The efforts of doing that would drain Yourself and do nothing good to that one that's been lifted... because they can't see that this has happened to them. And they don't want to accept it and use it trying to find a 'new understanding' of something. They are blind to the fact of noticing it (the help, guidance, or how ever You 'lend a hand' to someone), because their eyes are closed, in a way. Thelma - I recieved Your 'virtual' hug in my mind and I am sending You one back aswell! :) And I'm glad I posted this video here on an impulse. toni j – I agree, You can’t lift a weight that does not want to be lifted.

Is it a calling? I am intrigued, to follow my heart is all I can do, to go against is too painful, it would be to go against my inner core. So while it burns, I am grateful, because I am alive, I can only hope to understand more with each day. Very interesting. With thanks Pandora Hernan

I have had the feeling of burning in my heart many times, I don’t understand it, I always thought it was to do with Love, because when I feel Love I connect more than at anytime.

Is it a calling? I am intrigued, to follow my heart is all I can do, to go against is too painful, it would be to go against my inner core.

So while it burns, I am grateful, because I am alive, I can only hope to understand more with each day.

Very interesting.

With thanks

I really like that Hernan Vilar. When we finally get in the boat completely and row away without coming back to shore we are trusting that the universe is conspiring to help make our dreams come true. No more fear in the unknown. Once we are out to sea we can go as far as we would like. Across the entire ocean, to a neighboring island, or back to the land we sailed away from in the beginning. It is up to us to follow our hearts to determine where we should go. I also agree with Paul from Austria that when you experience the mysteries of the journey it is good to remain humble and grateful. I find that people forget this when things are going well or terrible and they stop listening to the signs and can no longer identify the mysteries and lose their way.

If, one day, I hope, the world is without war. What will all the countries do? There will be no hunger, no need to protect “the bomb,” no need to worry about security, drugs, killings, mass graves etc. Will we finally find Paradise? Will the human race live as one with the world? My answer to my own question is that we would excel in science and space travel because we will no longer waste money on war. Our collective health would no longer suffer and our children would be free to roam the Earth doing whatever they wish... Interesting! This is very like something I was thinking of today.

It how to realise the Universe. The information stream is too strong, it washes off separate persons, twists them in the general stream under the name "mankind". But the person is separate unit. And the person turns in this stream, understanding that it of all - only a grain of sand.

One interesting story I would like to read about is the moment Jesus gets to the fishermen and says: "Follow me." Think about that happen to you. Wouldn't you think: "I got bills to pay", "I have to fetch the children at school", or even "Are you nuts? I just got promoted to helmsman!". The "Call" invariably arrives one day and then we have to make a decision. In that story, no one says what happened next. No one knows whether the fisherman got the sack or is a row at home ended up in divorce. No one mentions his children left behind. Why? A “happily ever after story in the bible?” I don’t think so. Once one chooses to follow the “Call” there is no turning back. There is no returning home. It’s like death. You just die, full stop. Things are left behind and you move on. Funny feeling, though, the homesickness and the Portuguese word “saudade”, that tears the chest open and depicts a suffering heart for those who were left. Shivering timbers of the soul. I can’t remember who said “One does not find new land without losing sight of the coast”, but somehow it helps me express in words what the “Call” is all about and the feeling of smallness when we finally understand we are contained in the All.
