Vol'Boben, perhaps you don't fully perceive what "Love" and the those in tune with same are all about? There is a side to the Big Love, that i call the more masculine, tough Love side--it's not all nicey nicey and personality flattering all the time. However, even then it is basically accepting and has positive intentions/motivations.
Re: you, me, being challenged, and Love, here are some things you may not know. While i was being a bit sarcastic earlier, i was being serious that i have thought about you, wondered where you were, hoped you were doing well wherever you were, and was kind of glad to see you back.
In the past, unlike some, i never complained to any authority about you, and while i sometimes disagreed strongly with your views and perspectives, it was just that, disagreement, nothing less and nothing more. Certainly no personal dislike or intolerance was involved and i haven't ever tried to shut you up or get rid of you, though i admit to hoping for some conversion to the more Light side of the force. (Though i believe i did ask once or twice why you hung around with a bunch of people you just think of as unknowledable fake hypocrites). Just a background hope more than anything, for i can tune into people and quite well, and i feel lot's of pain locked up inside you and i know the big Love would set you free.
Me, i've been booted off almost every forum i've ever been on (& in the other cases intensely disliked by more than a few, and certainly not well tolerated by the majority), and strangely enough this is the only place i haven't been booted off permanently and YET (ironically perhaps), it was the only place wherein i deserved to be booted temporarily and was. I know what it's like being on the receiving end of intolerance, lack of acceptance, truly fake and hypocritical "Love", and i do practice the golden rule which is one of the beginning ways to the bigger Love.
So, i guess what i'm saying is that Life, Love, and me may be bigger than what you conceive, and certainly growing up is a continuing process for all of us. However, we don't really start to grow up until two things begin to happen. We become conscious of the reality and importance of that Big Love, which is based on the fundamental simultaneous truth of Oneness and Individuality (i think both are equally important), and more importantly we sincerely try to open up to and choose that in a day to day, moment to moment way.
Because all of us (well not all, there was Yeshua) fall short in some way most of the time from BEING that more purely, doesn't mean that Big Love or it's importance doesn't exist, it just means that it's hard wearing these silly human suits and being our real selves at the same time, nor does it mean that it's a practical or helpful use of time constantly throwing it in people's faces of how much they fall short of that, how hypocritical they are, etc, etc especially to those whom you are interacting with in a more personal and spontaneous social way.
Sometimes it's true, sometimes it's not, but there are more productive and joy facilitating ways of spending ones time. When you get and more so live that, then growing up takes on some real and objective meaning.
For realz
