This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 04, 2008:
to answer this question requires some sort of consensus as to what exactly it means to say a person is "negative"
i do not proscribe to the notion that people are bad. original sin is a really big lie, intended to control and manipulate the masses into accepting governance (control) by the ruling elite. Plato ... (you've heard all this before if you've read much of anything i write).
calling a person negative implies that some people are "postitive" and somehow superior. i do not believe some people are better than others. we are all human, we all make mistakes.
i shall attempt to answer the question as i believe it was intended to reflect the majority opinion that it is good to be happy and somehow wrong to not be happy, that some people are better than others, which is an idea i find utterly revolting for all the reasons outlined above, and more:
that all just depends. sometimes i agree with them, and we vent our frustrations together. it's very cathartic. sometimes i just laugh at them, that prevents me from getting upset and/or my feelings hurt. sometimes i just ignore them.
usually i'll argue with them, seeing as how an argumentative mood is what most folks call "negative" behavior (ah, confusion between subject and object again, we see...). it all depends on who they are and what they are saying.
i do not invalidate their feelings by calling them "negative" and telling them their feelings are bad or wrong. i do not try to cheer them up. i do not feed the codependent need for attention if that is what i perceive they are after. i do most often sympathize with them, try to turn the conversation into a rational discussion rather than an emotional response. once you get your emotions out of the way, then you can talk about the things bothering you. un-attach. let it be. you know. but spouting off happy sappy guru-talk bullshit lies and over-repeated meaningless platitudes is totally not my style.

Cool
It's all energy, naturally procured, there is no negative energy, only induced, if you think of humanity like power, which is where the real power is in the core of every being that lives like a magic we fail to understand, innate beauty supreme I share this dream, a kinder word not spoke, alone, together in time precious pearls that shine, sharing freedom and love, shaped as a dove, I care not for acquisition about another in fear, there are no ears so tuned that receive this share, to give freely of this sun and limit this shame inflicted pain…are we parasites or what…Giving and receiving…explore and shine!

I agree, they just don't see it so well…something to do with controlling manipulation of a selfish kind, where value is based on illusions instead of credible accountability to the identity of individual…people are sold like dog food into prison camps and made to conform to activity that is well below their capability, because a few pricks think they own shares in everyone's friggin life, the whole thing is a con, but, while people buy into it, means objective activity is globally wasted far more than oil guzzling giants, people are not bad, the controlling influences are, spoon feeding sharks making the most of a playboy paradise they designated their own…stupid jerks there only here five minutes and they have brain's like moths…I'm saving up for one of those blue light's and a shotgun…you know!

Total oppression of human resources to fullfill inhuman needs and create vast division where there is supposed to be harmony, they do it in the inequality of education, solvent green wasn't just a film it's a way of life in the freak fair and fate of power control corruption…it's the government and legal system who peddle the real murders, rapist and peadophiles…it's a buisness called oppression and some people just live of it…it's nothing to do with fate or karma…it's more like a kick in the face at birth, your camp, my camp…ever seen a cival war…do you know how to make one…I do…similar to world wars just words and alot of bull shit and money tobe made at human expence…it's all part of superior, like a disease eating into everything you think you understand, the only intelligence iscounter intelligence against civilized behavior…wouldn't want to weaken a ready supply of animals…should the need arise to use them like pawns, it's a big chess board, with to many King's and Queens playing show dogs for the sick puppies…I love a good show…human are a disease…sorry
“un-attach. let it be.”
I like it..thanks…
thanks, CG :-)
Pan, please don't apologize. i love what you have written here. seems you get me, what i'm trying to say. most folks don't, you know. i do believe the notion of original sin, that humans are bad and need to be saved, rescued from themselves, i do believe that idea has been responsible for more damage to the human species than anything else. unless maybe the related idea that some humans are superior than others, better in some way or another. both ideas have seeped into everything, everywhere, it's insidious. that's what it is. and people who believe those lies, they get mighty angry if you question their authority (because, you know, in such a divided world as ours, it's all about who is in control).
all that stuff is connected. the bullshit piles up, obscuring the truth, and the people are terrified to start shovelling. they might get some on them. what would the neighbors think?
Yeah, the neighbours are out there, did you ever meet Frank in Blue Velvet, hey neighbour lets go for a ride…I love neighbours, just wish they could learn to love themselves for something more productive than Wasterville. It's all potential that needs converting into positive energy i.e. human not animal energy…if they achieved conversion, the Frank's would stand out like a sore thumb.
Conversion starts early in development with equality, without equality you have division and an expensive problem instead of a rich resource base…behaviour breeds behaviour, generationally it's time for change, the lack of, is the only negative aspect of social cohesion since inequality sticks like glue…it's not them and us, just us, a different aspect of us that is all cause and effect.
indeed, they would, Pan… silly Franks :)
listen, m'dear S., sorry I missed phoning you this morning, I was up at four so have no excuse but got distracted since in ten different ways and only just remembered now - and need to leave for a bleargh work meeting soon, worse luck, and have too many things to do now. would tomorrow morning work for you?
Blue Velvet - one of my favorite movies! i saw it in this really cool old theatre in the E Village. they never showed movies like *that* in Chattanooga!! wow. hadn’t thought of it in a very long time. maybe i’ll add it to my netflix list.
it is the division, us versus them, that prevents us from working together to fix societal problems… it’s been planned that way, indoctrinated into us for so long. way too long.
Hey Nicole, i slept late this morning anyway. unusual for me, but there you have it. tomorrow would be great. thanks!!
exactly, us vs them is so destructive. i'm glad you slept late (hoping it was refreshing) and will give you a call in about an hour - still too early lol - i'm still adjusting from being on UK time - fell asleep at 7 pm or something ridiculous like that so by 4 am had to get up, because I felt sore from lying down so long.
hey y'all. this been on my mind a while. this division, this inequality, the lies people are afraid to question. and i don't really see things the way other people do, so it's real hard for me to find words, you know? so i'm typing, whatever flows out. okay. because i see the forces at work, energies, to be conscious and aware, beings without bodies, spirit. and whenever there is division, war, killing, greed, slavery, oppression of any sort, i sense the presence of a certain particular spirit. his name is abraham. you dig what i'm trying to say?
hope this goes through, the comments box is funny…. ack
so my own problem, for a very long time, was i perceived the war god, whatever you wanna call him, as being evil. he is no more evil than any other part of creation. BUT, like everything else, if you attempt to control it, it will end up controlling you. Love is the same way, you know. all spirit is like that. you can try to control it, which always hurts people no matter how “good” your intent, that is your choice to make, each of us, for ourselves.
freedom is the answer. it’s the only answer we need. and it’s so simple. not easy, not by a long stretch, it is so hard to let go of the lies we are afraid to question. so the first step is addressing those fears, i think. at least it was for me.
so… now i'm going back to the original quesiton. how do i respond to negative people?
negative, to me, now, meaning those who want to control spirit, ask it to do their bidding.
i respond by not being afraid. no fear in the way, they have no power to control me.
sure, they can choose to do horrible things to me and/or my loved ones in attempt to make me afraid and control my actions, but that is their choice to make. I am not responsible for their actions, no matter how they might try to place the blame on me.
i'm free!
yes, you are! i loved that Who song you posted, it has long been a favourite of mine, makes my heart sing - freedom tastes of reality…
