Paranoia

[Jeremy Weiland]

hi sheba,

regarding your earlier post, i want to emphasize that
you certainly have a right to your opinion. that
doesn't mean that we have to agree with you, though,
or that we shouldn't speak up if we think your
reasoning is flawed. and obviously if you tend to
hold beliefs that are so foreign to the consensus on
this group that productive discussion becomes
impossible, then it probably isn't serving anybody's
interests for you to keep arguing your point. but
nobody wants to force their opinion on you, and that
should not be a worry of yours. and i certainly will
not judge you :-)

now, as to the content of your post, you mention the
possibility of ulterior motives of ets. i can't say
that the thought has not occurred to me before. is it
likely that they are hostile to us? maybe some, but
it really depends on your paradigm. do you see the
universe as a dangerous and hostile place? or is
there inherent goodness and love in it?

you see, if there is no inherent love and peace and
goodness in the universe, what's the point of saving
our planet from et attack anyway? the only operating
policy that makes sense to me is to approach the world
as inherently good, to see myself as an agent of good,
and to view what is happening to the world as a
function of good. it's the only way that i can
approach the world and make moral sense of it.

i could try to convince you that this et source or
that channelling is valid and trustworthy, but that
would not keep you from being paranoid about evil.
the problem is not the world, it is ourselves, and our
inner relationship with that that we see as "evil."
until we understand that relationship better and
eventually heal it, how can we help but fear
everything outside ourselves?

there are answers out there, but they will only make
sense when we've answered some of the questions
within. and that's the only way to know whether
you're believing the truth or the lie.

take care,

jeremy

p.s. getting excited about this weekend! see y'all there.

this is in response to both sheba and jeremy.

man! sheba...you had me rolling... that was a great post! don't
worry so much about being judged by others. if you practice not
taking things personally and not making assumptions about others,
someone else's opinion of you really doesn't amount to a hill o'
beans. i can understand your point, however, because i too am human
and i too am sensitive. i falter all the time, and as i say these
things to you, i'm also reminding myself. i love you sheba! just as
you are!

jeremy! hi! your posting sent chills all over me. i don't know why
but you know how it is when something really resonates with you...
well, your posting so resonated with me.

resonance. this is my guide to truth. if something really feels
just right on, whether it's something i read or my exposure to
others, i have a genuine trust in its truth until proven otherwise.
these truths grow, develop, mature, even mutate into new and
different things all the time. everyday is a new adventure. my
advice, go with your gut, go with love. anything that is fear-based
or that gives you a negative resonance or just doesn't serve
you...discard it. that is what i try to do. i'm really practicing
finding the love in all things...and you know what...it's always
there somewhere. i'm not perfect, however, as i am human. however,
the more i practice the easier it gets.

blessings
