He’s got good taste in women.

Robert: Okay, just ask him a question.

Robert chuckles.

Robert: Go ahead.

Erik: What’s your favorite car?

Paul: Anything red and fast.

Me: All right.

Paul: Like the cars in Fast and Furious, man.

Erik: Yeah, but what brand?

Paul: I like a Mustang.

Robert: He shows on the hood this thing—kind of reminds me of what you see in the movies—on the hood where the engine is, there’s something that sticks out.

Me: Oh, like a scoop or something? An air scoop?

Robert: No. It’s some kind of exhaust thing that comes up and—

Me: Oh, maybe that’s a turbo.

Robert: Yeah, like that, so I don’t know what the word is, but he showed one of those. It was red.

Me: All right. Robert, do you have any questions for him?

Robert: I don’t really have any questions. What would I ask?

Paul: Well, what do you want to know, man?

Robert: Oh, goodness. I don’t have anything.

Me: Okay, that’s fine. Well, you can ask him any time you want!

Robert: Yeah, that’s why, because he and I had talked prior, so…

Me: Did you talk about anything interesting?

Robert: I just mostly asked him—because you had mentioned before that we were going to talk to him in one of the sessions—I just asked him to give me information that would be helpful to the blog members and would validate that it was him..

Me: Okay.

Robert: That’s really what I keep it at, and I don’t really get too much into the chitchat. I’m not a really big chit-chatter, you know?

Robert laughs.

Me: I know! All right, thank you, Paul. I really appreciate it.

Paul: Thank you for the invitation, ma’am.

Robert: He’s so polite!

Me: I bet he is, like “Yes, ma’am” and all that.

Robert: Yes. “Yes, ma’am,” “No, ma’am,” “Thank you, sir.” He’s like that.

Me: Well I hope you guys enjoyed this [interview]!
