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!”

Here’s another poll, just for fun. (I’m turning into a Monkey Survey junkie.)
