I think it’s sad when we’re too scared to be who we really are.
I’ve been there. And the self betrayal hurts.
When the Reality we’ve been appearing to live, is just an appearance, it always vanishes in time. BECAUSE it is not Real.
I found it far more Loving to be who I am and live a reality that’s real.
While placing responsibility of responses to me, being me, squarely upon other people’s shoulders who respond.
Of course, I’m coming from a reality where substance of character is all that counts. Where it doesn’t matter if I’m “right”. It only matters how I respond to what I qualify as “wrong”.
Am I Understanding? Am I Accepting? Am I Tolerant? Am I Compassionate?
or Am I Condemning? Am I Rejecting?
I don’t happen to see anything ‘wrong’ with prostitutes.
It’s lack of Integrity of Being that submarines our false realities every time. Being ‘good’ or ‘right’ doesn’t count as much as being ‘real’ and ‘genuine’.
The more Real we are, the more Power over Reality we enjoy.
The more unreal we are, the more we live in fear of being found out.

((( Sue Ann ))) HELLO!!!
I’ve re-entered blogland this past week..how are you? (silly question..you are DIVINE!!! 
..)
It’s weird how the collective consciousness can taint things, isn’t it? I don’t think I have a problem with “prostitution” so much, as with the bottom-feeders that take advantage. If a woman chose to become a prostitute out of DESIRE, rather than SCARECITY or LACK, I could support something like that.
Our bodies are ours to do with as we wish – as long as we don’t hurt others (that’s my own personal moral code, I know, rather than a universal law). If we want to engage in a little free trade, why does Big Brother have to get involved?
On the other hand, my heart breaks for those women who really don’t want to sell their bodies, but have to (for whatever reasons they’ve decided on).

Not sure where you are going here, you gave us, in my view, a quick perspective on some deep thoughts, or is that evolution that they remain surface? Hmmmmm….she says.
I see nothing wrong either Sue. I do though have issues when prostitution of any sort: mental manipulation, sex, crimes, just sheer meanness, oppression and subjugation of victims, occurs. I do, because there is a suggestion that someone with more power, the ability to make a choice from the heart does not. I believe sometimes the Divine puts in our paths situations where we can choose better, i.e. person given the chance to pay for another’s time for physical needs, person sees that the one being offered is without choice, either by age, mental condition, circumstance, etc. Person choices only from a selfish perspective. To me, bang, alarms go off and I think: there is something wrong here. An opportunity was just presented to elevate not only oneself but someone across our path….
Well, you got me thinking and talking..I have taken enough space!
Peace to you, and healing on a magnificent level. Stand within the sunbeams breaking through the clouds.

Spitzer.
As I hear the story, he’s in trouble for transferring funds across state lines to engage in illegal activities. He hired a hooker. Several times.
Big deal.
And if it wasn’t for the fact that he’s crowed loudly about being opposed to such things to support his political career, who’d care?
Like, who cared if Monica spit or swallowed?
When we’re in a relationship based on conditional love, then we’re prostituting ourselves, whether male or female. If affection is only given upon condition, then there’s bartering going on and whenever there is bartering with affection, there is prostitution.
{{Grace}}} Welcome back! As you say, I am Divine. I am Divinely getting moved into another house at the moment. A house which isn’t quite finished.Stuff goes into cabinets just as soon as the cabinets are built. And for the very 1st time, my computer is in an ‘office’. I have some privacy while I write instead of being in the middle of everything else going on behind me.
You speak of free choice and consent. Sis, that’s what the word “moral” means. It means that which is chosen. And there is NO Universal Law pertaining to sexuality, other then what we choose to create we will experience.
{{SE}}Bless your Heart, Thank you for the well wishes. Now that I’m back in the forests, I am taking walks. They certainly aren’t long ones but I’m exercising. Yesterday I followed a critter trail deep into the woods and stumbled across an area that could possibly be made into another building site. And NEVER should you imagine you have shared or written too much. You hear me? (smiling)
I hear what you’re saying in regards to making choices that we feel trapped into making. But how is a woman working as a prostitute and a man working as a laborer any different? Or how about the automaton standing at the end of the conveyor belt at Walmart?
I’m saying it’s our entire social system that’s rotten down to its very core. The social system based on love upon condition.
{{SE}} I know the subject of Justice is one close to your Heart. What happens if it is viewed as a function of cause and effect, instead of as a set of rules upholding taboos?
What ever happened to the good ole’ days when there were temple whores? Priestesses expressing nurturing?
There is a virus at work here. A virus in consciousness, a virus in thought and belief. And it is the presence and workings of this virus that is the sole cause of all our issues involving sexuality.
I know it’s hard. However, rather then ‘victim’, ASK to perceive the relationships of cause and effect. If we have little love for ourselves, because we have failed to meet a bunch of conditions, then this lacking and judging attitude, will be reflected to us and played out in all the relationships we have with our World and others in it.
March 13th, 2008 - 11:31 am
All I can do… nod my head in agreement. Being REAL. Wonderful!!!
March 13th, 2008 - 1:09 pm
Hello {{fox}}!!!!!
Being Real…it really IS an incredible experience.
Believe it or not, I’m REAL. What I share, what I express, is the Real me. I’m even more POTENT in person.
There is POWER in being real. POWER we just don’t have and can’t access when we’re not.
I used to think of Power in terms of manipulating appearances…just like Spitzer has been doing.
But take a good look at it. Being Real, my Reality is not based upon what other people think about me or how other people feel about me. I am a Sovereign Creator over my realities, both inner and outer. I am Self nurturing in my beliefs and attitudes, so I’m not emotionally dependent upon anything outside of myself. I am FREE to be Real, because I’m not looking to get anything from anyone else.
Spitzer’s reality, however, is totally based on what other people think and is about as insecure as any of us could possibly get. His whole house of cards came crashing down.
Just like I said was going to start happening to all our realties that did not have any inner substance of character backing it up. Um errr….how many of us who own homes, consider our home, as anything related to our worth? As in, are we depending upon living in a nice house in order to feel worthy? Could we feel just as worthy of a person living in a cardboard box or a trailer?
I ask these questions, simply to give indications of what is the cause behind a lot of the changes occurring. The ‘outside’ is changing to reflect our ‘insides’.
March 13th, 2008 - 5:09 pm
Intrigued by many points, I force myself (to start!), to ask just this one:
{{SE}} I know the subject of Justice is one close to your Heart. What happens if it is viewed as a function of cause and effect, instead of as a set of rules upholding taboos?
More please? Can you spin out for me what you mean by justice as a function of cause and effect?
March 14th, 2008 - 9:21 am
I don’t have a problem with prostitution either and The Velveteen Rabbit has always been a favorite
Have a great weekend
March 14th, 2008 - 11:59 am
Oh Thank You Kris!
{{hugs}}
I hadn’t ever connected it with the velveteen rabbit!
that book has always made me smile contemplating. You see, I’ve never read it.
But you know what? I think that’s exactly what I’m going to go enjoy doing.
Again, thank you.

Hi Sue and Everyone. I dunno i go off for a few months to sort my life out and come back to find it all mapped out on this thread ! Talk about surfing the wave from different ends ! Sue i missed you but i had to “do it ” on my own to prove all this self creation stuff to myself ! I accepted the bit of me the transformer and my word it set off a chain reaction. People actually listen to me now !
I got housed in a cellar with a studio attached ! I started writing Music and the band is doing really well and im so glad you are better ! Hey all of you, i know im preaching to the choir but i love this lady ! She told me it was ok to be me and dog gone if i dint go and take it to heart ! Scared as i was !
I learned to Love those reflections of me coming back to me in everyone else. Sue Ann you gave me the spiritual kick up the butt i needed. AND YOU GAVE OF YOURSELF FOR NOTHING TO A STRANGER . I followed the path into the rabbit hole and there were many others there to show me too.
Abundance ! Im swimming in it now ! I just had another big shift last night from my solar plexus . I did some transforming work with a housemate and he went there and shifted and i felt the whole of reality change from inside me out !
I am then just shaking and twitching from having holy cleansing spirit water pour through me when a whole myriad of beings fill my room and say Welcome to the Council of elders ( im only 38 ! ). “How what where ” i said and was told that i had made the grade and i said into what ? I did not accept yet cos i need more info. What is going on ! some sort of contact. Im not afraid but i am being cautious ! Discerment has been a tough lesson for me so im not jumping in without testing the water first !
Sue Ann i bow in the humbles respect > Iknow it can be a thankless task so i wanted to spread some love.. little vibes Here little vibes there … Ah lovely . oh and you reading this have some too. There thats better dont feel like an overcharged battery so much now… OOh these energy upgrades make you so full of energy ..
Peace DEan

To Surface Earth
The universe is just
Person took something,
Person he-she took it from lost a material item
Person who took it lost everything
For this person has to hide and lie arround every corner of his life. Once the lie is told, it manifests and festers into something so out of control that this person forgot that he was the one solely responsible for haveing a crappy life. He then goes on to blame others for his misery only to experience even more misery. He can never have peace,love,joy,acceptance,tollerance etc etc
He is really the one that needs help.
For he lost everything.
If he stole food for survival
then he would say I was hungry
He would have no guilt,just surviving.
He would no doubt get the help he needs and it
would come pouring in from places he would least expect it.

Greetings {{Dean}}…
I know it has taken me a few days but I hadn’t forgotten about {{you}}.
I bow my head In Gratitude and recognition of the Honor you extend to me. And convey that everything was all your own doing…
I offered an alternative perspective and guided “to your own heart be true”. YOU are the one that chose to change your own mind and the way you thought about yourself. You’re more accepting and embracing of your own self now and…the world is mirroring this back. You’re listening yo what your own heart is telling you and…the world is reflecting this Respect back.
All I did was attempt to say “hi!” to what I considered to be the Real you. And delivered the message that is was “ok” to come out and play.
Yes, I *missed* you, too, however, I would send out my ‘feelers’ now and then and sense things moving in your life, the excitement and wonder of self discovery and would *know*…
It would bring a smile to my face.
I am *not* a ‘guru’. SMILING. Creating a “following” and inspiring “empowerment” just don’t fit. Can’t be lived in any kind of Integrity at least.
The issue is that of authority. And it all becomes clear the moment I illuminate the word “author” in it. Preachers wants to be the authors of other people’s lives. And Teachers endeavor to convey, to those of us who desire to know, how we are all authors of our own lives.
I’m saying: Be True to your OWN Heart. Do NOT surrender the Authority over your own Kingdoms of Heart and Mind.
I *knew*. But the only way you could *know* too, was on your own. So then it could be your *knowing*. A *knowing* so intimate and secure, you no longer look to the agreement of the world to support you or validate you in that *belief*. You’ve gone beyond *belief* into *knowing*.
{{{hugs}}}
Good to hear from you!!!!!
April 12th, 2008 - 12:51 pm

I did post on the link you shared and quite frankly, the person’s head running that blog is stuck in emotional self indulgence…her belief in victimization will retard her growth and expansion in consciousness for as long as she chooses to maintain it. She’s flying blind in other words, and as far as her comments have gone, desires to stay there.

Hi SueIts been a while and i hope you are recovered. I have not had time as yet to catch up with the posts but i see you are working your majic pushing back the frontiers of enlightenment by empowering others to empower themselves.
Wow what a year its been ! I met a beautiful woman found a dream house and dream working conditions. I float and glide with ease these days. Im so happy and in love . I look forward to coming home every day. Meanwhile global meltdown seems to pass me by. Im getting the hand of it and im still working on me loving me and finding those parts in the reflections of others that i need to love. Though i consider this to be tidying up work rather than reconstruction these days !
How are You dear Sue on this solstice ( just ) and your family ? . I have been doing it on my own as you say . I have been confronted with the bit i most disliked about myself which i had carefully hidden away from myself and boy did it hit me hard. All those years i secretly hated a part of me for something i did as a child. Its taken me months to keep at it and find my way through it again. During that time though all the other gains i made stayed intact and were not ruined by the issue i was working on , which is a first for me ! usually issues feed into others and amplify them.
I did however forget all i was taught by you and others on a conscious level . Its that i wanted to talk about really. How one issue takes you into a part of who you are that does not have the skills learned in other areas. Its as though i had to forget that i had met you and had training. I forgot that i could forgive myself and after a while of beating myself up i suddenl;y remebered but not after i had firmly revisted a hell created by me in my own childhood. When i did realise i could forgive it was like this part of me just jumped into me from 2 or three meters outside of me.
That was the part of me that needed acceptance by me and forgiveness. Once i did the forgiving the knowing came back and i was reminded today whilst searching for an invoice that you were here and i saw the reply you left me in april that i had not been able to see until today ! It made me realise that even with such a lost part of me clouding my vision that i could find my way back to myself with love in any circumstance even with the blinds down !
So i want to say relax and forgive and love yourself people no one judges you except you and the universe has asked me to pass on that message… You are not judged by god or allah or any version of the all that is you can think of because you are infinite and have all the creation existance experience forever within you to use and expand into.. the universe is love mirrored back to you by your expectation of it.. even if you consider those reflections to be bad from the perspective you are in at the moment underneath it you are infinite and infinitely loved and it is but your own expectation that creates what you see in the mirror of other you around you. You are not judged Love is and has no need to judge only to love. As the universe has said to me personally there is only one of us Dean and i love you all…
Merry Christmas one and all and a big Hug and warm love to you again Sue as ever.. Im Glad to be home….

HELLO there!!! {{Dear}}}
I rec’d your email from Facebook. Alas, I’m not on Facebook and don’t plan on being there for now, so it is sheer PLEASURE to hear from you *here*.
As I have said to many, the time has come for “the 1st to be last and the last, 1st.” As the bottom is falling out of some of our realities, it is swelling under others. The universe maintains balance at all times.
It brings me smiles to hear of how loving your life has turned out to be!
As for me, I’m doing GREAT! I am walking farther and farther every day (so long as it is not snowing or sleeting that is), leaving the pain of my past behind me. Totally.
I haven’t been ‘blogging’ very much at all over the past couple of months for I am “up to something’ else… My blog will continue of course, and I am always checking on it. I am simply working ‘behind the scenes’ for now, in constructing a website.
A website dedicated to *teaching* the not-so-secret anymore, ’secret mysteries’.
There is a veritable dirge of *teachers* qualified to *teach*, quite frankly, for ONLY someone who IS Enlightened, has the ~power~ to enlighten.
I’ll share a *hint* with you now…
A year ago, I started writing & sharing what I have come to call my ‘hercules’ series. The WHOLE series is coming online. For it is also time for me to receive, as I have been doing what I have been doing for over 20 years without receiving a penny for any of it.
And it is time I opened to receive.
The tide has turned and the flow is now going in a *new* direction. Our old definitions of ~power~ are no longer valid and visionaries are now taking over leadership positions.
Merry Christ-mass and hugs to you, too! For *this* is the year of Christ Mass, as those of us who have already Integrated that level of Awareness, step up to leadership positions in order to lead all of us through this transition.
Be of good cheer and unconcerned about how much you may retain of my or anyone else’s teachings. We’re all that way. Like when we were little and 1st beginning to walk, we would toddle and stumble. But after so long practicing, we become experienced and learn how to walk without falling, eventually running without even thinking.
It’s takes time and experience to replace one habit with another. Our very thought patterns are rewired and these in turn, effect everything else. Our bones, our nervous system, our circulatory system,etc. (wink) It is actually the amount of ~spiritual~ energy I have been steadily anchoring and integrating, that has been the cause behind my physical challenges.
~rolling my eyes~ I never have been one for Patience and I created an accelerated course for myself.
{{{{hugs}}}}

Very true, being real and true to our self is what it is all about, other wise we do live in fear. Very good thoughts.
