I've...Hi Mary rose,thank you for your response. I've only just seen it now. Yes,there has been gossip that has hurt me,in the past and also very recently..so very timely coming across this again. And there are people around me who behave in the manner you've expressed. It bothers me alot,and i'm trying to work on it..to uncover why it affects me as deeply as it does..and too find healing there. I look forward to reading your blog on the subject,if i've missed it could you please share a link here. Thank you for your time, and your thoughtful kind response.arinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6912321843321447366.post-51403615264272343502012-10-16T16:04:06.923-04:002012-10-16T16:04:06.923-04:00Ari,
We don't name the people we talk about ...Ari, <br /><br />We don't name the people we talk about for a reason. Because the issues presented exist in everyone and we can all see ourselves in the story. <br /><br />In the sacred Circle ways, we are taught that we not separate, we all learn from the lessons of others. It is up to to all who hear these stories to look at themselves and see if this is an issue they need to address, or not.<br /><br />We are all human and all share the same issues, stories and need for healing. If it bothers you to have someone talked about, then there is something for you to look at and heal. <br /><br />Was there gossip that hurt you in your life? Are there people around you who talk about others just to put them down, to make themselves feel better, to hurt? <br /><br />We don't do that here. We use examples for us all to learn and heal from the experiences of others. We all take turns being talked about. Yes it is humbling, but the ego needs to be humbled. Instead of just reacting, look at what it brings up for you and do the healing work on this topic. <br /><br />I am sure that there are many others that have been the brunt of dysfunctional hurtful gossip. I will do a blog on it in the future. It is a big theme. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07299877776069389696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6912321843321447366.post-6601074943877245402012-05-03T00:39:14.710-04:002012-05-03T00:39:14.710-04:00I came in today and read this entry.

By pointing out the behaviors publicly it allows for everyone to benefit from the teachings.<br />There is no such thing as a behavior - we do not share in common...<br /><br />LISALisa F.

I like this...
'... You have to be r...Hello, <br /><br />I like this...<br /><br />'... You have to be ready for the consequences, willing to hear the truth and willing to do the work required of you when your imbalance, dysfunctions, illusions and ego are pointed out to you. ...'<br /><br /> there's a certain comfort in this truth.. even though there's a deep pain that surfaces when these truths are told, once it's brought into the open like this it does create the space to then begin healing. Life and how we inter-relate with each other would be so much simpler if we could all learn to live and accept like this. the thought of this way becoming more common brings hope.<br /><br />In reading this post, questions i haven't voiced/or been unable to put into words have been answered. Thank You for sharing, i've enjoyed reading.<br /><br />I do find this disturbing...<br /><br />'... I remember one time that Lisa was sitting alone quietly during a break and a woman went to talk to her. Later Lisa told us later that the woman had nothing to say, she just wanted attention of the Shaman for no particular reason. ... '<br /><br />Was the woman present when this was being said about her?<br /><br />I'm comfortable with these things being related to others in it being a story to teach something in a situation where those listening don't know the person being spoken about. i feel extremely uncomfortable in situations where those being spoken to know the person (are aware of who this person is). In those situations it just doesn't feel right, to me, to hear someone you know of being spoken about in this way, without them being present to hear it. Actually..thinking about it now, it raises a deep discomfort in me to hear groups of people discussing something about someone they know, even when i don't know that person.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
