                                                  Easter Sunday, 2005

                                                       (Version 2.4.1
                                                    was on 7 Apr 2005)

                                                      (Links updated

'

You probably know the feeling of friendship quite well.

     You feel the truth about someone, and friendship follows:

     You discover, what you can and want to give to someone, and you
     try to give that,

     and you expect from another that he or she feels the truth about
     you, and (that he or she) also acts upon that.

'

So we can define it:

     Friendship is feeling the truth about someone and discovering as
     a result, what you can and want to give to someone (and to many,
     as you can have many friendships), and to try to give that -

     and also expecting from another (and from many), to feel the
     truth about you, and that he or she also acts upon that.

'
'
'
'

And now we can more easily look at the distortions and reversals that
 have been introduced:

     Friendship is NOT 'what you have to do and to know and to see, in
     order to get from another (and from others) what you want.'

'

     But Criminal Minds *(1) have made it seem like that, and they try
     very hard to make life, or even a whole society, be like that,

           because that is how THEY are and that is how THEY want
           people to be "friends" to THEM.

           But friendship is NOT 'to only see the mask that a Criminal
           Mind demands of you to accept as "being himself" (or as
           "being herself," as the case may be).'

'
                 A Criminal Mind wants you NOT to feel the truth about
                 him (nor about others),

                 but he intends that you assume and accept and are
                 convinced,

                      (also in order to make life with him "more easy
                       on you," he wants you to accept)

                 that the pretense IS him, that "you are feeling the
                 truth about him," that he "is being himself."

                 That's what he (or she) INTENDS.

'

                             DO NOT EVER FOLLOW THE INTENTIONS OF A
                             CRIMINAL MIND.

'

                 When they demand "friendship," they demand that you
                 accept (and think with, and act upon) their lies

                       as if "what they say, is the truth about
                       themselves," and as if "what they say, is the
                       truth about others."

                       They define a "friend" as someone who believes
                       what they say, and who does what they want.

                             But an actual friend examines what you
                             say and tells you his own observations,
                             and an actual friend tries to understand
                             what you want.

'

           Friendship is NOT 'trying to get someone's approval or
           admiration or support'

                 and getting it by finding out what HE wants you to
                 know and see and do - and of course that means also,

                       what you then have to 'NOT see,' and

                       what past you then have to forget or not
                       remember, or to pretend "does to exist,"

                             in order to maintain a "friendship" with
                             a Criminal Mind, and

                       which normal and decent things you suddenly
                       must then refrain from doing, or even must now
                       suddenly consider is "doing bad or harmful
                       things to him or to others."

           But that is how Criminal Minds think and work and operate -
           and how they try to dominate you and others.

'

     You are not like that - even when you are forced to act like
     that - it is not your nature, it is very much contrary to your
     nature, and it is contrary to the nature of any normal person.

                             DO NOT EVER FOLLOW THE INTENTIONS OF A
                             CRIMINAL MIND -

                                   under no circumstances, other than
                                   to tactically pretend so in order
                                   to carry out YOUR purpose, which
                                   also then is in fact very much the
                                   activity of

                             NOT following the intentions of a
                             Criminal Mind.

'
'
'
'

It IS your nature to be friends with people:

     To feel the truth about them, and

     to then see what they need, and

     to then try and provide (give) that,

     in accordance with your own abilities and possibilities, and

     in line with your personal preferences.  *(2)

'
'

That is what people DO, normally

      - which you can observe immediately when some natural disaster
        occurs somewhere,

                      (by definition, a natural disaster is not
                       intended, nor caused by a Criminal Mind, and
                       therefore it does NOT HAVE the Energy of
                       INTENTION to harm people)

           where people do not have to detect, nor to oppose or to
           overcome the Energy of someone wanting to destroy life,

                 when people do not have to detect and fight against
                 the INTENTION and the lies, by which a Criminal Mind
                 (or a group of Criminal Minds) tries to prevent
                 people from being actually helped but

           where there is NO Criminal Mind to oppose,

        then it is very easy for people to (continue to) feel their
        own nature and thus to follow it -

 to be friends with people,

     which is feeling the true condition of people, and then seeing
     what they need and wanting to provide that, according to your own
     liking,

 because doing so IS the true nature of everyone

    (but not of Criminal Minds - as you may know, by now).  *(1)

'
'

 It is only Criminal Minds *(3), who do enjoy destroying actual
 friendship.

      And they also destroy any actual friendship you give to THEM,
     (because they do not want, that you feel the truth about them,
      and because)

     to them, "friendship" is only 'what one has to do and to know and
     to see in order to get from you and others what one wants;' and
     so

           they also force YOU to act like that to them ("you must
           know, or else you must be taught in various ways, what it
           is that they want, what 'is expected of you' - and that is
           what you must provide to them").

           But...

'
'

 In actual friendship, you (are actively and constantly busy to) feel
 the truth about someone (and about many persons), *(4) and by that,

 you discover, and feel in yourself, what you can and want to give to
 someone (and to many).  *(5)

'

 Also - in actual (reliable) friendship - you are not acting upon
 feelings and ideas that a Criminal Mind projects at you

          (about others, about your friend(s), and about yourself and
           about the world in general) - feelings and ideas that you
           receive AND that are

     projected by Criminal Minds in such a way, that it feels to you,
     as if "you are feeling your own feelings and thoughts."
     *(6)(7)(8)

 You stand up to these and you try and feel truth, because that is
 friendship.  *(9)
