    Quote What if I am "some"?
    ...well then I wanna hear all about it. Whether you are "some" or "not some", I'm curious to hear what anyone who has a belief ("knows"??) either way--what makes them think that?

    I, for one, have nothing but others' experiences to decide from...and it is pretty limited the amount of those I've found...so am dying to hear from anyone willing to share theirs...


    ***sorry flash, that's incomprehendable to english speakers, I'm sure, so what I meant was:

    I'm interested to know WHY you think of yourself as "some"...as well as hearing WHY from those who do not.

    ***thanks for that carmody!!
    I was taking Carmody's words and meant: what if I am "some saying the opposite" to his previous sentence : "After all, you signed on for it". So what if I believe I did not sign on for it, or worst, what if I did not sign on for it but was sent for the experience? Therefore, what if I am "some" from the previous sentences.

    And I reverted to supersized French fries.

    I hope it is clearer that way.

    Now for you question, why you think of yourself as "some" and why the opposite from those who do not? My comment was rhetorical because I do have the same questions in mind and no real answer.

    Now my feeling, i do not even know if it is a belief, cause it feels more like a feeling. I do feel like I chose for a definite purpose I do not remember (amnesia). But, even once the choice made, the modalities in which one enters into the 3D lesson or purpose are not always chosen, in fact, there is little choice. To me, choice may have been made in between now and the last incarnation, or aons ago, depending on the soul and its purpose.

    I do wonder often if my choice was wrong, because this is not a gift here, even if it could have been originally. This is when I tell myself "all is right" and then wonder if this is reality or a real created belief to alleviate the situation.

    However, I also feel that some of us have been thrown down here with not much choice. They needed the lesson and happy or not, there you go. Universe provides. Jail time, try to get the "go out of jail" card by playing within the universal laws.

    Sometimes, I do wonder if this, being thrown down here without a choice, did not happened to me and if I am not delusioned by feeling that I chose.

    I wish to hear from others as well.

    Now I also need to go to work to put the French fries on the table
    Michael newton talks about that. Maybe a young 'problem' dimensional, those who are disturbing the peacefulness in the local dimensional area.

    That the local leaders or whomever, approach them and say, "Hey, kid, yeah you, little Mr/Ms piss and vinegar, you there, ADD kid....I got this thing here you might want to look at.... check out this cool place in this pamphlet! Would you like to go there?

    "OK, Here's your bus ticket, $50, and a roll of toilet paper. Off you go now! bye!"

    Yells at retreating bus, "Don't spend it all on dope!" (shakes head, walks away)

    I wonder too...if there was a choice? I would like to remember/know tht i made a choice. I really would rather it not b a situation tht so and so said so and i just take this information verbatim---which ironically this word sounds like ver- bait- him..haha

    Quote Should it be that easy, or are we learning to understand what it is like to have difficulties in these areas?
    My take is: if it were that easy, I wouldn't be here. I'd be back at the Source watching the reruns on dimensional TV, pining for the good old days of trials and tribulations I could go and bust up. Ya, I'm programmed for reality busting. This has been one of the toughest assignments I've ever taken on. That's why I got me a really good Avatar for this time around - healthy, strong, intelligent, sensitive and super-connected to Source. Without that I'd have no chance. Sheesh, as it is I almost gave up a while back...

    Thanks carmody
    Been using more and more
    Crystals of late , they were never really my
    thing but suddenly they are
    So fascinating reading the mechanisms at play
    Also reading a book of Edgar caycee on color and
    stones , some very interesting concepts he speaks of
    One being that color is the spiritualisarion of tone and sounds
    Very very thought provoking

    Never been much for channeled material myself
    I like to go direct and get my own guidance
    But I am fascinated by caycees life and work right
    now so I guess there are things in it for me to know

    It doesn't feel like any of this is okay.

    Which over the last few months have been considerable in number and

    Could it be that in the past there was no choice, but from here on there will be?
    That it's true that humanity is in the transition between adolescence and maturity,
    and therefore is given the keys to greater mobility?

    All that is needed is that the individual accepts personal responsibility for all their deeds.
    Become masters of their destiny and choose where they WISH to be.
    Make plans, work diligently towards them,
    and quit all thoughts of victimhood.

    Wow, there are 2400 people on Avalon right now, 200 Avalonian's and over 2000 guests, ten times more guests than regulars. 400 of them are on jagman's thread about "Peter the Roman". I just find this interesting and somewhat telling.

    If you google "Peter the Roman", Avalon forum comes up as the number 6 choice on the front page.

    The ratio is nearly always ten to one...mostly 150 to 1500.... But given the cold weather in the US, plus the resignation of the
    Pope...an increase like that would be normal I suppose.

    For the Astro buffs, another way of looking at aspects.

    "How Do I Use The Declination Graph?

    The Declination Graph is another way of looking at aspects. To use this graph, just find the planet(s) you are interested in and look at their positions in the graph.

    When you see planets that are at the same degree (either up or down), they are said to be Parallel. If they are at the same degree but one above and the other below the middle line (celestial equator), that is called a Contra Parallel.

    These aspects are similar to the conjunction and the opposition aspect.

    Parallels exist when there is a conjunction. The meaning will be determined by the planets involved and the houses and signs that they are in. But when two planets are conjunct and parallel, that means they share the same celestial latitude as well as degree.

    Contra-Parallel exist when there is an opposition; like the Parallel, it will depend on the planets and their house positions. When two planets are opposed and parallel, that means they share the same celestial latitude, as well as opposing degrees.

    There is a special time when the planet is at Zero. This is when they are neither up or down from the celestial equator (the middle line in the graph). This is a time when the planet is going to be strong and the principles of that planet will be emphasized. "

    Had some more thoughts on the topic of whether we choose before coming here....and how much to remember...

    If life is this eternal journey then what point is there in retaining all memories? It just can't be computed.
    Also, if intuition is another factor that needs developing, what point is there in holding all those memories?
    As it is...I remember far too much crap from this life, most of which has no bearing on my present condition.
    Creating wellness, happiness, beauty...within one's scope...those are the things that matter to me.
    Being of service as the need arises...denouncing corruption, developing virtues, assisting and educating...
    Those are the things that matter to me...and the next generation can have some foundations laid by ours
    that they can then build upon.

    Rocky on his rounds again? I wonder
    Experiencing pain and suffering is the gateway to joy and happiness.
    It's chronic pain that prevents the gateway opening.

    wow.. i have to research this one,
    never heard of these stones before.

    "South of central Romania these stone formations with alien features lie dormant, until it begins to rain. As soon as the last drops of water fall, they resume their process of multiplication. Small oval or round blain-like forms appear on the upper crusts of the previous year stones."


    Which makes you wonder, if its somehow possible to grow stone structures,
    buidings, etc.. if the stones are watered the right way, etc.
    Fascinating idea, organic housing.

    Quote Had some more thoughts on the topic of whether we choose before coming here....and how much to remember...

    If life is this eternal journey then what point is there in retaining all memories? It just can't be computed.
    Also, if intuition is another factor that needs developing, what point is there in holding all those memories?
    As it is...I remember far too much crap from this life, most of which has no bearing on my present condition.
    Creating wellness, happiness, beauty...within one's scope...those are the things that matter to me.
    Being of service as the need arises...denouncing corruption, developing virtues, assisting and educating...
    Those are the things that matter to me...and the next generation can have some foundations laid by ours
    that they can then build upon.
    This is some chunky meat to chew on and challenging to communicate...have not had much luck on here (forum) getting others involved in a somewht different angle of discussion in this arena...

    The challenges come from many of us having different SET format/idea of wht and who we are...how we came to be...
    Whatever our "ideas" are they have been cultivated/groomed for most of our lives making it challenging to ERASE all notions /frameworks of everything weve been told, taught of what we SHOULD think we are NEVER having this knowing ON OUR VERY OWN--exclusively Total recall not of memories persay, but of self, the being behind the shows...

    Ok whew! Now
    Quote If life is this eternal journey then what point is there in retaining all memories? It just can't be computed
    When u state this..its stating wht some may believe or not about our existence...wht some of us are told..but do we "know" this on our own without it having been told, this is how u should see yourself?...

    Quote Also, if intuition is another factor that needs developing, what point is there in holding all those memories?
    When i discuss this subject, i am looking at this from an all inclusive existence where we are aware of the "blueprint" our TRAJECTORY...now someone will say you numbnut your not supposed to know "its all apart of the plan" ---been told this many times.

    Well i dont "know" this for certain and have no memory tht this is so? So in these moments all im searching for is everything and anything to be KNOWN by self...remembered by self exclusively. Doing this in no way takes away from experiencing beauty, creating, living in the moment, being an observer

    My perspective comes from being an artist, designing creations tht come to life after being conceived in the mind over time first. The more you practice envisioning your creation the more precise/ detailed it can become. So where am i going with this?

    We come into this existence with no blueprint..plan..vision of what we are creating. Wandering along blind, working for someone else, live in a box, work in a box then die in a box. Apparently we have been doing this for eons as well as QUESTIONING human existence? I suppose im getting tired of the.."its meant to be this way" realizing all in all im being TOLD everything i should think feel know as well as ALL OF US.

    Quote and the next generation can have some foundations laid by ours
    that they can then build upon.
    It is my vision tht any next generation creates there own foundations tht build paradise on earth

    *** I really appreciate your feedback here*** I do not want to come of as "this is the way it is" i am truly trying to get feedback from different angles in regards to this subject
    We X Billions want to change the world and it appears we are......

    I would never want to impose any "this is the way it is" either.
    Just quietly musing here and if anyone else wants to run with this ball, they are welcome.
    Everyone comes here (this life, this planet) with different capacities.
    So self knowledge to me is paramount. Knowing one's talents as well as limitations.
    No illusions, nor hang-ups.
    Each time I changed country or culture I had to get myself reoriented....
    and leave old habits, customs and beliefs behind.
    Start from scratch- language, currency, traffic rules.
    Each decade of life held new challenges as well...more uprooting there.
    Memories interfere, as they carry the possibility of prejudice.
    So now it's all mostly a blur, unless I allow myself to reminis, as a self indulgence, sortof.

    Hey, just heard about a study from the University of Leeds...green tea and red wine prevent
    Alzheimer's.
    Those are the main concerns at my age...as well as
    'did I do all I could about beating that drum re system change?'
    Because the one thing I did learn quite a bit about is community development...
    And how to balance the need for equal rights with the need for hierarchical structures, based on merit,
    not blood lines nor purchasing power.
