@Outer The heart connection, personally from you on that subject man, that felt great.

@SBB4746 Sweet. Brings to my mind discovering the Being you are, and self actualization. Loved it. Thanks for posting.

@cetus56 ?

Relativity, the double slit, Schrödinger’s cat / uncertainty principle, and quantum erasure are helpful facets for loosening up dualities like experience / experiencer, finite / infinite, alive / dead, etc. Just a way to go about it.

@zoey101 ??

Here, now, same “place’, just with thinking added. Practices integrate the trips, the emptied cup.

@Truth Addict ❤️??

@zoey101 Tough times can be useful. Let the thoughts about the future go, and presence, awareness arises. Adversity allows insight to ‘who you really are’. “I’m still worried & stressed” - It’s helpful to replace those words with “over thinking”. One of the simplest, most effective practices is to take a little piece of paper, write thinking on one side, and awareness on the other, and just keep it on you desk, or in your pocket. If you feel any stress, use that piece of paper to show you it’s because you’re thinking, flip the paper and let it remind you to return to awareness. Out of your head and into the room. Aware of what is seen, heard, felt, etc. Well being & relief while sitting at your desk today; http://mindbodyandspiritwellbeing.com/diaphragmatic-breathing-benefits/ ❤️ Keep your feel good momentum going! (By letting go of the thoughts, returning to awareness) I know you have many responsibilities, but be outdoors as much as possible today, even if that means a couple minutes here and there away from your desk. And - Look up! Every time you’re outside. Look up! See?

@joej If that’s what you want, more power to ya!

Somebody turn this thread into a movie script.

@Applejuice Take care of yourself. Do the practices. Become finacially and emotionally self reliant. When you are inspired, give to the world. The peace is within you, not in any building. If you want to be a monk, be a monk. The emotional roller coaster you’re on is duality, thinking (overthinking) and identifying with thoughts. Meditation is the way. None of your thoughts about your future are your future. They’re just thought. You can let them all go. You’ll never be ‘there’ or ‘done’.

@zoey101 Awww that blows. Hope they’re quick on the reimbursing.

@zoey101 If I’m understanding...you won’t owe any money...the insurance will pay off your loan. Then go get another car, with a new loan. No?

@zoey101 Well cry then, you’ll probably feel better afterwards. Sounds like you didn’t have collision coverage...? Some collision shops with take small monthly payments. If you have insurance, your agent might know someone at a shop who might help with that. It’s hard to be young sometimes. Keep your head (and spirits) up.

@Dali Llama There is no assertion.

HA! People always say...”If it helps just one person, it’s worth it”. Lol! I was ‘that one person’.

@Faceless ?? The “thinker of peace!” ? ❤️

@Ether What do you mean?

@Ether “Old boy” was the experiencer of nonduality. A concept of an individual. The character in time who convinced the audience it’s the actor. The filter of the present. The unseeable haze. The firmament to clarity. The lynch pin of the gateless gate. The ‘protector’ of actual reality. The invisible shield of fear. The offended, perturbed, and engaged when addressed as - my friend, buddy, and ‘old boy’. The seer of other and therefore, other. The owner of memories and desires. Old boy was a selfless half dead workhorse still running in it’s mind even as it was being put down, and of course, freed.

@Ether Old boy fought a good fight. @Faceless ???

@blazed ha! Ya. Weird. Ever do this? My wife and I do every once and a while. It really does slap the seriousness right out. Really appreciating your perspectives & insights as of late, btw. ??

@Dino D YOU make the jokes today, ok? You’re the lighter, funny guy today. What’s one day? Try it on. ?? Beauty tends to come right outta the woodwork for us silly heads. Let’s agree to laugh at ourselves today, every chance we find. We’ll laugh ourselves right out of our heads. I used to be serious too. You won’t miss him, I promise.

Make sure you have ample hand cream.

@Dino D Pretty tough case of serious here. You got a sprinkler you can run through or somethin? http://theabundantmystic.com/12-ways-to-bust-out-of-spiritual-seriousness/ https://m.wikihow.com/Stop-Taking-Life-Too-Seriously Recognize him?

@7thLetter You have a good view on things man. All part of awakening. They’re all perfect, exactly like they are. There really is no point to anything. Just love em. The ‘harder they are to love’, the deeper love you get to experience. Like you said, acceptance too.
