erik,
 
So there is no god/dess...true there isn't...so what are you gonna  
call It?...I think the Tao would be a good idea. It is easier for  
people to relate, in my experience, to the archetypes of god and  
goddess and the languaging that goes with it. It is also more fun.

How would you define "emotionally healthy" in  your context?

Generally, women tend to want the same qualities in a partner...the  
other stuff is just frosting open to the design of personal  
preference.

I am glad you know you can't be saved. The irony is many people think  
you can be. So many do we now have a name for them: "rescuers". In a  
larger sense there can be no victims without rescuers or rescuers  
without victims. In your situation right now the government would be  
your closest thing to a rescuer. Nothing bad or wrong about it. We  
can all use a helping hand now and then. Actually, if you want a  
helping hand all your life...go for it and live within the  
limitations and privileges that gives you. 
 
This isn't about your real biological mother but an archetype that  
becomes manifested in humans.. I didn't say you had an actual  
smell...I said repellant magic. Its an energy state. In other  
people's eyes you may be a magic magnet for attracting a particular  
kind of people in your life. Looking at your own life based on your  
results you can see what kind of "magic" is working in your life.

Pointing to how other people have screwed up their interpretation of  
these examples does not negate the integrity or validity of the  
original examples. Blaming someone because they fail to live up to  
the power of the intent of the example is self defeating and a straw  
man argument. The point is what do * you*  do with these  
examples...not someone else.

If you know this is a transitory phase...then great.  For those who  
point to situations that keep them ground down by the "man" there are  
many who use that as an opportunity to move to a higher way of living.

A certificate of what? Mastership? There aren't any. The way you live  
your life and the results that you manifest is the testimony to a  
life lived in mastery. Are you living a life that exemplifies  
mastery? If you can't pay the rent and feed your children...is that a  
spirtual master? Mastership is about balance and moderation.

Somethings are difficult to understand and always will be to the  
rational, conscious mind.  I have quit trying to explain or make  
sense about the powerful ecstasy that flows inside of me. It just is.

Here is where it gets interesting. You feel you must work for what  
you deserve? What do you think you deserve?
 
And for Quality? Shit is still shit no matter how pretty you make it  
up and share it with others. I would rather give you beauty and have  
you improve on that. Why do you think you only deserve to be given  
shit to work with? Why did you choose those particular words? If this  
is not so...how do you explain the realities of your life?

So let's pretend you do have that right...would you still be homeless  
if you have that right?

You can't figure out the Tao. If you do it is not the Tao. Escaping  
into humor is one way you cover up the hurt.

It is my basic belief..and beliefs are just my own personal b.s.  
(belief system) that all have the right of free will...to make any  
choice that we want. If I didn't have that belief...you and I  
wouldn't be talking about anything here...and I wouldn't be on this  
list. You have to decide for yourself whether free will operates in  
this universe or are we are all victims of  unchanging fate. That is  
one of the basic tasks one must accomplish on the way to being self- 
actualized.
 
The life you live now is a result of you exercising your right of  
free will. In that right you made personal decisions (mostly in an  
unconscious, unaware state) along the way which are manifesting in  
your life right now. Those decisions have consequences .There is  
often a time duration until the consequences of those decisions are  
played out. In the meantime, start making conscious decisions on  
living your life that take you closer to what it is that you want.  
Eventually, the consequences of those conscious decisions will be  
begin appearing more frequently than those that were made  
unconsciously. Unfortunately, there is a definate time lag between  
moving from living in an unconscious state to a conscious state. At  
first it seems like life is not changing but little by little as days  
go by and you continue to make conscious choices your life slowly  
begins to get a little brighter, a little lighter. It also takes  
practice and discipline...but you have to start or nothing better  
will ever begin to happen for you different in the way you live now.

No I don't. I know you are responsible for yourself and yourself  
alone. Period. Of course, that is my own personal b.s. and I am  
standing by it.

It may have felt like criticism but it is not. You can be whoever you  
want to be. My own bias is that people are supposed to be happy in  
what they choose to be. You would not have written to the list if you  
were not unhappy with your situation. Sometimes honesty and kindness  
feels like cruelty. 
I could have spouted new age crap at you...we would have both felt a  
little better for awhile but I would still be laying a line of shit  
on you.It sounds like you have enough shit around you already, so why  
dump more on you. Why not be real with each other?

I never said I loved them. I don't have to love a man to have sex or  
be intimate with him. It may be too much of a generallization for you  
but it is what I want and is how I discern what I want based on my  
past experiences. I don't care whether or not the ideals are  
rational. Rational to who? Having sex is not always a  rational  
decision. To tell you the truth I would probably have sex with both  
of them, given they both have equal characters, but only consider  
something serious with the one who could offer me more than a box to  
visit him in.
 
Oh i forgot, society is

> and men take women out and pay, i forgot.  Wealth is about

That is what you think, not me. What I know is...the way a person  
lives their life is a reflection of their connection with Spirit. A  
man who lives his life with passion and joy will have that reflected  
in his life. Our relationship with money is a direct reflection of  
our relationship with our inner Self. So to go back to my example  
about having sex with a bum...I possibly would if I discerned that it  
was a temporary situation and  not a permanent reflection of inner  
chaos.

Actually, I see the awesome beauty of everyone's soul regardless of  
how they decide they want to manifest on this planet. Unfortunately,  
most people don't want to see this shimmering beauty that lives  
within them. They prefer to live out the projections of their  
subconscious however they acquired them. They don't believe me when I  
tell them that a god or goddess lives inside them. Does that sound  
familiar to you?
