Thanks so much Deborah for featuring the post and for making this connection to the creative process! I definitely had my own creative endeavors in mind as one source of inspiration as I wrote this.

I have a feeling you might also resonate with a recent post I wrote about the idea of being a “Goal Artist.” If you go to http://www.wiselivingblog.com and scroll down a bit you’ll see it.

Wishing you all the best,
Tara

Comment on Finding Connection In A Complex World by Deborah Calla

Hi Paul,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Of course I do think crime of any kind is wrong. Any action that anyone takes that causes harm and pain to someone else, should be regulated by society. So robbery, rape, murder aren’t and shouldn’t be permitted. But I think believers can live next door to atheists. Gays can live next door to families. Non-traditional families can live next door to traditional families. Should Christians only marry Christians? Should Jews only marry Jews? What I am trying to say is who we are and our personal choices and points of view should be respected. You mention moral direction. Who is above everyone to set a moral direction? And what would that be based on? My thoughts, yours, the president, the neighbor? Isn’t it more compassionate to accept people’s differences and find a way to live together? Best, Deborah

So there are no absolutes, no right or wrong? Everything is permitted? If it feels good do it in the privacy of your own home? That’s why we are where we are right now. Just watch the news and count the crimes. There is no moral compass and we are trying to fill that void with whatever thing comes along no matter how corrupt it may be. It’s a vacuum of being without a moral direction.

Thank you. I think the more we pretend we are all happy and life is under control the more our lives crumble. So I’m crying, laughing, loving and screaming in public. Highly recommended.

This is a beautiful tribute to Chris Deborah. You are lucky to have experienced such tremendous love. I realize it must make it all that much harder to lose. You are so lovely to share from your heart what so many would not have the courage to do. Your blogs remind me it is o.k. to be human and vulnerable. I was brainwashed early on to wear a stiff upper lip and not show any sadness, even in the face of tragic loss. Our society seems to reward this behavior as most people are so uncomfortable with adverse feelings. It is sad to me. We should be able to cry whenever we feel like it! Just think what a better world this would be.

Comment on Learning How To Control Anger by Deborah Calla

You’re so right Melissa. Somehow we feel if we don’t get angry, worry or are in a state of fear, we are not dealing with a situation. Once we REALLY know none of these negative responses actually do anything, it becomes our “job” to help ourselves brake away from the habit. Things will get resolved much better if we apply calmness and intelligence.

Thank you for your comment. All my best,

This is so true! Thanks for posting this. I had to come to terms with my anger issues a long time ago, and have been working on them ever since. The new challenge for me is fear and worry in general. I some how managed to replace some of the rush and need for anger to feel like “things are getting done” with worry. I don’t feel like action is happening when an obstacle blocks my path in life unless I am worrying and stressing about it. So what you said here really resonates with me, but I can see how it is the same with fear and worrying. Worrying about whether something challenging will work out doesn’t actually provide more action for the situation and aid it. It’s an illusion. Stressing and worrying about the situation only causes me physical hurt and anxiety, it doesn’t actually help the situation at all.

Thanks so much for posting this! It’s very inspirational as always.

Sometimes we have to let people follow the path they have chosen. It hurts, but there is nothing we can do except be available in love for when they come back.

All my best,

Deborah

Hi Deborah

What u say is very true. I just experienced this with a friend of mine. My friend was filled with ego that her frequency just could not come to the same level as mine even though i kept forgiving her and would get back to her even after she hurt me very badly with her behaviour. Recently, she breaked all sensible behaviors and just blocked my email id!

Still i love her! Only thing is now my only medium of contact is prayer!
