Service 2 Others = Service 2 Self

[Harper]

I can't tell you how much I dislike this divisive polarisation that is bandied about. You are either in service to self (and you are in evil camp) or you are in service to others (and you are up there with jesus).

Its so much nonsense, all generosity is selfish at its core and it doesnt matter, there are as many helpers as there are victims and they are totally dependant on each other, two sides of the same coin.

Who is anyone to claim they have the answer for another. Priests have nothing to do without sinners hehehehe.

And a white feather just landed on my window sill so I will desist now.

I know its not a popular way of seeing but it is only when you can see you are everything all at once, the helper and the victim that anyone can ever step out of the dark.

Forget popularity! We're talking TRUTH here, Harper!

I totally agree - we are both of these polarities. There really is no one or the other. Even those who seem to be entirely service-to-self has SOMETHING in their life that brings out their loving, generous side - just as someone who seems to be entirely service-to-others has something in their life that causes them to act in a self-centred or "selfish" way. We aren't just pieces of paper with status to fill in - we are three-dimensional (I'm talking physical here - not the obvious many other dimensions we fill in the aetheric! ) beings with ups and downs and in-betweens!

Thanks for your comment, Harper; I really resonated with it! <3
