Dear members,
got a lot to say but don´t know exactly where to start since writing is not my privilege. May be it will be soon...
It`s not easy for me to tighten and keep contacts. I´m a sagittarius and I´m always somewhere else.
But I will improve to stick to a discussion going on.
I`ve read some of this group`s post of the past and I want to tell you that I feel very good,comfortable and save in your company.
I think we share a lot of things. Especially the need to search for new answers.
You talked about the inner glow. I experienced the inner dakness.
Well I once almost burned myself because of the inner mounting flame I couldn`t controll. Too much energy but no direction to use it.
I started the inner war with myself and projected it on to the outside world which I denied.
Now I am 40 years old. My war lasted for about 36 years I think. I survived myself. I´m the winner and looser at the same time.
I started out to loose myself. Alcohol abusement for instance, lonelyness, aggression, frustration once and all together again back and forward.
I seriously got ill. My illness was my biggest chance to change. I know this now. It was some kind of sign I couldn`t oversee.
Now after 4 long years recovering, wandering on my new path I feel much more relation and connection to everything,mankind, nature, good and bad things. Feels like being born again. I honestly have the feeling that I died. At least parts of me died. Sometimes I think that I`m already dead. All is nothing and nothing is all.
Knowing myself better now, I start to understand others.You are like me.We are all like ourselves. If I don`t like you I probably don`t like myself.
Nowadays I`m in charge of a group for young addicts and polytox people.
I work for good in my spare time. This has become very important to me.
Once I had a dog. Melvin was his name. He taught me a lot. I believe that dog is god. Just one example. We all are god. At least we could become godlike.
The religion I was taught once- roman catholic- frightened me because of a god seeing, hearing and knowing everything. A god there to punish me. Because he´s god and I´m a man never reach him, never be equal.
Nowadays I´m a "pagan" with a deep interest in hinduism and buddhism .
Jesus is and was a very important symbol to me especially when I was ill.
The "jesus" of our days to me is dalai lama.
Enough brainstorming.
I was earth-googling and flying to cedar grove. Pretty rural or?
I have a nice shirt saying: " Cherokee-North Carolina". My mum once took it along for me when she was visiting friends in Knoxille I think.
Blessed be.
Hans
