Here and Now...What's Happening?

[astrid]

Yes sad news on that death, i have added it to my list to take a peak into later,
will do what i can, what I'm allowed to do , etc.

Posting while drunk, i have done, but for me these days drunk is two glasses of wine
then I'm pretty much asleep, what happens when you detox, you get to become a cheap
date, lol. But i haven't touched a drop in a over a month. But I do sometimes miss
my glass of wine a night, and i have noticed that dark chocolate and coffee are making
a sneaky re appearance, but when i over do either of them i feel pretty crappy
the next day. One good thing about detoxing your body then lets you know
pretty clearly what you can and can't eat. I actually thought that by now i would have fallen
off the wagon, but it seems like this is a long term change.

I walk through all the junk to get what is left of my supermarket needs, which is mostly for the
dogs, and nothing tempts me or catches my eye, even in the slightest. I see people with trolleys
brim filled with chips, coke, chocolate and white bread, and look at how unwell they look,
not to mention the obese children. It's a whole different life when you don't crave things anymore.

Here and now I wonder if I am one of a handful of people who do not post while drinking. I often get replies and exchanges with English speaking people that seem like some translation has been lost. It reminds me of when I was a sober bartender. Tends to take the whole point out of a conversation. I am being not kidding either.

The Village has spoken.....

A -fluent = lost in translation -no dry martinis in the Village please.

I haven't touched a drop of anything in over 5 year...... and no way....

When I was a child (8.5) I had a fever. I went completely numb. Lost all feeling in my body. I was also doing stilled meditation at the same time. I reached Kundalini and went back to, for while..of being incapable of sleeping at night. Like I did when I was 5.

So, when I heard this 'wall'..when I was 13, well........ I was blown away. Of course, Roger is another Virgo. (Sept 6. 1943)

You were doing stilled mediation at 5?!?

I have just learned that a friend (a Virgo also) of mine lost his twin brother yesterday. Car accident. He lost a daughter during childbirth 4 years ago, which tore him apart.
He knows not of things spiritual of this world and it breaks my heart knowing the pain he is in and that he will not be able to detach from it, and so neither can I.....

sorry. sleepless at 5.

Stilled meditation at age 8.5, woke up my kundalini.

Listening right now to:

There are reasons for such things happening. Maybe some day I might explain the why and how. Let us just say that to use such methods of training children to open their minds are generally doomed to failure. None will escape unscarred and few will make it to a stable adulthood. Most would implode, and do.

There is a reason I did not walk for the first 2.5 years of my life.

I'll also say that the way to branch a hippocampus as it flows into higher functions and into the developing intellect, and helping a mind evolve ---can happen in many ways. It is like trimming the emergent growth back on a tree to get the stalk to split. Then keep doing it. For a long time. The corollary is that they say: 'the first time a given mind or person realize that they are alone in this world, is the point at which the intellect begins developing.'

Sorry about the friend's situation.

The Village is not the real problem. Sometimes, I wonder, but it was 'out there' that prompted my post. Since I rarely complain or rant, it seemed OK to let some frustration out here.

[astrid]

I must say though, this last week, there has been an increase in the number of people
going home that i have been aware of.

Somehow this song came to mind right here,
maybe it was the "out there " comment.

I used to love playing this one.

I agree Carmody with the feeling alone comments,
when one gets over that ( if in fact one ever does) that's when things really start to happen. I guess it's akin to the fear of death in it's ability to really catapult one's
growth. The thing i do question now though, is whether i have become too attached
to my own alone-ness, that is part of what im trying to figure out this year, its going to be interesting to see.

Thank you. I do acknowledge that we arrive and leave alone. In between the fullstops, potential does grows.
For those without the privilege of hippocampus navigation and development, we tread this plane emotionally vulnerable.
Accepting a certain intellectual handicap and amnesia may be a blessing....

Ulli so happy you made it to your destination safely.

The guitar is unbelievably beautiful -they have always been my favorite of the string or any other kinds of musical instruments.

Another storm has blown in expecting more snow up here on the mountain. Have a good hot fire going in the stove and enjoying the quiet of the forest.

Saw a Golden Eagle today while driving up the mountain -they always seem magical to me. They use to be abundant here in California -rare to see them now.

UN LUGAR SOLITAIO; translated...In A Lonely Place, but it means so much more...does anyone know who the Huicholes are? All of us are in such a place as we have never been before,we need to connect and understand,and find these things out now!Give strength to each other,speak up with heart felt convictions...I may be out of line here on Avalon,not being or living up to every ones standards,but it more than scientific & reports of late that we all need to be talking about...and we had better get started!And if these words make your heart pump a little faster,um maybe then just maybe you feel it too.

Kizzey, We Love You with open arms and open hearts here at Here and Now!

No need to apologize for being an advanced older soul full of love and insight...we are spreading the new way of higher doings in real time in altruistic spiritual ways right from this point of forever now : )

Once again, so happy You are here : )

does anyone know who the Huicholes are?

I already know all I need to know about who they are...their artwork is beautiful : )

BTW, BC. Thanks for the picture of you from some Moons ago. I'll keep my saucy comments to myself.

That pic is even funnier still as I freaking
hate sweeping, allergic to housework in general
but I have seen a mouse or two doing da cleaning
on my behalf so i can vouch for their extreme
love of sweeping lol .

4am and still not slept dammit sun must be doing its
thang again . Also noticed waves of sadness coming
over me earlier , maybe related to all the recent crossings
as I sent my crew in to see if anything needed doing.
Sometimes I get full reports other times I don't as I
have no attachment to outcome .i used to be in the centre
of the storms and it would take me a while to recover . These
days I'm more in the hut on the edge of the action but still
can feel the peripheral if it's big . Which kind of indicated that
it's a wave of crossings, interesting that we also had a celebrity
bringing major energetic focus (and food for some ) wondering
of there are dots here to connect.
Regardless of which i will continuing intending for safe and
complete crossings for all concerned .

I think that alcohol is not the problem. The problem is HOW you react with.

...and thanks for saying "...english speaking people..." i though -"the teacher will reprimand me".

My one-year-old grandson loves Pink Floyd....as long as I have any say in the matter he will grow up listening to the crazy diamonds guitar solo.

I dreamt I got picked up by the police last night wondering aimlessly in the streets, foaming and frothing at the mouth and muttering Internet, Internet, Internet....
so that's how I got inter-ned....
Oh, how I missed my Villagers!
Island life in the tropics is not quite what it's made out to be...
truck drivers knocking over telephone poles, then no one comes to fix the broken cables. Currently without landline nor Internet unless I go somewhere where I bum wi-fi.

Alcohol evaporates. Upwards. In doing so it robs vital braincells of fluids.
The healthiest way to be drunk is by standing on one's head.
