@SLuxy A truly remarkable guy, yeah.

I don't know nearly enough about the subject to be able to offer an informed comment, sorry!

Yes, this is the key thing to understand - this is what's at the root of addiction. And there's no judgment in this, because understand this: We are all addicted to something, it's how we humans cope with life. The question is, at what point are you no longer content to simply cope with life? At what point are you willing to stop and face that from which you've spent your whole life running? (Like the avatar by the way, SLuxy - I was thinking about rewatching 'Schindler's List' the other day, amazing film.)

@nistake

Great idea, love this!

@Hulia I think with enmeshment the other person is still regarded as separate and distinct from you, whereas with love it's recognised that you're one and the same, that your heart is their heart. I think! Gianna can probably explain it better than I can

Have you looked into emotional support groups?

@Charlotte You're so welcome, and thanks, really, for sharing your story, I was so touched by it <3

Wonderful, that's great to hear

Interesting... I love that

Oh, and I've just got to share this one, I just love the way Katie Cole sings it

@Preety_India

@Preety_India I did consider doing that, yeah, though I don't really feel the need to do so just at the moment - I may do in future, really appreciate the suggestion

Not at all, mate, I find it really interesting too! And if it's useful for other people, that makes sharing it worthwhile Isn't it! Kinda makes me wonder what emotional pain is, exactly, is it just physical pain with a story attached? Exactly, yes, couldn't agree more!! I think very often we just treat the symptoms, without really getting to the root of the issue. Exactly, well said

Been feeling quite a lot of pain and upset in my heart last night and this morning, the awakened energy's really pressing against those blockages in my heart which is making for a pretty uncomfortable, rather painful experience at the moment. I noticed some upset in my sacral chakra this morning too, which is interesting - that was a particular problem area for me a few years back when I was really struggling, I'd often feel a very painful contraction in that area, like a clenched fist in my gut, and a lot of upset ( I noticed there seemed to be a strong connection between the issues in my sacral and heart chakras around that time). It's generally felt much clearer since then though, so it's interesting that I've experienced a flare-up - not exactly sure what triggered that, though it passed pretty quickly (I think meditating this morning probably helped to alleviate it).

One more for good measure:

I really shouldn't have limited myself to just one song a day, I want to share so much music at the moment I seem to be in the mood for moody music today, I love this one:
