    i know. for a moment i erased it, then reposted it.

    i didnt know how to express it politely, so i went the rude route.

    to rephrase and put it a bit more coherently and eloquently, over the past few days i've noticed one thing more and more. as an outside observer who admittedly DOES NOT know you personally...

    you seem to go out of your way to fullfill an image, a preconception. you seem to try to be dark and gloomy and anti-human. none of it strikes me as sincere or thought out, simply going against the "hippy" grain. there are enough people here who try to sound like they fart rainbows and sunshine without more people who try to sound like rainclouds and earthquakes radiate from their smiles..............

    i mean this in the nicest way possible and with no hostility towards you (unlike my previous post)

    i dont dislike you. but i feel you are less than sincere and genuine in your recent posts, like you are TRYING to be an image, an idea.

    if you genuinely are so dark and gloomy, and are not trying, there are plenty of other forums in which you would be a better fit. among like company. but while i seriously dislike the hippy "wannabes" and people who try too hard to be goody-goody love-everybody legalize-everything types...this also isnt the place for people who are the exact opposite.

    i mean no disrespect to you, but it does wear a little thin after a while.

    i really hope i don't sound too out of line, but i'm sure i probably do.

    just maybe think about toning it down a bit, thats all.

    Ah, there is always consciousness shifts, life itself in a perpetually shifting movement and redirection of our collective awareness. Someone is always praying for peace, but the external peace is something we can only dream of for now, the internal peace is how we directly cause ripples of change to breach the shores of Love. We can do whatever we are physically capable of, but there will always be suffering, there will always be violence and unjust actions being churned out by humanity as a collective entity. But opening our hearts to acceptance for the way things appear to be, enables us to grow into Love itself, and any amount of peace we bring to ourselves changes the external in some ways, no matter how insignificant it may seem to be.
    I've only prayed a few times during a scheduled event, and never felt anymore energy or connection with our planet than I do when I just get down to meditate on a whim, or as a daily practice of self discipline. Not that I have anything against collective prescribed prayers for peace, they just dont have any noticeable impact on me. But whatever works that has as its root a motivation in Love is cool with me!
    God Bless +
