Finally I see nothing but that. Why pray for protection, understanding, love, and companionship. When all that was taken away at childhood. I realized that as I child I never ask for any of those things but now the pressure started me to seek those things that I never had or even asked for. Don't protect me now what use would it be. I wouldn't know if any of those events would actually happen anyway. All th

Ose encounters with people were never sincere. Who ever really cared. Absolutely no one. So all I can do is look forward to a very unsafe journey here on earth and beyond. Do not wrapp your arms around me and let me see how barren my life is. Let me fall from the cliffs without hollering to save me. There is nothing to save. If I was protected and saved then what's next. Constantly saving and protecting me. Only way I will know the truth is to ask for that ONLY!!!! I Hate the rest.

Hi Wes. It is hard to understand that only the truth will save and protect us, nothing else, because we're so un-truth having virtually no relationship with it, and little faith in what it will do because we've never experienced it helping us.

Being feeling-expressive and sympathetic, yet not wanting to know the truth of oneself.
It’s interesting being with Cara the woman who runs the crystal and jewellery shop. According to Marion who is far more aware of other people expressing themselves than I am, Cara is very expressive, and very sympathetic and loving in her support of another’s feelings. She is the opposite of me, being readily able to express all she feels, and yet she is still full of the normal worries and ills of life. She is obviously not growing in truth and even refuses to look more deeply at herself and all she feels, and doesn’t want to use her feelings to uncover the truth of herself.
So using her as an example, I can see how a person can be very feeling-expressive yet not grow in truth, the reason being, simply, because they are not wanting to grow in truth.
To grow in truth we need a strong desire to do so, then we need to look to our feelings to find it. So feelings and just expressing them doesn’t necessarily or automatically mean one grows in truth, which is right for there has always been people who are very feeling-expressive, even whole cultures, yet they have not grown or advanced in truth to any high degree.
So longing for the truth is the most important part of growing in truth - to want to grow in truth above all else. Then to look to ones feelings by expressing them and wanting them to lead you deeper into the truth of yourself, which is the truth of why you are feeling those feelings at that time.
And if you want to grow in truth, which indeed so many people say they do, but are shut-off to your feelings, or even if you are feeling-expressive yet not wanting them to lead you to their truth, then you’ll prevent yourself from growing in the truth you so desire. And will have to contend with pretending you are growing in truth by wrongly believing you are when all you’re actually doing is advancing the ‘knowledge’ of your mind.
So as we understand: longing for Truth first, then Feeling expression, all whilst also longing for love and to be true and pure in ones natural love; and longing to receive God’s Divine Love.

I meet many people like that also. And wonder if it's a product of positive thinking. Thinking makes it so and the worries will disappear. And it seems they never want to be caught up in their feelings. Being shut up in an image we automatically portray when we meet someone smile and talk. I recently spoke to a new neighbor and she talks how successful she is cause she makes the customers feel good. And her Co workers are being the opposite. And yet I'm saying to myself I agree with the Co worker. Yet not wanting to express that to her. This seems the best way to meet and greet people. So the world says. And I really don't want hear the happy go lucky mobo jumbo. Because I'm worrying like hell inside. That crap ain't working for me and wait until the right time get away. These happy neighbors trying to spread the Love.

Hi Wes, I totally get how you are feeling. I also know people like your new neighbour, but very often after some time I do find out that they are not that happy as they want others to see them. Playing a role is hard, for sure sometimes like at work you have to adjust somehow but on the other hand you should always be faithful to yourself and not hide too much. It is legitim to struggle as lot's of people struggle and work and have heights and lows. Some time ago when I did struggle a lot inside I decided on starting with schedules for my days. Now I have my rituals, I get up every morning at 8, drink a coffee, read the news and I recently started to read my horoscope on www.astrosofa.com/horoscopes/daily-horoscope every morning. Most of the time I also listen to some radio. I have about one hour for myself and a very relaxed start into the day. I also love my meal plan a lot  However having these regularities help me a lot. I also learned to say no and I most of the time take the time and the space I need and I try not playing a role! Love, Sarah |
