@electroBeam It's the "if you do show someone" part that I'm at. For all my openness and looking, no one has showed anyone anything. @Leo Gura With all the respect in the world for what you do, this is an exact example of what I'm saying - this is always where paranormal ends. So far in my experience it always boils down to nothing but others' conflation. It always turns out they experienced a drug trip (I'm a fan myself) or a story they were told (usually at a young age) and adopted the details as their own. It would just be nice if for once someone experienced a ghost, or alien, or whatever, and said "here it is", rather than ultimately, "it all took place in my head" or "if you were me, you wouldn't talk openly about it" or the switch to "if you were open to it you would experience it too", which may be felt as genuine, but is also a simple defensive misdirection of topic. I've been open to aliens, angels, for many years, roughly 20. But still nothing. I am expressing from my experience. It reminds me of how religious people get offended when someone continues to ask about their religion. Apparently, it's not fun for people to discover that something they say they know, turns out to be a belief. Poeple seem to take words about a topic as words about their character. If you ask someone about a vacation they took, they'll tell you about it all day. They'll make popcorn for the slideshow. Ask about something that they claim happened, but never actually did happened, and they get frustrated pretty quickly.

@LRyan Look around. You are not nothing. There is no such thing. You are everything. The path is not direction, like a path you would walk on. The path is how you live. How you observe. Right thinking, etc. This can go in any direction. It is not predetermined. You are choosing. @Loreena That's two great jokes in one. Very funny. And.......so........how's that simple thing coming...? ?✏️?

You wanted to escape the matrix right? Sounds like you are but you feel the natural need to take everyone with you. We are each our own reality. Very few people want to escape that matrix. Keep in mind, if they were suffering enough, they would pursue it. Be at ease.

@love Practice love with thoughts and emotions of love in meditation. If you go down the path of thinking love is to or from your partner, you will have much to undo later on in your life when you want to experience unconditional love. If you want to feel love, feel love. Those who hold connotations of love being given become depressed when they are without someone to love. Those who hold connotations of love being something received from another person become depressed when there is no other person loving them. What is really happening, is you are interpreting what you're observing and allowing love from within yourself. Enjoy the illusion of love coming and going between you and other people, but first know that it is an illusion / misnomer. This will save you from suffering in the long run.

No offense, but how are you ever going to let go of your racism if you need your friend to and your parents to condone volunteering? You would have to think for yourself to gain any enlightenment. Not being racist is pretty low hanging enlightenment fruit. I hope this helps. I do realize it's an abrasive attempt.

@Shin When you empty your "cup" it fills up with the oneness. It's so beautiful, it brings tears. Don't try to hold back the tears, but do try to breath through it, and you'll increase your capacity for it. Allow it. You'll just get more and more filled up with it over time and it's the greatest thing.

@LRyan i hope it helped. one more suggestion. tomorrow and the next day read what u just wrote here. u might see that u are still talking about it. still sharing and reliving those memories which give u troubles. and also u have clarity on the big picture. so u r half way to where u want to be! which is awesome! imo aim to truly let it go. which means literally forgetting and never mentioning and reliving. i feel you are doing great and things will only get better and better

Are you indirectly stating that you put the needs of others before yourself?

@MissMiki Don't be terrified. This too shall pass. You have momentarily forgotten your strength. It will return. Hang in there. You are a strong empowered individual! Try to remember! You are missing the perfection and sweetness of life. Yesterday I watched the screen door close and I was enthrawled with it's beauty and majesty! It just spoke to me on a mystical spiritual level that no one else has access to! It was so beautiful that I fell to me knees and just repeatedly thanked God for that screen door!!!!!! Remember your power Miki!!!!

I am at the helm

The number one obstacle for not making change is literally simple. It is not taking out a sheet of paper and writing down what you want. Everything that would be credited to preventing you from making change is a false belief. This is realized when we shift our focus to what we want. Writhing it on paper and taping that paper to the wall is a commitment that prevents us from slipping back into some bullshit excuses and justifications.

Anything can be changed. The mind is not in the brain. The brain is empty space.

The whole topic of paranormal activity goes like this: Someone says paranormal things like ghosts are real. Any personal experience? No. Any proof like photos, video? No. Why do you believe it then? Because I'm open minded. Well if you're open minded then why haven't you experienced ghosts yourself? Uh. Then they stop talking about it and give some bullshitty reason like they are suddenly worried about what people will think. Or the classic - you are in a paradigm where you are blocking paranormal out. Uh, ok... my paradigm is somehow preventing you from showing photos or videos to me? My paradigm is somehow preventing you from continuing to tell me the details of your alleged experience? Sure.

Just my opinion - everyone with intense stress is stuck at a specific point where they use a defensive reason not to talk about "it". Some people say "You don't know what I've been through!" Or "I just don't want to talk about it right now". So it builds up over time in your head and becomes this mountain. But once you do finally talk about it, afterwards, it starts to occur to you that the problem was actually that you were holding on to it, protecting it. I suggest you talk about it here. It might be upsetting, but tomorrow and the next day, go back and read it. You will get a third person view in a sense when a day or two passes and you read what you wrote. This will begin a sense of distance from it, as well as more clarity from an 'outside' view.

@Loreena lol. Ya. It was either deleted which I doubt, or a glitch, or of course, paranormal. I'm a believer now.

fake it till you make it practice makes perfect just do it they're all the same thing trying to bust through to you. Maybe there's a shortage of reception.

Your previous level of desire will return. Maybe a week to three. Keep enjoying the change. Consider it a vacation from your norm. When the desire to do things returns, hang on to the intuition. Great post to read. Thank you

@jse right on. you're a desk, and I'm an apple.

@MissMiki why were you being apologetic?

@Epiphany_Inspired I meant it is hard for each person to realize they are making their choices that are bringing their circumstance. You, on the other hand, are clearly aware of this. When you look around, you say - why is the fucking world would anyone go through so much suffering vs doing even a tony bit for themselves. IF there was one brownie left in the world, and you were the lucky recipient of that brownie, would you eat it and enjoy it, or would you suffer thinking about why no one else get's the brownie? You asked for enlightenment, and now you have some. You must let of the need for your higher level of common sense to apply to others. There is nothing in between each of us but empty space. It is each of us who are the reality. You changed your reality. Now change your reality again to the one where you find others suffering perfectly fine as it is. Or help. But be at peace, and remember what got you here, was choosing, not destiny.

So many people not doing the mirror thing and commenting on it. This is how religions are founded people. This is how Hitler did what he did. Please at least be aware that you're giving advice to someone who is trying things that you are not even trying. @electroBeam

@Ry4n There is always pain. Suffering though, is self imposed. The pain is lessened when the suffering is understood.

Let go of victim mindset, what remains is love & ease. Take ownership of creating our life and drop the expectation that anyone else should do anything for us. All that remains is unconditional love.

@LRyan More variety is always better. Your resolution is in awareness of what you're choosing, not what is avaible to choose from.

Stare into your own eyes in a mirror for just ten minutes. You'll have seperated to the extent you call uncle.
