Hi Guys,
Went on quite a GOOGLE journey this morning prompted by needing a definition of clairaudience and winding up with a great movie short in the
Spiritual Humor section of
www.experiencefestival,com/spiritual_jokes The movie is called
The interview with God and located at
www.theinterviewwithgod,com/presentation.html Hi Bob,
As I was reading your experience of helping the young man in the cafe, I too came up with some doubt, questions, and cynacism but then I remembed that you tend to use a lot more input than than merely your C1 consciousness in deciding when a situation warrents aid. Therefore, I was able to read between the lines in your up lifting story knowing that your coming from a mature good heart position. Alysia pointed out some of the non verbal cues and put along with inner tips that you've learn to trust, I get what you mean when you complemented him on his courage and why you were so willing/prompted to help him.
There are many who approach us for help, and sometimes it's difficult to know the difference between being a fellow traveler ready to give assistance, like the work of a guide in the physical sense or an enabler. For example, I have a client who is homeless and an alcoholic who makes his living by begging. His job is to beg and my job is to say no to his requests while at the same to keeping a ear open for those that will help him long term. We sort of make a joke about it but he comes in daily. My boss wants him transferred out but by his history, he always returns and the paperwork all has to be redone. For me, refusal to help is clear cut but for many of the others I come across, I must tune into my heart/gut/little voice or other postive signs to distinguish between helping or hurting by giving. So I can understand why some might be skeptical about helping others or question a story about helping someone.
Hope I haven't confused everthing or failed to compliment Bob on helping those *fellow travelers at the cafe.
*fellow travlers- all of us in C1 travling the bumpy road through life.
Love, Jean
p.s. Wish I had a really good guide book instead of having to write it as I go along. J
