Arriving on mutual ground- fast and free
I can't imagine that we are all so separate. It seems like sometimes we fight each other hard to remain divided. Why the hell does anyone care what another person believes or feel threatened by another's success? There is good in everyone. Why do we look so hard for the things that are different rather than the things that are the same... or at least look at both and hold a healthy respect for seeing the human in the other. It's weird... we try so hard to deny our emotionality and base that premise on rationality... but it's so irrational! Emotions are something that we hold in common with those who we interact with.
So, a very right-brained person tends to view what 'could be' and makes it so (in many situations). Sometimes it takes the logic and linear thinking of the left-brain to make it happen which is why, if a common ground is found these two minds work well together. Too far right, has no foothold and too far left has no sight. Coming to the middle makes it OK and desirable to say, "What if?" but to have enough sense to know the difference between a hypothesis and a fact (lol... very few facts exist but some of the more linear thinking people have to believe that they do :)... even that, is not a fact! :D ). I am still at a lack of understanding with the person who knows that we are emotional beings and knows what common weaknesses are and insists to attempt to hurt the emotional integrity of another (although, that too is only held together by a belief). Nobody can actually hurt another in this way; we can only allow ourselves to be hurt by another. That is not to say that it is desirable to be cold and immune to having your feelings hurt. It only means that this is a part of who we are... and not who the person is whose intention it is to hurt.
According to one model; magic happens because we have an effect upon our environment. According to that model, everything we do is magic... including everything that we say and everything that we think (which is a verb :D ). Our actions speak much louder than our thoughts... that's why some of us attempt to filter what comes out our mouths (or fingertips). It's all part of what kind of effect you want to have on the world or a portion of it. What you send out, certainly affects what comes back. What you think affects how you act, how you impact the world, and how you are taken in the world. We all sometimes act without thinking.... this type of acting generally comes from habit. That is why you can look at someone's actions to get a better feel of his/ her mind. You can bet that the way someone speaks to you very closely resembles the way that they view the world and themselves... and this gives a bit of a clue as to their emotionality.
Just a very quick thought.... without thinking. :) Fast, free-form typing (always the best... for a journal) :D
Walk in Beauty~~~ (it starts with a thought)
