Puzzled--What is Our Purpose?????

Ok--it has been an interesting day-I woke up this morning to the sound of children and a kiss on the cheek. My fiance' took the boys to their ball game, I made the girls breakfast then I sat down with my cup of coffee and began to read through the blogs. I wish I hadn't- LOL

One in particular caught my eye. "ADULTRY"

Now I am not trying to beat a dead horse but on a professional level this has me just plain damned confused. While I am an open, honest and probably sometimes overly opinionated human being with my own views and thoughts. I am left with the question of "OUR PURPOSE" , What is it exaclty?

I am stunned and a bit amazed that personal bias exists in this way and in those who have been given a special gift of insight to help the individuals who are searching for guidance, and are lost.

I understand we are a community of individuals with a variety of gifts and talents. I am not a remote viewer, I can not do general ( I get wacky stuff-lol ) .

Please feel free to enlighten me -- All opinions and views are welcome.

Blessings,

Brenda

Thank you Sharlyne,

Very well put, love is life and life is love--forgiveness is a big part of that, which is hard at times. I appreciate you taking the time to enlighten me ;-)

Wiccan Princess,

First...thank you for the inspiration.  I started posting a response to your blog, only to discover I actually have a lot to say about it.  Then again, I have a lot to say period ;-)

Second, I thank you for the blog.  I think there we so many voices in the Adultry blog I think most got lost.

I don't know you well but it does seem that, when you post, you always know who you are...and that's a person I'd like to know more about!

Best of love and life to you always,
Heather

Forgiveness is more then a small piece ...my experience  - it begins with yourself.
EASY TO SAY! Oh my god. the what if I had done this diferent, if only etc....
You know what there are no accidents and you know what you already are enlightened. I like movies as metaphors...."it's a wonderful life" is probably the very best comparison or reminder to how important we are - this goes back to why love is so important - if I could be off this planet - of, I have so much had enough so long ago, but I made a choice. I have a contract to fulfill and a job to complete. There is no getting out and it will be done, so in that purpose my work is to ignite and share and simply be. It may be perhaps a bit more then that....but that is a good summarization. I have had more stripped of me then I care to discuss....starting out pretty much, but that is not a sob story, it is what brought me to now. Enlightenment is oversold. Love is UNDERSOLD. Breath, be you and enjoy the gifts and elements of the plantet. It will reconnect you to you....(who alreaty is!) I know it was a tough but fabulous blog. I thought about what I wrote, was it wrong....should I have reread what Denise said,,,,, you know it is none of my business in truth. It is honorable to be clear about your boundries - actually really good especially in a healer. However, my instantanious reaction was just that....so I maintain it was the right thing to do. It brought out interesting conversation in particular the openness that ensued...I kind of hope she deletes it for her clients for future reference on blogs - but that is up to her.
Language is a funny thing and when it is viewed only on the screen or in print you miss much translation...our bodies and tonalities say so much...so it is easy to understand why we get so bent out of shape on these!
Alright, enough chatter, have a fabulous fathers day!
Talk later I am sure Brenda! Be well, in love,
Sharlyne

Heather,
Thank you, I agree it seemed to be getting "HOT" in that kitchen,and we were all responding to the same thing. I am full of words with always to much to say and a lot of curiosity, I have this need to ask? WHY, not for negative reasons but to understand.

As Sharlyne pointed out-- it was how the the words were used.

Words are very, very powerful and can be misinterpreted easily espescially when typed. I am an open minded respectful person but, when it feels negative, I must ask questions to clear up my thoughts. I try not to judge a book by its cover so to speak without getting the information I need to make an informed impression/decision. There is a lot I not not know, and there is a small bit that I do know-LOL.
I agree again with the BLOG forum and it being used openly, it helps the process of understanding and even enlightenment.

Sharlyne,
I am like you that with life not being easy for me and yes a sob story that has no place here, and judgement has had no place in my life. I have always been judged based on bias and prejudice--which has led me to where I am and how I feel about honesty and truth--we all have opinions and I learn so much from each one, but I always feel the need to "understand" ones views and hear what they have to say/type ;-). I like the fact that openness is welcomed in the blogs--we all have the ability to put our 2 cents in, ECLECTIC is the way to go.

yes it is fun! I have way tooooo much time on my hands sometimes! So you people can take way toooooo long to respond. Darn you would think that life is happening around you@ LOLLLL and more laughing!
A few years ago I had a huge paradigm shift in how I viewed things and realized that it is not always what I thought. Then I realized we are all right from our own perspective.
Sadly and happily and it is that confusing, I have learnt I not know what I would do when put in certain situations. Love is the soul purpose period.

Dear Princess:

I was so impressed with your logical response on the blog yesterday. I commend you and I thank you for staying true to yourself also.  We are all wordsmiths at heart I think and I can rave on forever if someone will just listen he he!  I think we are all learning about ourselves and boundaries since we have been blogging and I am one that hopes it will continue on.  Thank you for your insightful words on your blog and in your comments.

Sharlyne,

I appreciate your wonderful insight and confirmations on my puzzled view today. I Feel better knowing that I am no tthe only on ewho has to step aside while others show me the way. I find it easier these days as I grow both spiritualy and "Older"-YUK !!! LMAO

Rosalea,
I have read your blogs and I am very humbled by your words of enlightment and your understanding. I tend to ramble and am not very eloquent with my words, so I try to watch them carefully--espescially yesterday. I have learned to not only read the words but to tap into what was behind it and remove my "feelings" as the pot began to boil over a bit and then it seemd that it became all about getting out of the line of fire. The perspective behind it was lost in translation--while we have the right to choose, we should be very mindful of why. I believe whole heartedly that KARMA will chase you down and I for one do not want that.-
Thank you for your kind words ladies as well as your help-

I wish you many bright beautiful blessings on this day and everyother.

Brenda

I think that our puspose if unconditional love and help. My chiro school mottoe is " to do, to give, to love, to serve" we put ourselves aside and we serve. it is not about us. If we are serving God, we serve everyone. It is the higher pupose. God loves all of us and thank goodness because none of us are perfect. So if we are limited than we are not ready for this work.

Well said Dr. Donna if we are to do what is needed we can not be judgemetnal and must look beyond our own personal issues. I know for myself that there have been days that my personal had me in a place that was nothing more than emotional prison adn before I could help others I had to help myself so I took those days off. I knew I was not in the right place to see what I needed to guide others.
I thank you, as you have explained our purpose very well and accepting our abilities comes with the knowledge that we must be true and open to those who seek help.

Dear Brenda:

I read that blog yesterday and was very interested in those that were throwing rocks and acting like they were holier than thou!  You and a few others renewed my faith in sensibility however and I wanted to thank you.  Being self righteous like Rosie wrote about today seems to be a cloak others put on easily on these blogs but I am not an Advisor just an observer and I sure am observing the true nature of some.

Thank you Willow,

I am glad to see that if nothing else the point that was made in the blog was one that opened us up to an understanding of how we act/react to a heated and controversial subject. I am not perfect--Hell far from it, but I do know that we are all entitled to feel the way we do without having to explain to others. I am curious and highly opinionated by nature and I do love a good debate--but a debate none the less. As we go through our lifes journey we can choose the easy path or the one tha has a few interesting turns** Hmmm, me I'll take the turns--

Blessings to you
Brenda

My feel about the blog itself was that it came from a position of being Holier than thou.  So how logical that the commentary followed suit.  I still laugh to myself over the defense that it was not judgmental.  "The Scarlet Letter" indeed.  

Yet we all have a right to our opinions, ESPECIALLY when invited to do so, and I support that particular advisors right to her judgment.

# re: Puzzled--What is Our Purpose????? @ Sunday, June 15, 2008 3:42 PM

I know at the beginning of the blog my stance was one of --what the hell is this really about? Is it personal, as I read the post I was following the words and not understanding the true meaning of where I think she truly intended to go. I to have been guilty of trying to get my point acrossed and not doing a good job with my word choices, causing mayhem.

Words are powerful forces and to quote a line from my favorite movie
"Choose your words wisely, for they may be your last"

Dear Brenda:

I don't really see adultery as being "dark" behavior but I will defend anyone's opinion and there right to have that opinion.  Where I think we get off track is being adament that our opinion is entirely correct for it may not be from another's perspective. I have some pretty strong opinions about pornography for example and I blogged about it this week but do I assault others for their perceptions...absolutely not.  We can blog about anything we want and we can express our opinions in many different ways but for Gods sake and the sake of good communication we need to stop flaying others because we differ from their opinions.  It ok to not agree but it is not ok to harrass and try to denigrate someone for having an opinion we do not agree with is all I am saying.  That is pretty darn judgmental in my eyes. If the blog was judgmental do we need to be judgmental because of it.  I think not.   Thanks for letting me vent just a bit here for I really do like to debate.  It is healthy and I hope we never stop doing it.

I was reading another advisor’s blog this morning and was truly inspired by the question that she asked. ...

Rosie!!!
Big breath in....almost 5 est....it is a good idea just for peace sake (feels a tad futile, but you know I talk to myself too....I am not sure I always hear myself! So,why not! As a group effort I am good with giving a moment of my time to send peace - accepted or not....)

# re: Puzzled--What is Our Purpose????? @ Sunday, June 15, 2008 6:10 PM

Hello Brenda... Good topic...

From my experience and observation over the years, I truly believe the common purpose we all share on this planet has something to do with managing the soul through proper usage (as in examining one's motive/intent (i.e. agenda) behind a decision to act verses focusing on the given choice (can one really make a wrong decision in the school of life?) which I have found brings lessons by allowing each of us (at some point) to see life from both sides.

Personally, I find that by embracing ways of thinking that are initially different from mine, I eventually find a certain kind of peace, extreme clarity and a deep understanding (usually after the fact) that's hard to describe.

I also believe that we each connect into the source of Creation as a whole (which explains intuition and remote veiwing), and that at some point we will all reconnect to become one. (After all, you've gotta go somewhere when you die!)

This is why when I read/counsel people (Note: I don't read for Keen but I do read privately) I emphasize the need to stay calm, accepting and living in the moment while seeking truth and as a result am usually able to decipher where the fear is coming from thereby allowing the person being read to transcend with acceptance the moment being brought forward.

On a personal level, I also believe we have a direct influence on our life force (which is different than creating it) and am not foolish enough to think we (as mere mortals) have the ability to out-smart, out-run or out-think God. Simply put, certain events are scheduled to happen (regardless of the amount of forthwith knowledge) as I believe things are decided (in general) before we are brought to this life.

I mean really, think about it. Would you really want complete decision and pre-planned control over every person, place and event that takes place in your life from the start? Would you really want to deprive yourself of the emotions that tag along with joy, love, suprise and anger etc. as such?          

Just some food for thought and my take on what I believe is our shared purpose in life ----

BattingAlone,
Very insightful words of wisdom ;-)Thank you for your response to my post--I was only trying to clarify for myself some of what took place with Rasberi's blog yesterday. I could feel the shift of energy and it puzzled me which was my purpose for this blog.

Blessed Be,
Brenda

i just think that there is beauty in service and openness. i was trained this way as a doc. i have had to treat racist,aggressive people,etc. i learned so much from those experiences. i will not close myself off. service is service. as long a s person geuinely wants me to serve them then i will gladly. regardless of who they are.

Somehow when I linked my blog to you, it shows up as a comment on yours.  I'm totally OK if you delete it.  I was not trying to advertise on your blog.  Quite the opposite actually!!

Hi Brenda,

Very good post, I added to Heather's and just got the chance to read yours now.  Our purpose here on Keen, (at least mine), is to offer insight and guidance to the best of my ability to those that are open to receiving it.

BTW, the comment that appears on Brenda's blog from Heather's link is called a "trackback", I once had an advisor try to "stir the pot" and attack me because my blog is full of them.

For some reason, people all over the internet link to my blog, that is what a "trackback" looks like, it also raises your blog up in the search engines when people search for terms that appear in your blog or your comments.

Keep writing Brenda, Keen needs insightful Bloggers.
