oh i am more than happy to sit with you in your unified field every now and again Carol. Wishing udai and housai all the best as they pass by overhead. Its a sweet memory that can even help us through the day. Some of those choices that we have to make are difficult.

leyline,

What do you opine as difficult choices? Would you consider naming a few, and why you consider them difficult?

"What do you opine as difficult choices? Would you consider naming a few, and why you consider them difficult?"

!!!

why would you ask such a question? Are you suggesting that difficult choices do not exist? If not, then i need you to give me a clue as to what the context is. I mean there are so many that can occur in our lives that i wouldn't know where to start other than the blatantly obvious. And besides i have already given an example with regard to my friends dilemma, albeit one that i would concede that many people would not even find concievably difficult even if they were capable of remotely understanding the conflicting forces that were within him in the first place.

But to generalise to the more commonly experienced........ why ask me? Just open a classic work of literature for a start. And why do you ask?

Carol Massey

"And why do you ask?"

Because rarely do members of our species ASK why? Excepting of course the children, whose natural inclination toward learning is to ask WHY??, and traditionally the responses they receive negates not only their questions, but undermines their self-confidence in a way that prevents them from developing their own intelligence regarding the decision-making processes required by life's offering of choices and options?

I suggest that most of our assumptions are just that, and nothing more, based primarily on our 'past experience' or that of our parents and/or teachers, and that rarely does a human bird come along that learns to think for him/herself. This forum, and others very similiar, have a greater potential for learning, no doubt, than the population at large; however, until we learn to differiante between knowledge and assumptions, we are stuck in the mode of "spinning our wheels".

And all this may not be important to you. My intention was not to belittle or otherwise demean you in any way, leyline. I think you are a very exceptional bird, and I have enjoyed our conversations, but I will not satisfy myself with reading a book to substitute my own inner way of knowing.

So I thank you for your time and sharing your ideas, and leave you now to create your next right place. I'll do the same.

Very sincerely...."go shining". Carol
