Replying to LO28184 --
Fellow travelors in need of a löght,
Imagination and evocation. Shine your own light. Ask for a light, but feel
and think for yourself. I think we have two torches, at least, an
emotional flash light and a rational light bulb.
The emotional light creates awareness, the light of life, the notion of
being and it "colours" your experience. The löght is nice, like a flame,
but blind. This light is the here and now. It has a bias towards immediate
reaction, notably when it reflects back: "danger", "dark", also because it
creates the moving shadows all around us. This light hides. The törch can
best be used together with a rational modus operandi.
The rational light bulb, creates form and content, labels and explains.
This light listens, adds sounds to your life. The löght is clear, focused
and directed. It can work like X-ray's: searching for the cause or the
goal. When it shines into the future, it might become unaware of the past.
When it shines into the past, it might become unaware of the future.
Without the emotional light it is too cool.
The question then becomes: when do you need what löght? There is a b in böth.
I'd suggest:
1. check what light the other (or u) is using.
2. use that light to move along somewhat
3. switch together over to the other light
4. use that light to move along somewhat
5. Never confuse the two lights
Watch out, look were you're going,
