@fopylo Don'tknow exactly what you're going through, and I'm no expert or anything... Just wanted to point to one thing:get out of your head (thinking) and into feeling. Doesn't matter what anything means. It matters how you feel - right now.

In moments like that, it doesn't really matter what you do, just get up and start doing something. Walk, dance, do some yoga or anything that will ground you into your body. Keep bringing your awareness back to sensation and breathing. Find interest in something. Anything. Express emotions, don't suppress. Cry, yell, scream, kick and punch things - whatever you can do to let it all out. If you can, write or create some sort of art.

It is really not about picking sides or anything for me... Joining this community is somewhat of a 'fresh start'. It just seems right/relevant for now. Never was a hardcore follower of Leo's, and I expressed my disagreements many times, from day one on actualized.org. I did enjoy using the platform, and I still might say a thing or two over there, but to me it always seemed like actualized.org lacked heart and warmth. Too much mind-fuckery, confusion and delusion. It was tricky to navigate at times and I ended up falling into a few major traps - which is, of course, all part of the journey. So again, I am grateful for the ride and the lessons, but it's not really 'my cup of tea'. Curious to test these new waters.

Appreciating these awesome melodies and rhythms that are coming through 🤘

Unless you can help directly and feed a starving child: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace.

Breathe in, breathe out, and repeat these words in your mind: 'May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace.' I find it to be an extremely powerful practice. In your darkest hour of despair and devastation: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace. In your brightest moments of joy and celebration: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace. When you are facing your deepest fears: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace. When you are taken over by anger, or drowning in sadness: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace. When you are confused, uncertain and lost: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace. When someone wrongs you, betrays or takes advantage of you: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace. When you are sick, when you are healthy, when you are witnessing a war, when you find safety: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace. No matter what you are facing or going through: May everyone be healthy. May everyone be at peace.

Nice! 'Keep it simple' indeed 🙂

Hell yeah 🤘

@Faith ❤ Definitely felt holy haha!

Sat down on a bench by the sea to breathe and absorb some sunlight. My mind was kinda stuck in the past, was feeling a bit down and anxious. Then, a beautiful dark gray, almost black pigeon landed right next to me. It looked quite different and unique in comparison to other pigeons nearby. I soon noticed it was missing two fingers, and that hit real deep. Here I am, thinking about something that's not even here, feeling weak and lost... and there's this pigeon, actually missing a part of his body, flying around carefree, fully immersed in the moment. It was not afraid of me, not at all. It stood barely a few inches away. We locked eyes a few times. It was truly divine. It totally seemed like this pigeon came specifically to me, to deliver a message. And the message was received. It brought a few tears to my eyes. The pigeon flew away and I walked back home with a smile on my face, breathing freely. Animals are so cool. Btw, great thread @Mandy ! Much love.

@Joseph Maynor ❤️

@Joseph Maynor Thanks man. Good to see you here. I remember being kind of an asshole towards you a few times back then, apologies for that. All the best. @fopylo PM 😉

@fopylo Yup. I also often use a made up language.

@fopylo Hey there. Glad to hear that. I don't really have a formula or anything... I just write what comes to mind in the moment. It's best if it's coming from the heart. Then it flows very naturally. I used to aim for everything to rhyme, but I soon discovered that was actually quite limiting. So it's not really a must. If it happens - great. But what really matters is expression.

Thanks everyone! Bless you all!

Happy to be here ❤ Thanks to @lxlichael for the invitation 🙏
