    I think, for the very first time in my life, at 43 years old,
    I UNDERSTAND there's a difference between LOVE and DESIRE.
    Desire requires:
    1. Strengths: flirty, confident, cute, funny, sexy, wholesome.
    2. Fearlessness. I have confidence in my coping if you hurt me,
    and I have the power to hurt you too. So let’s not hurt each other.
    3. Here’s what I love about my body. I’m going to focus on accentuating what I have.
    Love requires:
    1) Connection.
    2) Compatibility.
    3) Chemistry.

    all I could think to say to him was "yes I love you."
    And he stood up and said "that doesn't satisfy me at all.
    Then I knew one of us was in deep trouble 🤣

    Wait till the end . “ I finally wanted to get Free more than I wanted to be high ….. sit with my depression , lows , sadness , my boredom, what gets me down etc… opening into that is where I found the beauty….stop feeding more is better …. Not motivated to change my consciousness…realize enough … is enough. Working with enough ness … without dope… not always great …. But I’m blown away by the beauty of it all “

    Yes.
    Who are you when you don’t get in your own way, even if you’ve gotten in your own way and continue to do so? Who are you in reflection here & now? Are you ever who you used to “be” if you’re not Being “It”?
    🤟🏾 Love You! 😊

    • @bluesteelthunder
      @bluesteelthunder 3 місяці тому

      I started easing up on cannabis and began making meditation a daily discipline. Then, I had a thought that maybe it would be time for me to listen to Ram Dass' lectures. 💜 May you find the peace in not telling your self that you "need" to imbibe to get high. All clingings of the mind, are just that. All of them. 🕊️

    I have an afterglow with psychedelics when I use in moderation…
    Acid 1-4x a year. Shrooms once every full moon or every other.
    MDMA once or twice every 1-2 years (be very careful with MDMA).
    DMT and Ayahuasca should only be used for ceremonial purposes and you should have a shaman or guide at all times.
    All other psychedelic experiences should also be monitored. Intentions need to be set.
    Set and setting are crucial.
    These are not recreational drugs to be taken lightly. They must be treated with respect and used intentionally.
    I too have abused in the past and it looses it’s benefits. This goes with anything in life.
    “Anything taken beyond necessary becomes poison. This can be sex, food, drugs, tv, information, etc.”
    Stay away from witches.

    @29:38 This sounds like what happened to R.Crumb back in the '60s when he had a really bad bad trip that afterwards it took him a long while to recover from (funnily it was a 2nd trip that "released" him from his angst... or so I heard)

    How do you get to that point where you’re so disaffected, disconnected from the high that you reject it and just be with what is? I think it has to be physiological as I found that when I was younger it was easier to reject those forms of escape.
