We really need laughter and music to balance the remarkably good flow of information here.

No way "better" ... just "balance".

Looks like a good and entertaining movie.
The only thing is that a movie about synchronicities can never work.
What makes a good synchronicity is the fact that it happened in REAL life where there are no screen writers creating those scenarios.

The other (real) synchronicity is about the story of the diver who was picked out
of the lake by the water bucket the fire fighting plane was carrying.

I read that story over ten years ago on a forum.
It started like this: after a large forest fire a charred body was found amongst the still smouldering tree trunks.
What was unusual was that he had on a diver suit, diving mask and flippers. The ocean was ten miles away.
So the police figured that the only way he could have ended up there was by being lifted out of the ocean while snorkeling.... by one of the fire-fighting plane's large water buckets.

There was quite a discussion about this story on that forum at the time. Someone said it had happened for real and another person said it was made up by someone with a rich fantasy life.
Ten years later we find the same story in the movie Magnolia.

So now we know where screen writers get their stories:
They read threads like this one.

It looks like that you will have to buy new refrigerator or at least to repair the old one

Magnolia, Magnolia...... (Newlyn you'll be delighted to watch tis movie) here it is one of the emotional climax.
All the characters, take a rest to sing altoghether the theme by Aimee Mann "IT'S NOT GOING TO STOP".
I think it's good to see the movie firts, but the sequence has a meaning by itself.

HERE AND NOW..... IT'S NOT GOING TO STOP

Here and Now...It has rained. I heard no rain, or thunder-not a storm. But it smells like it rained, and obviously everything is wet outside. Maybe a good shower is what everyone around here needed. I suspect this area would have benefited only if there had been soap in the air. The only sounds I hear are one clock keeping its rhythm, the hum of my laptop, and the good ole dog snoring. Every once in a while there's a bird singing.

I'm a bit hollow. Confusion and unrest have been toying with me, and I miss the connection that I fleetingly but powerfully feel at times.

My daughter and her little one moved in with us when they needed help getting on their feet. After several months, she sprouted her wings. Within weeks, my neice with her 3 babies under the age of 2 moved in. Those babies didn't talk or babble, they didn't giggle, and hadn't ever had toys. They needed love and nurture and discipline that was healthy, as did my neice. After probably 6 or 8 months, she sprouted her wings. She was strong, loving and firm, and had learned what it is to be a mom. Only months after she left, my brother found himself in a situation so he moved in. That has been 2 years ago and he is finally taking steps to become independent again. He will be sprouting his wings soon.

I have been looking forward to this coming time, when my two daughters still at home will have only their parents in their environment. And moving out of the city will be good for them, even though it will be full of its own challenges. I'm looking forward to not having anyone else in our home for a while. I had promised myself that no matter who pulls at my heart strings, I will be strong and say no. Then this young man comes into our lives. He has a good heart. He asked if he could move with us to the country.

Now, am I faced with this decision because I need to say no? Is it a test to see if I have learned boundaries? Or, am I being selfish to want to finally be able to focus on my girls and myself? This is one of those times where I would listen to the wisdom of my higher self.

There's a plan for me here, there is something here for me to do or be. I still have no idea what that is. I used to feel a really annoying nagging constantly, and looking back I think I found what I was supposed to find. It was the world that cannot be seen with human eyes. My mind was very sheltered, by life I suppose, or by my higher self, until it was time. And when it was time, it was like a nagging, annoying alarm clock going off continually for a loonnngg time. Now I'm not feeling that, but I am feeling confusion and uncertainty. There are some things that I just "know" and I can't verbalize them. Then, there is all this information swirling. So many things I know nothing about...astrology, numerology, symbology, and I cannot have an intelligent conversation about higher consciousness or how to access it...complete books have been written about those. In this coming year, with the move especially, it is a physical impossibility for me to learn everything about everything lol. For now, I would feel more reassured if I could ask my higher self, "what would you like me to know right now?"

Much Love,

Why not combine it all? Continue to have people live with you.
Give them some responsibilities while they are there, even get them to contribute with the bills.
Just make sure you don't spoil them, but you seem to have that well under wraps.
Then let them know you need your space as you are studying.
Disappear into your world...once a day, at a certain hour.
That way you can still enjoy the nurturing.
For as long as you live, you will be a Cancerian Mother Hen...and it's best not to ever stifle that part of you.
Hugs...

Ha, ha... and that same story i saw in an CSI VEGAS episode.

I'm sorry to disagree that a movie about synchronicities won't work. I understand what you mean. If you're deep in the movie, the synchronies are feel like almost in real life.

Same name, different face elsewhere.
Bilocation got a new meaning.
Same realm though.

Ah, cryptospeak, a favorite of mine.

I think he wants you to notice his new avatar.
Not sure though what he is smoking.
Bilocation is one of my dreams....
Das Meer, please elaborate further.

No, he wants to focus on bi-location.

Hilarious!
This page is fast becoming one of the funniest in the whole thread.
Unfortunately I ran out of trophies, but as soon as the new supply arrives you both will get one. One each.

Erm...
it's simple.
Jorr invited me to Ishtar's Gate,
where i've got the same name,
but am using another avatar there.
To have a look at what some of the lost gems are doing.
Sorry for being too [deliberately] cryptic...

@meeradas. I knew what you meant by bilocation. I thought it best for you to flesh it out. Crytospeak has its reasons. Translating without conferring is bad manners. IMO

It's perfectly ok to disagree with me. We both just want to know where the other one stands.
Maybe you are lucky that you can get that kind of a WOW feeling just by watching a movie.

It only happens for me nowadays when life itself gives signals of an invisible writer/producer/director,
someone who has no web address to link me to.

But on the other hand, maybe not all screen writers are plagiarists...some of them might even be channels for an unseen Writer in the Sky.

Belle has that ever more elusive sixth sense.....common sense. Becoming a very rare article and people tend to dismiss it as being mundane, but it's not. It's very much a peice of that paradigm that everyone wants--commonality. Oneness, something this shared beween many. In all aspects of our life, from government to politics to socializing, common has been set aside for things that have a mystical or emotional appeal but not much in the way of purpose.

Posted by eaglespirit (here)
And Belle...I cannot speak for all those that frequent the Here and Now...but I will take a stretch and say that most of Us are grateful for Your being here and adding Your wonderful Energy to the mix...and if there is anywhere on this forum or the internet, for that matter, to open up fully without hesitation it is right here with us.
Thank You for all Your heartfelt sharing thus far : )

It seems like you are in a process that you are handling. Without your feeling or leadings you may not move what needs to move. You may have talent that is meant to be shared in order for you to in in service to others.

Thanks, eaglespirit, 9eagle9 and Modwiz. This Village is a magical place, and I'm happy to be a part of it. With so many unique, beautiful and talented people here, it's been difficult to see what I bring to the table. You've helped to clarify that for me.

My perspective has been one of simplicity...that nothing is as complicated or distilled as it may seem at first glance. Differences appear, but we have so much more in common than not...I seem to focus in on what brings us together, not what separates us. A little understanding can go a long way.

It's like the saying “can't see the forest for the trees”...so many trees, one forest. I see the forest and how all the trees work together...individual, yes, but dancing as one when the winds blow.

I don't say anything that we all don't already know, but sometimes the words just need to be spoken as a reminder that what separates us is much smaller than what binds us together....And together, as one forest, we are so much more powerful than each individual tree standing alone.

And something that has happened only occasionally is growing exponentially irl as well as here now...knowing, seeing and understanding things that do not appear to be coming from a place of conscious knowledge within myself. To act on them is like jumping out of an airplane without a parachute...okay, well, maybe there is a bungee cord attached to my ankles, but all I see is the ground coming closer and closer. I hesitate to jump, but 'something' pushes and prods and pokes until do. Besides, the information is not something I can control....not who, what, when, where or how. Nice to know I'm not alone and in a safe place to learn...and can make mistakes without ridicule. Okay, okay, ridicule away so long as it is done in love and support.

By the way...this is not a highway....it's the German Autobahn!

There's another thing that Germany stands for...

has anybody else noticed they really like beer [so much that the country is named like that]:

Their beer is so good it is hard not to love it.

Not the German Autobahn either, as there are too many pile-ups when it gets foggy, due to it's no speed limit nature.
Here we travel on air cushions, over land and sea.
The only things we don't like here are walls and fences.
