Defence is the first act of war
by miramaze
@ Saturday, 27. Sep, 2008 - 15:25:40
Defence is the first act of war. If you tell me that I'm mean , rejecting , hard , unkind, unfair, I say , " Thank you , sweetheart, I can find all these things in my life. I have been everything you say, and more. Tell me everything you see , and together we can help me understand. Through you , I come to know myself. Without you , how can I know the places in me that are unkind and invisible ? You bring me to myself. So , sweetheart , look into my eyes and tell me again.I want you to give me everything ."
From : I need your love - is that true ? by Byron Katie
We are mirrors for each other.

Revisiting the past
by miramaze
@ Saturday, 27. Sep, 2008 - 13:09:52
Visiting the past with the strength we have in the present allows us to work through our history in a much healthier and neutral way. Because the past can bring up so many strong emotions, it is easy for us to get weighed down by the things that happened or the decisions we made. Going back with the knowledge we have right now, however, lets us replay things differently, often seeing that there were many more things happening than we imagined at the time. As you look on your past with new eyes today, you will gain greater insights about your life patterns.
Good idea 
Take " the responsisble wise adult " to meet " the vulnerable confused child"

Criticism can be a gift
by miramaze

Have you ever considered the fact that criticism from others can be a gift ?
Feeling the slightest urge to defend yourself means that there is something that you don't accept and love about yourself.
What's the worst thing that someone might say about you ?
Is there any truth in that ?
Could there be ?
" you don't care , you are caring , uninterested, cold , agressive, stubborn , etc etc ......."
Instead of defending yourself and whacking them one you could pause and ask yourself :
" Is it true ? "
" could they be right ?"
" Can I see how someoone might see me that way ?"
" Can I find the 'cruel' 'stubborn' 'heartless' 'aggressive' 'arogant' sides in me ?
After a while of sincere and honest pondering you could reply or say to yourself :
" Thank you for letting me know that . You could be right ."
When you no longer put your energy into seeking approval , you can open your mind and see it as a gift. When you are honest and humble there is no way that criticism can hurt you.
Criticism can be a gift. It does not have to be constructive , either. In fact , with the right attitude the more destructive the better 
Bring it on , baby ! Thinking this way almost makes me look forward to criticism in order to practice these things and find out stuff about myself while I'm at it . I find this an exciting thought. Don't you ? 
All this before breakfast

!2:40 and I am about to have breakfast.
Morning spent on the phone listening to a friend who simply needed to ventilate her frustration and overwhelm; a dysfunctional relationships and things connected to arranging her father's funeral.
Heard from Lina that her grandmother , Meets passed away peacefully in her sleep, 11:30 am yesterday. Bless her soul with eternal peace , love and light. Meets is Home. Oddly enough I don't feel sadness any more , just deep love and peace and compassion for Lina and Maarja. Lina has lost a Grandmother and Maarja her Mother. Separation and loss are so painful.I shall miss Meets, but I am so grateful to have known her.
In other news, I've been invited out to dinner tonight.
And now , before anything else .. breakfast. TTFN.. read you later xx
