Love, continued.

[candid]

I?ll be transparent (more than just candid) here a moment. Feeling safe among friends.

It?s a Saturday morning, and there?s time to feel lonely. I must be in a romantic cycle. Picked up a nice Cabernet Sauvignon yesterday while at the store, and I don?t even drink wine.

Now with phantom cupids swirling, I asked Yi, ?What About Love and Me?

54.2 to 51

Please tell me what you see. I don?t see anyone there to love, do you? A perverted monk, at best. Thank God for humor. And friends.

If you see something other, please let me know.

Good morning C http://www.onlineclarity.co.uk/I_Ching_community/clipart/happy.gif

Or is it ?Ambivalent of Arizona? ;)

My take on the line is that you need to step back and consider things more widely?

Then comes the personal earthquake of change.

Sounds good to me.

(Good to see the Yi stayed on topic http://www.onlineclarity.co.uk/I_Ching_community/clipart/happy.gif )

From the other monk ;)

Hi Ambi... er, Candid! ;-)

Someone here was saying recently something to the effect that a shift in one's attitude makes a difference in what hexagrams one might receive, and we already know that one's attitude makes a huge difference in how others react to us...

I have risked reproof from Yi from time to time by trying out different attitudes and seeing the results. It has been very helpful to me.

(can you tell how my brain works? I can't remember facts, but let me get the jist of something and I'm a pit-bull)

As for lonely, yes, that's very tough. Consider, you are here now, for each of us, and you have many lovely, loving, strong and intelligent friends present to you.

Please give Mojo a hug from me, (and you may share half of it...) cuz sometimes we need our love delivered by someone with skin on, and these wires are too long for my arms to reach through.

Rinda, cleric of clear creek ...

Very perceptive, Kevin. Not surprised of course. Ambivalent is a much better word.

I didn't consider your meaning, but I will.

My own picture was graphic and specific. I then looked up LiSe's rendition, and it matched my own vision to a T.

I've had 32 years together with someone special. Eventually big problems, big pitfalls. But we 'were' always together. Maybe there's only so many days allotted to someone to be with someone else.

Awe hell,
Cleric O' Clear Creek is right!

Im sending hugs to Mojo too http://www.onlineclarity.co.uk/I_Ching_community/clipart/happy.gif

Candid - I think you're great and give much to others in wonderfull ways.

I hope you find that love... if you want it.

Dear Cleric,

That's a fascinating point to consider! Inner resistance or restriction narrows the field of view, and response. And that also touches on what Kevin said about stepping back and considering more widely.

Mojo's sleeping, up howling at the moon last night. Guess I'm not the only one. But I'll deliver your hug once he's up. (You know, in secret, I only got him cuz I heard dog's are chick magnets.)

[candid]

OK, trying to open my mind and field of view, taking both Kevin's and Cleric's council, and I asked:

Are they right? Do I need to change my perspective to receive an answer more conducive and receptive to love in my life?

7.6 to 4. (got to love it)

For what its worth, I've received 44 and 57 earlier this week around the same subject. All three of these hexagrams speak of 'issuing commands.'

PS

Brad's Matrix is very interesting on 54.2

[candid]

Issuing commands:

Its like a merry-go-round I've ridden already. That's the truth of it. I see others come together and part. I know its no picnic. The emotional upheaval it creates. People chase it like their last breath.

If you're young enough, or needy, go for it. It seems there's a time though to leave behind the painted ponies, and not look back.

Not so ambivalent. Its my choice afterall.

Thank you, sincerely. http://www.onlineclarity.co.uk/I_Ching_community/clipart/happy.gif

Dear Candid

Following the openness of your open hearted thread?

Though I can meet and share love with others (as per friends brief and lasting)? the kind which leads to marriage? well I think I used it up once before in an 18 year relationship with a wonderful woman.

And yes, at times I am lonely?

Am I selfish?? unable to give out because of some diminished spirit? Well, perhaps at times.

Maybe unsuitable for those who seek a partner?

I think these things at times.

And yet I have the freedom to be the who I am and to give freely of my time and efforts to those who might want them.

I am not so ambivalent, but doubting of my facility to repeat that path? maybe that time has passed for me.

Or maybe not so ambivalent - it is "My path afterall"

[candid]

Kevin, distance divides us none.

I've been really noisy here lately. Time to lay back awhile.
