Thank you for all of your replies-if you are thinking of disengaging for a bit-I'd encourage you to do so.


I decided to break my fast early, couldn't help it. I missed this forum most of all. Happily I can report that I did not once read the contentious, negative press in this period...and

of course it made a difference. In the way I felt and in the things that manifested in my sphere. I expected this. Just to give you an idea-I have lived in this, my brother's house, for 2 years. During that time, the electricity for half the place was not finished and I had no lights in any of the bedrooms. Imagine extension cords snaking all over the floors...anyway, without lifting a finger or thinking a thought, it was taken care of for me. I'm thrilled. Now, does this have anything to do with my fast? You tell me. I honestly don't know, but hey, what a coincidence!

The other phenomenon I have to report is so elementary I'm almost embarrassed to mention it but...if you raise your vibration, you have no interest in the lower vibratory realms. Der.

It's been easy to avoid the doom and gloom after disengaging for a short time. I missed the forum here because people conduct themselves in a mature and thoughtful manner, and since I live in a small community and am not acquainted with tons of individuals with the same interests as I, this forum is very valuable to me. I'd also say the tone here is more hopeful and positive than that of ATS for example...(another forum many of us frequent)

I'm going to keep it up. There was a wee bit of temptation to slide back into the speculation based on hearsay nonsense at times, reading the threads where egos clash and insults fly, for entertainment purposes, but it is losing its appeal and I'm thankful for that. Don't wanna go there any more.

To be fair, I should also mention that it was not just due to avoiding the negative, but embracing the inspiring and positive that I think helped me to let go of a longstanding resentment during this time period, and to have a much more generous attitude toward others, particularly family members having family holiday drama. I kept my cool. Actually I didn't even have to try, my cool was just there, no struggle to keep it involved. Go figure.

I read inspiring texts before bed and prayed for help. It's was as easy as falling off a log, and I wonder at why I chose to languish, or as we say around here, waller in misery, when the answer was just at my elbow, waiting to be noticed and engaged...
