Love Your Enemies....

>>We have clearing houses for volunteers that do exactly what you just spent hundreds of words talking about. I've called those clearing houses and been referred to projects. They aren't interested in being higher, or tree climbing, or whatever- they simply move willing volunteers around to do productive things.

And they do it without creating a new language, or telling people about light and energy.

But if you are connecting people to do positive things I think that's wonderful. I just wish you could describe it like a normal human. I wish this because I do not WANT to be irritated by you. I think I might like what you do. I can't help it that you way of expressing what you do drives me up a wall. I know, I know, you forgive yourself, and me, and everyone- but what really matters is that THAT really separates us. If you want to knock down the wall between us- you will talk to me the way I and others here try to talk to you. You will revert to the speech patterns I KNOW you must have had at some point- pretend you are back in high school (others here seem to be able to pretend they are back in grade school- all I'm asking for is high school), or college- or whenever it was when you still talked like the man on the street, or Bill Moyers, or Bill Clinton, or Bill Buckley even, WHOEVER- just someone else.

BTW- you never did address my question about risk and vaccinations.>>

If you so much as waver in my direction you will be toasted by the clique on this board.

Just know that I believe in loving my enemies. And I'm not even putting you in this category.

The same energy and frustration that's driving you up the wall is same energy that wants to tear down the walls that separate us.

If you examine it more deeply, when I get angry I'm really angry at myself for feeling separated from something, somewhere, sometime.

We are really angry at ourselves for NOT embracing our own energy in the present moment. And since we don't want to accept the fact that we're responsible for our own feelings we knee-jerk ourselves into a familiar pattern of assigning blame to others outside of ourselves.

And if someone buys our blame game, they will give up some of the same energy AWAY from their present moment of love and feed it right into us while withdrawing some of their trust.

Peace.
