More good vibes to all!
James.
P.S. Sheesh Nay, cant you get your mind out of the gutter for a few minutes? [;)][:P][:D]
I love you all too. now wouldn't the would be a better place if we all could just hug and say I love you?
I´m loving seeing all the reactions! Just 3 words and people get a little more of happiness (i hope!).
In real life the impact it´s bigger.
So, you know wich is your next step: go and say "I Love You!" to anyone...maybe you won´t have any chance of doing it again.
I love you all people [;)]
sorry but I only love myself. [:D]
THAT'S THE FIRST STEP!

A lot of people would tell me I shouldn't 'like them' at all. [:)]
(Edit: Key piece of information: I just turned 16)
Hahahahaha...touche'!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well said, NLC! [:D]
Nay
Edit: LOL, that was a very big missing key there! Guess I can forget on what I was thinking before I saw your edit..[:P]
About being younger, it´s the same to me...but the low limit it´s 20! The maximum limit it´s, hmmmm....30?! or near that!
Now, if you are a girl, without boyfriend and with the refered age (20-30)...you are welcome [:)] to my harem[;)]!
Hey....no fair! some of us in our upper 30's still have it! [:X]
Eh, don't think the hubby would be willing to share though..hehehe.
Nay [;)]
Oh yes,
surely we all love everybody
Yes[^][:D]
May shadow reach the light,
Gwathren
Everybody needs a healthy dose of bunny love! [:D]
I feel the love! [:D]

Don´t worry Nay: i don´t care you have more than 30[:P] and about sharing me...well..hmmm.. ah.. i will think on that latter[;)]!
I love the world too, and even you crazy astral projectors.
but, love means different things to different people. Like, it means sex to some, unconditional love to others, Jesus-love to others, and who knows how many other interpretations.
And, how come we find it easy to love pretty, good-looking things, and hard to love ugly, festering things. Like, I love you Lord of the Bunnies, you are so cute and cuddly, but I hate you snakes that are long and uncuddley. Can we look beyond appearance? This body is just FORM, we are really spirit!!!!
Like, if my face was harelip and I talked wierd, could you love me? And I had a huge, pussy pimple on the end of my nose. It's not who I am, I was just born that way!!!!!!!
I rhetorically asked in another thread 'what was evil?' My answer, from reading Gary Zukav, is the complete absence of love. Think about this. Evil isn't any 'thing' in itself, but a lack.
When someone or something attacks you, it wants something. It wants your flesh, your energy, your power - something. It is a lack, and expresses itself by trying to get what you've got!
Music, laughter, beauty - these are things which 'raise your spirits' - literally raise your vibratory rate. Negative things, on the other hand, like violence, anger, hatred, these all bring us down - lower our vibratory rate. Robert Bruce has said that it is the lower vibrational astral realms where all the 'Negs' hang out.
Some say anger is positive, that it focuses us and shields us from pain. But it is because it lowers our vibratory rate, thus our awareness and consciousness that it does this. We feel more focused when we are conscious of only one thing, we feel less pain if we are less aware. Anger has it's place in the physical realm, but at the same time it lowers our vibratory rate down toward the physical realm.
At the same time, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. This shows the true value of compassion, which sees value and beauty in all. Once we can see beauty in everything, even that which some say is ugly, this raises our vibratory rate to ever higher levels. Our negativity drops as we are filled with love.
Love begets love - and THAT is why I feel the love in this thread! [8D]
Well said, Kiauma. What will it take for the world to believe this? The sheer power of love. I see the holiness in all, I don't see that you're different than I, or ugly, because I just don't acknowledge it.
They say Mother Theresa loved so much, she never got sick yet she was with the dying or dead all day long. Yet, if she would've tried anything with someone evil, what would they have felt, would they have blocked the light? I'm talking about Saddam or Hitler. And no, I don't want this to turn into an argument about "us and them", I'm just using those people as EVIL role models in our world.
ie. if someone's about to attack you, and you just blast them with all the love energy you have, put sparkly light around them and try to hug them, what will happen? Maybe they'd drop the weapon and run away, not knowing what just happened. Maybe you'd become invisible to them?
And hey, sending a lot of love out to everyone. Smile at someone who isn't smiling, because they need one of your's.
Love and laughter to all. Have a great weekend!!!!!!!!
[:D]
Sometimes, when i am lucid an conscious from other people life and suffering, i feel a great compassion. I start to see all the problems that affects thousands of people. I see their great suffering throw their lifes and i feel compassion, i feel that i need to get illumination and then leave my life and help others. In that moments i feel love for everyone, even people that it´s bad, like murderers and terrorists, because i see their blindness of soul (not pretending to be less blind, that would be arrogance). I just feel a big wave of love and a need to expand it and share it.
I see that at any moment we can loose for ever anyone we love. Each moment in our lifes it´s unique, but the heavyness of our lifes
stops us from seing behind the clouds of emotions. There is a sun waiting for us, a bright and clear light that will warm up our souls. I want to find light and want to see every conscious being to reach it too:
"On gate gate paragate parasam gate body svaha." - Free, free, free far behind from everything, mind awaken, let it be.
I Love You all!
Blessed be, I have such a love vibe going here, I just feel incredible. It is possible to just love, for no reason at all. Just the act of loving is amazing. I have never posted so much in one day. Guess it helps that I've gotten my work all done for today and I have time to spread love.
Spreading love, wouldn't it be just great to have a job, just going around and looking at people, right in their eyes, and saying "I love you! You are a beautiful and amazing human being!!!! That would be so awesome. Let's just love ourselves into a new world. Right into heaven on earth.
Excellent points Moontingle. You made me think. [^]
I see there are two possibilites here, depending on our perspective.
Sending 'positive' thoughts to someone attacking you could quite possibly backfire. I mean, the reason you would do that might just be self-serving and limited, and you wind up simply adding energy to what is attacking you, possibly making it more negative! [xx(]
But let's look at the power of love. IF you really open your heart, if you are able to give on some level, if you really are able to raise the vibratory rate of who or what is in front of you, then you have definitively lessened it's negativity! By raising it's vibratory level, you have increased it's consciousness, it's awareness and awakened it's own compassion. I'm sure any lurking negative entity would find his diminishing lack a disconcerting and disturbing experience. ;)
That is really spreading the love! [:D]
I hope this is still on topic ... but speaking of the power of love. Just after I posted, I picked up a kids' book on the Ghost Dance. It was introduced to the Paiute people when the settlers were moving in and killing buffalo, ripping up the land to farm it etc. Anyway, Wovoka had a vision, and he told the people to dance, to hold the dream, and the magic would be strong. To do a sacred, nonviolent dance. That the people could have back that which they they thought had become ghosts, but that which they loved the most: sparkling water loaded with fish, the herds of buffalo and elk would come back, miles & miles of waving green grass. They danced and danced, but the settlers thought they were doing a war dance. The Ghost DAnce was strong, but the bullets sang more loudly. Many were killed.
Now, the earth cries again, and if we all love, if we all dream, if we all sing, if we all dance, the magic will be strong. We will keep what we love, what is good of the new, and weave the old and new in harmony. The big picture is, Wovoka's vision didn't fail. It is one yet to be realized by us!!!!! If we commit to what the dance means: committment to personal integrity and nonviolence, passionate concern for social and environmental health, & joining of purpose across political and cultural boundaries.
Also, I think you could stun that wicked person attacking you with the power of love.
Wishful thinking??
Fantastic story Moontingle! I am a moonchild myself... and am of some native american descent... recently I began to learn to play the flute...
God is love - the creative force behind all existance and action. To have more love is to be closer to God.
Stunned isn't the word. Enraptured is the word! [;)]
Wishful... heh! That too! [;)]
REally? The Native American descent, and the flute playing, I mean.
What nation are you from? And the flute, do you have books you're learning from? Young men used to play a wooden flute outside the tipis of the young woman they wanted to court. Someone gave me a wooden flute, but I haven't learned to do a thing with it.
In the spring, we have a bird that really sounds like it's playing a few notes on a silver flute.
Flute music is PURE love, And so is the harp. And drums and ... music.
I love you!!
I love you man! [^]
Family lore states that my great grandmather on my mother's side was an Apache. Of course there is no paperwork on that.
Interestingly, my flute was a gift from my wife. I had wanted to get one for some time, but good ones are expensive and I really had no idea what to get. My wife bought me one for Xmas, and I love it! It is a "D" bamboo Balinese Suling.
I really can't say I know how to play at all, but I try to practice everyday on my lunch hour. I bought a small chromatic tuner so I could have some kind of guide what I am playing.
On my lunch hour I try to go down to the river where I can walk in the forest and be alone. Sometimes I play for the trees, the valleys, the hills, or the hawks who circle far overhead. The other day I went to a park, and wound up playing for half an hour to a rooster, who listened very attentively! [:I]
Sometimes, when I am earnestly trying to honor the forest strange music seems to come out of it's own accord. I can never duplicate the song when I go home.
The flute sound and especially flute music definitely has a loving energy!

It must beautifull playing flute in harmony with nature! You are lucky if have time to do that on the lunch hour. There is love on what you do, don´t loose that!
Thank you! :)
Yes there is love in playing the flute - or in making nearly any music. Also, after work, I go to an apartment that I used to live at at go for a swim in their pool or their hot tub - but don't tell them. ;) (I think it's okay though, so far this year I have been the only one in the pool!)
Keep sending out the love! [8D]
i luvv everyone...even if i hate them!
xoxoxoxo[:X]
Hey![:)]
I feel so great when I hear and say "I love you" and that post seems to me like shiny ray of light through my dizzly afternoon[8D]
So: "I love you all!"
Heh love is most natural and creative emotion in people and I think we should practise it more...[:D]
Be safe all[:)]
this reminds me of those guys who get drunk,then stumble around saying "I LOVE you man!!!"[:D]
kaiuma-I agree w/kazbadan.keep playing-and being in tune w/nature is very uplifting for all involved.no need for a [:I]smiley[:)]).love,freedom,light,and music are all facets of the most powerful force in the universe.
...and sometimes when morris the cat is next to me, and I'm practicing on my guitar,I'll hit a bum note (or 2 or 3,etc[;)]) and his ears will prick up,and he'll look at me as if saying "what the hell was that?"[:P]
to everyone reading-I (would) LOVE (to kill) YOU ALL.
just kidding-you know what I mean[;)]
this is creepy..... three whole pages of people saying "I love you man" and "no man i love you"
Am I allowed to say I LOVE YA'LL again?..[:D]
It's such a beautiful day here, that yep, I am feeling the love!!
Hugs~ Nay
Pyro, why is it creepy? Never miss an opportunity to say I love you to someone -- even all of the someone's here who we might never get to know in person.
This school year, I decided I was going to love my students, warts and all - no matter how awful some of them were and are. Inner city kids - they get so little of it. I have even managed to tame the Queen grump of the senior class by just ignoring the nastiness and loving her with kindness anyway. And a wonderful thing has happened with this bunch of kids, so different from each other - it is a totally integrated school -- are supportive and loving and friendly towards each other and towards me. If I am not there, they will tell me they missed me when I come back.
So, pyro, nothing creepy about saying I love you to anyone. It always makes someone feel valued and appreciated. Say it often, or at least, say it with actions if you can't seem to find the words.
So, I love you and everyone else who feels the love tonight here on the AP.
As for the rest of you guys, I am 50, cuddly, and cute as hell! Not interested in a 20 year old, but might consider someone else like myself who is at the gateway to geezerdom.[:D]
Considering the alternative, geezerdom is looking good to me.
Peace...Jena
Hey, i'm listening to "Love Song" by 311 right now. It's so beautiful that it gets me in the mood of saying i love. So here goes:

I Love you.
I LOVE YOU!!!
I LOVE THIS WHOLE FORUM!!!
there.[:P]
PEACE and LOVE.[:)]
I love you all too. [8)]
yea jena i guess you got a point, i was just pointing out the fact that a lot of people replied to this topic really really fast, and that it was kinda strange. but i do feel the love, and i love all of you except for you smileyspirit....(just playing)

Looool!! I love funny things.
i needed sum cheerin up...i noticed the love died down...where is the luvv? how am i supposed to be happy when theres no luvv???? this topic should never die again! lets keep it alive people!!!!
LOTZ A LUVV, SmileySpirit14
I love you! [:)]
Only you can make yourself happy, Smiley. You just choose not to be happy.
I Love You!
Suddenly i felt an urge to say to all of you guys: i love you! life is so short! one can say goodbye when you less expect...the friend of a friend died recently, and a very old member of my family died recently too...that makes me think about how quick we pass through this life.
So, since i never know when i am going to die, or when i will see you guys, for the last time, i just want to give you my love, all the love that i feel exploding in my chest in this right moment: i love you! who ever you be, reading this
(ps: i just remembered about this old thread...2004!! )
oh...the thread, the old one, is not complete...the 1st post is from mustard. I think that was i starting it, not him. i just saw that now. Are old threads not complete?
Sorry to hear about all the unpleasantness happening in your life Kaz.. I hope things look brighter for you soon. :)
lol, no, sorry Nay if i gave you the feeling that things are wrong with me. Things are ok! I mean, those persons who died they were not very closed to me. I got sad about their deaths. I got sad about the friend of a friend because he was such a good person and very young (near fortys i think), but i didnt knew him very well, i just spoke with him a few times. And i got sad with the death of the old woman because she was the cousin of my granmother and a very sweet person (but this death was more easy to accept, because it was a "natural" death, from being too old).
Those death make me think: we never know when its our hour! So thats the reason for me having that urge on saying i love you (on my last post on this thread) because once again i was remembered (through the death of those 2 persons) that one may die when we less expect...
With the exception of these 2 deaths, things are very ok with me since the last month :)
Thank you for your kindness TalaNay!
((((Nay))))
(thats the internet hug isnt it?) lol
I find it amuzing how people say people on their 40's 50s are very young.
Do we by any change have a life averaging around centuries, or what?
so, here i go celebrating my 205 anivesary..
Now,seriously. 40 years.bet he lived/enjoyed many things, so i'm happy for him =]
I think the internet hug is -->[[]] :wink:
But he was new, not with a very old look.
about internet vocabulary i admit that i am stupid lol
i must go, bye!
OH Kaz.. well then, good.. I think..LOL. I don't look at death as something to be sad about. Don't get me wrong, if someone close to me was to pass, I would be sad, but a part of me would know that they are much happier. I wouldn't grieve so much for them but more for me. Not being able to physically hold them or talk to them I'm sure will be hard but I will be happy for them and I won't forget that I will see them again, soon enough. :-)
I think 80 is young, if young is how you feel. It's a matter of perspective. :)
I have no idea about the hug thing..who cares!! (((((hug))))))) to you Kaz!! A hug is a hug.. it's the thought behind it.
you are lovely and sweet Nay :)
and i agree with what you say about death and being young.
oohh...btw, how can you have a karma of 57 and now of 13??
lol, this is crazy lol...someone loves to loose time with karma ratings, lol.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
muahhh
<(o^_________________________________^o)>
chiii!
wow i just came across this and thought, well its either people are expressing love for one another Orrr there hinting for some dam karma points :lol: amazing if you think about it every single person here has something in common hmmm makes me think..
thats my fear when bringing back this thread to life...people may think that i want to catch some karma points :(
you can bet that i dont give a *** to that. i have more importants things to worry about in my life lol
eheh :D it give us a good mood
A good and bright day to all of you!
I HATE YOU ALL ON OPPOSITE DAY!!
what?!? lol, i dont get it
It means I love you :-)
ehehe...my english!that why i got confused lol
