Guest guest Posted January 28, 2000 Report Share Posted January 28, 2000 Hi Everyone, I am fairly new to this list and since I've only recently wiped the dust off of my Jung collective and renewed my interest in his work and in depth psychology (I am a psychotherapist) I tend to lurk more often than I participate. I find the list fascinating and really appreciate the open, honest, often very creative and passionate, from the heart, sharing that happens here. I belong to another list, the ONN (On-line Noetics Network) supported by the Institute For Noetic Sciences, that is also a very special on-line spiritual community. We seem to have an unspoken commitment there to not let anyone leave the list as the result of an argument or heated discussion without some sort of resolution. So, Although I didn't agree with much of anything that was expressed by Dan I was somewhat disappointed, not only because he left the list but because so many people seemed really glad that he did so. I think there was an opportunity lost that could have led to greater understanding of both positions. Metta, Suzanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2000 Report Share Posted January 28, 2000 Greg, fa, I get my pleasure - my 'pay' - from seeing things work well, from seeing people blending and harmonising their knowledge, enjoying themselves and sharing to such a point that they can forget their 'selves' in a dedication toward a great whole... It is to this end that my entire life tends. Today is the start of the runic half moth Elhaz, symbol of internal power and of sanctury. Would that we had a Mr. Midshipman Wilde! Ah well!...

It was not at all my intent to imply that Mike step down from the position of moderator of this list. I certainly appreciate all your efforts to keep this list going. I have learned so much here.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2000 Report Share Posted January 28, 2000 << I want to publically apologize to Mike. >> Oh gee, Merry. I don't think anyone thought that. Nobody sent you to the woodshed, that's MY place, anyway, she says smiling. And hey, if we're at sea, there ain't no mo' woodshed... where do I go? Suzanne -- I didn't hear any loud applause when Dan said he was jumping ship. I've often crossed swords with him on this list. I think we all appreciate that he likes to fight. Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't. I like to fight sometimes, too. There is a place for a provacateur/euse... but one has to chose the places carefully. Your comments are good ones, though. I don't think any of us here want to run away from things just because they are uncomfortable. Goodness -- we all appreciate Jung. Is there anyone more uncomfortable? smiling on this cold cold night.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 precisely! ---having a cool, moderate breeze blowing towards me, especially during an asthma episode does make breathing easier. it also helps calm me since my body is working overtime to draw in much-needed air.i remember that, aside from the traditional cures that i mentioned in my sharing as an asthmatic child, friends and relatives would always recommend that we take a trip to manila bay on weekends so that i could take in fresh air coming from the sea --- same principle!breathe easy everyone and do enjoy the rest of your weekend.peace.-mike i.> > >> > > hello all!> > > > > > typhoon season here in the philippines. it was really sunny earlier> > > today, but now the skies warn of rain - maybe later tonight. i don't> > > sense any impending asthma episodes yet although i always have my> > > ventolin (salbutamol) inhaler handy.> > > > > > i'd like to share some recent writings about my experiences growing up> > > with "the disease" just so you'd know how it was like for me back then> > > on the other side of the world. you guys can read it here:> > > > > > http://asthmatic- child.blogspot. com/> > > <http://asthmatic- child.blogspot. com/>> > > > > > i wrote something about traditional cures which my wife, kathy, found> > > quite amusing.> > > > > > to see what made her laugh, go ahead and read "growing up with asthma"> > > at:> > > > > > http://asthmatic- child.blogspot. com/> > > <http://asthmatic- child.blogspot. com/>> > > > > > breathe easy everyone!> > > > > > peace.> > > mike i.> > >> >> > > ________________________________> No viruses found in this outgoing message> Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.4.5> http://www.iolo. com> ________________________________> No viruses found in this incoming message> Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.4.5> http://www.iolo. com> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 hello & thanks tom.having to deal with asthma all my life, i do appreciate my folks and other relatives for their advise regarding my disease. things like this tend to make you more thankful. i guess it all depends on how we see things. as a child, i truly believed that everytime we would see the doctor, he would make it all better. when the symptoms subsided, i would forget about how really bad i felt when i was having the episode and just get on with "my life".later on, i did develop ways to cope with asthma.in 2004, i went to LA during the winter and stayed with my mother's aunt. unfortunately, i forgot my sprayer. so when it got really chilly the first night, i woke up with that all-too-familiar, dreadful feeling of having a heavy weight on my chest. i got up, sat on the edge of my bed and looked out the window to calm myself. the night sky was all lit up with stars so that helped me relax. after about an hour, i felt better and soon went back to sleep.on that same trip, i had the chance to visit new york and utah, which were a lot colder. thankfully, i didn't have any asthma episodes during the rest of my stay in the states.so i would say that, eventually, we learn to cope with stuff that life throws at us.enough said. breathe easy everyone...peace.-mike i.> > > >> > > > hello all!> > > >> > > > typhoon season here in the philippines. it was really sunny> earlier> > > > today, but now the skies warn of rain - maybe later tonight. i> don't> > > > sense any impending asthma episodes yet although i always have my> > > > ventolin (salbutamol) inhaler handy.> > > >> > > > i'd like to share some recent writings about my experiences> growing up> > > > with "the disease" just so you'd know how it was like for me back> then> > > > on the other side of the world. you guys can read it here:> > > >> > > > http://asthmatic- child.blogspot. com/> > > > <http://asthmatic- child.blogspot. com/>> > > >> > > > i wrote something about traditional cures which my wife, kathy,> found> > > > quite amusing.> > > >> > > > to see what made her laugh, go ahead and read "growing up with> asthma"> > > > at:> > > >> > > > http://asthmatic- child.blogspot. com/> > > > <http://asthmatic- child.blogspot. com/>> > > >> > > > breathe easy everyone!> > > >> > > > peace.> > > > mike i.> > > >> > >> >> >> > ________________________________> > No viruses found in this outgoing message> > Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.4.5> > http://www.iolo. com> > ________________________________> > No viruses found in this incoming message> > Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.4.5> > http://www.iolo. com> >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
