Just listen
The Problem
I was shocked when I read Matthew’s January 2024 message, with Arnold’s comment that “my people conservatively estimate that reconciliation, cleansing and reconstruction will be completed in less than two generations, 35 to 40 of your years.” (1)
Because Matthew had been discussing whether or not we were in the Fifth Dimension up till then, what I did with Arnold’s comment was to say Ascension to the Fifth Dimension would be in 35-40 years.
Notice that that is not what Arnold said.
The Way My Mind Works
What I thought Matthew and Arnold had said set off a crisis in me.
I imagined myself working away 39 years and ten months from now and ready to keel over. All the time, I’m waiting for Ascension (my misinterpretation of Arnold’s words)!
Or worse! The Reval – which is still going to happen … tomorrow! My mind went nuts with the scenarios.
None of this was reasonable or warranted, but the mind is not reasonable or appropriate. My mind’s only interest is in its own survival.
It just makes things up (pretends) and then “makes believe.” No law that I’m aware of impedes its ability to do so. It’s called “free will.”
What We Can Expect from Normal Folks
But all the particulars are not the point I wish to make here.
I’m focused on the way the mind works in crisis – because I firmly believe that what we’re discussing here is where we’ll be headed with the ten days of broadcasts.
Based on my mini-collapse with Matthew, can you imagine what “normal folks” will feel when … they see the utter depravity of the ones who are pulling the puppet strings on the planet?
People who aren’t up to speed with what’s been happening, who are newly awakened won’t have the context into which to fit the facts they’re being given. The facts will simply pile up like water behind a dam.
If they don’t have room to react, they could have nervous breakdowns or heart attacks. (Ask me about it!) (2) They’ll need to react first before becoming somehow conversant with the subject or developing a point of view on it.
So it doesn’t really matter what has been said or not said. What does matter is (A) I thought I heard something I didn’t want to hear (upset) and (B) in my distress (trauma), I got what Arnold said wrong (misperception —> misunderstanding).
We can expect this to be happening right and left, later on. People will (A) hear many, many things they don’t want to hear – for ten days – and (B) get much of what was said wrong or out of context for any number of stress-related reasons. (3)
And all the time they’ll feel like keeling over.
What We Need to Do
This time around there can be no minimizing what we face. We all need to know what’s so on Planet Earth. None of what’s happening of an evil nature can be allowed to continue – as happened with Nazism after WW2. Look at where that has led?
If you’d like me to tell you what I feel is the best approach to those people we know or meet who, like me with Matthew, feel like keeling over, I can summarize it in one word: Listen. (4)
Don’t just turn your face in the other person’s direction and say “Aha” periodically. Really listen.
Remember: It’s not as important that you may have the answer as it is that, by sharing everything with you (the listener,) the speaker arrives at their own answer: That’s the purpose of listening.
One of the ways they arrive at the answer is to lay all the puzzle pieces out on the table. Very few people allow us that amount of listening. Once we see all that we’re dealing with, the answer often arises in an “Aha!”
While you listen, love them. It’ll be visible in your face and will be seen as encouragement.
Pretty humble work, huh? Compared to what’s happening on the planet? I think so. Pretty humble.

A recent (what I believe was a) minor heart attack that occurred in my sleep was, in my opinion, stress-related. People watching the ten days of broadcasts will be under incredibly-more stress.
(3) When stress or tension goes up, awareness decreases. Moreover, awareness that awareness has decreased also decreases.
