[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 642710, member: 17461"] I think it is true what they say, that we hear when we are ready. We are always hearing exactly what we need to hear because that is all we can decipher. The other layers remain a mystery. For me, it's a question of releasing defensive barriers. (?) If that is so, then I have to be healed enough to understand why I am hurting myself, why I am limiting my own choice of perspective, before I can open my hand and let go. (Here we go: Before I can open my hand and let go, leave my palm empty and be fine with that. I suppose that is what is meant by the Buddhist concept of the empty bowl, right? No more chasing around to find something that will fill the emptiness at the heart.) COM posted a Richard Rohr on silence in her thread on ~ huh. I can't remember what the thread is titled. Anyway, it was an extraordinary piece. That thread has something like 5,000 views. That is how you will know which one it is. I cherished and found the issue of comparison versus Radical Acceptance an incredibly healing concept. It is still in here, opening me [I]and leaving me empty[/I]. Present. :O) *** How extraordinary that we are all here, pushing and following and teaching and learning and moving through barriers so few of us have even the opportunity to visualize, let alone confront and break through. I loved your Christmas greeting message, too. Merry, merry Christmas to you and to yours, Headlights Mom. We are doing it. We are healing and supporting and cherishing one another here in a way that enables incredible growth and healing. Thank you, most sincerely. [/QUOTE]
