Icerockethave fun reviewing good memories for however long it takes you! im sure thats good for people to do. [ Rachel is going to post up all of the pictures from most of summer tomorrow on facebook and probably tag people. ] I want to show you what I learned from tonight, im so happy with all the new things that help me explain and create these ideas i should follow through with, and i havent even explained any thoughts about being, or "not doing" to you yet. I know you can learn from yourself too, and i know you will be surprised at the experience.. i know just as well as i know im typing these words to you.. that you can experience the experiences I have from being. It is the only perspective all people can see while being in different times and in different places. Your thoughts can truly be something worth crying tears of joy created from pure belief, confidence, optimism, excitement, and mostly love.

Its interesting to read words and play with them.. to think how in terms of society, loneliness and love are polar opposite feelings (not according to the mac thesaurus' antonyms tho).. so then we must assume that regardless of what we are doing or thinking, we will always feel negatively to an extent when we try to just be. But that works according to the gnostic gospel of thomas, who says Jesus said...
"The Way of the Prophets is a trail of tears. I have commissioned you to be prophets to this generation. Consequently, they will ridicule and revile you, saying all kinds of bad things about you. What? Don't you know that they have always rejected the prophets whom I have sent among them? Yes, I tell you the truth when I say that even those who follow the prophets do not understand them, for they speak of the things of the Spirit, which cannot be apprehended by the physical mind. The prophet is alone with the Eloheim, for of all mortals, it is he who sees the reality which he cannot convey to his people. Lonely is the Way of the prophet, but if he brings one soul one step closer to Light, all his loneliness and grief is justified, for great will be his joy in the heavenly realm, and he will become a great company at the seat of the Highest"
and
"The person who stands alone will be with the Eloheim; the person who is with the Eloheim will stand alone."
and
possibly the best evidence, "The person who desires to rise above all things bust descend below all things, the way of heights passes through depths of anguish, the person who has suffered and found life is blessed"
theres like five more quotes like that with varying analogies some more inspirational than this last one which some may find frighteningly self-doubt-provoking @ http://www.thepearl.org/Sayings_of_Jesus.htm
