Seems like nothing, but added up it is work and a lot of that. Go slow, don't overdo it.

I find meditation one of the best medicines, and as far as fear is concerned, I left it behind long ago.I am on a mission to heal and get back here. I miss the blogasphere and the www and will be back as soon as I reasonably can. I will not rush things as I don't want to go through the past two months again.<BR/><BR/>I have been reading your blog and enjoying it as well. I always enjoy what makes me think.<BR/><BR/>...ZZarebahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15036285066771181559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16682364.post-1149028288245000742006-05-30T19:31:00.000-03:002006-05-30T19:31:00.000-03:00Thanks for visiting and for your comments, Darius....Thanks for visiting and for your comments, Darius. <BR/><BR/>It has been my experience that a large number of people's belief systems are not static, but rather in flux as they search for their own proper path, their own personal Journey. They are in fact, searching for the Ultimate Truth.<BR/><BR/>I do not require others to view my interpretation of experiences as correct, I simply want others to think, and it would seem that this article did just that. Nor do I<BR/>suggest that I have the answers for anyone else. In fact I said in this article "We each have our own path to follow, our own truths to rediscover, our own Journey and no one can do it for us. We can help each other by holding a mirror and a light, a mirror so others may see their truths reflected in it and a light to illuminate the path at our feet so me may not stumble on small unseen obstacles."<BR/><BR/>My purpose is to urge people to find their own questions then seek inside themselves for their own answers. As far as proof is concerned, we only have "personal anecdotes". There is a real lack of concrete evidence of much that is in the spiritual realm.<BR/><BR/>I do appreciate your comments as it makes me think...and that is how we learn.<BR/><BR/>...ZZarebahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15036285066771181559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16682364.post-1149020677452004932006-05-30T17:24:00.000-03:002006-05-30T17:24:00.000-03:00I agree with so much of what you say - for example...I agree with so much of what you say - for example, "the greatest obstacle is fear."<BR/><BR/>And probably the best picture of reality is that it's all process. Mountains rise and fall. Our lives are too short to perceive the dynamism of everything.<BR/><BR/>The one thing I see as static: people's religious/philosophical/metaphysical/ belief systems, from which nothing can dissuade them and which they hold as ultimate truth.<BR/><BR/>I honestly find alternative belief systems no more compelling than traditional ones - for example, "Death is simply a rebirth on the other side." I can't see how anyone could know this, or even cite evidence beyond personal anecdotes, which - however powerful and truly life-changing the experiences - by no means require others to view the person's interpretation of their experiences as correct, particularly when there are more plausible interpretations.Dariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09456843848141315800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16682364.post-1148942301891837222006-05-29T19:38:00.000-03:002006-05-29T19:38:00.000-03:00I applaud your courage, proceed with hope.Peace, ...I applaud your courage, proceed with hope.<BR/>Peace, GMgoatmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02317617928368945316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16682364.post-1148896499859949662006-05-29T06:54:00.000-03:002006-05-29T06:54:00.000-03:00I am here looking for some new words Z, hope you a...I am here looking for some new words Z, hope you are well, maybe soon?

So true, and knowing that can be another reason for fear--fear of what we might encounter, fear of not making the right decisions, even fear in our daily existence. All we can do is try our best at whatever we strive to do, because being afraid of what "could" happen only makes it harder to get positive results.<BR/><BR/>Zareba, hang in there, you hear? My prayers for you are still going full force! And remember your words of wisdom to me--don't overdo it and push yourself too much until your physical body has had a chance to recover!Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14097905937552636768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16682364.post-1148449023184004892006-05-24T02:37:00.000-03:002006-05-24T02:37:00.000-03:00Hope you are doing well Zareba.I read your posts w...Hope you are doing well Zareba.<BR/>I read your posts with relish and get richer and richer with every post.raufhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069291890495563749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16682364.post-1148276063227545032006-05-22T02:34:00.000-03:002006-05-22T02:34:00.000-03:00You need the calmness of mind, the washing away of...You need the calmness of mind, the washing away of the fear, so meditate, even informally, every chance you get, in any and all situations, don't fear.<BR/><BR/>This post is the reason for my long comment about the Soul, the soul of the human, and all the friendships within one body, that I put under the Poem, War Chant, Post below. This post is extraordinary, showing appreciation of the reality that is and the purpose and goals of Life itself as we know it. You even talk of the future that can be had in Life, and so I am enlightened by your wisdom and your words of Love of Life. Thanks, I will be back to see you and talk some more. See my blog post on the Soul story, at my Thanks Friends, I Got It, Love, blog. Your visits are always appreciated, even if you are busy, I will be back to see you.
