Elizabeth, I agree with Simey. Keep posting if only to remind me
of the exciting life you lead, and the boring one I have. I'm jealous.
Love Paula. x

Time for me to be honest

Hi Elizabeth..ditto to More2Life as well. Lord knows in my best intentions to love and be compassionate, I can find a way to piss somebody off..so what the '#&$)+! I am learning slowly not to take people's response to me personally..if I trigger something in them that makes them uncomfortable..well, I know that basic psychology will have them throw it back at me if they can't handle it...so, sometimes I pray for them, sometimes I walk softly and try to find diplomatic ways to say what I need to say..after all, if I want someone to hear me, I can take the time to figure out a way to speak to them in a way that they can hear me..sometimes I have the patience to do that, sometimes I don't. I also know that often times, people reflect back to me (in their responses to me) my own feelings that I've yet to discover..so, if you are angry or pissed off about something...life, whatever, chances are that you will trigger that same emotion from people..it's natural..it's nature..it's what happens when humans try to relate..so I would just offer to you my own understanding of that phenomenon and what I'm learning to do with it...to try to see what they are trying to show me (unconsciously of course..this phenomenon is activated and lived out on the unconscious level..with the only motive being to bring the unconscious to the conscious level..in any way possible...almost always through projection or reflection).

You are certainly a gift here to many as you have read...in giving our gifts in our own unique way, we always recieve them...unfortunately, it's not always comfortable, convenient or easy..or pretty.

Keep giving your gift Elizabeth, I always get something from what you share.
Namaste,
di

I am glad you are here

I, too, really enjoy reading your posts.
As far as I'm concerned it's just like people complaining about what's on the radio or television--if you don't like it turn it off--so if you don't like a post- don't read it!!

So Elizabeth, who the hell are you girl? What articles, journals etc have you been written up in? I am serious. I would love to read about you. You are incredible. You have written a book or what & been published? Yes? Can you say Dear?

You are always welcome here as far as I am concerned. I love your stories when you come on here after going to the club. Honest.
