Paradise Tennant: yes .. truth we all know in a way
Lucinda Lavender: giving further expression to meaning somehow...
Paradise Tennant: we feel it as well as know it like a vibration
Lucinda Lavender: nods
oO0Oo Resident: the sense of surrender/welcome Paradise, rings familiar.. like we can orient to being 'willing', then things pass through
oO0Oo Resident: energies

Lucinda Lavender: expressing what has been removed from others experience
Lucinda Lavender: wait...removed from the blind persons experience

oO0Oo Resident: http://www.sns.ias.edu/~piet/act/nat/index.html
Lucinda Lavender: thanks you Samuo
Lucinda Lavender: My friend that I was about to describe to you...has lymphoma...
oO0Oo Resident: yw.. just check to see if anyone feels it's an OK link to have on the wiki? I guess it's in the public domain, but..?
Lucinda Lavender: and he has a blog called Lymphomartini
oO0Oo Resident: oh Luci.. Lymphoma... ::nods::
Lucinda Lavender: I learned from reading there that he gave a speech on how it has effected his life...to get cancer...
Lucinda Lavender: he is about 30 years old

Archmage Atlantis: ty loves
Archmage Atlantis: I still have myself to answer to
Paradise Tennant: we have been talking of being open .. to the fullness of life its energies
stevenaia Michinaga: yes and the depth they penetrate
Lucinda Lavender: yes an I thought that I could share my friends talk on dealing with lymphoma...sorry I have not quite learned how to share it...
Archmage Atlantis: Being open, that is a good topic........sometimes being open gives oneself gifts, sometimes it gives oneself pain
stevenaia Michinaga: the gift of feeling can be both
Lucinda Lavender: just look to Lymphomaartini...and the youtube talk...he achieved openess to having cancer I would say...
Archmage Atlantis: Yes, steven aia

Paradise Tennant: good nite stev .thank you :) sweet dreams
Lucinda Lavender: thank you Paradise...watched it this morning for the first time and am very impressed..
--BELL--
Archmage Atlantis: Wol would like that we are seated to balance the circle (well closely)
Paradise Tennant: sometimes difficult is like a fertilizer .. it grows .. you
Archmage Atlantis: Agree, Paradise
Paradise Tennant: they contemplating death is time well spent
Paradise Tennant: it makes you think clearly on how you spend your time here
Lucinda Lavender: yes Paradise...
Paradise Tennant: we tend to gloss over that fact .. ignore .. pretend ..
Archmage Atlantis: We do not die in my philosophy Horatio, one always is born of a mother

Lucinda Lavender: anyway...just wanted to share the link since it does move me also today...
Paradise Tennant: nods .. very hard to watch people be so brave sometimes
Paradise Tennant: *people
Lucinda Lavender: yes...
Lucinda Lavender: many ways of opening and being...
Paradise Tennant: wonders at the other ways of being
Paradise Tennant: the dreaming being .. or even non being
Lucinda Lavender: some do their best to absorb the information
Lucinda Lavender: ah and in dreaming there is such wispiness and many feel it is to be dismissed
Lucinda Lavender: thinking alot about what is an illusion today...
Paradise Tennant: hmm yes me too
Paradise Tennant: very interesting when you really try to pin down the real and the non real
Lucinda Lavender: nodding with a smile
Lucinda Lavender: smile
Paradise Tennant: we all seem to live in little subjective realities each alittle different
Paradise Tennant: but likely quite unreal :)
--BELL--
Lucinda Lavender: I try to step back and let go of the pictures I get of what is seemingly real...and I suppose I just keep trying to see more new threads of what appears to be true...perhaps the silence is the most true...
Paradise Tennant: smiles a huge smile
Paradise Tennant: perhaps the silence is the most true ...
Paradise Tennant: love that !
Lucinda Lavender: just being in the questioning mode ...with the silence
Paradise Tennant: yes
Lucinda Lavender: so here we sit with minute and grand scale things in our awareness...
Lucinda Lavender: minute
Paradise Tennant: smiles yes
Paradise Tennant: if we are going on what is true ..love is true
Lucinda Lavender: and there is perhaps an acceptance of what is...which for me is not too complex...
Paradise Tennant: yes love is easier if you just accept
Lucinda Lavender: think of love as deep connection...
Paradise Tennant: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXo3NFqkaRM
Paradise Tennant: smiles yes :) for all sentient beings :)
Lucinda Lavender: :)
Paradise Tennant: love that clip one of m favorites ..
Lucinda Lavender: yes!
Paradise Tennant: wonders what they would tell us if they could just manage the vowels
Paradise Tennant: and the consonants
Lucinda Lavender: seem so intelligent in their eyes
Lucinda Lavender: showing some pretty complex feelings at times ...more than I realized not knowing the dogs too well
Paradise Tennant: yes
Paradise Tennant: smiles
Lucinda Lavender: think I will go soon...
Paradise Tennant: okies
