ok timeshifters...

A lot of old threads coming back from the dead... on my personal observations the time shift is no different. I have noticed various people living in the same cycles but it is relative to the observer and many of them are wholly unaware of themselves going through these cycles... you know those trying to relive their early days that often gets called a midlife crisis? That's what that experience is but it is a repeat of one's own personal cycle look very closely at it. Of course some people feel like every single day is groundhog day yes like the movie... wake up and do the exact same thing every single day where they could set their clock or watch by the exact same place they are at any given time during the day.

Of course such a life can seem hollow and mechanical or simply filled in their personal bubble of exactly the way they like it and feel safe.

All those who wander are not lost they are just spiraling out from a center like that image often seen in many cultures... but what happens? At some point it flips back around to start, and they repeat a cycle again. Well why is this? Because they are attached to the very exact same things... so of course seeking those exact same things the same patterns will appear change the place change the faces and what has changed everything and everyone except you... so that's just personal attachment.

So these things repeat until what happens? You figure it out. It is like trying to solve a puzzle and arrive at a solution in the mind, so what happens with this is one is looking for some sort of resolve to a problem or a need want of desire.

Well eventually even in the puzzle or solution it will be figured out, sometimes you have to step away have some other experience then out of the blue? Ah ha! Well we do the same thing in physical cycles seeking some desire that we feel we are lacking or cannot get enough of... each time we think we have it? What occurs it tries to struggle and get away thats simply because life cannot be shoved or backed into a corner of permanence it's nature is infinite and each person is on a journey or path to wisdom and understanding however long that takes... of course it is going to be filled with much suffering but trying to avoid suffering will not allow us to learn the lesson or evolve out of it... of course giving that lesson to others is typically out of ignorance and needing a lesson ourselves.

Removal of that ignorance and not saying oh he, she, they or whomever hurt me... stop and see how you are hurting yourself by not realizing how you have hurt them... self protection is that avoidance what is there to defend? But ones own ignorance trying to take the easy way of life and understanding than learn the lesson, and stop repeating those same cycles over and over again... like some people have said why can't I ever find a good partner? Because they keep choosing one that will give them the lessons they need and it just keeps repeating until someone stops and says ok what is the pattern that keeps repeating that you do and they do what habits keep this cycle re-occuring like a bad dream that you don't really want to keep repeating?

Well That was previously mentioned... the self trying to resolve itself into perfection, and well who are you trying to compete with in such a thing other than oneself, or some ideal image? Well the ideal is supposed to be an impossibility all sort of ideologies have arose out of ideas of what perfection is many persons deemed an ideal have been used as examples and many paths before even recorded history, or at least what we have recorded... but it is a personal journey to such a thing and well many paths are going to be the exact same thing beyond all the different terminology, well take away all the names places and one will see we have the same basic activities we all share in common and so very very very many we don't and those are the beliefs ideas of what it is as we have seen and experienced it and none of them are really wrong when looked at as they are your observations along the path of your life... many seek validation for them and many do not but no one is wrong saying they are deny's their observation of the world as they know it or experience it to be.

So what is the difference between a child and an adult? Possibility the whole world is full of possibility and wonder and magic until what happens? The adult world starts placing limits and fencing the world in... as a child we have no idea borders religion or anything else exists... the whole world right then and right there staring at and ant hill blowing on a dandelion to watch the seeds fly away and in that simplicity the world is great, but then we learn about borders and differences and customs and all of these other things that try to cease all questioning in the childs mind it isn't that that question ever goes away we just stop asking it gets buried under responsibility and seeking some sort of meaning look for purpose, so since life hands us one we didn't choose and due to limited choices... we try to choose everything else in it... and then are left feeling empty.

So the whole point of life is living it, seeing that these same cycles will keep repeating in ourselves not only in this lifetime but the next and on and on and on and what we repeat and what we spread to others comes back... if we failed the lesson by spreading that suffering and pain and nonacceptance and understanding we regress we slide back and take a form of life not as free from suffering and well if we take the one that seeks to help and aid others as our purpose and taking as much suffering we can in the process knowing that it leads to empathy for all of those that have gone through similar then we can help way more people than one person can harm others of course it can be the very ideologies we hold ourselves that harm and we are not even aware of it.

But no need to fret or worry life is life and living it is the entire point the more we accept all people the more we realize we are reflections of all of those ideologies no different than them... all the way back to right here right now... of course none of us are these ideologies etc they were passed as communication so we echo them because thats what we were taught and then we end up mimicking life of others and can feel lost trying to reflect an image not oneself but perceived as oneself... but how are any of them not oneself no matter which ones they may be? When we carry the pain of the past or spread that pain inflicted from the past that we did not even experience as if that would ever cease it from arising when that is exactly what keeps that re-occurring.

And it will continue to do so in no way different than it always has, because people choose their own attachments and hence choose their own lessons and bondage. And thus the cycle an individual has will keep repeating until they resolve that lesson they needed to learn for them.

That has been my observation on the subject presented here... p.s. do not become subjected to it nor slave to it, as that's simply choosing bondage over freedom simply observe and see what is holding you in bondage and it will always be what one has chosen in personal desire.
