hate or boredom
boredom is a lack of interest and implies the non-existance of an object so who or what would you be directing the energy to? can you shift from hate to boredom or would you have to stop and go into neutral or into the centre somewhere along the line?

you are directing the thought to yourself. you are directing thought to yourself to help change the way you feel. the point is being able to change the way you feel, to get unstuck. boredom may not be the goal, but once you see you can get out of hate for a person you "see" through your filter differently. if boredom is not really an emotion you personally connect to... pick a different one to shift to.

the choice of emotions (hate to boredom) was random. it seems to be recomended to start with emotions that are close to each other since it could seem hard to just jump to "unconditional love". if you are really feeling hate about a job or a person, it is hard sometimes to "just feel love" and stay in that space and stablilize.

hello, deerclan. your thoughts are very considerate. if i really felt that info like this would actually be helpful... i am sure i would get my stuff together and do something with it. i am not lazy. however, there is a part of me that does not believe that many people want such ideas...there is a great value placed on the inability to go from one emotion to the other. it appearently means the emotion is "real". so the timing seems off. i admit, perhaps it is just me that is "off"!

back to ds. see next post.

what a beautiful image of a hands off car driven by spirit! it just seems like so many people have their gears shifted by life... external circumstance... there is little room for god to get in there and do any driving. i think i will try to have your dream too! i do that when i turn something over to god because i feel there is nothing i can do in a situation.... it is beyond me.... and it is one of the most freeing feelings in the world. but i don't do it very often... maybe i should.

well... blessings to everyone,

edit added: well that was a whiny post from me! “no one really wants/ likes this info (boo hoo)”

… really, i can be very upfront, hard hitting and pull no punch. i am intense and i just need to learn to be more relaxed and gentle. i … i’ve just got a drill sergeant habit with spirit stuff sometimes. i’ve seen too many friends trying to “tap out” of the final round of this good fight and i haven’t had time to do anything but yell “get up!” or they were going to be out, permanently. alas, lower intensity is a skill i am working on.
