You don't really need me but ya keep me hangin' on

Self-preservation

but you're not, you're a good one.

Self-preservation

yep, I hear ya!

Self-preservation

You're a good egg woman...I love ya.

Self-preservation

It just made me realize that I can take it One day at a time and I can survive and I guess that is what I needed to know today.

Self-preservation

I just have to say that this thread was helpful for me today. I knew CS was a place of friendships, humor and it was educational at times, but now it also seems to offer free therapy when needed. Wow! What a great place. Thank you all who contributed.

RE: Quotes about Relationships/Love

“Love comes to those who still hope even though they've been disappointed, to those who still believe even though they've been betrayed, to those who still love even though they've been hurt before.”


“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

This is interesting "...Can I let go of it...I don't know if I want to...maybe that makes all the difference!!!!"

I have been posed with this question before? At the time maybe I just didn't care enough to actually even think about it. But I think now I am questioning and the question is not why but why not?

Self-preservation

"It is just a matter of accepting that I am who I am, I will feel as I do (sad or happy) and that a day at a time I can be free from all mind altering substances! I can do anything in the now, but faced with the thought of a lifetime of abstinance i'm sure I would fail!"

This is the acceptance I strive for and I am sure we share a mutual admiration of friendship.

Self-preservation

Yeah, people have different theories on forgiveness. I use to think that it had to be deserved and wasn't even necessary but I guess I have discovered that it really is something I will do for myself.
And self-forgiveness is very important as is acceptance.

Self-preservation

You guys are too sweet and really very insightful...thank you for allowing me to express whatever I needed to and for your support. I guess I am here for awhile...I don't think this is what I want to let go of, not right now.

Self-preservation

FOREVER!!!! Thank you for putting me in your story, I am sure it will be a delight and interesting to read.

Self-preservation

Well thank you for offering such deep insight. Actually, I believe I am addicted to the computer and to CS and there are other important things in my life that could use more time and energy. I have wondered if I do this as an escape...but if you are wondering if a young man is involved, yes there is. I feel like I am getting ready to let go of something but I am not sure how relevant that is.

Self-preservation

Thank you Sherrie. I do write. I have a hard time with meditation.
I was looking for free online yoga this morning and I found a site with lots of information and many different positions and it even had animation instructions for how to do them. I tried a couple and they killed me...like the locus...I don't think I could ever do that. So I decided I should look further for beginners yoga.

Self-preservation

Yeah, I know I wait until reality slaps me so hard in the face that it knocsk me unconscious and then I wake up just a little bit wiser.

Self-preservation

I agree with everything you said but this is the hard part.

"I think people put up such perceived resistance because behaviour is primarily driven by unconscious beliefs. And if those beliefs are not in line with what you hold in your conscious mind then behaviour will be driven by the unconscious. If you believe something about yourself yet your behaviour isn't consistent with that - it is a pretty good indicator that you have some excavating to do."

Changing the beliefs. how do you change unconscious beliefs?

Self-preservation

I agree. But sometimes I feel so slow at letting go. I mean I will eventually but I usually get there with much resistance, kicking and screaming and holding on as tight I can until I wear myself out.

Self-preservation

How do you describe self-preservation? Is it fear and pain that we do not want to accept? Do addictions stem from the need for self-preservation? What is the cure? Why do we put up so much resistance?
Why is it so hard to let go?

If you attempt to answer any or all of these questions, I appreciate your insights.

RE: Who Likes Bush?...lol

Do I get a free laptop if I say NO?

RE: Just wanted to comment.

Interesting! looks like you had a good eye out for her.
No wonder she couldn't trust everyone, she knew there were people who didn't like her.

RE: Just wanted to comment.

"I want someone as loyal, and as non-judgemental, as Nene, in my corner any day..."


Ditto!

from his jail cell.

RE: God is to busy......

I guess, but what did the Marine learn? I still think they were both trying to force their beliefs.

RE: God is to busy......

I guess I think the professor and the marine was out of line. I have a lot of admiration for professors who taught me to question and realize that there is not just one right way.

RE: Just to say to CS

I think it is a pleasure to have you with your honest, caring personality here too.

RE: Why are people afraid to love? expecially when they want to be loved.

I am not afraid of love. True love is a journey to be shared and I welcome the right person to share it with me.
