Guest guest Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Picking up on the discussion with Vivian, I thought it could be fun to uncover the beliefs we have about the group / individuals within the group, even about ourselves, such as: He / she should do the work more I should know better People should follow the rules for doing the work This group is for people interested in doing the work He / she should mind his / her own business New members should post more / say hello Any beliefs that come up for you about the group / group members or have come up for you in the past?

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 > Any beliefs that come up for you about the group / group members or > have come up for you in the past? > > Jon About this group/forum - It's one of three things on the internet I regularly check out, so I am drawn to it a lot. For the most part I don't have any stressful stories about it. - - Maybe that usually my posts are not in 'work' format. - - A little that I should respond when people ask for help, but after reading what they've written I don't have anything to add - - I do sorta roll my eyes when I see Roslyn posting more 9-11 conspiracy posts. Sorry Ros All my posts should be only in 'work' format. Is that true? No How does thinking this thought make me feel? I get a tenseness in my stomach, throat becomes a little dry, mouth frowning a bit, neck tightening up some. Who/what would I be without this thought? I'd enjoy posting in here, not worried what anybody thought. Free. Happy. Allowing the flow of life. T/A: All my posts shouldn't be in work format. Yeah, that feels right All my thinking should be in work format. Nooooooo, not at all, oh wow, that IS a stressful thought I do have though, to a degree All my thinking shouldn't be in work format, yeah that feels right Others posts should be in work format, nope, uh uh Others posts shouldn't all be in work format - yeah Feel free to post what you want to Life should only be lived in 'work' format - ohmigod no! lol Life shouldn't only be lived in 'work' format - yeah, it's one possible not in the uni-verse - but I want other notes too I should respond/reply when people in here ask for help. Is that true? hmmmmm I guess I do respond, but sometimes that response is that I question and acknowledge that I don't have anything to reply with. Yeah, that's true I shouldn't respond/reply when people in here ask for help. That's true, when nothing comes up to reply with Aaaaah, this is helpful, as just a few hours ago I was doing some work/meditation on the belief: Since I have a lot of free time these days, I really SHOULD be finding places to volunteer and give of myself That 'should' isn't true, in here or elsewhere My thinking should respond/reply when people ask for help. No, someties it just doesn't. And thinking it should brings stress, as it's not true My thinking shouldn't respond/reply when people ask for help. That's right, it doesn't at times, and that's okay Roslyn shouldn't be posting her 9-11 conspiracy beliefs in here. Is that true? hmmm, no, not really How do I feel when I believe this thought? I get a bit tight inside when I see title of a post, and can tell it's about 9-11/govt deceit - and my eyes go to the right and I see Ros's name. I am distracted then, from being present and open, to Ros and to other postings in here. I want to shut down/leave. Or argue - fight/flight response seems like. Who/what would I be without the thought Ros shouldn't post her 9-11 conspiracy theory beliefs in here? I would smile when I see them, for they remind me of my friend Ros I would be happy that I'm allowing her and ultimately others and myself, freedom. T/A Ros should post her 9-11 conspiracy theories in here. Well yeah, I think they're probably stressful beliefs for her, which makes this perfect place to bring those beliefs. I shouldn't post my own conspiracy beliefs in here. I do that sometimes, judging myself and others, isn't that conspiracy in a way? And like for Ros, if thinking a thought if stressful, this is the perfect place to share it I should post my own conspiracy beliefs in here. Well yeah! My thinking shouldn't include conspiracy beliefs. ohmigosh, I realize it does, quite a bit. Family, friends, govt, ohgosh, I have fears around how they might think/what they might do to further their own agendas at the cost of my own (beliefs I can do work on definitely - thanks for helping me see this Ros My thinking should include conspiracy beliefs. Yeah, it does, that's okay. I invite them in now - - - This post shouldn't be so lengthy, is that true? hahahaha - - - I love this forum, love all of you, love life.
