Sorry, aside from a loosely interpreted pseudoexistential diatribe about 'love' w/pics, I don't get what your post has to do with the "2012" title.
I also don't understand why you would quote Carl Rogers in your signature (i.e., “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.”) as a reference link to Schrödinger's cat, which is a quantum physics thought experiment, that although linguistically paradoxical, deviates from the Rogerian thesis of individual authenticity.

Dear MyParadoxicalSelf,
No need to apologize, I've known I'm not that smart for years and years. Recognizing that fact, I don't feel too badly about missing your message. Your message didn't imply that.
I don't understand what source you got in touch with, what you want us to do about it, frankly, I don't get the point. Perhaps if you reworded it for those of us who are a little slow?
With respect,
Charles1952
P.s. I'm getting the feeling that, just maybe, you're telling us to love each other. Still don't know about this "source" business, though. Maybe we're supposed to love the "source?" - C -

While I appreciate your respect for my feelings, I'm not easily upset & I do not have a short fuse. I have read some of your other posts, but am not interested in revisiting them at this time; however, that's not meant as disparaging.
As far as "playing along"--or answering my questions, w/o sounding curt, it's on you if you choose not to credit Rogers with your signature phrase & I gather that your "urgent 2012 information" is referring to a type of spiritual/metaphysical synthesis that you came upon from reading doomsday related material?

who is it that likes to use those big words?
the three words is a mirror that shows you how you view your "self" whether you accept it or not
did you happen to click the star for the gentleman that missed the "play" on words too?
who in your mirror is calling you dumb? maybe trying to use big words to sound "smart"
i pose that question as humbly and respectfully as "i" am able

i attempted a few times but it was messing with the spaces
i figured people have Google and could easily see I did not "create" it?
so i just let it go
why would that bug you if you truly do not have a short fuse?
did you feel the need to make it sound like you knew who the quote was from?edit on 28-10-2012 by MyParadoxicalSelf because: (no reason given)
I'll interpret this as a decline to answer

the thing is there is no answer...
that is the point
the mirror is you whether you choose to look at it or not is none of my businessmen
i was simply and humbly as possible trying to provide a catalyst
because when you get upset I feel it too
i was hoping our discourse would make you look in the mirror so to speak
best wishes and the flags are not necessary but i do appreciate the gesture
