It is a lovely way to start the day with such a beautiful response<3 You might do some research on herd-mentality and mob-mentality. You are exactly describing your resistance to it. Keep resisting! From our birth, we are 'trained' to fit in. We are put in schools that force conformity. The...

I, perhaps, should have added another aspect to my story. I did not care if I 'made friends'. I wanted to share music, and the joy of it, and have an outlet for my own practice. The others are responsible for their own priorities. They either come or they don't. I put no ties or expectations...

When we moved to this community to be near my Mom (who has health problems), I came with my guitars (and equipment), piano & keyboard, and Native flute, and had no one to 'play' with. I only knew one person (my Mom's neighbor who is one of my best friends). Through her, I met a woman who wanted...

Thank you for the kind words :) There is a clear delineation between Life-Events/Life-Obligations and LIFE itself. Life-events are usually random. Life-obligations are self-imposed AND externally imposed (though that externally imposed may just be our perception rather than actual truth)...

Of course you can be nosy :) It is here we can safely share our ... 'adventures'. I had a hysterectomy when I was 31. I had ten agonizing years of pain, culminating to the point where my bleeding barely stopped. I would often go 3-3-1/2 weeks of bleeding, have a couple days off, then...

These words have such sharp self-clarity and a sense of wild courage. I am rather inspired by the unflinching acknowledgment and honesty of the dark-shadow-side. The story about the rage against the dog made me flinch badly, but it is also one of my greatest fears in myself ... that I might...

I love all animals. They are just as sentient as we claim to be. They think, feel, and express themselves quite clearly if you are observant enough to see/hear/feel the signs they give. I do not know what Lucy's life was like before we got her (she was six when she came into our lives), but she...

Beautiful Karen .... your own words reveal your heart. You are strong. Safe. Healthy. And you are also powerful. The journey of healing is a life-long endeavor and you are taking some very positive steps. There are so many wonderful souls here. You will find many stories and a tremendous...

To all ... I send much love and compassion and much needed energy <3 I am home alone with my dog, who needs 24/7 supervision from a broken foot that is slooowly healing. My husband is with his Mom (out of state). While he is gone, I cannot leave the house, nor can I leave my sweet Lucy long...

I am a bit of a word-freak (understatement!). Rather than saying I deserve to be happy, ...... I prefer the statement "I am worthy of happiness, love, compassion .." The subtle difference between 'deserve' and 'worthy' may be small, but it is there. To deserve something can mean a reward OR a...

Tuesdays with Morrie is a book about a man with ALS. It is an amazing story and I highly recommend it. --- Have you found someone to share your heart with? Are you at peace with yourself? Are you trying to be as human as you can be? Over the years, I had taken labor as my companion, and had...

You are Love. And you are LOVED <3 This post is absolutely brilliant. Specific. Practical. Gentle. Loving. It continues to worry me how people will bully themselves, and that they are encouraged to do so in the TMS format. And how pain is to be ignored rather than acknowledged and soothed...

I finally got some time to listen to this. What Plum said, of course :) You have a lovely talent and the music made me smile. There was a tone and style that invoked some pleasant memory-feelings. Thank you for that! ... with Love and Gratitude ^_^

Thank you for posting this. The wheat that is grown now is junk. It is shorter and faster to grow, and cheaper. The 'heritage' wheat is the 'real' wheat. What we put into our bodies does matter very much! There is such poison in the food-chain, from drugs to dangerous chemicals. Gut flora can...
