Smenkare: The green eyed monster. Why is it so often used to test the strength of a relationship?

Personally I prefer the old fashion way of testing strength of a relationship, arm-wrestling ...

Ccincy: Jac The reason I didn't answer your question is because I had only stated my opinion.It wasn't for entering into a long lengthy debate with anyone.

I wasn't trying to promote a lengthy debate about your comment.

Mostly, I was wondering who it was directed at and why, given it was quite a negative comment.

Without explanation, it neither contributes to the debate, nor raises awareness of your dissatisfaction. There's not a lot anyone can do about it then, is there? It just leaves people wondering what they, or others, might have done to annoy you.

bodleing: Spend some quite time without your thoughts, your mind will protest at first for being ignored... but it has to be put in it's place...


hi g wave i think that's why i spend so much time painting, and when i don't i get ....rather...bent...
i meditate, listen to guided meditations, big fan of monroe and holo sync..but it's during those times of painting...
the point of the brush as it reaches the canvas, time disappears, and i look up hours later...rested from my own mind.

rider4u: On the contrary my dear jono...we are not responsible for the thoughts that enter our mind, only how long we entertain them. When one sees the folly of a certain thought and lets it go, there is growth. Often we need to think it through before acting and sometimes the original thought comes from a teaching early in our development that we no long hold valid.


lovely to e-see you rider! wave i miss reading your posts.
yes, old teachings, old ingrained rules and habits...that no longer serve any good purpose. i seem to have an abundance of them. working on it though... hug

jac379: I did an online autism test last night.

I'm still struggling to get my head round how highly I scored.

I like having the opportunity to think, re-read and edit, too.


ok....laugh i am NOT taking that test....

jac, you have shared some things in posts in the past, and i have found great comfort in them because i do hold you in high esteem and have appreciated your honesty in the threads. more than you know, it has helped me to get through some of my darker moments with my ADD.
thank you
hug

I wish you hadn't posted that. :( I decided to do the channel 4 Autism test on line and scored 36. The average is 18 and the highest is 40. sigh

Cool, now can you help me get my head round my thingy? laugh

I mean I've strongly suspected for a while now, but hell, I scored higher on that damned test than I did in my 'O' levels. wow laugh

The way I look at it is this: Our heads work differently from some 90% of the population's. That can be a pain in the butt sometimes, but it also gives us those extras that other people don't have. The mind which contains the ADD is also the mind which contains the art - without one, you probably wouldn't have the other.

Then there's colour perception, lateral thinking, 'seeing round corners' (my daughter understands that one better than I do and she's currently a very fine, fine art student), intellectual capacity, all sorts.

Given a creative mind, it shouldn't be too difficult for either of us to continue creating from the ample resources we have.

Godsgift: I wish you hadn't posted that. :( I decided to do the channel 4 Autism test on line and scored 36. The average is 18 and the highest is 40.

I thought the average for the control population was 16.4 and 80% of those with autism scored 32 and above.

Me? 33.

Had their been a question about feeling affection towards prime numbers, or cooking in odd numbers, I would have made you look like small fry, I tell ya. laugh

Brilliant!
I understand why writing poetry and sketching is such a connecting force with me.

Seeing round corners, I thought as a young child strange.
But I soaked it in
Now its to me a wonderment within itself.

Maybe that's why I am so strange to many people?

lol

cool
Very Cool!

Very Cool!

That is exactly the same thought I had after I got my test results, I kid you not. laugh

As I said to my daughter before she started secondary school, "You'll never be in the 'In' crowd. You'll be in the 'Oddball' crowd, but you'll meet a helluva lot of interesting people".

Awesome!
I ended up in the film industry, with diverse plays and films meeting many odd ball figures.

Behind the scenes we were, just how I loved it!
A life beyond what many, could never even conceive.

My part with my then partner was technician camera people
techo dolly grip girl too!

Good people realise talent
whether your making a sandwich to filming a movie.

woohoo!


cool pointing joy

Nice to speak with you againbouquet
