I agree, and appreciate your comment Clclay.
All one has to do is to open up the papers, hear the news, read over many blogs here, discussions, anywhere you look there is the honest truth, or mediaìs truth about the world we live in.
Like I said, I have stories that are plenty sad to tell, who doesn't! I bet there is nobody who doesn't have one, when you are past a certain age....almost impossible to have not gone through stories of death, suffering, suicides, illness, problems and more of them. But, well, I have said it all on the "front page"...this was not the idea behind this group.
Anyhow, no problem....
must go
thanks

Actually I think that a lot of the really really scary stuff is too scary to make it to the front page and lurks in deep dark corners Steph. And your are right clay It takes a lot of strength to untangle oneself from that. I consider myself lucky that I survived some milder brushes with scary first hand- nothing I was ready to jump out of the frying pan for because brushes with scary are always a lesson...from that you become more creative, more compassionate and you learn a certain grace which I can't say I have got totally down yet.
What wonderful stories Tree, clay and Louise- no there is some grace. -

I withhold my own horror stories, just as others could also go into greater descriptive depths, so to do I.
Yet I also honor and respect my elders in this case I feel Violette Ruffley did something of kindness in her story, because she was aware of why I may leave iPeace, in order to protect it from evil... so in her posting, she addressed what I was not addressing and in leaving it with that last line, I think she was wise enough to count on my coming back here, if nothing else but to respond to it.... Rather than to bring evil to the stories, but as an act of friendship and love, willing to sacrifice a bit also of herself (considering what Stephs and others response could have been) to try and get a friend, to stay......
I think she being our elder, may be a bit wiser than most of us? ;)
And some lessons our elders teach us, as a result of there greater experiences here, may not be so easy, but they would not (I do trust in her awesome heart) teach us if not for our own good, and looking out for us...
I know with myself, in getting closer to the end of my trail of life, feel ever more strongly, its not what I do here or "get" from here that matters most,
but what I leave behind, even at times, through self sacrifice.
No less than a father who loves his son, enough to give up his life in paradise, to give him a chance he deserved, to have a life that was being denied to him, to the extent he no longer wished to live.
I did not fail in creating a way to live in peace with the earth as a human.
Nor did I fail as a father.
Almost homeless, well below poverty level, I was not a failure, but a success.
I cant live in reality through rose colored lenses.
Nor solve the problems of humanity, by ignoring them.
But after addressing them, comes that next step,
of healing, of creativity, and of love.
I know evil, but, I also know its opposite extreme.
Both, are real, even if one, is a reality, "only" made so, by the human mind.
So too then, can the other, but with a foundation,
that IS reality it is the one destined to succeed, not matter what.
Steph, may also learn too, to trust us when she is gone, to behave,
and that we are after all, here for the same cause,
peace.
And all of us here I think,
deeply treasure what peace is, in part, because most of us, have 'seen' its absence.
So we can know greater, its importance and value.
Much the same as we feel for each other here, for the same reasons.
We 'know' those of peace, through the fog and the veils, we've been there and did that, as our stories show rather clearly.
And if I have not said this recently?
I love you all, each and every one,
with all my heart, and just huge respect. -

(psstt....Tree....do you see me here....no one hears me....I am whispering......
leave ipeace to protect it from evil? hmmmmm not sure I understand completely.....
please, consider staying......I get so much good from your words...am sure others do too.....
shhhh.....no one reads this now, so you can just whisper your response back to me....gotta go...someone is coming.......)
HELLO THERE EVERYONE!!! HOW A R EYOU DOING? ME? WHISPERING, NAH, I WOULDN'T KEEP ANYTHING FROM YOU.....COME OVER TO THE OTHER PAGE....STEP THROUGH THIS DOOR......OK (Tree....shhhh...shut the door when you leave, ok?) -

Steph I just heard your whisper, I'll try and reply when I get back from CHOCOLATE (ummm,, the benefits of "civilization")...

Ok Steph, my turn to whisper (sorta hidden here in the past threads) I really dont want to address the possiblity of leaving here nor why, at least at this time and not really wanting to do so openly either.... its like, if I say something clearly that is something that is only "felt" and if I dont do it accurately then there are misconceptions, and beyond that, I would feel like I'm being (or look like it) manipulative or demanding, like 'change this or I'm leaving' and I dont like that kind of behavior even if that is not the intentions behind it, I want to avoid doing that.
And, sorry, but there is a bit of power and magic to CHOCOLATE! enough to make this man smile anyway!!!
And I got to get ready, plane tickets bought and paid for, even though there is an issue with one of them getting to her, my White Dove, could be "HOME" by 3pm tomorrow! (though the volcano is fixing to erupt again so that too, could still change these plans also). -

I hope there are many more too from you Ross, welcome to the group!
Or, what my opinion is, one of the most fantastic places on planet earth.
I may think of it as many sitting around a campfire telling our stories,
others may feel it more like a coffee table, but the idea is the same,
the more stories and story tellers the merrier, as that "us" keeps growing bigger,
brighter, and oh my gosh we still have over 14000 stories to go before Steph eases up on us! (just joking Steph!) so we can use all the help we can get here!
Thanks for joining, and sharing, and I'm hoping I can get things together well enough with my horse this year to ride him to the ocean (only 4 miles away, but its not an easy 4 miles for a horse especially with an old narrow wooden one lane bridge with automobile traffic on it).
I'm waiting for that moment, he looks at that huge huge body of water, takes his first sip, and realizes he cant drink it (I want to see what kind of a look is on his face -ALL THAT WATER?! And I cant DRINK IT?) -

Louise Thank you for your kind thoughts,
I am familiar with Rainbow Bridge as well as Motorcycle Hippie (friend of mine)
With a life of around 100 wolves in it and I have none now, that means they are all passed on....
With Woof it was not so much his passing, but how short his life was (10 yrs), and I had asked him to wait on that chain while I did what I had to do to regain my son, and that once I had made some income online (which require huge hours of work, with little/no time left for Woof) that we could then have the life I had asked him to wait for. 2 weeks before I got my programing done (for my income) he passed on.... before I could give him that life, and that was all he wanted, was to be by my side, instead of on that chain...........
It was not his passing that tore me apart, but the life he deserved, that I wanted so much to give him, that was taken from him right before I could............
He is with me now, in spirit, while many of those before him have crossed over and wait for me on the other side, he is here with me now, by my side, in spirit that is felt very much so, having what he can, of the life he wanted, by my side.
We will cross over when that day arrives, together, as we take that long journey together dancing across the skies.
In love and peace,
Your fur-end

Oh these stories are so wonderful Ross, Louise, Tree. Your words really put the reader right there, thank you. I wish that I had gone to Glastonbury when I was in Devon such a long time ago. I discovered Salcombe on the Devon coast and was touched by the hilly pastures, the cliffs overlooking the ocean and the large full moon that over hung the bay when I was there. The closest relationship that I have had with an animal has been with Cisco, who is a fiesty and sensitive giant Chihuahua that was really Claire’s dog but we have developed a bond and he talks to me. ... he also sings karaoke. Please dont wince but it is true. He talks so much and makes a good case for what ever it is he wants that I think that he ought to join the law firm that I always told my oldest and youngest to start up because of their long winded debates. Most of the time he listens to me but he has just enough of a rebel streak that I dont really trust him in most circumstances out and about with out a leash. He loves to run so much and he is very fast.
Thanks I will be back with a good story for the campfire. -

Good one Ross!
Especially since my horse at midnight last night jumped his fence, and snorting and charging went racing back and forth on the driveway, then charged out to the road running a full gallop.....
He is different than that horse though, he could charge right at me and all I would need to do was hold out my hand straight at him with my palm up like a traffic cop to stop traffic, and he would (has repeatedly) come to a screeching halt and when the dust clears, his forehead is against my palm and he is frozen like a statue.
Last night was easy though, wild 'as all get out', I just whistled and he came running, I pointed at his fence and told him to jump back inside, and he did so right on cue, then came running to me by the fence, locked up all fours, then turned for me to scratch his neck....
Me? I just went back to bed! (after patting his neck of course)
But, good timing on your story!
You've got a really nice way of painting a picture with your words! -
