Re: Dear Sirs
Hey Everyone--
Thanks again for the warm words and support. I really didn't know what would come of the OP. In my last post, I forgot to thank those who have sent me messages in private. One of you may notice that I borrowed a phrase from you. Somehow I know you don't mind.
I would like to add something. I want all of you to understand that even though I may be learning what I would describe as languages new to me, it does not mean that I have turned away from this signed picture of Christ that I carry on my heart. He gave it to me. (I still speak Christian  ). It's just that He leads me as always, and He has led me to where I am. I have no doubt that some, if not most, of you know what I mean. But it is difficult to express, and obviously there will be times when some will misunderstand. But I gotta go where He leads, even if it doesn't appear to make any sense.
Flow--I am certain that the languages I learn will evolve. You do understand that I have had this kind of experience before, don't you? But each time is a little different. This time, I was most affected by letting the words fly free where they may. Maybe before, I didn't really let go. I know this is not crazy jibberish to you. I'd venture to say that there are several here who can totally relate.
There is a reason for every single thing that happens. Even a broken record.
InPeace,
InLove

Re: Dear Sirs
Dear InLove,
And sometimes the greatest gift we can give to another in a heartfelt way, is to say - I understand, and don't you know it's going to be alright............ and it is...... you know.
love - c -

Re: Dear Sirs
InLove...yes..sometimes it's perfect when you let it go immediately, and then sometimes it requires a little massaging (like Jean Luc's head) to get it all into understandable/useable form.
Maybe I.Brian could wall off a section somewhere in his vast digitized empire so that such spiritually communicated works can be shared, read, and commented upon. I miss Okie's essays. Anyone know what's up with that ?
I'd contribute, wouldn't you ? It would also be worthwhile to share the circumstances under which the messages/inspirations were received perhaps ?
flow....

That could be interesting and inspirational, flow. This was also mentioned to me in some of the private messages I spoke about, so you aren't alone in that thinking. I wonder if a thread in Belief and Spirituality might work just as well? Have you seen the prayer thread there?
I think we are met with spiritually communicated works here in the forums on a regular basis. Some of the stuff I read here would seem to have no other explanation. I'm thinking there are folks (maybe you?) who experience this quite often, but just don't say so. As for me, and what happened here, I don't know how often I could handle the intensity of it, but maybe it gets easier. LOL--now I am just getting into an area of discussion that I don't really know how to discuss! All I know is that I have got to make sure that I don't take any bows for simply writing what was somehow given me to write. There was a need for the words, and the need was filled at the right time and place. And that is all I know.

Maybe he is just taking a break. His board was unusually busy there for a while. I subscribe to his newsletters, but I am behind in reading them. Maybe he has said something there. I will let you know if I run across anything. Sure hope he's doing okay. I know the weather where he is was very rough there for a while.
InPeace,
InLove

Re: Dear Sirs
Dear Sirs,
I have now closed my doors to you,
For you who suffer God
And would proclaim God to suffer
In your likeness
I would to offer God liberation.

Re: Dear Sirs
Hey Deb,
I'm not good at this stuff.
I liked the poem, but it bummed me out. I used to write poetry when I had more pain in my life, but things have straightened out for me. In some ways, though, I sometimes think about wishing for a little pain stimulus to reactivate the muse, but then...pain sucks! I've got tension. I mean, there's tension between all the opposite urges in life: kinda the Tao thing where everything contains a little bit of the other, but I've made peace with it and I don't want to go back. I dunno, being sensitive has its rewards, but I need a filter or else I'll carry the weight of the whole world, and I don't wanna. I've got a family and concerns of my own. But, and still, I care.
Thanks! You're beautiful! I love it!
Chris

Re: Dear Sirs
Just one more thing to do before I log out for the day. And that is just to say that Cage, my brother, I think we may be kindred spirits.
InPeace,
InLove
