Oddly, thats often the response of people when they are told they are not clear -- or not being clearly understood. Just repeat the same obtuse thing -- just LOUDER. Repeat something often enough and almost anything can start to sound true (to some). > It's not a matter of *my* choice -- it's the particle's choice, > always, to imagine that it's not me, to explore its denial of me and > of what IS, and consequently to suffer, for just as long and as > intensely as it wishes :-) So as Peg Leg says, "I could fulfill a desire to end the war in Iraq, but its Iraq's fault for not surrendering to "MahaME"."

What is can "could" always be more divine, more and expression of heaven. if you or it don't like that, then sure, leave it as it is. But if vision of what could be has not been snuffed out within you, then seeing what could and helpingto enable that change is a good thing, IMO. Wallowing in yesterdays news (now is what was conceived yesterday) is not a huge virtue, IMCO, unless you want to gloriify something then worship it.

And if you want to continue to talk past me, not to me, I am certainly not saying you should change. Its your call. I said nothing about shoulds -- but you apparently saw "shoulds" in what I wrote. Projection could be an explanation. But if my words are a good catalyst for you to sermonize on other things, wonderful. Thats your creative urge to change the topic and unload whats on your mind. Thats always an option. > > Something out there SHOULD be the same: > Is that really true? > Are we really sure that's true? > How does it feel to think they "should" be the same? > How would we feel without that thought? > Can we see any stress-free reason to keep that thought? > Are the turn-arounds on the thought equally true or truer -- are > those detested qualities "out there" really inside ourselves? > Anyone can react against the evil out there and act to change it, and > most do.

That's when we truly end the war. I say its our resistance to use our divinely granted and enabled spark of creativity and insight, inertia, stagnation in the present, that restrict the application of our skills to remove blockages to things moving towards greater fields of happiness. Now is one level of happiness. Feel free to worship and be stuck in that. Out there is a greater field of happiness -- and if its within my power to enable it, I will use apply my divine right to reflect the virtues of of that creator / divinity. I don't say everyone and everything should be happier, whole and radiating creativity and love. I am saying, they Could be. And to the extent I can enable that, that is my nature. why restrict nature? > Right action continues, as always.

If so, I see what could be -- you enjoying a happiuer, fresher, less restrictive and conditioned view of things. THAT Could be. Its you that appears to be saying it shouldn't be -- by staying stuck in the quicksand of what has already happened. >
