I've a question. What's YOUR take on Lindaland? What role does it play in your life? What does it do for you, and what do you do for it? What do you come here for? I'm curious to hear everyOne's responses.I'll go first: I come here to SOAK UP whatever wisdom other knOwflakes have to offer, and to SHARE whatever bits of wisdom I glean myself from the uni-verse. Teaching and learning, in whatever instance either one is possible. I also sometimes just get a feeling of being less alone, because I live kind of like a hermit (for now). Your turn! And let's not critique one another's opinion, eh? I'd really like to have a controversy-free string here. There's really no wrong answers, anyway, because I'm asking for opinions, points-of-view. Hope I hear from lots of you! IP: Logged |

Nice thread!! Like you, paras, I come here as a sponge - soaking up all the knowledge I can. I have always been a seeker of KNOWledge and spirituality. Never tired in my quest.I find Lindaland to be a place where I can gather with like minded individuals - discuss, learn, laugh, argue, and make new friends. I have also been a huge fan of Linda Goodman for a long time and it is nice to be around so many that love and know her work too. Since I don't have anyone who I can really discuss the things I'm into, in my "real" life, I come to Lindaland, and feel I can converse with people who won't look at me like I'm a complete nut! I find myself here everyday since I found it. Because I, as a human being need to be consantly learning, conversing and sharing. I like the feedback I get here, where as most people I know quickly try to change the subject once anything too "deep" is talked about. I also feel like I am always alone - even when I am with people. Lindaland helps me feel less like a "wierd alien" on this planet. The people who participate here are also "seekers" and I enjoy and respect people like that - people who are curious about life and it's meanings. I feel, in turn, I have also taught others here some things. I know I have made people laugh. And that is what life is about - learning, laughing and Loving. Thank you all! LongLiveLindaLand!

Very well said knowflakes! I am also here to make turtle babies! I had a conversation with a priest that lives in our complex...he has a 6,000 book library that contains almost every book talked about on this site! A big Edgar Cayce fan, belongs to the A.R.E. Too bad I hadn't talked to him sooner, he's leaving the complex. He is the only person I know of outside of L.L. that has a clue.IP: Logged |

What's YOUR take on Lindaland? What role does it play in your life? What does it do for you, and what do you do for it? What do you come here for? Well visit here at least on a daily basis. Most of the time several times a day. It's sort of an oasis in the vast desert of mundane message boards I visit. It gets me thinking about other things I wouldn't normally take the time to ponder. I know a little more about astrology than I used to but there's so much more than that. When I first joined I hadn't read any of Linda's books. Now I have The people keep me coming back. The people and my fascination with them. ------------------
Follow the moon - Follow the sun Let's make a deal this time to stay with the plan All that is needed is one leap of faith Everything else will fall into place Your life is a canvas -The colors are you

I've never felt more at home anywhere else. Even though I haven't posted often, I'm doing more so now. I've read many of my fellow knowflakes threads and posts. Thank You! You are all wonderful teachers. I feel blessed to have found Linda-Land. I'm so pleased to be among like minded souls. When I'm here, I feel centered and not so alone. I live in a rather large family and am in the midst of people all day, and yet sometimes I feel a void deep inside that is filled instantaneously on this site.IP: Logged |

What paras and 26tauras said, and all of the above say. It really gives me a sense of being at home, the only other place that I have been able to find this kind of feeling is when I'm sleeping and in my dream time. When I'm sleeping I have always felt closer to home and who I really Am. Great thread paras and thanks for sharing!!! Just Love You Guys

Ditto.It's a place where I can discuss much of the stuff's that's really important to me without getting looked at askance. I haven't been posting as much lately because of the kiddo, and also because Jase (when his brain's not addled because of Flight School) will often broach the subjects with me. It doesn't usually get as in-depth as LL, but we'll go for walks now and just "spiral" with our discussions - that, and he'll sit in the bathroom, pick up a copy of _The House Book_ that I left in there, and say, "Hey, honey - where's my Mercury again?" "Second House, in Capricorn...so if it mentions it being in an element, yours is in earth." The other bonus to here is that there are a good number of people at LL who I really respect and consider to be my friends. IP: Logged |

I think it's a place of great inspiration and hope. Lindland nurtures my faith because all these people and all these opinions are placed together in one beautiful place. Which proves we can all be individual and together at the same time. Different expressions of a wonderful whole. The rest of the world needs Lindaland. GiaIP: Logged |

In the sometimes heartless world that I live, LindaLand brings me comfort and inspiration and I try to give it back to LindaLand. I come with open mind and heart and feel 'at home' here. I love you all! IP: Logged |
