Thank you so much Jennifer and Jadee for the perception thoughts.
Jennifer, your balance and equanimity is an inspiration for me and
something I need to learn from.
Werner, I am truly sorry for going off on you some weeks ago. I know
how valuable your knowledge of Asbury is. Your love is clear. But
science does tell us that perception has a lot to do with us. Is it
Heisenberg's principle that even suggests that we CHANGE reality with
our perceptions?
I just listened to a talk by Russel Targ, physicist, CIA trainer and
author of a new book called I think "the end of suffering". Thats
where my passion lies. I used to be so negative about everything (ask
my mother). We have to change if we want our world to change. Be
negative if you want, but it really only hurts yourself.
Jack, you take things way too personally. Life is so much more
enjoyable when you don't. Whatever someone says has nothing to do with
us. Only egos get offended. No one can touch who you are at essence.
Thats freedom. And insanity is doing the same thing over and over and
expecting different results. And complaining is useless. I don't have
the time to be as involved as I would like, and I don't have the
tolerance for the BS, phoniness, scheming etc. And I don't live in the
past, or reminisce about it.
I am an optimist and most people would look at my life and wonder how
that is possible. I'm 41 about to enter vocational school. There are
so many good things happening in the world its amazing. Find a talk on
FORA tv by Paul Hawken. So beautiful. And it may sound kooky on this
board, but the only reason we are here is to expand in consciousness
and love. Yes for our enemies, those who would take us down, etc.
Happy Happy inauguration Day!
