Posted by Angela on 11/23/2004, 12:55 am, in reply to "Re: This is where I'm at " I'll share some of what I did with loneliness, this was recognising that it wasn't a new feeling, it was a feeling I was familiar with, so I took it back to being a child, and found old suppressed feelings of rejection still inside me to do with parental relationship. Having identified that, sat with it, acknowledged it and 'oh thats what/where it started, somehow I felt easier, sort of OK I acknowledge that by sharing this I am finding the right people here to relate to and in doing so feel a welcome warmth, relief, camarderie that has probably been waiting to surface a long long time. Thank you Seth, thank you cheryl, I am heartened that we are together in sharing our feelings /experiences of aloneness and that has gone a long way to reducing it . As I write this I 'm aware how much I used to hide away from sharing such feelings, so to do so now is a step forward in 'owning' self, owning the feelings releasing the old feelings and experiencing a new closeness. Thank you and thank you John for setting this bulletin area up

Thank you seth, thank you, I feel tears of gratitude and warmth reading your reply. So much relief.- !!!! Relief because intellectually knowing others experience similar things is different from the experience , like now, a response that echoes through time and space. Yeah the reason I am here Seth is someways very similar. Is this resonance of energies working to find a solution........!? A llive experience of it .

: I must say It's nice to hear you two
: touching on the lonely factor that
: you've experienced and still do. I
: can't even put words to properly
: express my experience with it.
: I would LOVE to experience
: relationships close in spirit,
: consciousness, and physical distance.
: Angela you have it right when you say
: its an extremely challenging path.
: One I don't really remember taking
: on, but it's who I am, so here I am.
: The reason I ended up here at this
: message board a little over a week
: ago, was to hopefully find others I
: could speak to without being looked
: at cross eyed...
: Yeah this whole subject of loneliness
: or alienation brings up so much in me
: that I don't even know where to start
: or end with it. I love hearing you

: --Thanks cheryl, Seth, yea the
: stillness is beautiful . The
: catharsis before realisation is both
: a welcome release of suppression, and
: often so hard, sometimes feel worn
: with it, alot of processing has been
: done,and yes is v.v. helpful .
: Sharing I'm finding interesting,
: currently love to feel the
: compatibility of others who are
: walking their walk, releasing
: previous negative absorptions
: /influences /perceptions...........
: Integrating feelings. Much as I know
: there are many out there doing /
: going thru similar emotional
: clearings, this discussion board is a
: wonderful opportunity to unite and
: send good energy to each other. How
: many people around you are you able
: to share the process with, or are
: they scattered globally ? My
: experience to date is that others
: like yourselves, are far away ( ie in
: distance though close in spirit, ) I
: wonder how it would be to be in touch
: with people close in spirit and
: distance.........

: Hi, sitting with a feeling does help
: it dissipate. Recogntion of a feeling
: + whats under that '? also helps
: release any progressive link ie There
: are often a series of feelings the
: top one often the tip of the i
: ceberg. Identification of a feeling
: and linking back , helps healing, as
: well as comprehension. Often relief,
: because now something healthy can
: take its place, sometimes a
: transitionary phase is needed to
: amalgmate the learning and to
: recover, This process of releasing
: suppressed feelings is also an
: extremely challenging path to take
: and anyone out there doing this know
: that there are others on similar
: paths. This is often a feelingly
: lonely route and reaching out to
: others spiritually I find of great
: benefit. thank you for sharing how
: you feel. This is a blessing.

: Ok, this is where I'm at with these
: things we call emotions, or blocks.
: You have to surrender to them, and
: when I say that I'm saying just feel
: them... accept them and just feel
: them. Don't think about them, and
: don't think about other things or
: even what the cause of the emotion
: might be. Just embrace it and be
: present with it. Oh and a trap I
: have fallen into in the past, and
: probably still do is that I would
: have a goal to be happy or over my so
: called downfalls, you have to let go
: of that to! Just accept them and be
: with them, and see how long the pain
: lasts.
: To be at peace in the moment is true
: fulfillment I know because I've been
: there. The problem is just staying
: their.
: Well that's where I'm at with all
: this. I would love to here of any
: insights you may have as to where you
: are.
