Taking The Risk
PERMISSION TO BE REAL


Most of us are familiar with the idea of keeping it real and have an intuitive sense about what that means. People who keep it real don’t hide behind a mask to keep themselves safe from their fear of how they might be perceived. They don’t present a false self in order to appear more perfect, more powerful, or more independent. People who keep it real present themselves as they truly are, the good parts and the parts most of us would rather hide, sharing their full selves with the people who are lucky enough to know them.

Being real in this way is not an easy thing to do as we live in a culture that often shows us images of physical and material perfection. As a result, we all want to look younger, thinner, wealthier, and more successful. We are rewarded externally when we succeed at this masquerade, but people who are real remind us that, internally, we suffer. Whenever we feel that who we are is not enough and that we need to be bigger, better, or more exciting, we send a message to ourselves that we are not enough. Meanwhile, people who are not trying to be something more than they are walk into a room and bring a feeling of ease, humor, and warmth with them. They acknowledge their wrinkles and laugh at their personal eccentricities without putting themselves down.

People like this inspire us to let go of our own defenses and relax for a moment in the truth of who we really are. In their presence, we feel safe enough to take off our masks and experience the freedom of not hiding behind a barrier. Those of us who were lucky enough to have a parent who was able to keep it real may find it easier to be that way ourselves. The rest of us may have to work a little harder to let go of our pretenses and share the beauty and humor of our real selves. Our reward for taking such a risk is that as we do, we will attract and inspire others, giving them the permission to be real too.

Dear Allie,

Question for you, love... Seems that on Page 9 of whyidontknow's "psychics and lightworkers" thread ~ Ahim-sa is saying *Allie is a child* ~ because you communicate with widk on this thread. Yes, I brought the question up to Ahim-sa, and I take responsibility for that, sorry:

Thread: psychics and lightworkers (Page 9)

I disagree with Ahim-sa ~ you are not a child, too dumb to know or discern. *Physical age has nothing to do with true wisdom.* In my book, your wisdom is very ancient... and spot-on.

I disagree that widk (and me too, now) are "black psyops" ~ widk is a good guy, asking good questions.

Just wish that your peacemaking had worked with all Divinity's expatriated Lightworker crew, but sadly, it has not. The trolls are still out there, doing their Knight's work on her behalf.

Like acolyte suggested that I do, I'm turning on the *Ignore* button now... for my own health and survival. Gotta do this. Love ya, Wasayo

you mean with the ones who you know best??

Dear Allie,

hahaha... "Aries horns" and "Scorpio-stinger", you say?

I'm laughing (sorry) cuz, um... my parents were married for 65 YEARS with that exact combo!!!

Things ALWAYS work out ~ or "come out in the wash" as Lotus Feet says, lol.

And, speaking of Lotus Feet, she sent me this fascinating link today on Dreamspell Free Mayan Astrology. xoxoxoxo Wasayo

Just found this adorable picture called "Panda puppy" on Reddit.com ~ it's a puppy, with markings like a panda. Enjoy! Wasayo

DwD ~

Thank you for posting the picture here as well. See my comment on the LW thread today about the future painting... :)!

WIDK ~

Goodnow! Haha, yes I struggle with the one's I know best, but usually that also means I know how to sooth things over with those people. There are a couple people who know me better than I know them so they know how to push my buttons really hard... I struggle the most with those people, but I learn from them things I could not possibly learn from others. I'm equally blessed by them.

Titles, titles... I'm just looking to know the real you behind whatever names fly your way. I just want you to know that. My heart is open to you and any other :).

The Three I AM ~

=D! HI! Who/What are the three, if I may ask?

W~A ~

As long as the inner peace I feel exists my perception is filled with it. From those eyes, I may only see it expand ;)!

Loving you All,
Hope those of this thread are smiling today,
I know I still am =D!

LOVE to All, ONE!
O!

you might need to do some clearing out in your life i realize a person needs to be unstable before they can be stable but no one in your life should be allowed to push your buttons especially if they are your friends

maybe they are just people you are currently learning a lesson from but if you dont cut the tie and move on you will be learning that lesson your whole life from them it is a very depleating and long process to learn from when you already may know if the techniques were implied

you cant worry about harming others and what your actions may lead to because in the long run it hinders your process and breaks your core being down more then anything and that is the most precious thing in life so look around and stir the feathers instead of letting them stir you

you cant worry about harming others and what your actions may lead to because in the long run it hinders your process and breaks your core being down more then anything and that is the most precious thing in life so look around and stir the feathers instead of letting them stir you

For sure to all that, widk ~ got it ~ finally... thanks. now i hear you. Wasayo

desert rain today

aromatic scent of sage

fills the air

and my heart

with pure joy.


love ya's,

A SIGNIFIER OF SOLITUDE


Feelings of annoyance can interfere with your ability to take pleasure in the time you spend with others today. Traits you once found endearing in loved ones can irritate you, leading you to question whether your relationships are as strong as you imagined them to be.

However, your troubled heart and mind can find solace in solitude as it is likely that you simply need to reconnect with your inner self.

If you have recently spent a great deal of time with family or friends, you may sense that you have lost touch with your own beliefs and opinions. Retreating into willing isolation today can help you get back in touch with the values that make you who you are.

Feeling irritated by the people we love most in the world is often a sign that we need to spend some time alone, away from the distractions of interpersonal relations, to reconnect with ourselves as unique individuals.

Our regard for our loved ones can be intensely strong, and we tend to lose touch with our own values and opinions as we take those of the important people in our lives to heart.

Yet the bonds of friendship and affection do not require us to give up our individuality. Indeed, we are better equipped to love and be loved in return when we regularly take the time to reaffirm our connection to what makes us unique.

The irritation you feel today will gradually diminish and disappear when you retreat from the presence of others and enjoy the wonderful quietude of seclusion.

Good morning, everyone!

I found these gorgeous pictures on Reddit.com ~ "An encounter with a polar bear". It's a visual story of a polar bear and a dog... touching and communicating. Beautiful! Wasayo

Hi, widk,

Got an email from Allie, and she's in the process of moving ~ doesn't have her internet up yet. She'll be around one of these days. Bestest, Wasayo

Hi Abraham,

I know your advice to seek joy to get joy is not from experience. Joy is a byproduct of being. It cannot be accessed by will, it comes as a blessing, as a gift.

Also i can be, do, or have what i want. Success depends on the alignment of my individual wants with those of the universe.

I could make many more comments on your post, to me it is just food for the ego, a dead end.

Hey know it all, direct your comments to Esther Hicks.

Hi AC338, i am guessing you are neither Abraham nor Esther Hicks. This proves my claim already your post was not from personal experience. I am guessing Esther is one with followers.

Following other peoples words is a garantee for disappointment. To find joy one needs to do their own research.

To my knowledge what you posted, it is very cunning and deceitful, it shows understanding of human psychology and abuse of this knowledge to a disempowering agenda. If my post makes your defenses go up, this is your ego. This is not you, you are not the ego.

A question, if we can find joy just by seeking it why is the world then as it is? I do not see many humans who do not seek joy yet the world is a mess.


I googled Esther Hicks, the law of attraction stuff.

A quote: On August 12th, "Money and the Law of Attraction: Learning to Attract Wealth, Health, and Happiness" will be available in stores.

Hi, Darza,

Same old "same old"...

True abundance is a state of being. It's not what you "get" or "have"... but what you "are".

If anyone could get rich or get everything they want by just attracting it to them, all worldwide poverty would be instantly gone. Or is that the Nesara delusion?

heh heh... same old "same old" astral stuff. Loved your "groupthink" post... (wink) Hugs, Wasayo

A Chance To Contribute
DISARMING THE KNOW-IT-ALL


Most of us have encountered a person in our lives who can accurately be referred to as a know-it-all. This person seems to know everything about anything that gets brought up and tends to dominate the conversation.

They don’t take well to being questioned, and they have a hard time ever admitting that they were wrong.

Being around a know-it-all is inevitably tiring because there is no shared energy between the two of you.

Rather, you become an audience member to this person’s need to be the center of attention.

Attention and respect are probably the two things this person most longs for, and at some point in their lives, they learned that knowing it all was the way to get those needs met. Over time, they have become stuck in this pattern, regardless of the fact that it is no longer working. They may feel afraid of the experience of listening, being receptive, or learning something new, because it’s so unfamiliar.

On the one hand, when we see the childlike need underneath the know-it-all’s mask of confidence, we feel compassion for the person, and we may tolerate their one-sided approach to conversation out of a desire not to hurt their feelings.

On the other hand, we may be feeling drained and tempted to avoid this person altogether.

In the middle of these two possible ways of feeling, we may actually like this person and wish for a closer relationship.

If we come from a place of kindness, we might attempt to bridge the gap that this person’s habitual way of relating creates. Simply expressing a desire to be closer may open their heart, and give you a chance to ask for what you need in the relationship—a chance to contribute.

Hi ~430338

I do not know if you have posted on this thread before. I look in only now and then....

Your post of a quote from one of the Hicks books is beautiful and it was a wonderful intention you had to come here and contribute, whatever your motivations to do so may have been. In fact...all contributions to this thread are but individualized expressions of The One.

There are infinite ways of expression.... for All-That-Is, God, is infinite. Seems simple, yet becomes a source of confusion, judgement, unhappiness, and anger for so many.

Food for thought...

Lynn

:Allie:

From me for you
:oannes:
:smileoanne:

WIDK ~

How does your day find you? I know mine finds me smiling =D!

Again, I am truly blessed by those who push my buttons too. They teach me about myself. They teach me about where I have anger and how to love it too. When I love my anger I no longer act out of anger. I calm it and then I can come greater from a place of peace. So, I thank those people. I really, really do =D!

Sometimes I do move on from people, but they don't leave me heart. I was discussing this with a dear friend the other day. We were talking about how we relate in that those who leave our life do not leave our heart. Where friendship no longer is a good route to take with those people, the heart still hopes that they will find a good attitude and be the best they can be. :).

I see myself in another. I treat them as I treat myself. Sometimes I stir my own feathers and sometimes I do to others. Right now I am smiling so, here is a smile :D!

I like that, by the way, "stir the feathers". I think I'd like to do a painting with feathers. Thank you for the inspiration.


Wasayo~Astrolabe ~

I read that and then I do so again and now again. I feel it. I am glad you chose that day to have a way with words ;).


~

Good morning, ~!

I was watching a movie where Abraham speaks the other day. I did not watch all of it, but I did enjoy much of what I did watch. It has 6 episodes I believe. I watched 2 plus a little. There is something about the joy that bursts on Esther's face when the group Abraham speaks through her... something that made me heart tickle just a little more. I have an extreme passion for joy. Chuck, my boyfriend, likes to tease me sometimes for saying it so much as I do like to work it into my daily conversation as much as possible. I am glad for your post. My Mom called to share it with me (she loves the Abraham books). She also has a passion for joy.

Do you have some words to share as well? I would love to see what else, other than Abraham's words, brings joy to you!


Mom ~

Glad to see you expressing yourself here =D! I agree and, as I have said so many times, am blessed that I/you chose you as my Mother in this lifetime. Your passion for Oneness has only ever expanded my heart and allowed me to grow into the person I desire to be in the space that opens up. Thank you, Mom!


Oannes ~

You bless me with this picture :). I thank you with all my heart, you sparkling Rainbow Aura ;D!

Love to you All, ONE!
O!

All, ONE ~

I don't have internet at home anymore and am not getting it again there, but I promise to come on here every time I am near internet. I love your expressions extremely much and the healing that takes place here in all forms. Happily, I enter this thread with, and I am sure you gussed it ;), joy!

Does anyone else try to smile with all their heart at absolute "strangers"? It feels good, doesn't it ;)?

I think that it is good... taking a little time to just step away from electronics especially when they become distractions (as I let them become for myself time and time again). It's just freeing.

LOVE to you All, ONE!
O!

Hi, Lynn!

Great post... very true! Yes indeed, there are "infinite ways of expression".

Personally, I feel the Law of Attraction, as it is being taught, is over simplified... as in, "just desire something and it will come to you".

Real life doesn't work that way (at least for me), and the Law of Attraction is just one *facet* of many spiritual laws.

I agree with your welcoming Abraham... and anyone else... to this beautiful thread!

Blessings and hugs,

Wasayo

Hi, Oannes!

I just LOVE your awesome, big Allie-Butterfly art! It is so amazing, WOW!!! Love, Wasayo

All ~

Hello. Today is a very peaceful day full of a gentle smile here on the home front. Sort of that stillness of air feeling, if you know what I mean. It is the perfect time for the word "pleasant". I love it :)!

How are you? Well? Feeling warm or, perhaps, pleasant like myself?

I'll be on for several hours in case any of you are around. Wherever you are, feel joy :)!

Wasayo~Astrolabe ~

Thank you for welcoming my Mom so brightly! I will let her know that you have done so in case she has yet to see it.

Yes, isn't that butterly filled to the top with kindness? I love it!

LOVE to you All, ONE!
O!

Hello all,
Just letting you know I still like this thread, reading it all and learning. Not have much computertime at the moment. Working on solarpower and there not much sun at the moment.
But when I have power, I read here and enjoy the love of the thread. Thanks!

allie-baba & all...
