In the old paradigm, I had cut myself of from the public unable to communicate basic thoughts because of fear of humiliation and I was always afraid I couldn’t contribute anything of value. I have for the first time, other than personal chat with family, been able to voice my thought and share aspects of me without fear or shame. I very probably posted some silly answers as well as some groaners, but so what?
This is all part of the new paradigm. We are all here to learn from one another and any contribution on this forum is for the benefit of us all.

Peace to all

Yes, dear I know exactly what you are talking about... I know what it feels like to think about each and every single word you say, before you say it, because of fear it might sound stupid. Or then, better say nothing at all.
You should have seen me before I managed to do my first post here... Logging in and out endlessly ... before I finally managed to submit it.

My father, shortly after I passed the threshold, remarked that something had changed in me, that I was no longer pausing in my sentences and searching for just the right word. He said it seemed I had reached a new level of confidence. And so I had!

When you deal with the little approval addict monkey, it frees you to be you and not worry about if things don't come across perfect, because you know they never will anyway

I'm happy you did and I can safely say we are all delighted to have you on board. You will find the more you post the easiest it becomes and you will even learn to laugh at your own silly answers The more you read and the more you post the more answers you will receive. Oh and btw don't worry about disturbing anyone because you're not

Absolutely Seamus and once over the threshold the switch on the ego is turned off. All of the ego based Idiosyncrasies driven by fear are left behind and when the self emerges there is a new found confidence from the newly bestowed clarity
this game is getting better and better

Yes I also search for words a lot because I want everything to come out purrfecdt... it frees me a lot to hear that it is not necessary. Great stuff!

There is a difference between getting the mean of the words and the meaning of the message. Another example is the difference between the "letter of the law" and the "spirit of the law".

We deal in the "message" and only phonetic approximations are necessary for that.
