...i believe that the negative does have a place in our lives and that we must come to grips with it. learn to understand how we react to these "fears". from there, we learn to override them. or yes, they will grab our attention... the world is probably full of exaggerated examples that can help people percieve "how it is" in ways that may be useful to them.

the saga of star wars contains a cycle: "fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to pain...was that yoda? anyhow, in some context the idea of promoting illusions of separation in ways to capitalize or sustain hierarchys seems to complement the idea of concealment which can hint to the nature of the "unknown" - that having some looming uncertainty or unknown hovering over people may not tend to bring out the best in them.

my impression is that by sharing freely, of opening and reducing the extent of such concealments or illusions of separation - we as a group can grow more positive. by engaging in communication we may help one another diffuse such things as fear that leads to anger that leads to hate that leads to pain.

this may not be the best way to go into a negotiation because we play our cards out in the open, trading off our power plays for acts of community growth that may "in the larger picture", take us much further than any business deal could.

if now one is thinking where in my life could a negative influence reside - consider one's relationship to money and how that money intimately connects to the very negative elite conveniently without any hint of traceability. yes, of course there is a place for negative influence in our lives because so much of our daily life contains efforts of trade.

an impression is that some of the healing balms include simply making offerings, tithing, giving charity, allowing money to freely flow without having to rationalize profits or loss in ways preventing stagnation or congestions of energetic blockage.

by analogy, maybe opening up and writing in groups as this is a form of making offerings, of being generous as giving charity; though difficult to say.
