Hello there, Peter Jennings - Welcome here and pleased to meet you!
A very interesting thread indeed - thanks for initiating it, and for having the courage of sharing yourself to Others so openly.
Just leaving a few thoughts of reflections here. They are in no way revolutionary.
You wrote in a previous post: "At any rate, my whole purpose was to look for anyone who has experienced this same thing I'm describing, or something similar. If you're saying that you have, I'd be very interested to hear what your experience is like."
What will you do when you find the person mirroring your experience in a way you'll find satisfactory? Explode into a "Heureka"-moment, or will you be feeling "validated"?
You seem to be an astute observer, also considering your poker player background, where you have trusted your attention skills. This is also the playground of manipulation. Manipulation requires attention, and to be attentive to the self-serving details, as well as being able to be attentive to the larger picture of things, like contexts, and also to be able to put things into the proper perspective serving the purpose of the situation at hand.
Thus your self-observation and the circumstances you describe have served you as a teaching part of the greater Soul learning path in your life.
You come from an attitude of being in control, which is a lesson in itself. You have studied this. Then you begin experiencing its opposite, the not-being-in-control, which is still part of the lesson. It is looking like the "next step" of the lesson. Now, study this further, because there is a lot more to this than meets the eye, which I believe much of the feedback you have gotten here, is reflecting.
Have you given the reason why you incarnated a thought? What are your lessons? It seems to me you are experiencing a Great lesson taught to give you perspective, thus offering you a choice on how to proceed in your life.
You seem to be in the process of possibly transforming these attention skills of yours. And Free Will is there to allow you to make a choice how to go about the implementation of your insights. You have grown Awareness in this area, and now Knowledge is what is being born out of this.
All according to your chosen path - which you chose using Free Will (nobody did it for you, whether you believe that or not).
These skills of yours can be very useful to Others, if you should learn more about Purpose, and how to put these skills to work for Others.
To be able to find someone who corresponds to your experience in a way you may yourself recognise, you must find someone on the same experiential path.
But what will you learn from someone who is just mirroring yourself in a way only you could acknowledge?
In this thread you have already met several other souls mirroring you, in one way or other. Did you recognise yourself in any of them? Did something provoke you? Leave you frustrated that "nobody seems to get me"?
Because from my own experience, and particularly with clients, what you essentially describe is what many experience on their paths, but in their own ways, and in their own contexts, all according to their chosen paths and level of Awareness.
There is really nothing unique about it. It's just the common progression of things. Still it is important to raise the issue, and in the way you did, because it is something that many do experience, but do not respond to, reflect on - or come to understand or analyse - in the same ways.
All according to their paths.
You wrote somewhere in a post: "Happy to go deeper into it if that’s of interest. But I’d also really like to hear what your experience has been, especially if you’re seeing this same pattern."
Also, what you are describing seems to me, in my own experience, when Ego is beginning to consciously experiencing itself, reflected in your interactions with Life (what you give to Life), thus showing you your Higher calling (your lessons here, your soul plan), which becomes more apparent to you now (compared to before), in your very actions. Our minds are the most powerful thing we are, and as live parts of the Cosmic Mind, we constantly interact, but we do respond differently to this interaction, depending on who we are and what we see.
After all, we are not here on Earth only to play poker, and get stuck in repetitive behavioural patterns and fixed notions of Existence!
That is just a part of our Adventure here! Learning is fun!
The Cosmic Mind is always offering us a Higher game to play!
(For whom will you play it?)
Thank You!
