Heya runstrails, long time no speak, how have you been?

Alkaline Trio - Bleeder (Lyrics): http://youtu.be/I2Pyj7xxtFk

Was driving to work the other day and the intro to this song reminded me of the experience, good punk rock song too

Hi I've not been around a lot lately, think it's because I've been kinda depressed and withdrawn for the past couple of years Anyway recently I had an intense experience that forced me back towards waking the hell up so thought it was worth sharing. It's a bit long and rambling because it was writte...

Psychodynamics explains it all, and it's absolutely a wonderful addendum to complement Tolle's material that everyone should take a glance at :) (really!). Your whole post was fascinating, any recommendations for someone who wants to read more about psychodynamics (preferably online or in an ebook) ?

That was such a beautiful reply. I never realized saving the world was my "trip". Does that mean I'm enlightened? lol

I think you already know the answer to that

Peace

They don't become more loving, caring, compassionate? It is a perception shift You no longer see yourself as a separate chunk from the rest of the universe I am Jack's big toe Instead you see yourself as a integrated part of the universe Jack and the universe are part of the same body Ask yourself ...

I'm quite overwhelmed by the support and insight provided by everyone It's a humbling experience to find so much natural light in these far flung corners of t'internet Some very helpful reminders Love is the answer, always, I have never seen where this has not been true. Embrace it all, don't throw ...

Thanks, that made a lot of sense

I think I've been in this job too long (more than 2 years now, which is a personal record), it feels like it's time to move on

If you ever decide to write some poetry about fluffy happy land, let me know, it sounds magical

We come home, it's been long day, I'm wound up and in pain It provides relief not only from the physical pain, but also the tension accumulated over the day from not living up to expectations Tasks that were set during the day and should have been easy but turned out to be rather difficult for unexp...

Hi there Root

I've been there too, and found this video by Adyashanti explains wanting better and in more depth than I ever could:

It's about an hour long but is well worth checking out when you're feeling like a ball trying to roll your way uphill

Peace

This was actually a lot of help. Thanks for sharing. Glad it helped Based on what you said in your above post, it doesn't sound like it's just you that's unhappy at your current workplace You mentioned that all the other service advisers are stressed, unhappy, upset and that your boss occasionally ...

Hi there Mickey Not sure if I'm the best person to give advice but at work I fix stuff all day long (evenings and weekends too) and people keep coming back specifically asking for me cos they say I get things done where others dont/can't (I don't think that's particularly fair though considering dif...

Thanks for the helpful reply spikyface (I can't help picturing you with a spiky face!) Taking practical steps to find a partner does feel like something I want to do, so your comments helped. Yet at the same time, I question my motivations. I recently ended a 2-year relationship that wasn't the rig...

There is a feeling inside of loneliness that is real. I think I am just venting more than anything at this stage, but hopefully this either helps someone, or someone can help me! If you were hungry you would find something to eat right? So logically since you're lonely why not try to take some prac...

You only need this moment to see your true nature at centre... It's so so simple people overlook it. Firstly, the only people I've met who suggest that have typically spent years reading dozens of texts and have already internalised the concepts Then when the "a-ha!" moment happens they ascribe all...
