Re: Relief from suffering

I tend to do the freeze response. I just hate how out of our immediate control the whole 'system' of that is. When I'm really triggered or in a bad situation i just freeze out - and i know its a response thats kept me alive before... but i do wish I were a bit more a fighter now.. much more honour in that perhaps...

What do you think about it?

Re: Relief from suffering

hello @Happyness

I like it when things are quiet too. I can only take small amounts of social life and need a lot of reflection time to process it. At first an hour per week was too much social time .. I am slowly getting better as I get more experience.

I like an occasional game of chess but am not very competitive. I only ever played games to be friendly and never really cared if I won or lost.

First, we should define the key differences between vegetarians and vegans. While there is still some debate over the full criteria of each category, it is common knowledge that vegetarians eat a plant-based diet but may also consume dairy and eggs, Paul C Albert.

Thank you for your comment Karin

Is hatred making us sick?

I'm only just learning to forgive myself

I'm only just learning to forgive others

Is the world sick because of hatred

I hope love can heal me from a world of hatred

Any comments?

To be healed from a destructive hatred inside us and around us

I hold on for love to be inside of me

I hope to contemplate love

For love to heal me

But what is love

Re: Relief from suffering

Hi happyness - so much to think about in all of your posts - feels like you're feeling a need to reach out and connect on a deeper level? I'm not entirely sure that love can be explained or understood - maybe it's something that just 'is'. And it's different for different people and each relationship we have.
I believe we can change our brains and its 'wiring' by continuing to seek new experiences and learning. We can reframe our ideas and beliefs or healing would never be possible - I have had to challenge so much of what I believed to be true about the world from how I grew up.. I also have seen how a little girl who had a stroke that damaged one side of her brain be able to recover almost completely in all ways over about a year.
Ps I don't think your posts were too much.
