Kindly be mindful of the following points regarding the forum. Dialogue is thinking together - it isn’t debate - and it's inquiring together without end point or agenda. People come into the dialogue from their own place of understanding, which is not going to be your place of understanding. We’re here to communicate together, learn together and gain insight into our own thought; to receive and share our observations, not impose our views on others. Address the comments in a polite, considerate manner. By all means, ask for clarification, but challenge the comment, not the commentator. We don’t know enough about the others to make those judgments and we’re here to learn about ourselves, not to correct another's perceived personality flaws. If a comment brings an emotional response, look at that. Do you feel the need to defend? To attack? Time for some looking inward. Self protection results in war. Besides, the war is in each of us. Stop that war, and the rest will take care of itself. (For some suggestions on the nature of dialogue, please click here)

Wonderful lines, did you write them?  Not that it matters who wrote.  All of the lines make sense except for the last two lines which seem just fine, yet remain unfamiliar in it's familiarity as nothing in life feels familiar to me as a humanbeing in the sense that people are so strange, completely unfamiliar... don't know if that make sense?  Not that it should.

the last two lines basically mean that nothing has changed here in the forum...

Don't get all emotional, calm down.  You sound freaked out.  What is it you're so afraid of?  And what is it that has been revealed or confided to me?  Looks like you're off again in your own little world of mumbo jumbo.

Ted Barco, if it's anyone here who knows what a violent fellow you are, it's me.  So don't run away and hide yourself behind an arsenal of images and pic's and empty, fake words and wishes.  Grow up and face up to your fears, your obsession with images.

Samatha Reddy, you only fool yourself and Bob the slob

How am I to understand "bob the slob" without a corresponding picture?

LOL!  Good one, Bob. Stumpy can learn a thing or two from you on how to be a bit more kinder and sensitive to his fellow women beings.

why would you surround yourself with people who aren't growing, learning, opening, evolving?  Like attracts like, always.  There are no exceptions.

Using trees real name, is that being sensitive to your fellow humans?

What's the big deal?  Tree din't get emotional about it, but you are.  Are you his bodyguard or what?  Is he going to be abducted now that I called him by his name?  Don't be silly now.

LOL. Why do you incriminate yourself so? It pains me to no end, what a tragic comedy you have become. Not only are you enlightened...but you are incredibly flexible to stick your foot so far into your mouth.  It might be a good idea for you to stop drinking margaritas during your yoga classes.

you made it our business samata, that is the point, by putting his name out here in an emotional and usery way.  You asked what was confided and I told you, trees real name was confided and you spilled it out here.  To tell yourself you did it out of love or sensitivity is only a charade.  You fool only yourself is all.

sorry sister but how about you go and attend to your son?  Mine is 19 and working on the coding question we talked about on the way home.  It is our business when you bring it here, leave the personal shit out of here and then it is not our business.
