Cosmicflower Ushimawa: silence is good element too
Igz Dagostino: silence is never a good element or me
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: brb
Igz Dagostino: not always.. just sometimes..
Bertram Jacobus: i´m happy about silence sometimes ... and if not : there are so many noises in the modern world (!) that i can always switch the silence off so to say ;-)
Wester Kiranov: i think it's a good thing about these sessions. there can be silence, talk can grow out of that sometimes, and either way is fine
Bertram Jacobus: that´s the way i feel that too wester
Wester Kiranov: :)
Igz Dagostino: Sometimes i want to speak..
Igz Dagostino: sometimes i want to remain silent
Bertram Jacobus: and that is very much appreciated here too igz !
Igz Dagostino: well thanks i guess..
Igz Dagostino: There are times i cannot remain silent for all
Bertram Jacobus: so please feel free to do so and you will enrich our circle ! ... :-)
Igz Dagostino: sometimesi just need to speak up
Igz Dagostino: oh thansk bertram
Bertram Jacobus: it´s always here, that we enrich each other. that is my impression and experience ...
Bertram Jacobus: space and community can be found here ...

Igz Dagostino: the time when i am brave enough to live on my own..
Bertram Jacobus: ah oh i see ...
Bertram Jacobus: but i think, in a way we do that always : live our own lifes ... don´t we ?
Wester Kiranov: igz -sorry i'm a bit late with this - but you do know that all we say is recorded?
Igz Dagostino: yeah i'm aware
Wester Kiranov: good
Igz Dagostino: is it bad
Wester Kiranov: is what bad?
Igz Dagostino: nevermind
Igz Dagostino: i knew what you meant
Igz Dagostino: very silent
Bertram Jacobus: yes ...
Bertram Jacobus: sometimes it is
Igz Dagostino: imagine if everyone in the world would be silent for a few minutes
Bertram Jacobus: and better then chit chat abour silly things i find ...
Igz Dagostino: silly things..
Igz Dagostino: you dont mean the silly things people mention outside of here ?
Bertram Jacobus: nice idea ! and i think - hm - at least many may be (silent for a few minutes at lest now and then) (?) ... :-)
Wester Kiranov: silly things have their place sometimes
Igz Dagostino: if they are funny
Igz Dagostino: or intresting
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: started to think that global silence
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: if even machnes do not make noise
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: it would be interesting
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: feel
Bertram Jacobus: in a way yes : i also love entertainement. but - we all have our needs and ways of living, talking, communicating. and i know groups who nearly never talk seriously. that i personally don´t like ...
Wester Kiranov: I think only natural silence is healing. if it were forced, people would just feel uncomfrtable with it
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: sure
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: but if it would appear
Wester Kiranov: ah... that would be lovely
Igz Dagostino: if the world were silent it'd be giving me a favor.. but i dont force them to be silent
Igz Dagostino: but i wonder why
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: in silence?
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: i think
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: maby in silence people find beter who they are
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: what they need
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and why they are
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: important questions
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: if not "going" all the time
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: but to stop
Bertram Jacobus: but also with good friends you can find out such i guess ...
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: yes
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: naturally ;D
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: people help one and another to find more one-self
Bertram Jacobus: also patience is very helpful
--BELL--
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: yes
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: all takes its time
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: or does it?
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: what if all can happen now
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: if choose so
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: no need to think
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: it takes time
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: ah, its not really silent time
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: its one kind of rule
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: or habit
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: but
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: try to remember next time
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: _/!\_
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: sure
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: we can have it ;)
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: all is good
Bertram Jacobus: i must admit, i feel that too : it´s a good training although i don´t find it always easy (to keep that silence if so to say "ordered" - but also it´s me, who decides to do that, to accept and such ...
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: ah, yes
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: but its good people do say
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: what they want
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: ;)
Cosmicflower Ushimawa: and when
Bertram Jacobus: but would you say that all rules are bad ?
