stevenaia Michinaga: smiles, yes
stevenaia Michinaga: dropping can be a nice way
Eos Amaterasu: how's the dropping dropping theme been going?
stevenaia Michinaga: enjoyable discussions this week, I would ahve never expected
stevenaia Michinaga: have you attended many discussions?
Eos Amaterasu: just a couple
stevenaia Michinaga: taking a familiar or comfortable topic like dropping and adding another abstract layer to it was enjoyable to play with as there were many points of view discussed
Eos Amaterasu: ultimately the subject of dropping is your own life
stevenaia Michinaga: gives thing a new perspective
Eos Amaterasu: which is accessible through every life experience
stevenaia Michinaga: how is that? "is your own life"
Eos Amaterasu: yourself is big time involved in anything you experience
Eos Amaterasu: so dropping that is also dropping this
stevenaia Michinaga: many people have dificulty dropping anything
stevenaia Michinaga: or letting go
Eos Amaterasu: maybe "appreciating" is a more suitable way, then
Eos Amaterasu: you have to let go a little to appreciate something
stevenaia Michinaga: nods
Eos Amaterasu: but if you try to return to that experience it's gone
Eos Amaterasu: already dropped
stevenaia Michinaga: the moew you drop, the more you have "space" to appriciate
stevenaia Michinaga: *more
Eos Amaterasu: yeah, maybe things arise from inside that dropping
Eos Amaterasu: and never leave it
stevenaia Michinaga: it does seem to make for a more peacefull existance
Eos Amaterasu: there's a lot to include within that peace
Eos Amaterasu: all kinds of vivid stuff, good and bad

--BELL--
