Thanks again for everyone for posting and voting.
It really was a tremendous response.
I agree that these facets are connected and we can transmute one through the other. Internal changes bring about a change in our external reactions and external forces can affect our internal balance.
Great. Everyone seems to agree this, whilst tending towards one, or the other, balancing the two or doing one to learn the other.
What interested me was the application of this universally understood principle to what we read at Avalon. Why do we read some threads and not others. What is our focus? Some threads resonate, whilst other's draw us away from our centre (whether to internal or external)
I begin to notice (for myself, not saying it's an absolute truth) that while there maybe several hundred threads to read, I could look down the list and categorise them one way or the other. Internal/External talking about love and expansion or fear and hiding/ impending disaster.
See , although we talk about factors going on in the outside world, I'm guesing all of this is really about how
we interface with the outside world (and not about the outside world at all - if you're internal. And if you're an external sort of person then this is reversed) and we're all different, we'll all have a different reaction.
Thanks again for participating.

P.S. Rythm, the Oxtail's gone... and one of vegetable soup. Family were over at the weekend. Dash, now does that mean I now have to go out and replace them??? Well, yes, I like soups actually. :0)
