Cosmicflower Ushimawa: hehe, this planet is so amazing as it is, and most try to make this a "paradice" and humans to "angels"

Cosmicflower Ushimawa: maby its how its going?
Bertram Jacobus: yeah, right cosma - there are always so may things in life. some good, some bad. buddhists call that "mixed karma" ... and how about you ? ;-)
Dash Earthboy: sorry, Bert, yes you're right...how's it going?...i was a soccer coach for the YMCA here and I used to greet the kids that way
--BELL--
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: hmm, when thinking all the picture, without being stuck on some exact point, I think I am happy
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: Smiling To Dash
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: we have a quite same kind of sayin
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: -g
Dash Earthboy: ya
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: seen much dreams- again
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: got extra energy
Dash Earthboy: i like when the mixed karma leans toward the positive side
Bertram Jacobus: hehe. ty dash. so now i know - a bit more ... :-)
Bertram Jacobus: and nice and interesting answer cosma :-)
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: learned to harness / tack the energy of anger to use it wicely
Dash Earthboy: always best
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: hmm
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: what else
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: living, loving with huge temperament
Dash Earthboy: do you work with horses in RL there Cos?
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: thats my life
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: I guess
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: hehe
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: hmm
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: I have no horse
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: rl
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: one
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: but One as a spiritual guide, yes
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: ;))
Dash Earthboy: you used harness and tack ;)
Dash Earthboy: i've enjoyed horses since I was a kid
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: well, thats the way I felt I did to energy of anger
Dash Earthboy: even riding bareback
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: to use it wisely
Dash Earthboy: yes
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: I learned it
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: it was actually very interesting
Dash Earthboy: some people aren't even aware of such energy
Dash Earthboy: let alone the ability to use it wisely
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and it is mostly something people try to awoid
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: as much as they came
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: can
Dash Earthboy: ya
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: thinking its something "bad"
Dash Earthboy: ya
Calvino Rabeni: :)
Dash Earthboy: and it can be
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: But I think I found the way also to deal with my temperament
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: I guess
Dash Earthboy: some of the other coaches let their players take out anger on my players with fouls
Dash Earthboy: i taught mine to use the adrenalin to move the ball...stay in the game
Dash Earthboy: do words of anger live in your poetry, Cal?
Calvino Rabeni: Interesting question Dash
Calvino Rabeni: I was called to show anger for another man
Calvino Rabeni: he could not move it from inside
Dash Earthboy: uh oh
Calvino Rabeni: and so just carried it for too long
Calvino Rabeni: so I was asked to demonstrate it
Calvino Rabeni: expressing the energy, the look and feel
Dash Earthboy: do our emotions control us or do we control our emotions?
Calvino Rabeni: I was not actually angry at any one
Calvino Rabeni: except for him
Dash Earthboy: ah, i see
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: hm, I think its both ways, that controlling
Calvino Rabeni: perhaps we are our emotions
Calvino Rabeni: not so much controlling, but being made of them
Bertram Jacobus: 5 cosma ! ;-)
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: sometimes people go with their emotion
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: -s
Dash Earthboy: poets or people in general?
Calvino Rabeni: it isn't like a separate force
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and sometimes they try to keep them , controll them
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: no, emotions come from inside
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: maby it should let go controlling
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and let raise up, what there is coming
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and see it
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: not fear it
Calvino Rabeni: emotions are the movement of the feeling part of us
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: ah, yes
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and sometimes anger might also raise up, because defending the truth
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: if someone do say a lye
Dash Earthboy: the superintendent of Atlanta schools has tried to turn emotions & truth into a matter of manners
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: then there might raise up the anger, because inside do recognice the lye , that its not truth
--BELL--
Dash Earthboy: according to school superintendent, children who don't automatically respond to a rhetorical "how are you?" with "fine, and you?" need to be taught manners by teachers as well as by their parents.
Dash Earthboy: i think the rhetorical question used in place of a simple hello greeting is bad manners
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: smili8ng
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: well, me too doing some typo here
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: hmm
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: I was just wondering, what would happen, if people truely tell how they are
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: when asked
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: the truth
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: ;)
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and also why they feel so
Dash Earthboy: i believe they should
Bertram Jacobus: don´t we do that here ?
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: exactly
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: well, here yes
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: mostly
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: sometimes not
Bertram Jacobus: i do that mostly everywhere
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: sometimes people are playing "hiding"
Dash Earthboy: Bert, are you familiar with "rhetorical"
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: yes, me too
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: Being very open
Bertram Jacobus: yes dash, ty
Dash Earthboy: great!
Dash Earthboy: that's another thing I advocate for: understanding the words we use to communicate
Calvino Rabeni: How would things be different if we did that?
Bertram Jacobus: i know what that means. hope you meant that dash (?)
Calvino Rabeni: I mean about expressing ...
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: hmm
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: maby less "hiding"
Calvino Rabeni: How about "complaining" - more or less of that? :)
Dash Earthboy: Cal, when I try to be open and tell the truth, I get ostracized here...especially in church or government setting
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: ah, well
Calvino Rabeni: Yes, that's how it works Dash
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: maby its about people`s will
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: what kind it is
Dash Earthboy: why is "complaining" bad?
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: if its "complaining" or
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: charing joy
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: is it bad? I think complaining is feeling Pain, different kind of pain
Dash Earthboy: i like friends whom I can share joy AND sorrow with
Dash Earthboy: even complain if I want to
Dash Earthboy: or compliment something nice!
Dash Earthboy: like y'all
Bertram Jacobus: ithink people prefere so much feeling well and may even fear feeling bad. so the agreements are "how are you ? - fine, thx and you ?" - or similar ...
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: yes Bert
Dash Earthboy: yep
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and they maby also try to lye to one-self
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: so that wont face the pain
Dash Earthboy: for sure
Dash Earthboy: i call that "living in denial"
Calvino Rabeni: Yes, however it doesn't make sense to express, if there are no listeners
Dash Earthboy: as a social worker, I advised my clients never to live in denial
Calvino Rabeni: so if there are to be freer expression, there need to be truer listeners
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: but it need aware mind, to see what is happening in one-self
Dash Earthboy: for sure Cal
Calvino Rabeni: One reason not to express, is because there is no one to speak to
Dash Earthboy: yes Cos
Dash Earthboy: yes, Cal
Calvino Rabeni: and also I've found, if there are truer listeners, then the expression does not sound like complaining any more
Dash Earthboy: that's my current problem here
Calvino Rabeni: it sounds different
Dash Earthboy: yes
Calvino Rabeni: complainign is also a kind of lie
Dash Earthboy: it's really just sharing accurate info then
Calvino Rabeni: yes
Calvino Rabeni: accurate feeling
Dash Earthboy: i've seen lies masked as complaints...is that what you mean, Cal?
Calvino Rabeni: accurate feeling isn't so much about what happened, it's about who people are, as I have found it
Calvino Rabeni: I mean, the quality is different, between a complaint, and an expression of an experience of pain
Bertram Jacobus: how could my bad feelings in the cafe where i´m sitting just now in first life , be expressed in various ways , bad feelings , because i feel pushed not stying too long here, using my computer, consuming more and more and such ?
Dash Earthboy: i'm listening Bert
Bertram Jacobus: that´s already all. how could that be explained as a complain and in which other way ?
--BELL--
