hey friends, I'm going to slack off here after about 7 years of coming here everyday, for my growth, fun and relaxation mostly.
I notice theres a pattern of humanity, it gets going and everyone is learning and having them aha moments, and feeling good, and accepting each other's differences. then it gets gnarley and not such a fun place to be, and shuts people down, as far as the newbies who might come and join us, making it an even better place to hang and grow.

so you will notice this pattern if you hang here long enough and come to expect it. You will get back the energy you place here, in how honest you can be, without putting someone else down in the process. I think it's something to do with the way others compare themselves to others, and we need to get way past such things in the new age, and mature to the PUL. 24/7. you are all marvelous to me.

I'm going to look around to get back into the music scene, it will take all my spare time to go obe and look for the right members, but I've done this before, no sweat.

I will gradually wean myself here, my emotions are still here, so u might see me once in awhile for a month or so and then nothing at all, is how I expect it to be.

I wanted once more to thank Bruce for giving me a home to grow myself on. and he knows I love it here. I wanted to thank each poster for even reading me, as without you, who would notice I was alive even?
you see it is about PUL. It is not about judging others for their beliefs. It is like our newest member Nanner said. How do we get to acceptance part?

this is not just a board question. this is a world wide question. This board tries to get to the acceptance part. but it goes up and down in its pattern, and I think that is the nature of the beast and so it is.

You guys remember the love, keep to it, Blink, we need the poetry. Nanner, we need your organization ability, Ian, we need to know the Buddhist path is good too. DaveMBS we need your high intellect. Bruce's wisdom and PUL is needed. Pulsar, your seek and find, your gentle way is needed. Orlando, the same. I can't do the whole list, it would take too long. V and Bets and Spooky, I have your email address if I want to bug you.

I told you to take care of each other and I know you will.
Enjoy your holiday with your family. love, alysia

you sparkle and shine dear, a true diamond. I'll be in and out, but irregular. keep the music ok? love, alysia
