Hi George,

From what I've read, when we first get there and go to the reception center, we get some time and hints on how to adjust. I'm thinking it will be like getting used to a foreign accent, and soon we won't even notice.
I've had the trouble of hearing when dealing with Guidance and others in the Afterlife too. But not so much as I used to, that's why I think we just gradually adjust with practice.
Maybe if they're really happy to see you, they'll all want to talk at once, like at some big family reunion? Maybe they'll just have to mind their manners and slow down.

George,

I don't think you'll have any trouble at all.  Having had a dream a long time ago where only thoughts were exchanged instead of verbal words, every thought was instantanious.  It's hard to explain how effortless it all was.  Imagine two people playing raquetball.  You know how the ball bounces really quickly off the wall after each person takes turns hitting it?  They don't stop playing until someone misses and the rhythm is interupted.

Maybe that's not a wonderful comparison but that's the only way I can explain it.  Your higher self is way too advanced to use words.  Everything is telephathic.  I don't think you'll have anything to worry about.  Who says everyone can't "talk all at once" in the afterlife just as we do down here?   ;) They'll all be so excited to see you.

:D

  I think that was a good comparison Kate, and overall really well said.    You too Bets.

 You all here Rock  :)
