everything

Okay, this is what gets me confused as all hell...

Oxajil and deedlet come in saying i made a good decision and all that but truthseeker, you're being very harsh and i know its just 'cause you want

me to SEE myself, you're holding up a mirror for me...and i appreciate it, i really do, i've learned a lot from this mirroring that goes on here.

so why these mixed responses?

This is one of those "i don't get it" moments, and maybe i need to have those so i can come to an important realization about myself.

Are all of you correct in a way? Aren't all the responses worth considering? I don't wanna beat myself up but i dont wanna pat myself on the back...

Abstract, only you know if you made the right decision. If you think you did not then you will learn from it and from everyone's responses to your dilemma here (everyone's response here is valuable, no matter what reaction they create in us), and next time you are in a similar situation then you can practise what you have learned. Abstract, this journey we all are on is basically a hellish experience, but worth every minute of our lives. We will find ourselves torn apart constantly between the angel and the devil sitting on our shoulders, and I must say that I get deceived by both constantly until the moment when I stop myself from doubting myself and judging every action/decision I make. And if I do mess up again then I try to do it differently until it feels right for me. And if I don't get it yet, I hope that soon I will. I mean I cannot be going in circles till the end of my life, there has to be a time when I will come to the realization that the right way I have known all along but somehow I was missing it. Maybe this phenomena is caused by a stupid gene that is within my genetic makup, but what if it s a smart gene that makes me suffer and learn at the same time.

As CC's have said many times we should enjoy the ride, as it was designed to be bumpy.

Also do you think it would be right to give your sister a percentage of the rent for the time you did stay there ?

[...] i had only lived with them for a week and 2 days

I think that would be fair and show good faith either way. What my landlord is doing for me is prorating my rent the last extra days I am staying there. For example, in your case the deal was $300/month. Assuming a 30 day month that's $10 a day. So shooting them $90 for the time spent there (regardless of the extra things you did) seems fair. Also a good way to temper that old self-importance program... osit.

I agree that the fair thing to do would be to pay for the amount of time spent there (even if it was miserable). In fact, if you aim a little higher than fair, you could add an extra 10. for a late fee if they must wait until you are paid. And don't count all the things you did while there as something they owe you for. Those acts can only be counted towards your honorability if they were given freely.

Does anyone know how Abstract is doing? I have not seen him post anything for a while, or maybe I have not paid any attention.

Thanks Gandalf and DanielS. I was just wondering if he changed his name or something. I feel like I am in school here and when someone has been here longer than me I assume that they have progressed more on their pathway than I. It would be interesting to know the many reasons why some people quit or give up for a while, when in fact, here people can learn lessons that are truly extraordinary, lessons that may never be learned anywhere else. I don't want to sound like a fanatic or something, believe me,there have been many times when I felt like closing the door, but for me that option to close it for good is just not there. So, if I ever stop coming here then that means I checked out to 5D. ;) I hope not soon, I still have a few hundreds of classes to attend.

I'm having trouble understanding the exact meaning of this sentence in the context of this thread. Are you referring to Abstract somehow? In my experience it can be counterproductive to start comparing your "level of progress" with someone else.

I agree with Aragorn here. Mona, it doesn't work that way and I'm sure you know that. Low self-esteem for the moment :P ?

 

[Mona]

Oh yes, both of you are right Andi and Aragon, I sure had a very low self esteem right there at that moment. Thanks for helping me snap out of it. It's that stupid program I have difficulty getting rid of. thanks ;)
