If you think you'll find what you want outside yourself you are mistaken. Oh, there are plenty of temporary bandages available but which do not treat core. Love your pics. 30 May 2006 @ 20:47 by poetsong : Thanks susie and vaxen I'm glad you like the pictures. I took all posted here except the Seer pictures, which were taken by a friend. I'm working on a book of photos, poetry, and art, as well as an Epic Fantasy. I love the people in my life, but I've learned that people can't always be what we need when we need them. It's not an indictment on people, because I can't be there for everyone either. Yet, I honestly felt these feelings. I was going through a rough time, and the people I expected to lean on weren't accessible. It's like going to get a drink of water to find the water service was turned off. 30 May 2006 @ 21:10 by blueboy : One of the reasons "God" made us many instead of just one (huge) person, is so that that one person, when weary, can find support and encouragement from other persons.The mistake we make -maybe too often- is to think that only the the people we already met (and declared asour friends) are the only friends we have!.... I believe every person is my friend; I just haven't met all as of yet!... And then, there's always those, who do not acknowledge you as a friend, coz.... for whatever resaons they have!.... well... that's their loss! : ). Rest assured that you are in such a case not the only friend they fail to see as their friend/brother/sister!... There is a whole boatload of un-acceptables in such people's lives. Skip them and allow Someone else (new) friend to walk into your life! I find (new) friends literally everywhere! If it hadn't been for such happy circumstances as friends popping out of the Woods when my need for one was at the greatest and the ones I alreday had met, were unable to support me, I would not have made it past my 15th Birthday!... Let alone till Today!... ; ) 30 May 2006 @ 21:30 by poetsong : Great post blueboy I think you touch on a great point, that God has made us needy- in a good way. We need other people, and they mean much to us. None of us are completely self-reliant, and aren't so from birth. The happiest people are those with the most satisfying relationships. Nothing hurts more than not fitting in or finding our place in the world (in relationships). 31 May 2006 @ 05:25 by blueboy : I agree a hundred with you! " The happiest people are those with the most satisfying relationships. Nothing hurts more than not fitting in or finding our place in the world (in relationships)." I personally believe that THAT is exactly what we will answer to on our Last Judgement Day: "HOW did you relate to Life; other people, animals, plants and the rest of Nature???" .... In other words: Did you see them as part of you? Could you relate to their pain and suffering? Why is/was YOUR suffering so much more noble and attention-worthy?" ... Did you treat ALL around you the way you wanted to be treated -or was/is there any people/groups/other Life-forms that you saw as lesser (than yourself/your group?" "Did you see ALL Life-forms around you as your sisters/brothers?" Mankind will have some difficulties in answering to these!... Yet this is ALL "God" will ask -and hold us; EACH and everyone of us ACCOUNTABLE for!...If we use The Holy Spirit = Cosmic Energy//our co-creativity to harm, destroy Life (outisde of us) we WILL have to pay with equal amount of our own Life!... Not many people seem to grasp the graveness of this, coz you have to look at it in COsmic perspective: Life STREAMS and not just this Incarnation, but in the grand total of life Everlasting ( with our body in a high enough vibration to be beyond physical death, we COULD have!... ( I'd better stop now -or I get too philosophical!; )hehehhe)-besides the fact that Good Friends are more important and 'valuable' as TRUE Life support than all the money/gold/material phu-phu- stuff in the world! I really like what you say: " The happiest people are those with the most satisfying relationships. Nothing hurts more than not fitting in or finding our place in the world (in relationships)." Love Blessings to you /A-d 31 May 2006 @ 12:06 by poetsong : Stewards of the earth As Stewards (not owners) of the resources in the earth, I believe we are responsible for what we do. I believe we humans are like pieces of a puzzle, but none of us are a whole picture. Our place is necessary to someone else, and this point escapes people (most). The mindset of the masses is to stay as entertained as possible, not to determine, where do I fit in, and what is my contribution. Everyone has gifts. Some gifts are more obvious, but only on a surface level. Beauty, strength, intelligence are praised more. However, some people's gifts aren't as easily observed, but very much missed when not in use. I need people, but must realize they need me as well. If I don't visit a shut-in, perhaps nobody else will. If someone doesn't help me with a variety of things they won't get done. Why? I stink at more things than I'm good at. Someone else can do things I can't, which is why I need them, or society needs them. Beauty fades, strength wanes, intelligence doesn't equal common sense. No one is an island. We all need each other, and should embrace that. 6 Jun 2006 @ 15:04 by Susie @199.173.225.21 : grrrrrr this blog makes me crazy as it never allows me to reply the first try!!!! anyway, you do NOT stink at more things than you are good at. stop judging yourself against others strengths. your strengths may be different than others, bu they are no less important! 7 Jun 2006 @ 18:03 by poetsong : It's important to learn... ...to love ourselves. 22 Jun 2006 @ 19:38 by vaxen : well... it is important to know who you are. there are many traps and snares awaiting the unwary flesh and blood being... loneliness? no such thing. what's the real issue, N? not that you'd want to discuss it here... but I sense that maybe burnout is close. many years of thankless giving can certainly oppress and depress one... that's a trap. energy is infinite. go get some... we are here to help, of course, but virtual is virtual though it would seem that the butterfly effect could be instantiated and your burdens lifted through sharing wherein... the reason people form themselves into groups is for protection. ;) hope you are feeling better today. also it might behoove you never to forget that pathos (feeling) is the power behind manifesting that which you wish to manifest on these planes in this world. change your attitude change your world. ;) seems so simple... ;) here's, then, a thetan hand for you from far across time, from another world, from a fellow sojourner on these shores. life is eternal. oh no! 26 Jun 2006 @ 13:06 by poetsong : "To be a ring-bearer is to be alone..." Thanks for your concern. One falls, another gains the opportunity to be the lifter; in that we are corporate creatures. I lift some, and in turn, lifted by others. Galadriel explained to Frodo that ring-bearers are alone, not for lack of fellowship, but because of the grievous weight they are given to carry. Only ring-bearers know what other ring-bearers feel; and so we have Frodo trying to convince Sam to have pity on Gollum.
