    Sometimes I think I should spend a bit more time rethinking the past, but for me it equals regression.
    Some don’t want to dig up the past because it’s too painful. Others say what’s done is done, leave the past in the past.

    All pain, i.e., physical, mental, emotional and/or sexual abuse gets locked in the psyche and the cellular and muscle memory. These memories hidden or otherwise are overlays that prevent one from experiencing who they are in Truth.

    Fear of the unknown, fear of being out of control, and denial reinforces this cycle of dis-ease. It takes courage to unearth the trauma and worth the risk. Each cathartic release brings clarity and freedom. And perhaps, one discovers knowledge of innate strength and wisdom of how their spirit could never be broken.

    Violet, that was beautiful. Cripey. Thank you for sharing such a deep part of yourself. RunningDeer offers such wisdom for you. As it always happens, these words are as meaningful and timely for me as you might find them. I opened a heart-door yesterday to take a peek and found something painful. I closed the door right away because I didn't think I could tackle that at the moment. I will have to. I know.

    Here's to healing, Village. Cleaning up old messes to start anew. In each Here and Now. What more important work exists, I ask. Clean up our little messes, and that helps clean out the attic. Who knows how far we reach when we do that

    Yes, that is wise advice. Thank you, Paula. Every now and then I do take small peeks, like 1inMany does

    Well, here's to another weekend. Let's start with a hearty afternoon coffee, you're all invited :



    (Just pretend the sun is real)



    And some Earl Grey for the anti-coffics:



    And last but not least, it's an exercise Week of Niceness (to be continued long after that of course) (in my Human Chain thread), so don't forget to do something extra nice (Christmas presents don't count )!

    Families have a tendency to single out a culprit, who then becomes a scapegoat for everything that is wrong.
    The truth is that families form a unit with different energies contributing to the big picture.

    So you became upset because of a report from M. At first glance perfectly understandable.
    But has it occurred to you that perhaps she didn't give you the full background, nor the larger context?
    That she knows how to press your buttons, and revels in feeding the drama?
    That perhaps the thing was said in jest?
    That most kids get to hear those types of threats from older guys, including their dads, and after a while forget all about it, and carry on with life?

    Just a few questions to help rise above it. My philosophy is that nothing is ever as good, nor as bad, as it appears.

    Ulli, this whatshisname, as J calls him, is a psycho, a monster, a meth head and viscious. He has no business being with children. I have seen first hand the reaction of this child to just hearing this man's voice, and it was the reaction of a child who has been abused. Your words are wise, but unfortunately less than applicable in this particular situation.

    Whether it was said in jest, or not, at six years old, to be told that by someone who has beaten the sh!t out of you more than once, it isn't anything but psychological trauma.

    Sorry, this here and now, for me atm, is not all love and light and fluffy stuff. You know how I will often reveal truth in a statement that couldn't really be taken seriously, the statement I made to her on the previous page was just skirting the line of serious and no joke at all. The greater part of the tragedy is that her daughter K allows this to go on right under her nose. I would say, someone will have to really get hurt befor she wises up and gets rid of the guy, but we are beyond that and now have a cycle of bad behavior on the part of whatshisname and his manipulation of K being pretty deep at this point. Someone has already gotten hurt over and over again, and It's the most frustrating thing in the world when the One person who could, and should, do something about it just effin won't. For example, the reason she moved out of her apartment was to get away from him, after he tried to strangle her. What is little one supposed to think, seeing that, and having been beaten by him before, when the same person (I use the term loosely) threatens to set him on fire in his sleep?

    This is hard and harsh, un_sugar coated reality. I realize it isn't fitting for the tone of the thread, and might well be the first time my own posts were removed from these environs. I won't hold it against anyone if I get reported. I do wish to close, there is no anger in me, but there is a sense of justice that has not been met, and I am personally involved with many of the characters in the epic of 1inmany. Forgive me for being so pointed.

    Ok, Lama, point taken. We have to maneuver between the principles of inclusiveness and absolute duality, and it is no easy path.
    Just yesterday I was chatting with my husband about how kids are developing whose mother was on hard drugs during their pregnancy, if he had any data on that.
    So equally I'm asking now, how would Little One fare from here on? How would he integrate those extreme poles of influence in the future? He will have to choose one day based on his perceptions of right and wrong.
    Meanwhile whatshisname needs a good dose of justice, and perhaps get locked away in a place where he can't access any of those drugs.
    Better have him get locked away than an innocent person who reached their limit, like One.

    Nothing written here will ever be removed, unless the author wants it out of the way.
    Some things have to be addressed. Hey, maybe he will meet his Waterloo, living at Mike's now.
    And has Mike been informed about that threat?

    Better have him get locked away than an innocent person who reached their limit, like One.
    If whatshisname gets locked away, it will most probably be by the doing of a third party. Little One will do everything to protect his mother and that may very well include covering for whatshisname, even if it turns out in his very bad disadvantage.

    If left like this the prospects aren't hopeful even if nothing (physically) bad happens to the child. Right and wrong will be near to impossible to distinguish with such history. If this kid is the family's scapegoat and this is the result, then it has everything in the making to become society's next outkast. And I don't even want to go to into the self-destructive part. I agree with Purple, there's no fluffy here. Immediate action required. Help this kid and be careful because when things climax into this direction, evil people get even more evil and violent and dangerous.

    May this family be protected throughout this and after that.

    Good morning villagers and new villagers,

    Rain here and now maybe turning to snow on the mountain....
    It's time for a good hot fire, good hot mug of tea and good hot vegetable soup....




    Love and big gentle bears hugs to everyone

    Hi dear ones,
    being a member for 6 weeks now, sitting here in my city in Central Europe, every time I open the website or I'm thinking of Avalon I feel an energy field of enormous intensity here in my room. In this short time I experienced the maurice / krissy thread, the vilcabamba thread, the very controversary Auschwitz thread, the discussions about 'censorship' and the mod's tasks, Bill's answer to the 'scientology questions', yesterday I heard the cry from truth and now One and PL allow me to participate in this heartbreaking family story.

    By now I just feel able to contribute pictures, music, videos and short messages of love and compassion. For the rest, I'm reading, reading, reading and my dictionary is constantly at hand.

    Your feathers, Deer, I'm aware of them generating this strong pulsating field of supporting, loving and healing power, creating a protecting and sheltering space for mother and child and radiating from the hearts of all, who are linked in. So am I. What a blessing for everybody to share this.

    Ethan, what a joy, that you realized, you are loved deeply.
