Good and bad

LOVE THIS!!! 
you are absolutely right! I’m going to do this today!

thanks 

Well yes and hopefully we are still around to face ourselves and what is really important. Some people dont make it through a gambling addiction

I think it goes deep to a spiritial level of loving ourselves and others again. I take comfort in ho'oponopono which works well for me.

I think structured society does create a prison and we create our own prisons because we are taught to conform and not think outside the rigid box of conformity

My personal views are strong that we are turned out onto a world with a baffling amount of complexity, competition and stress. I am told I have to be a success, a provider, a good little taxpayer and keep up with the Joneses...Theres not really many opt out clauses that dont require money.

This may sound strange but I honestly didnt want much to do with a capitalist system that stamps an NI number on my forehead and sets me off in the rat race towards a pension. Send me off to a school institution for social engineering where I was forced to meet every other person within five years of me...forced hell I would call it.

I didnt want any worry but life just seemed to throw stress and worry at me

I look around at all my stuff and we let that define us compared with others. Sometimes Im grateful for having anything and sometimes I think its all junk that traps me into paying the rent for storing it all. I long to be free but is there really such a thing in this world?

I think its no wonder that people turn to any drug that tempts them away from the daily routine and life worries. I totally understand but these drugs are known to be highly addictive.

But thats the thing... I have to face myself and who I am. I am a complex person but I can think more clearly now.

I had a serious addiction. I was very ill with it. My life is much better gamble free

Best wishes to everyone on the forum

I am so pleased to hear that you are getting something good out of hó oponopono.  For me ( and it is still very new) it is a missing link that has made a lot of things fall into place and I do my "cleaning" every day. For everyone who does not know it, I will recommend the book Zero limits with Dr. Joe Vitale and Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len.

I think that is a big thing people are starting to realise with the covid 19 pandemic! Most people are isolating (I know that can be damaging for a lot of people mentally) and life is slowing down, animals and birds are thriving and the planet is starting to repair itself slowly! I think reflection is a great thing and I have been doing a lot of that! My son has adhd and was bullied as was I by his primary school head, she enjoyed making my son watch as I sobbed if he was in trouble and it took me over 5 years to get myself out of self loathing and not believing I was good enough to be his mum and that I did not want to deal with him or his issues! That’s how she slowly made me feel, and it stuck I didn’t see my beautiful, loving, caring and genuine boy! I saw a naughty kid who didn’t listen to anything ? I’m ashamed to admit it but now my son is 16, he’s going to college in Oct and even though school finished on Thursday he’s hunting for a job till he starts college! I’m so proud of him because even though this woman was awful to him day after day, he never once said I don’t want to go to school! He had days that weren’t great but his secondary school were amazing and slowly helped him believe he was amazing! I think that because I love both my kids so much, she could tell I was not coping and used that against me! It was a very prominent and traumatic time for me in my life and I think it could have possibly been the beginning of allowing myself to get sucked into self destructive behaviours! I have regrets about that period still but try not to think about it! ?
