The Guardian for this meeting was Adams Rubble. The comments are by Adams Rubble.

I sat alone for a few minutes until Qt arrived,followed by Adelene and SophiaSharon

Qt Core: hi
Adams Rubble: Hi Qt :)
Adams Rubble: Sorry I had stepped away :)
Adams Rubble: How are you?
Qt Core: fine, you ?
Adams Rubble: I am very good, thanks
Adams Rubble: It is a bright sunny day here
Adams Rubble: Hello Ade :)
Adams Rubble: Hello DSophia :)
Adelene Dawner: hi all :)
Adams Rubble: Sophia
Qt Core: a little cloudy here (but it was expected, there are a lot of traditional sayings that tells that if the olive sunday is sunny easter will be rainy/cloudy)
Qt Core: hi adele, Sophia
Adams Rubble: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: It is sunny here :)
Adelene Dawner doesn't know what it's like out, here... guess I could check weather.com if I wanted to know. *chuckle*
Adams Rubble: Well, we had quite a couple of sessions yesterday :)
Adams Rubble: hehe Ade
Adams Rubble: It is like that for me when I am at work
Qt Core: how many thousand further away than the nearest window is that server ? ;-)
Adelene Dawner: hehehe
Qt Core: miles
Adams Rubble: At work there are no windows :)
Qt Core: i have some but not in fromt of me (and i like it that way)
Adelene Dawner: I have a window, but I keep a blackout curtain over it... easier to just ping the server :)
Adams Rubble: Has anyone been doing the Being Seeing exercise?
Qt Core: i may not be a vampire but i don't like very much direct sunlight
SophiaSharon Larnia: I haven't heard that tradtional saying before Qt...
Adams Rubble: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: no what is that Adams?? the wiki is down right now btw
SophiaSharon Larnia: oh!! nvm
Adams Rubble: nvm?
SophiaSharon Larnia: im slow (hung over from preparations for dinner today)
Adelene Dawner: nvm=nevermind :)
Adams Rubble: :)
Adams Rubble: hehe
Qt Core: whell, literally it say "water on olives sun on the buttock" (the buttoks refer to the peeled boiled eggs
SophiaSharon Larnia: i got you, too quick to type
Qt Core: traditionally eaten on easter
SophiaSharon Larnia: oh really Qt? interesting :p
Qt Core: sometimes it is inverted but the main ideas is always the same olive sunday and easter will have opposite weather
Adams Rubble: We have more March winds today :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: to answer your question Adams, I am didn't think of it I'm so new, the 'seeing being' part is what I've concentrated on, but isn't that what we all have done, in a way..... so it is exciting stuff to me to think of it the other way around!

Neela joined us

Adams Rubble: Hello Neela :)
Adams Rubble: Nice to see you :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: typos and bad grammer sorries
Neela Blaisdale: Hello everyone
Adams Rubble: Great Sophia. Could you say more about the other way around?
SophiaSharon Larnia: only that it will have to be a delinated, purposeful exercise, i think i need the stucture
Adams Rubble: whoops. missed the stop
SophiaSharon Larnia: i didn't hear the ding either time
Adams Rubble: yes, we do need that often
Adams Rubble: Something interesting happened to me yesterday
SophiaSharon Larnia: oh?

Then Pema rezzed in

Neela Blaisdale: Hi Pema:)
Adams Rubble: When Pema first suggested the exercise I did not see it as helping me
Qt Core: hi Pema
Adams Rubble: Hello Pema..We were just talking about you :)
Pema Pera: Hi Neela, Sophia, Adelene, Adams, Qt!
Adelene Dawner: Hi Pema :)
Pema Pera getting curiouser
SophiaSharon Larnia: Hi Pema, hi Neela if I didn't say :)
Adams Rubble: Then Pila suggested the Ancestor Seeing
Adams Rubble: I immediately thought "Just what I need" since I was having issues with stuff an ancestor had passed on
Adams Rubble: But an interesting thing happened
Adams Rubble: as the day went on, looking at myself through eyes of ancestors
Adams Rubble: they began to tell this voice in me to hush
Adams Rubble: they did it for me
SophiaSharon Larnia: :)
Adelene Dawner: neat :D
SophiaSharon Larnia: that is so amazing Adams
Pema Pera: that's so great, Adams!
Adams Rubble: When we try things we never know what to expect :)
Pema Pera: exactly!!!
Qt Core: end even when we are trying nothing reality has this bad habits to hit us ;-)
Pema Pera: we all together have to learn to trust the process/spirit/momentum of Play as Being, what IT wants to tell us, through us
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes that reminds me of what I thought of last night, it is a matter of trusting
SophiaSharon Larnia: sometimes that is extremely difficult to do
Adams Rubble: I had a similar thouught Sophia only of trusting love
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes
SophiaSharon Larnia: my walls feel like cement and any breach in it feels like a meltdown...I spin... trust in being is the only thing left to do
SophiaSharon Larnia: well, maybe you know what i mean
Adams Rubble: it seems formidible at times
Adams Rubble: but they break down bit by bit
Adams Rubble: doesn;t all have to happen at once
Adams Rubble: lots of time
Pema Pera: trust doesn't mean blind faith -- it means a willingness to try something new, even though we don't know how it works and what can happen -- we try, with friends we also trust, in a trustworthy environment.
Adelene Dawner: I found an interesting... quote? saying? String of words, anyway... yesterday, that seems interesting here... "The best decision I ever made was letting you love me."
Pema Pera: :-)
Adams Rubble: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: :)
Adams Rubble: friends here have been so important in helping me see more
SophiaSharon Larnia: trust to me is surrender, in the sense i feel it, having little to do with blind faith
Adams Rubble: sometimes I feel almost "touched"
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes :) me too
Adams Rubble: a healing touch
SophiaSharon Larnia: or poked, hard sometimes
Adams Rubble: hehe
Adams Rubble: yes that too
Adelene Dawner: ^.^
SophiaSharon Larnia: yup
Qt Core: (thinking about the big manga stykle 5tons hammers)
SophiaSharon Larnia: hehehe
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes some things have been like a big gong over my head...that i felt all throught to my cells
Qt Core: juat likw this ancestor things
Qt Core: while you were talking about it i realized i never have a feeling of it from my house... and it is a very old one and it was always owned by my family (used or not)

A new avatar came but did not give permission to use his name

Adams Rubble: Hello New Avatar
Qt Core: hi New Avatar
Adams Rubble: I had done a bit of geneological work so it is at my fingertips so to speak
SophiaSharon Larnia: Hi New Avatar
Neela Blaisdale: Hello New Avatar
Adams Rubble: come oin us if you like New Avatar
New Avatar: thanks
Adams Rubble: Hello Scath :)
Qt Core: hi Scath
Pema Pera: Hi New Avatarand Scath!
Adams Rubble: Have you been here before Anachie?
Neela Blaisdale: Hi Scath
SophiaSharon Larnia: Hi Scath
New Avatar: smiles, No and I'm not entirely sure where I am
Adams Rubble: I will give you a notecard :)
Scathach Rhiadra: Hello all:)
New Avatar: thanks Adama
Adams Rubble: We record our conversations. Do you have any objections to that?
Pema Pera: Sophia talked about her cement walls . . . there are two ways of working with cement walls -- chipping away at them, or gently allowing Being see through them, and it feels totally different.
SophiaSharon Larnia: oh?
Pema Pera: we can let Being see from the inside, so to speak
Neela Blaisdale: Chipping can feel like butting one's head into a wall...
Pema Pera: yes
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes it does
Neela Blaisdale: but I think is usually the first instinct, altjough nt sure why...
Pema Pera: it is so hard to imagine that we can let ourselves be seen . . . .
Adams Rubble wants to say we are tyoauht to use our heads
Adams Rubble: taught

..and then our title for today

Pema Pera: by Being, by ancestors, by God, and by golly by ourselves!
Adams Rubble: :)
Adelene Dawner: ^.^

Fefonz was next

Neela Blaisdale: Hi Fonz
Fefonz Quan: hi all :)

Scathach Rhiadra: Hello Fefonz
Pema Pera: Hi Fefonz!
Adams Rubble: Hello Steve :)
Pema Pera: and hi Steve!
Scathach Rhiadra: Hello Steve
SophiaSharon Larnia: HI Steve
Qt Core: (thinking about those walls more like the firewall we use on our pc... they let something in only if it was "invited" from the inside)
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes that is it
Qt Core: but that means that we can also send something out.. like probes ?
Adams Rubble: yes like Pema's story :)
Pema Pera: or bypass :)

Steve arrived

Neela Blaisdale: Hi Steve
stevenaia Michinaga: Hi
SophiaSharon Larnia: brb food in oven

stevenaia Michinaga: did spring just arrive or was the grass there all morning?
Scathach Rhiadra: :)
Pema Pera: spring sprung
Scathach Rhiadra: just arrived
Pema Pera: all of a sudden
Neela Blaisdale: :)
Adams Rubble: I felt inspired to use Moon's flowers :)
stevenaia Michinaga: as it usually does
SophiaSharon Larnia: :) someone is wearing Moon's garden I love it :)
Pema Pera: "wearing a garden as a garland"
SophiaSharon Larnia: remined me of wearing the world lightly, although there is little connection
Adams Rubble: :)
Qt Core: nowadays in "civilized" cities the spring is more visible from the elbows that sprung from cars windowsthan from flowers ;-)
Pema Pera: it's a very nice connection, Sophia!
Pema Pera: "wearing our garden lightly", that's lovely!
SophiaSharon Larnia: haha
Pema Pera: hehehe, Qt
Qt Core: rl calling, have to go, bye all
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes Qt 'civilized', that is a whole other topic I could rant on about....
Adams Rubble: by Qt :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: bye Qt
Neela Blaisdale: Bye Qt
Pema Pera: bye Qt!
Scathach Rhiadra: bye QT
Adelene Dawner: cya Qt
Qt Core: i used "ranting" quotes ;-)

Eos Amaterasu: Yes, I've taken part in one conversation so far
Adams Rubble: great! nice to meet you :)
Eos Amaterasu: :-)
Neela Blaisdale: Hello Eos
Eos Amaterasu: Hi Neela
Fefonz Quan: sometimes entering a sessino in the middle, and so many people are quiet, is a strange feeling
Fefonz Quan: like 'did i interrupt something' :0
Fefonz Quan: :)
Pema Pera: :-)
Scathach Rhiadra: :)
Adams Rubble: :)
Eos Amaterasu: Isn't life like that?
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes :)

Anachie Easterwood smiles
Fefonz Quan: like interrupting, or like quiet Eos ? :)
Eos Amaterasu: Like finding yourself here, alive
Adams Rubble: :)
stevenaia Michinaga: I find is usually leads to the new person saying they will listen.... leading them to talk much more than they imagined
Pema Pera: :-)
Fefonz Quan: reminds me of a great comment i put yesterday on my scribe : ' it is so quiet, are we all thinking deeply?'
Adams Rubble: :)
stevenaia Michinaga: so Eros, feel free to "listen"
Adams Rubble: hehe
Eos Amaterasu: thnx :-)
stevenaia Michinaga: Eos
Pema Pera: that is one limitation of a chat log without time stamps -- you can't see if there was a three-minute pause . . . .
Pema Pera: and some conversations then don't make sense any more
Fefonz Quan: Frued would love that one steve
