Hi, Chris,
I am a seeker, the same as everyone else. The only thing that is 'different' about me is that I'm probably much older than most of the posters here. I feel that I'm 70, going on 32...which, to me, isn't a joke...it's truly the way I feel.
When I first visited this forum, I was skeptical.
I read everything, and then saw what I admire most in this world...an expert who puts his every understanding and effort where his mouth is.
R.G. lives what he believes in, what his unique life experiences have taught him, what his research and reasoning have taught him.
He can't NOT do this...he knows this is his calling...and he has seen since he was a child that it works.
In today's world, you can't hardly get that no more. (To use a cheeky phrase from my childhood.)
I fancy myself as a writer. I understand the written word very well...even contracts...and everything R.G. has written, that I have read, rings true...his true beliefs. I'd bet on him.
So, I began to learn. And to explore.
And, what I learned was this...everything about an individual is interconnected, inside...and very likely outside, as well.
It's like each of us is a pattern of standing dominoes. Give one a push, and a whole string of them tumble, in turn...except that the pattern is very complicated...and there is a timing factor.
I know, you'd like to hear what was 'wrong' with me...and what isn't any more.
In early days on this forum I decided not to tell...to focus only on improvements, especially the ones I have experienced and could reasonably expect others to duplicate.
My greatest achievements have been in clarity of mind and feelings...like stepping into a new world...the old one forgotten.
Yeah, all very airy fairy, I know, but true.
Please excuse me, will you, Chris? A salad is calling... Back soon.
Thanks...I needed that.
I see from your post below that clarity of mind and feelings ARE important to you. I'm pleased to know that. You'll find them as you proceed on your cleansing journey. I think that's a given. But you won't always know exactly where they come from. There are plenty of surprises along the way.
You may even experience some memories from long ago...likely they will come up and pester you for a short while....then vanish.
Your surprises may seem somehow familiar, and yet curious...not what you expected at all. They seem like they just need acknowledging, that nothing needs to be 'done' about them, then they disappear almost as quickly as they came...not to be remembered again...or remembered in a new and more gentle way.
For me, forgiveness, of everyone, is now easy. Things happen, fair or unfair...that's just how things are, everyone really doing the best they can, making mistakes sometimes...just because that was where they were at the time.
I'm a firm believer in the 'inner person'...that person inside who observes all...somehow separate from the actor and doer outside.
And I believe that with every improvement in health, our immune systems rise to meet our current efforts.
I also believe that variety is the spice of life...that it is better to listen to the inner person, especially when the attention lands on something different.
Always try what you really want to...there may be a very good reason to learn about soil micro organisms, for example. But keep it simple, for that's where I find my best answers.
It's now pushing bedtime, and I've learned to appreciate sleep more and more.
My best, Chris. I hope that was enough.
Fledgling
