When you said "2 poles," were you referencing the two polarities written about in The Kybalion?

If so, I completely understand how you mean.

Or Ignore, the signs, the movies, the songs, all trying to relay the same message as Linda, I hear her, do you??? She is everywhere, she is Almighty Isis, and she's trying to help...

Love and Light

Okay, cool. So we've read the same book. Aselzion introduced us to it a while back. The thing is, if more people read it - there could possibly be more peace, understanding, compassion (go pixie! ), and acceptance of the pendulum swings everything in life moves with. But, like it says . . . for whatever reason the book tends to find its way to certain readers - and then it makes good sense. Almighty Magician Hermes' way I guess, *sighs* The Masters of Masters.

So, I dunno???

I hear you about stating different opinions. Sometimes people become upset and stop talking with me too. Sometimes they come back and ask questions. Sometimes I get harrassed, and that totally sucks. People being people ain't a surprise. It depends.

Now people being sweethearts, I like that and those are joys. I always believed that even if someone or myself stated something different, and there is a vibration of intelligence and goodwill - no matter how little or greatly inclined someone or myself is towards a subject - it came from a good place, and doesn't feel hurtful listening to it.

But then there is how the listener decides to take it and even if someone tried, the listener can twist it up to fit their visions of what they perceive inside. Then they take that and think that was the talker's intentions. Which is not always the case.

This is the internet ~*virtual reality*~. People don't always come across on here the way they would in person. For all sorts of reasons. Oh, the horror stories.

Just thoughts.

And well, for those who keep ignoring, the basic simple theme...

Back in Feb after a house fire I went into a very deep hole, a friend came into me, and the very thing that helped me pick myself up again, was her compassion and empathy. She said to me "Sue I have just gone thro what you are experiencing now" - I will never forget this, it truly helped me to recover. No I cant relate the words poision and compassion at all, just doesnt make sense to me - have I missed the point again anyone?

Need to be balanced

TOO much compassion is poison, because the person, won't ever wake up

"But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

How are you doing?

Well my first reaction was a very sharp intake of breathe, I should be used to her by now............but one always lives in hope of kindness, I suppose?

Can you imagine she is 53 and still has very limited awareness into things.

So anyway I said to her that some of the most genuine, sensitive and creative people I had met were depressives. When she scoffed at me being suicidal I said to her "how on earth would you understand, you have never walked in my shoes". I then went onto say the reason I had such a good relationship with our dad is cos I understood him and therefore I could reach out to him.

The crazy thing is, she HAS suffered from it, but she is one of these people who is in denial, like it never happened, and you should get over it ...........aaaarrghhh!!

Well I had a message that her karma will come in the form of her kids, she has two boys, and I feel she will "wake up" when one of them goes thro something similar to what we speak off - so what is she gonna say to him "snap out of it".

Of all the qualities in a person, I cannot stand coldness, it makes me feel quite ill!!

She is also one of these people that if you pointed something out to her that she said or did, would turn on the "poor me" thing, and she also lies!! It has taken my ma and da all this time to see thro her and I knew it at age 9 or 10..........truth always comes out in the end.......but hard to live with that!!

I could write a book about her, some kind one here read her chart for me and one of the things that came out was "she would rather break than bend" - she doesnt listen and would never claim to be wrong - her way or the highway!!! It wouldnt surprise you guys that she doesnt have many friends - I feel sorry for her, but feel helpless at times!

Oh well keep praying, keep hoping, keep loving. I said to her that we never got on but I have great love for her and always would...........and despite everything I would be there if she needed me..........it is very sad, but I am learning to let go, albeit slowly

Love to all

Tink,

I am intrigued, who are the dead then? Do you mean people in general, do you consider there are people here who need waking? I have a feeling that the majority of people here are very aware.

I went for a tarot reading last year and the woman looked at me, widened her eyes and said OMG SUE YOU ARE VERY MUCH ALIVE ARENT YOU" LOL.

I think its a very strange thing to presume that people are dead, especially here - we all open up at our own speed - it is a personal thing, we dont need to be pushed. That is like me saying I have found a new healing method and everyone must try it - who am I to do that??? The Taurus friend I spoke of used to do this and everyone around her became almost well........scared to open their mouths!! Force just doesnt work, I of all people know this!!!

Would love to hear your reply

Love to all

I have always felt that we where all sleeping and in a spiritual slumber, and to awaken, one must be aloud to feel both sides of the coin. One most truly feel the madness and believe in it. One will learn to blanket it and have compassion for ones-elf, and understand that during those times of despair one might just be feeling their dark side of the soul thats crying out for help.( The Dark Night of the Soul)

At those times in my life when I have had to face my dark night of the soul, my darker issues and fears, with which I protect, with dear life it s-elf. I usally don't what to deal or feel that part of my soul and it so needs me to do so, or it wouldn't come up this way inside me. It has drive me mad and in to some really deep dark moods of depression and a long time and lots of hard work to come to this place in time, where I say no more poison and just more understanding of this side of mys-elf. Still learning to feed that part of my soul with more gentle compassion and understanding of the human nature and how fragile we can truly be.

Take good care of ones-elf!!!

Love you!!!

Once I was depressed for two years with no med's, just wanted to be left alone to die. I moved from my couch to the bedroom and don't care if the ceiling fall freaken down on me, because then I would of had a way out of all this sh!t. I don't cook, clean, work, want to talk to others or have them around for that matter. Nothing did matter anymore and that was so dark and scary!!!

I feel you and I are best not to communicate at the moment - you sound very angry - I am feeling lighter and in a happier space - I dont need anyone to dictate to me - you do this often and I dont get anything out of it - no offence, just the way I feel!

Oh Yeah and you are dead right, she is my best teacher, but that doesnt mean I have to like her does it???

And you didnt actually come across in a loving light to your own sister either, isnt that a part of family life?

Love to all
