The candle of love, contentment, peace is so dark inside that it's almost impossible to see it. Sometimes, something as simple(and courageous) as a hug, a chat, a smile or the words " I care about what you think" can be an entrance into a new world for someone. Love, caring, consideration, concern does work. |

It was up this alley in ways. Diana, one of the reasons "why " I said to start in your own home, is not just because the bible says something simliar also..but that I understand that reincarnation...or one could say the soul's taveling onward in it's path of growth...is that it comes back in another form into or around the same family as before...as an child. Even the bible says it takes four times before one's soul moves into another area of soul growth...and leaves the original family core it was living with.. As your circumstances from the past are what you are now, and your making now what you will be in the future...in the way of the growth lessons needed, we travel on as if going educationall higher each time per lesson., though not in being graded like schools do...anything we don't learn..we simply repeat it until we do learn. You people , like society as an whole today....also are confusing negativity type reactions with people whom refuse "fake" love also. You can not harm another and then softly say to them that you "care" about them, it just don't work. Yet I know professionals have taught their employees to do just that. We are trained to do it these days. We are trained to smooth things over in the most "loving way" in being unjust in ways to others. I will site an example to you. We had an man that had pure sheep skin slippers at work, they were never to be sent my laundry to be taken care of as the family took care of them,,some nurse's aide put them in the laundry (I assume by mistake) and of course they were washed with the "bulk" clothing. They shrank and were for the most part ruined. I accepted it was our fault because of the nurse's aide not taking them out and handling them as was expected. I felt we should of replaced them to the family without another word about it, as he paid huge huge amounts of monthly fee's just to be there as an private patient. But the so called "consutlants" to our facilty...said "NO"...admit your guilt and sorrow "nicely" but make no amends toward the facilty paying for the replacement slippers. Ask the family to replace them with something "washable"..rather then an "personnal" desire item. Then you know what they did, they sent in an medical "expert" to talk "lovingly" to this man and his family and this "expert" was taught "hypnotics" by "suggestion" ...and he talked to them so that they didnt' want to replace the slippers, and would do as was asked in geting washable ones. I asked our admisntartor at the time what this was all about..she told me they are "trying out" the medical field of the future...in where they hope by "hypnotic sugggestion", they can tell patients they feel no pain, they are not angry..etc. As it turned out they ended up walking out of the place and building another and selling it the old facility...when I left they closed down my department and sent all the clothes out to be done. They called me in one day and said they wanted to re-model my area, I had been dilgent in my budget for eyars on end and they felt to improve the laundry.. and what would I like in it an how in arrangement, and then used it in the new facilty...and still last I went over was mis-using it out of the lack of knowledge of the profession in general I think. As to the man up with the slippers, he left our place, went to where our old administrator went and got new sheep skin slippers in the end...like he wanted. At last I've heard the facilty has now changed hands at least three times or better.... since I worked there. But this is the kind of an "loving" response that just don't "work" and people should not judge others as "negative" because the expression of "truth" is being thwarted these days in the enhancement and profiterring done by others. I have as yet to NOT find the illicit personailty not hiding behind an "veil" of love many times. As God says...I see right through it all....try again please. The real truth and "Love" harms no one, its not selfish, its not unkind, it is sharing, but not manipulative, it gives..as it borrows, its has no strings attached, it is divine, it shows mercy, it shows responsibilty,it produces progress and growth that is real...not simply bought for the good looks of it momentarily...to obtain its current wants. Real love is enduring, forgiviing, gives others freedom. It gives satisfaction beyond just an "Laugh" to one's life. It picks you up when you cry, it puts you in the right path. Its prescence is "known" even when its unspoken. It endorses an "respect" that is untarnished. It is rare....more prescious then any jewels and yet lives and is based upon reality. One of the closest ways to see it is at times little children with an little "Pet"..perhaps an puppy or kitten....though I've seen sometimes late at night with an parent..getting rocked to sleep. There is an total "trust" there...between two souls that is just "open" with love flowing in the interaction between them. You can see this when it present. It is not hidden. I have an picture of my son and myself shortly after he was born "receiving" love from me, and I got an picture the other day of my son doing likewise with his daughter...as he was holding her in his arms as they took thier picture together.. the "escense" was there. So there..my opinion of "Love". |
