Truth Perspective: The Alien Plan to Control Humanity with David M. Jacobs

[bjorb]

Hi Divide To Zero,

I think I used you for all the resentment I have with people. Lately, if I believe that someone picks a fight I tend to bury them :( Sorry for wasting and misusing everyone time like that. It's okay to be angry I guess, but it's something else to unjustly vent it on others. It's also a waste of energy that should be spend otherwise. And I also said things I shouldn't have said and shared about myself, some things you just keep to yourself. There is no reason to bother others with something you can and have to deal with. Just proves that it was all drama and that my intent was to 'get back' and attack you :(

There is nothing more I have to share on this. But I had to apologize

You do know that sharing such burdens can help? If you are having a hard time with things, you could discuss them in the Swamp. Repressing anger is not really that healthy. Getting things off of your chest can really help. That way you don't go off on someone who doesn't deserve it. You know that we are all here to help, yes? And, there are so many here who may be able to offer you advice. So if you feel like it would be good for you to vent, you can do it in the Swamp. :)

It sounded a bit like a pity ploy but I don’t want to hijack this topic any further. We only have so much time and energy we can share with others and like said I can deal with it. I know I can just not through venting on others like I did

And if I don't, I will let it know. But first things first, will only use that option as a last resort like it should. Thanks Nienna

It would help also (I think) if you at least get his "name" right.

FWIW.

I think bjorn's apology was sincere and there's apparently some other things that are affecting him that this incident brought out. I'd guess that a misspelling of DBZ's name isn't a big deal in relation to this, particularly since English isn't bjorn's native language. Your statement above comes across as an insult to injury, a poke when bjorn was vulnerable.

Do you think DBZ would take offense? It's an honest mistake, not an intentional one. Why would it "help"? For anyone to get upset about something so small time as that would say more about them than it would the person who made the mistake. And it says a lot about you that you feel the need to needle bjorn about it when it's not even a blip on the radar. He's spelled his name correctly everywhere else.

Sitting, this is an example of an unhelpful and unnecessary intrusion into a conversation. I think it would be prudent for everyone to keep in mind that people (i.e. you too) are having more 'rough' days than usual these days, and to err on the side of understanding and caution in your responses.

Agreed. Nobody has died and left you classroom monitor to tell on every little thing that anyone does that might not be perfectly correct.

Bjorm, I took no offense at all.
It was hearing your fears that reminded me of when I was younger and felt powerless with some things.

I would do the same for my own family if they were interested in these topics.
Maybe it's projection, maybe it's not. But I'm not afraid to talk about these things here even if I might be wrong because we watch each other's back here.

I was actually giving a gentle reminder to someone who's postings I admire a great deal.

When you're writing an apology note to someone, it's important you get their name right. Otherwise, questions can arise as to your sincerity. It's that simple.

That said, mistakes can still occur. But I think (I hope) bjorn took my remark in its intended fashion. If he did not, he is more than welcome to tell me.

I hope this helps.

FWIW.

This looks more like an after-the-fact narrative and rationalization than an honest self-appraisal. Your message was not very "gentle". And your inclusion of the words "at least" make it look dismissive and sarcastic.

And no, I disagree, spelling is not that important. If someone gives me a heartfelt apology and spells my name wrong (especially if they're not a native English speaker), I couldn't care less.

Sitting, I think your comment to Bjorn came across quite harsh and in my opinion, was completely unnecessary.
What was your motivation? What kind of positive outcome could there have been? We are all here to help each other. I don't believe your comment was offered in the spirit of helpfulness. I believe you my have a pattern of these kind of responses. I really do hope you can see this, and can use this as an opportunity for some introspection.

I think you're missing the point.

In esoteric literature ... the inherent power within one's name is of vital importance.

Through one's name, blessings and / or curses may be directed. And it is understood that one's identity essence isn't manifested -- until one receives a name.

It's all too common to dismiss errors of this kind (with names) as simply oversights. But the real oversight is one's inattentiveness to the other person's vital energies.

These "harmless" mistakes are indicative of one's state of mind. One's true mind. This is especially important in writing apology notes.

The innate "power" (energy) of that apology -- has been sent to the wrong address. Hence not delivered ... in the eyes of the universe. (Please think through this carefully.)

This issue is far greater than the misconceived notion that I was somehow insulting a friend.

FWIW.

Here we deal first and foremost with consideration for others and honesty with the self and others. These are some of the foundational 'spiritual' qualities.

Rather than trying to figure out someone's state of mind based on a typographical error, I think it would be more productive for you to look at your own state of mind when you wrote that short, rudely-phrased interjection to Bjorn and also your state of mind in your responses to those that have said that your post came across as rude. The reason I suggest this is because your own state of mind is more accessible to you than Bjorn's state of mind.

Also, your ideas about energy being sent to the 'wrong address' because the name is misspelled don't jive with observable reality. DBZ read the message, understood it clearly as being directed to him, and therefore, de facto, "received" it fully (or in whatever way he was wont to receive it). In this case, the point is not what it means in the "eyes of the universe" but rather what the apology meant when Bjorn wrote it and whether or not DBZ accepted it. Have you considered that the "universe" cares less about spelling mistakes than the intent behind a person's words and actions? After all, a person could be meticulous in their spelling but totally disingenuous with their apology.

Sitting, it seems to me that you tend to deal too much in abstractions at the expense of hard reality.

By the way, did you notice that DBZ misspelled Bjorn's name in response to him? Are these two having an exchange using misspellings of each others names and it's all for nothing?
