This is beautiful, P7, thank you!

I think of the flashing light as energy passing from one to another.....

healing light maybe.......support.......caring......
Yes!

I dont have a queote on courage but i have some thoughts.... I ask the class to take what they want and leave the Rest.
Quotes from the world "famous" aren't necessary, ...ours are wise and honest.
For me.. courage means getting up every day, doing the small things, not letting the washingup stay in the sick till it walks ! EEK! showering actually getting out of bed or my chair....... and doing stuff.
Thank you!
So many people don't see their acts of courage in their daily lives...
We, at least I do, tend to think that acts of courage are big and blaring and worthy of publicity.
In truth, it is the person who wakes up, not ready or wanting to meet the world, and gets up anyway.

making myself stop and smell a flower when all I want to do is stay indoors and curl up and hide, taking care of myself first and then others (a very brave thing to do in my book)
Oh so familiar, P7.
During one of my bad spells, I had to decide if I was going to get up and use the loo, or was I going to wet the bed. I make no apology for feeling that way...it was where I was at the moment. It took a lot of courage for me to get up and tinkle then stay out of that bed...

Taking care of ourselves. Why, oh why, do we think others are more important? Ingrained is my belief...tell someone enough times that they are worthless, and it will become truth to us.

Letting others close enough to see my pain when I can already feel theirs so badly.
Perhaps out of that mutual effort comes another dimension to our healing?
Taking the time to try and dispute the voices from the past that say I do not deserve anything from life and somtimes just putting one foot in front of the other.
GIGO, garbage in, garbage out.
Old tapes
Voices from the past
It would be great if someone would invent a Mind Wash, a solution meant to scrub those sticky thoughts off our spirits.
For me these are Huge acts of courage...... and I commend everyone who can or is trying to do them (or even thinking about doing them lol)
P7, I follow your lead on this...
I salute everyone of us who put one foot in front of the other; it's forward movement.
I have so much love inside - hiding - that i try to share - but am afraid to - I am afraid of hurting others or being hurt - but i have never found anything here to hurt me in this classroom. Sometimes PC is not....well.... I dont know - some times i am too open to the world and others i am curled so tight that no-one can get near me.
((P7))
understood...by many of us
Be safe be well be happy - P7 ( for those who want them and just so you know virtual hugs are fine for me lol )
hugs are great
handshakes are great also
everyone choosing what is all right with them? Priceless.

In Peace
