Just when you think no one is paying attention to you, there are eyes on the other side watching. I feel bad for P that he can;t really get away from his fame, people over there recognize him, and it seems that there are no solid walls to really hide behind. I find it really bizarre that people would still care about celebrity on the other side, but the fact is that these spirits were all once human, and their way of thinking doesn&#8217;t change much after death. They can even still remain materialistic in attitude. I have even heard comments from spirits making remarks that I am &#8220;poor&#8221;!
