Do Us All A Favour

[9eagle9]

Perhaps not a thread to duke it out...but a place where people who are feeling emotionally reactive can be supported in drawing out what ever is ailing them.

I know there's a ton of people in here who have that sort of experience and gotten themselves out of the hole via various means. I mean this may not be a place for therapy...but neither is there a place out there in the artificially constructed world either . And it would be hypocritical to say this place will offer you all the support you need on this journey but we won't explicitly and in the present offer you that support. Offering support. inner resources as one does their painful work alone. All the information we need for that is right here in this forum in some fashion or another, and that is something that people can begin to utilize productively now.

If people want the talking to stop and start doing something that is something that can be done, now. And results manifestation very close to instantaneously. Privacy issues? Do we really have a wound that someone else has not experienced for themselves. How would a community be embarrassed to share its dysfunction child abuse, etc etc if we have all been in that same dark place ourselves. Wounds aren't personal they are shared. By everyone in some fashion or another.

If not on forum than someplace easily accessible off forum. Current circumstances affect us all. How could it be personal. Because a person's wounds make it so. But we all have them so how personal can they be. Not to mention PM and chat functions can be utilized for issues of privacy.

Time is late. There comes a time and it has to be now when we all have to pull ourselves together or we will be of use to no one not even ourselves let alone each other. A time to claim SELF authority. When we all have that there are no longer any issues of self doubt and confusion and painful reactionary states. We can't give that which we don't have access to because of our pain. We need to clear out our crud an we know we can't go to the local psychotherapist who are abiding by Faction doctrine and not what is really good for us as free human spirits. People don't need to be treated for their pain, they need to be cured of their wounds and those who have walked the wounded path can help them not by wound wall lowing but leading them to their wholeness. Wholeness is only a path, a tool to be used in purpose. Its the only ones we need.

We are all wounded people. That which was imposed on us didn't occur just in this lifetime. It's generational, its in our psyche from life times of experiencing it. Humans are notorious for finding those who share their wounds they are a virtual magnet. That's why we have patterns in our life. And this is a pattern. Does this **** EVER end? No we see it here, at home, on other forums. A pattern. How long are we going to keep walking in circles? And we ID immediately with those wounds either in a passionate way that can expresses itself in well intentioned caring or in a way where the person sees their own wounds in others and are repelled by what they see. They find their own selves repellent and abuse the person who reflected their own self loathing back. So they hurl insults at that reflection in an awkward attempt to purge it. A cry for help"I'm trying to yark up my shadow self"

Well lets yark it up.

words can't be taken back

heartfelt apologies are a good place to start, and a hug

it seems to me that we must heal this among "our tribe". it is our learning,

it's what we are here to do...

with love,

I have more to add. I have been reading a few different posts today and over the last few weeks. I am really at the end of my tether. Honestly!!!!.... Every single thread I have read has turned into just people getting annoyed with each other. Its so frustrating. I cant read anymore.

Is there anything that can be done here?
Very sad indeed.

My answer is yes, be the change.

Rather than judge it as sad, could we be acceptance, and acknowledge that it is what it is ... then choose a new / opposite direction?

Hello fellow members.
I have seen in the short time I have been here, too many valuable members leave and/or become unwelcome, usually through disputes with other members.
I myself have been in the middle of some of it, so I don't come to you to preach at you as if I were as innocent as the lamb.
The thing that concerns me and I would bet a lot of you too is that even those who become unwelcome have input that is valuable and when they leave, that is lost to us.
Please, do us all a favour, if you have a falling out with another member, a disagreement or whatever, don't go off the deep end and commit internet seppeku, either take it to pm and sort it out respectfully, take a break, report the post or even step away and count to five zillion or something, just DON'T blow yourselves up.
And you better take notice, or I will send my apprentice, Lord Vader around.
He isn't nice, you know.

I have a weakness for men in hoods.

Listen here my jedi imposter friend, I will let Lord Vader know about your fetish.
I doubt that he would be sympathetic, but he might let you work in his hood factory or something.

I implore thee cease. Cease and desist!!!! Too much. Too much I say.



Seriously though, what comes after 9 billion and ninety nine?

Hey! I'm annoyed that you're annoyed that other people are getting annoyed!

Just kidding. Remember, you're dealing with humans here. Tough crowd.

Even Lord Sidious started a Holocaust thread knowing full well what that meant. Right my lord?

I did indeed start a thread on that topic knowing there could and probably would be conflict.
There is no wisdom to be gained in ducking out of the hard topics and this one is one of the biggest and needs to be dealt with.
The thing is, I never start a thread or make a post to provoke another member, that isn't my aim.
Not that I am thinking that is your point, I am just saying.
I see posts that I don't agree with and/or find offensive. Sometimes I answer, sometimes I don't. Usually, I wonder to myself ''Can I make a + contribution with a reply?'' and the answer isn't always yes, so I don't always answer.
I made a post in a thread the other day, meaning to point out something to another poster that I thought might help, but it was taken as an insult and they reacted sharply.
When that happens, that is not about you, but about the way that the poster received the info. As a general rule, I have found that it is the receiving station that is the problem more often than the sending station.
The point I was trying to make in the first post, is that if someones post is not 100% clear to you, don't go off half cocked and call in airstrikes and stuff, as with text, not everything comes out as it is meant.

Very sad indeed.

This is my opinion, but I have to say it.. What needs to be done, is people need to wake up and smell the coffee, because the cream is spoiled.


Agenda- DIVIDE AND CONQUER check

I have stuck around to see if maybe after the poll charles would share something else. Something solid, and not more riddles...........Nothing

I, myself and going to take a hiatus from avalon, because I can't stand it either. If I was an outsider, looking in, I would think Avalon was the laughing stock.
I am not permanently leaving, because I want to continue to support Bill and his cause. But at the moment, Bill and his cause are lost. he's on a long and winding ride, and Charles is driving. I don't care to continue to be a passenger, so I am getting off the bus, but will come back when people here regain their sanity. It is a sad day.

Thats it im done here! Im finding another website and getting away from all you idiotz

POLL WAS FLAWED TO BEGIN WITH

If I was an outsider, looking in, I would think Avalon was the laughing stock.

There are some forums where this is exactly what`s being talked about, I won`t name them

But at the moment, Bill and his cause are lost.

Yes there are some who think that if Bill could do it all over again he might skip this interview......... just relaying what has been discussed

he's on a long and winding ride, and Charles is driving.

I agree wholeheartedly Bill is behaving like a gracious host LIKE ALWAYS

I don't care to continue to be a passenger, so I am getting off the bus, but will come back when people here regain their sanity. It is a sad day.

Agree - If we can´t get along now, how could it be possible in the future. Let people speak their minds, listen to the message and let it ground inside you - then reply. At least we can give ourselves the chance to view a higher, deeper, different meaning of a new vision by digesting it properly.

The circumstances have been unique and as part of that the pot has been constantly agitated. Under different conditions I'm sure there wouldn't have been so much conflict, even with large numbers of new members.
