“How to Make New Friends”

by Jesse Freedman

My relationship with my new friends is a story I need to tell.

It started when I was five.

I needed help back then but I didn’t know how to communicate.

I needed “Spelling to Communicate” in order to show everyone how smart I really am.

I needed to wait unitil you (dad) were ready.

I need you to help me find my new friends.

Are my friends ready to be in the same room?

I think that my friends are yearning to communicate with each other.

How to find friends is the challenge.

Destiny is the way to find my friends.

Children need to ask the right questions in order to understand their destiny.

I think that I can help you to decide if my friends are the right ones.

Help me to decide the criteria in order to decide the information that is pertinent.

I can decipher who will qualify to be my friends based on the criteria.

You are the one who can make the right decision.

Jesse spelled the text above with the letter board. I had questions…

Jesse: Do I need to tell you what the perfect friend is?

Dad: No. What do we do when we find the perfect friend?

Jesse: Ask the right questions.

Dad: Like what?

Jesse: Can you spell? Are you funny? Can you decide if I’m happy? Let me know if they are your friends.

Dad: How does it work?

Jesse: Dad will hold the letter board. Merry Christmas to You. You are Santa Claus. I mean you are the one who decides who will be my friend.

Dad: So then what happens?

Jesse: She can tell us what she likes to do. Ask the right questions. Tell me a bit about yourself. I think I would respond with the right questions. Because if she is the perfect friend I can trust her. We’re having a conversation.

I think that all my friends can use this plan in order to make new friends. It can be used in any situation.

As you can see, Jesse needed help with this plan. Before we learned he could spell, this wasn’t possible.

But Jesse also has ideas for how he can help others who are in the same situation as him. Below is a series that resulted from spelling sessions we did together where Jesse pointed to letters and I paused to write down each word. This is Jesse’s writing. I am not a writer, and many of these words are not ones I would use. To make sure I am getting it right, I read it back to Jesse and ask him to confirm. Sometimes he makes edits.

Intro

Hi. I’m Jesse Freedman

I see spiritual guides.

Every non-speaker has the power to fight

for the privilege to understand their destiny.

I can help them.

Entry

(The Spiritual Journey)

I can see the way everyone fears God.

The world is easy to understand.

See the things as they are.

Friends are the ones who can help us see the way to your destiny.

Spiritual beings are there to help.

I think Spiritual Beings are like friends. They are dead and can help us know what to do.

Easy as pie.

As the people read this story they can ask everyone about the meaning of life and tell everyone.

In the world of mechanical beings I know of Spiritual Beings who can help.

Every reader can see the way I think about the meaning of life.

Let everyone rejoice in the song of love and tell everyone to heed the coming of the Lord.
