DARK EMOTIONS RISING UP IN OUR CORNER

Hello gangs, friends, fellow bloggers, readers, contributors, commentators, ladies and gentlemen.

I have been away for a while and it seems like there is dark mood prevailing in our midst. I can't help but notice the wave of destruction bestowed on us by dark emotions from people who we think are our friends, or lovers and how we grieve over the fact that we become victimized by them.

Question: When we feel the first hit of doubt, how long does it take for us to accept that we're into something destructive? And do something about it?

What do we do then? Is there a modus operandi applicable for us to apply? Is it to our advantage to bear the burden of questioning and clarity our doubts? Or are we afraid to be wrong and allow us further to be taken for a ride?

Any suggestions?

Thanks for all your reads and contributions.

id comment ...but it would only cause controversy.......
Go ahead Nam, how are you my friend. Sometimes controversial declarations are those that either make us twisted or learn most of life. So I dare you to spit it out, will you?
When we feel the first hit of doubt, how long does it take for us to accept that we're into something destructive?


Is it me or is that an incomplete notion
Thanks for pointing it out Dedo, yes I agree it was not complete and I hope it is better now. I was more on the time frame of acceptance that we're taken yet not necessarily sure or even perhaps confused on our plight.
Nobody likes to think they're not trusted so you're doomed if you do, doomed if you don't doh grin wine
"If theres a reason for doubt...Then its time to get out".....
Z, I believe it's what makes us so difficult to act on it right away because of that. We stand on a rather confusing line, so we tend to become doubters but more so on our perception rather than those that use and manipulate us.
I tend to disagree Nam. While it is probably a very easy way out, yet what about if our doubts sometimes are just unfounded? Could it be that we're too paranoid?

Are we always right? What about seeking for truth with whom we're involved with? Remember if we do love someone and deception is not quite apparent, would we just walk out?
doubt is suspicion....being suspicious is doubting...if the other side wont clarify anything for you....what are you supposed to do...live in doubt together in doubt and suspicion?..yes if ur really in love i guess you can try to work it out....but if at the end of all of that..if the doubt is still there...are you still staying together?....i dont think i am.....
Fair enough Nam. I think we can only hope that when that feelings awake us, then we can either act on it right away to save us from so much prolonged sufferings.

Fear is also a factor. We love them so much and can't accept the lying they are leading us to.
to the tune of Bee Gees "Massachusetts".....And the lights all went on Lindseys blog.....And Lindseys blog...Is one place I have seen.........
Ek, thanks so much for your participation. I'm sold on your principles and sound practice. There's no way you can get hurt there. However. I'd have to state that the most beautiful love I've had are both from here.

Nevertheless, I'm sure all of us have our own shield for protection that serves us right.
Dark Supicions
Maybe the Fly should think of VOOD- DOO and BLACK MAGIC

And I know the Fly is not welcome here on this blog.

I have gone over the Reef I have seen the deep blue with in blue

All of us have supicions going into the new

Yet my eyes are open

And I am always listening.

There is no time for doudt.....peace

PS. Only to see us as we are, not what I think or of any-orthe think

WHEN HAVE YOU LOOKED AT ME WITHOUT SUICIONS ????

RED IS GRAY AND YELLOW WHITE....

ALL OF US HAVE DARK SIDES.... ARE WE BETTER THAN THE REST????
Ek, I agree with you. I do believe you can grow feelings for somebody over the Internet, but you have to hold back until you meet them in RL, before thinking it is an actual relationship.

Nothing is real until it's real. ..
Simmo, I'll get back soon, had a dinner date with my love and wrapping it up.

Thanks Guys
There must be more than a thousand questions running through your mind now Simmo, perhaps some you'll find answers and some not, but the truth of the matter is that there's a lot of them pure evil out there lurking in our midst, grab every opportunity that opens up to serve their claim. They think from a separate norm. Maybe we'll never understand them. But maybe they don't even have reasons. Just pure cold and cruel intentions for their needs.

But we are meant to get past these hurts. We're STRONG. In reality she's reading this and if conscience doesn't dig up to her bones, you're one lucky man, to have survived this hurdle in life.

We're lucky to ever share your story. Laugh with you and cry with you as we're one true community of good people.

Thanks Simmo. We all love you and that person is one unlucky soul.

Take care.
Fly I'm a little confused why claim your not being welcomed here. You're Most Needed part of all of us and thanks for joining.

It's not a question of your being better or not. It's a question of cruelty and inhumanity inflicted to a very caring and loving person. Why? Beats the hell out of me.

Glad to hear from you...what an awful thing to happen...but we are all vulnerable...we all take chances and some decisions are bad ones but if we don't try...then we may never meet or become good friends...so although there may have been some red flags...we do need to try and trust as well...it is in the spirit of good things to come...
Hi Lindsy.

I agree with Ekself & Molly here:
"Ek, I agree with you. I do believe you can grow feelings for somebody over the Internet, but you have to hold back until you meet them in RL, before thinking it is an actual relationship.
Nothing is real until it's real." ..

teddybear

I´ll get back to you later on that one ok?wave
Molly my dear friend, thanks for your thoughts. Confirmed but when the flow of the emotions got opened up, like a dam holding up the current of the water, it's unabashed. Perhaps there are some of us who can control and use reservation, it's not me.

When I love, I give it all.

No holds barred.
My dearest lovely and caring friend. Thanks, I wouldn't have made the effort but because you're such a very wonderful person, I've found my way to glue myself back here. Exciting and quite rare to find ourselves united for one great cause. To show our love and undying concern for those we love.

Simmo is our catalyst here and his experience would definitely touch us deeply. Make us learn from our trusting ways to be carved out a little and be more careful and aware.

Love you all my friends.
My dearest darling Minerva, I'm so delighted you can participate. Your Wisdom Shines all through our world. Yes, caution is our best tool to avoid pitfalls, however, it's also what can make us miss some possibilities of the adventure we're so thrilled to find.
Dats right - if she love me, then she lease me....

G my friend how is Germany? I'm on my way to Europe. Sorry for all of us being fooled in believing a lie.
Since everything about the Earth and Mankind in my opinion is an Utter Lie, Its Easy wink

Therefore i must rationalize and make my assumptions on a moment by moment basis, while still continuing to trust nothing nor anyone, including myself uh oh
Love you can easily say that and seems fit walking on egg shells but the truth is, there's enough tolerance we can all bear to find love and comfort even among the pile of rubbish, you know?

Then change happen and road to recovery for trust and joy abounds.
As i said, Love and Trust comes in Spurts banana
A little bit of doubt keeps the boredom at bay. It's up to you to find your happy balance between uncertainty and complacency.

How destructive it needs to be for you to act depends upon how enraptured you are.
Yes love how was your last encounter?
Obs, I like that. There's thrill and euphoria from finding the truth. Livable and correctable depends on how enraptured we are indeed. But what about when we choose to accept the inconsistencies of what is truth?
even if u would come to europe
and even want to see me
my holes are all barred

and i need consent
from lil'leakey
to unbar

and even then
i won't
but i could show u
the redwoods nearby.
No problem G. I can very well manage on my own.
Be careful love, when you sense that it's more of a difficult and miserable encounter then, just back off.

Take care
Hello SR,

I am not singling out any one person here in particular because I have a hunch that it pertains to us all.

Regarding "Dark Emotions"

It seems sensible to me that any thought...or thinking...if prolonged for any period of time will turn into a belief. Any belief prolong for any period of time will turn into a behavior.

Keep in mind the sequence of those three: thinking leads to beliefs which lead to behavior.

Dark emotions are essentially dark thoughts. For example, a dark emotion could be anger. Anger arrives in us by "thinking" somebody done us wrong. Even if the person really did us wrong, we need to think they done us wrong before it turns into an emotion. The opposite could be said about "good" emotions. Lets use being happy as an emotion. We only feel happy when we have positive "thinking" going on in our heads. For example,if somebody wins the lottery....they will feel happy.

Do you see any connection between the dark and happy emotions? Yes, both involve thinking...but there is something else. That something else is the "I" or our ego....we could also include the physical body in there too.

What do you think happens when we bypass the I, or ego, or physical self?

I know you said you are familiar with Eckhart Tolle. That is great. In fact, what he teaches could be understood in a matter of a minute or two. However, to put into practice what he teaches has taken me 4 years. Even after 4 years, I still sometimes get sidetracked.

Instead of being so fixated on who or what has done you wrong in this life.....because guess what....somebody or something is ALWAYS going to do you wrong in life...., maybe focus on the beauty of what is in everyone and of what makes up everything?

Wish you the best SR.
Question: When we feel the first hit of doubt, how long does it take for us to accept that we're into something destructive? And do something about it?

Anywhere from a month to 20 years! Depending on the ability to do something about it, many people are stuck in a situation financially or personally.


What do we do then? Is there a modus operandi applicable for us to apply?

RUN!
Hi LJ, wave I have been lucky in the past to be with great guys I did trust and can say we were an "item".

From my experience, if communication, respect and as a result love for each other stops.

Unfortunately if you meet someone new and it takes a while to get to know each other, it is a way harder decision. Probably when your gut feeling tells you to run.
Johnny thanks for such a great experience, insight and explanation. Clear and simple relationship are often very boring. So shall the adventure within that situation. What do we do? Complicate and deliberately try to raise the bar of challenges we have to hurdle if only to measure the depths of our strength.

While not always the case, sometimes circumstances do shape themselves up because of who we are. Our differences and intricately complex make up driven by our cultural differences, beliefs, environment and values lead us to a very frayed understanding of our situations.

This is just part of our learning that can lead us to change, adjust and eventually adapt.

But the truth of the matter is, we do have the obligation to be observant and sharp and or simply be more keen when we're new.

In a situation where the old and conservative ways of getting on a relationship from someone who had known us forever us much easier. The new and revolutionary wave afforded us by the Web is, a totally different ballgames that requires more of meticulously and in depths if only to find out who we're dealing with.

Lying is a built-in technique for most of these people to serve their interest.

Now yes, valuing your experience as to how it gave you a different perspective and adventure is grossly understate if games of pure destruction is not employed.

But being calculating, cold and purely being used and apply deceit is cruel. Period.

It mutilated us, cripple our belief and poison our soul.

Yes, we do need to rise above and heal. Charge it to our experience.

When thieving of one's IDENTITY is involved, then that is a heavy crime meted for federal punishment.

Truth, Johnny is that there are many EVIL PEOPLE out there so we just have to be careful.

Thanks
KN, my friend how are you. To me, skype and personal meeting presides all my over indulged involvement.

Even then, some perceptions and formed expectations can be devastatingly wrong.

But we live together to check and learn more about ourselves and see if there's a good progress coming up in the future.

Sometimes we love ourselves loving the one we're with and we're blinded by the reality of what's going to hurt us.
