I really don't care whether I get toasted by anyone else or not. I've never cared much what other people think- perhaps you are like that too, I really can't tell. And I mean that most sincerely. I really can't. Although it annoys me when people misunderstand me- it annoys me as much when people like me for spurious reasons as when they hate me for spurious reasons. That's just a personal idiosyncrasy. I tend to correct people who say false things about me whether they are good or bad false things.

I am glad you don't put me in the enemy box. Because I'm not.

NOW- who is this "we":

"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. "

Speaking for ME- I'm not angry at anyone. Annoyed by the posts of some people, yes, angry, no. I embrace my own energy all the time. I don't think YOU have the power or energy (if you like) to see me embracing my own energy- IF you are including ME in your WE (again, I've no way of knowing what you mean). But I can guarantee you I am embracing a rip roaring fountain of female X energy all day. Also, I do NOT "not want to accept the fact that I am responsible for my own feelings". I do accept the fact that I am responsible for my own feelings and in fact I am on a thread called "Let's talk about our Feelings"- it is not called "Let's talk About why we're Not Responsible for our Feelings". Again, who knows if you meant ME with the WE- but you posted it to ME and when you do that certain assumptions will be made by the reader- for example that you are talking to them, and that we includes you and the reader, at the very least. Now- the knee jerk pattern of blaming others- what is this pattern, who is doing it, and who is being blamed for what?

You STILL haven't answered my point about the vaccinations. I'd really like an answer to that.
