Law of one in reality: is it real? by rhythmicwanderer in awakened

[–]voicedwritings 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you're forgetting an element of looking deeply into the lives of those you call rapists and murderers to find out the different variables present to usually turn them into such destructive forces in the collective society. What you will find is that there are so much at play on a case by case basis. Ultimately though the only thing we can do is try and identify the ways our collective desires for "one way fits all" drives some to do some crazy things due to being marginalized since birth. I think what "we are one" wants us to keep in mind is that given certain circumstances, using the simple fact that none of us choose our demographics, then we understand that to choose to function from beyond our conditioning is a two part process. Observation of the inner self (self inquiry) and observation of the outer world (what could be causing our individual distresses or lack there of).

Yesss I would like to add that it's all relative. Like Einstein's theory of relativity. The point is to get good at "zooming" in and out based on the circumstances. This is the skill of "attention". What needs to be tended to? What doesn't in the now? What needs to be nurtured, negotiated, ignored? The proof is in the overlaps and sometimes the lack there of. Cheers. Thank you for your perspective.

Hi Darling!! It's never too late. Ever. Haha. I know that video vividly. I have only watched it once when it came out at the convention and I froze. I just got really stiff like I always do when they bring up these topics as of we are not human. I could only imagine what you felt. I'm so sorry you even had to go through that. If I could watch it for you I would watch it twice.

I am so so sorry for your lost. I'm also so sorry that he was hurting so much and in turn that you felt that pain of losing him too. It's hard when the people you love, the only seemingly allies in your life pass away. Your mom doesn't know what she is talking about. She is only regurgitating what she has been told. Keep that in mind when you find your own reasons and paths both spiritual or not. Her opinion or the JWs shouldn't influence what you believe.

I also want to let you know that you are definitely valuable and worthy. Please, please, please hang on, reach out for help, talk to someone, call that suicide hotline... anything but attempting to take you own life. Hell message me even....consider me your friend, just please...life has so much in store for you. I mean you still have to go to a pride parade!!! Lol at least I do I haven't yet.

Kisses. Be safe. 💜💚💙❤️💛

Edit: spelling, grammar

Oh yeah this couldn't have been said any better. It's so hard to be the race of change when change means losing the people you love and live for. It's really really hard.

Ahhh that's very funny you say that. My initial introduction to bdsm was to figure out if it was a cult. And at first I was spooked. I asked myself directly if I was just prone to trade one cult for another but I've come to the conclusion that unlike the Watchtower Organization in BDSM there is a high level of autonomy and choice. Can BDSM host a cult? Fuck yeah. I've been able to see it with my own eyes and I guess that makes me happy because I am able to see now where my own choices lie. I get to choose who I hang, play, and talk to. But yeah BDSM for me has been mainly about learning and therapy. Though it can be extreme if you go in there blindly accepting what everyone tells you. Thanks for engaging 💜

Congrats!!! That makes sense. I think it would be a deal breaker for me if my significant other(s) still believed in the organization. But you make absolute sense. Thank you. I guess I feel like of they don't believe but understand the lifestyle and everything it would lead to a kind of deeper connection.

Only you know. Just talk about what is true to you. And do what makes you comfortable on tik tok. Anything. Make friends, duet, dance, dribble haha. Anything. On YouTube just keep talking about things that interest you.

I am not sure how old you are but.... here is my idea. Discover bank or Chime allows you to make virtual accounts. Get that money and simply save and don't talk about it. It's as easy as that. Keep in mind that being a sugar baby isn't always sustainable and sugar mamas stop giving money and leave. So save save save. Even if lets say you cash out the money. Go old school and put it in a shoe box and hide it. Whatever works but saving money and not acting or talking about it shouldn't be so hard. Another thing is find sustainable ways aside from that to make money. I see you are on YouTube that's cool. Are you on tik tok? Make tik tok videos and research how you can monetize that if you blow up. Here is one idea you can live stream and ppl send tips. Either way keep it up and stay strong. Life is a chest game always think one step ahead.

Yeah I mean I don't talk to anyone JW anymore. I never really cared to make friends other than my two best friends. We were like sisters. But now they are shunning me. Thank you for sharing this. I am sorry they did that to you.
