contrary to pop-spiritualism, love is not the final answer. many get stuck in this trying to love, love, love all the time, and then feel like a failure when they fall short. this is a trap.

i would like to make an amend to this portion of my previous response. i've been struggling all day which trying to come up with a better way to say this.

perhaps it would be more accurate to say that love is not the whole answer; there are other things to be taken into consideration. a balanced viewpoint considers not only what is loving, but what is also wise.

this comes up most frequently in cases of abuse and addiction. however, in this particular response i was speaking of your average person who strives to be more loving, but can get swept up into self-condemnation when feeling like they aren't living up to their own extremely high standards.

often times i find it preferable to simply admit to myself that i am not feeling particularly loving, and to limit my contact with others until i experience a shift in my awareness. for me, this occurs on a regular basis, and i don't consider it to be due to some lack on my part. i consider it to be resultant from the fact that many others in this space/time do not display those characteristics which i would find particularly endearing.

as for

maybe there should be a community set up as a sort of half-way point between 3rd density and 4th density
