💫 Community Highlights Thread

[Divine_Lotus]

Here we share our most memorable posts by our community members

Ideally this would be great to record and archive for every year. This is to remind us of and appreciate our best moments and memories.

Here are the guidelines:

1. Not from commonly posted threads such as the Meme, Random Thoughts, Testimonials, Music, Quotes etc
2. Theme: inspiring, eye-opening, heartfelt, uplifting, life-saving, humorous (even if it seems random), thought-provoking, wholesome
3. Only from our own community forum members
4. From active non-anonymous members ideally (not required)
5. Original posts only (not linking or outsourcing or hearsay)
6. Anything that brings to light and expresses who we are and what we do in harmony
7. Less about facts; more about our community’s spirit
8. Overlooked posts that we feel should be brought to light which expresses the above

Here are some highlights!

@IAmJonathan

Every time I flex it the collective develops new muscle fibers!

@MasterOfYellow

Different races were sent to Earth to help us learn different things. We’re supposed to be a “best of everyone” race.

@Nabs101

Did Mary Poppins stay longer after her objective was complete?

@candy

I’m kinda Feng Shui otaku

@Scribe

So I think what I’m hearing is @Jennyfire caused all of the issues we were having…or at least her guardians had a hand in it.

@Jennyfire

Lol it wasn’t me

@gpo

Just noticed it is 1000 Days since the forum started… the journey has been interesting.

@JAAJ

what I discovered from oberserving my own life and the lives of others is that we often only learn a complex spiritual lesson by going through annoying iterations or painful situations. It is because only when we look at several iterations we discover a pattern and become aware. And then once this pattern comes to our realization, we make a new decision and experience actual change.

2nd set of highlights

@SammyG

I love myself because I am myself. I don’t need a reason to love me. Love feels awesome and leads to more positive experiences. So why not love myself?

Finding myself important tends to be a way for my ego to put me above others. I don’t believe I’m above anyone. I try my best to see everyone as equal (not perfect at this).

@El_Capitan_Nemo

I suppose you can see it like that in a way.
The problem really is in understanding and seeing the bigger picture,
It is quite easy to get lost in the world, everyday life, finding food, shelter.
In quiet moments, people reflect, ahh there must be something bigger than this.
Then return to everyday living.

There is a saying we are like little pieces of light from a greater shard of light.
A small fire begotten from the large one.
Then in a logical thought process, we are no different from the larger fire and can burn just the same.

The real folly is taking this as truth without ‘realizing’ it.
(a realization is the innate understanding of the subject, in completion without speculation.)

Then the ego takes over, it says
I am the great so and so now, I am just like god,
I have simply been sleeping now I have awakened my grand power.
(the ego is personality imposing on the world to support its ‘identity’ which is, no doubt artificially created and sustained through day to day interactions, you say things that support the reality and the ideas you associate with, and tell these things to other people. (I think this, that is the way it should be, i believe that, etc etc))
Just as you question, am I really doing it for me? or because god wants it.

@El_Capitan_Nemo

humble yourself firstly
No pretend humbleness… that is for the ‘real world’
You cant lie to yourself or the universe at large (how can you? I mean… think about it)
Your mind, subconscious will correct you,
(you) your consciousness will start inducing a of self created humbling measures.
Sadly experiences have a role, in that they shape how we are supposed to see the world.

The world you see and think… isn’t the same one your neighbour or anybody sees really.

@SammyG

We percieve the world the way we do because of our personal experiences but even if someone else had the experiences we had, they may choose to percieve it a whole different way. We are very unconventional in that we don’t tell people what reality is. Nor do we tell you what ‘truth is.’

We give our subjective perspective on these things and you take it however you like. We give you tools (fields) and you have your esperiences with them and take it however you personally do.

Great topic/thread!

I couldn’t resist … @Atreides where did this come from?

@Atreides

Trying to feel a void to fill good. Can you fill up the basket enough so that it is good. So you can feel the void around you of empty basketness. You are the basket. The basket is good. The basket can be filled with void but only because it is not the void.

I couldn’t resist … @Atreides where did this come from?

I don’t do drugs but my brain produces its own drugs sometimes. Ok, everyone’s does. Mine’s baseline might be a little bit higher every once in a while.

But for the record, yes, that actually made sense to me when I wrote it. And if you try hard enough it actually makes sense. Like staring at one of those 3d 2d pop up images a little bit. But if you look hard enough, it’s there.
