In the same way we want to let our selves be guided by positivity, we know that negative energy exists. I think it may be in how we interpret it. We relate the positive enrgy as the universes approval of our actions or thoughts, and maybe we can likewise look at negative energy as the universes, or the brains disapproval of our actions or thoughts. We may choose to forgo some amount of negative energy to release a positive energy, or it may apply that doing so may not produce desired results that we thought if we would have interpreted the energy with wisdom. it may be that recognition of these facilities of ability to interpret energy, may help us find the most enlightened path, so to speak...by associating with positive energy, and disassociating with negative energy... not to say people, because each person probably has an illuminated path of their own, sos not to judge, just to guide yourself

Earth and interpreting the energy with wisdom..

I think it is reflected in disease how we traveled to this place were we, as a collective whole, and I am not just talking about us system busters here, I'm talking about the collective whole of every person on Earth, humanity.. I believe in the place where we reflect a belief in the opposite of good is bad, the opposite of positive is negative, it is my belief that this is where disease is formed. We look out and see 2 opposites male and female. we look out on the Earth the balance of positive and negative, 2 opposites that work togeher to create a balanced whole. We see the opposites of night and day, also creating a balanced whole.. and look at the trees, their roots grow within the deep dark soil, while the trunk branches and leaves grow in the opposite place, in the light...
Myself I believe we accidently created this fear based belief that so many follow in opposites means one is right and one is wrong, one is good and one is bad, one is possitive and one is negative...
the Earth tells me different..
the Earth tells me it is our dis-ease that creates negative as a bad energy... whereas negative and positive in a balanced whole would look something like a man and woman working in harmony together... or like land and water...
I enjoy looking at it this way..
makes life feel like a dance..
though I must admit I am guilty of being a part of the other reflection, the one with disease..... sometimes I have been known to express that 'man' is the lesser.... so in looking to the Earth I feel like there is an example of how it is supposed to look.. balanced whole..I find it comforting to look to the Earth for the answers on how to walk.. and think..
(and thanks for sharing the picture.. so awesome)

here we are inside the dance of our creation.

i too see opposing forces
but rather than thinking of them as opposites
i consider it like two magnetic ends that usually push away from each other
reversing polarities and clicking together to make a circle

i think that Dancing Buddahs post about rome kind of makes some distinctions about the possibilities of how we got where we are now n society

I'm glad to hear the grandma thread being woven into conversations. Grandma was always the one who helped me achieve what I needed when I needed it. Even tho' she rapped my knuckles with a fierce ruler sometimes too.
What is negativity? - it doesn't really exist.

What is positivity but the focus on what we wish to be. What is negativity but a focus on what we do not wish to be. Put these two together and you get twice the force for change. Figure or ground? Some people can only see one at a time but some of us can happily switch rapidly between them and get the bigger picture, see how the negative can be transformed into the positive, see opportunities. In reality there is no dichotomy, thinking holistically. Energy flows everywhere, todays negative can be tomorrows positive depending on context. Its all about context that defines energy as being positive or negative. So long as the result is what we want then does it matter whether we achieved the position by running away from there or by being attracted to here? But see the bigger picture, work with the contexts in an enlightened way and you begin to realise that it is the journey that matters and not where you started or where you finished.

i have been considering how these bodies and minds are shaped by its own needs, desires, & unknowns...simply, we shape ourselves to attract what we gravitate towards???
