I feel frightened tonight and can't sleep to be quite honest. I am not sure why. I am praying and I am going to put on some soft instrumental harp music.

Completely agree with this Gerrerd. Honesty is way up top on my people priority list. Otherwise what is the point? I can be brutally honest but sometimes hold back with those I know do not value honesty the way I do. But always coming from a place of love so don’t worry about it so much anymore. You are right, it really IS that simple. 👍💛

Twinklystar, do you see how Life can surprise us when we least expect it?

What's meant to be will happen. I felt bad in that i enouraged you to go with

the first house but then could see all the issues it was going to cost you...

As you felt defeated, I blamed myself for encouraging you. And so I sat back,

to see when and what would happen and it did. The moon having an effect, I don't

know or just plain Fate that you were meant to have that house by the park.

Everything falls into place in it's own time. Breathe and know the time may be now :) xx

Good Luck

Dear gerrerd, I've always worn my heart on my sleeve.

To love is to live

Be honest but never hurt anyone. :) xx

Authenticity versus attachment

I believe in something strongly, I know there are people who believe like I do, but the people who believe something else, who are strongly steadfast, in their belief, they being the ruling 'accepted' belief, completely blind to others who believe against them, THEY MUST BE RIGHT!🙄 I cannot bring out my beliefs, which I have had for over forty years, if I do I am physically tormented, that really hurts! Physically and mentally!

Hi Adlon57, know what you mean( I believe you are from Nornirn like myself?). I would personally bang all politicians’heads together, can’t abide their entrenched beliefs… I love N.Ireland as my home country but the hot-headed deluded maniacs in power have a lot to answer for.

Actually no I am a agnostic, which in Norn Irelan was a real taboo, you were meant to be one religion or the other, I decided neither over forty years ago, and have over the years become entrenched in my belief. One religion has got that many belief offshoots, especially for political gain I believe it loses more and more credibility but that's Norn Irelan for ye?🙄🙃🤫🥱

I think 90% of the population agrees with that, the 10% are causing it!

Yes, wouldn’t it be great if all the fanatics could be sent to Rwanda(sp.?) and leave the 90% to get on with their lives in peace…

In speaking to others, truth should be wrapped in kindness, as we all have vulnerabilities.

Absolutely, you are so right. Being highly sensitive myself I do not find it difficult to empathise with others but all too often I am clumsy and words come out wrong, I am always putting my foot in it…

I like the phrase "Truth is easier to keep track of than lies" But many truths can not withstand the light of day. We, adults, have to strategically plan what truths have to be omitted or replaced with fabrications to avoid offending, insulting or hurting other people. "I would rather not sit for dinner with your father, He is an insulting, pretentious, arrogant, snob, who thinks he can buy everyone's love" for example is something I held back for over 25 years. Then when I finally expressed how uncomfortably miserable he made me feel, I was the one who got flogged. It's a minefield out there even with our more trusted allies and loved ones, sometimes a lie is the only thing that will keep the peace.
