Become all you can become with Sophie
He that won't be counselled, can't be helped
The sentence I hear only occasionally, is ‘But what is the work?’It is not because it is not a question that concerns many, it is because you are trained to know the answer, or at least pretend that you do.
I didn’t realize this until yesterday. I did not connect the dots… I didn’t see the forest for the trees. Continue reading “What is the work? Here is a detailed case study…”
Context is like meaning… it is not part of what it is referring to, it is added to it, by a human. And if it is added, then you have a lot of freedom about it: if you can see, that is.
Most people can’t see the forest for the trees… so if you are like that, you won’t see context, until you look deeper. Beyond the obvious. Beyond your automatic. Beyond your machine-like, conditioned, pre-determined ways.
I have been repeating and repeating this idea, that context is decisive. Finally, yesterday, I managed to get it through, or so it seemed, on the Playground.
Context is the hidden part of everything, the hidden agenda. Everyone has hidden agendas, some more than others, some time more than other times.

It’s Tuesday, my “errand” day. I found myself in a great mood today. In fact I’ve been in a great mood for a few days now. Maybe because I am sleeping better since I changed my diet.
Either way, I was observing a guy standing around in a product isle, just looking at stuff. I joked around, and we started to talk.
Turns out that he is Slovakian, and his mother cooked Hungarian… great topic, by the way. You want to talk to someone: food is a good topic… lol.
Emboldened by the conversation I asked if he eats breakfast. “No, no time,” he said. “That’s why you have this big belly” I pointed at the barrel size midsection of this guy. Yeah, he said. “My mother says that I should chase after young women” he said laughing, but if I catch them… and he made a face I could not misunderstand.

I am here, waiting for the cable man to fix my internet. It’s been down since yesterday afternoon.
It is hard to remember what we did with our lives before the internet… for me it’s been 18 years. It is hard to figure out what I can do that does not involve the internet… Finally I settle on writing, editing, and such.
It’s 11:30 am. The repairman was scheduled to be here at 11. I am sitting here, uncharacteristically anxious, contemplating that the man won’t even show up, that he will lie, that I will have to be another day without the ability to work.
It’s excruciatingly painful. I am diligently making room for the bad feelings, including them, breathing normally. Then I have a suspicion: is this mine? I normally don’t get anxious: I take life as it comes.
Turns out I tuned into the repairman: it’s his anxiety. Hm.

The cable tech guy spent two and a half hours at my place, replaced everything, and then realized that it was another tech that came and disconnected my account, on the pole, yesterday. My account instead of the empty apartment downstairs.
I was tempted to get angry, after all what a waste of time, but then I thought better.
In the almost 24-hour long downtime I finally finished the pdf I promised you if you bought the Weight Destroyer program… so now I can give it to you, and maybe even do a call-in: that is if there are enough takers. I will give you the book that will raise the truth value of the Weight Destroyer to 70%. It’s really high. Most things sold on weight, health, money… anything really, are mostly under 10% truth value, so 70% is like god is talking to you directly… lol.

Our last Playground, earlier today, was on the topic of “good/bad.”
It’s a great topic. Why? Because you are limited by that, good and bad, more than most any other adjective: you want to be good, you need to be good, you pretend to be good, you fancy yourself as a good person, you sell your soul to be thought of as good. God will let you into heaven if you are good… you go to hell if you are bad… blah, blah, blah. Lots of greed, lots of suffering around good and bad.
As a foreigner I watch it with fascination. Good and bad is worn like a uniform, covering up a ton of anxiety.

Oops, this was published by accident… although I love it, I am not sure you are ready for me giving it to you straight like this… lol.
This will be, probably, a growing post… so I will republish it every time I add to it.
I also want to take you for granted, stop courting you, stop pleasing you, stop complimenting you… I am tired of earning my keep. So, would you marry me?
–self-sacrifice: I am taking care of you therefore I can’t grow, take care of myself, have a life of my own.
–mother on phone talking to someone else: the real communication: I’d rather be somewhere else, talking to someone else, because I don’t consider YOU (the child) a person, only as luggage. I even consider you deaf, and will talk about stuff I know you should not hear… but who cares!
–I’ll post more as I see more
The Great Divide is what is between being a human, plagued by the incessant thoughts the unpleasant feelings and a HUMAN BEING, a divine being, that has the thoughts, has the feelings, but is largely untouched by them.
What if I could teach you to have your thoughts, have your emotions, have your physical sensations, and still be able to be happy, productive, and well… WITH them, without obeying them, without ignoring them, without fighting them, without arguing with them, without justifying them, without being bothered at all.
What if you could get unstuck by asking different questions?
What if the source of your suffering, the source of your emotional pain isn’t caused by what you think is caused by, but by what you do with it?
These questions, once you are on the other side of the Great Divide… they are easy, obvious, and common sense.
But on THIS SIDE of the Great Divide they don’t make much sense, and certainly there is nothing helpful about them.

In life you are either growing or you are shrinking. You are either moving or you are stuck.
When you grow, you feel wonderful, When you shrink, you feel horrible…
This article is about a method to to cause your own growth in a gentle easy way, little by little.
Below is my horoscope for the week.
In this article I will show you some thinking, constructive thinking moves that you could start practicing, so you can become closer to being a Human Being than you are now… mostly just having thoughts, automatic thoughts that drive you crazy, drive you to hiding, drive you to insomnia, drive you to drinking, eating, surfing, Facebook, and other activities that don’t serve you.
Here is the horoscope:

A vessel is like a cup. If you are buying stuff but aren’t receiving value from what you buy, your cup may be too small, or your cup may be full with stuff you already know, you already do… your cup may even be overflowing…
It’s a psychological fact that you choose to buy something or not to buy it emotionally and then, after you bought it, you justify it rationally.
Whether it is to choose a partner, choose your work, choose a project, or to buy something like a course is immaterial: the psychological fact remains: you buy with emotion and justify it later with your mind.
But how does it really work? Why do you really choose certain things and say no to others?
