We cannot always "shine"

Are these ”happy” assemblies, which many networks represent a risk for exclusion?

Yes… I think so. What happens, for example when a sadly past catch up with you or you suffer serious illness or grief?
Are you staying here than? To say what? I see no forum for them since the theory doesn’t exist. The theory of people in pain.
No since the theory is that we are all chosen our own happiness and by thinking in the right way, whatever happens we will stay happy and feeling blessed. But already on my short time on these networks I have met many who belonged to those who wanted to “shine” and did so and also non egotistically shared their belief with others.

That’s beautiful. But when the “Sorrow” trip a person up, and they cannot shine they stop writing. Many have send me letters so I know that. Now when they are needed us the most they do not stay so we can comfort them. That’s just too sad. I do feel for all these that thought that there only mission in life was to share the light and when they got caught by the shadows they feel ashamed instead of asking for our help. We do not even notice they are gone. New ”believers” will come and replace them.

This is the weakest link in the "shine and light" theory or shall I say religion. There is no place for sadness and sorrow. So that means when your light is gone you have to go too. Make me cry but also frustrated. As long as their spiritual battery keeps them shining they will be here but when it is spent they have to face their own darkness without a ray of light from us, the others.

Many people ought to use their own light to lighten up there own dark shadows instead of getting burned out by giving away ”borrowed ” rays of light. That doest benefit the peace in the world.

No... we must accept that there are dark periods in our lives and we must create space for these feelings so we who still has some energy in our batteries can shine for them who need it the most.
These Networks are not a church where we have to say ”Amen”. These fantastic opportunities to come together so many people must allow us to have different opinions and place for everyone. To learn understanding and broaden our horizons That will make us grow.
It must be ”high ceilings” in any ”faith” who want to survive.

We must search to enclose all not exclude. By making people understand that it is OK, as in this case, to stay in a shiny and brightening ”world” even if your own personal life is a hell.

We do understand. Or don’t we?

I have made this group for all of us who are working for a good purpose.; The peace
But dare to admit that life can be a terrible mess where we need the light of others because our own batteries are exhausted. and that is OK. We do not have to leave this "world" we just need ears to listen and eyes that can see.
After all we are just human *smile*

So welcome to the imperfect group that I am proud to belong to *smile*
