Things that haunt are good
I told bosy there was one night i dreamt of Sister Ang callin me and had an amicable conversation before the dream diffused into somthin else. What was uncanny was the significant moment of fear and apprehension upon seeing his name blinking on the ringing phone, which den magically vanished when the conversation started. It was like nothing before had happened! I can stil vividly recall the waking moment, when all was fresh and pleasant, but suddenly drenched in confusion and shock when i remembered what i had just dreamt of. What the heck was that for! Of all things why did i dream of him?!
NO. I am not in love with him, not even a little tinge of that. Nor was i preoccupied with thoughts of him for the past days. That is, i am not as sad as before by the disappointing friendship that has gone to waste. But indeed he has left his unmistakable footprints in this insignificant life of mine. And as everytime i reflect on such stuff, i can never escape seeing those marks, smelling them, sensing the repulsion and reluctance to accept him for he was. Just as like mariane. Now who says it is only those whom we want to be together with, that we ought to accept those flaws that they have? Doesnt anybody realise that even those whom we do not wish to bang shoulders with, also have to be respected with acceptance?
It is not that i have not "move on" with these people. It is that i cant accept them, which amounts to despise and disappointments. Then, wary as i am of my rightless soul to condemn anyone, i cannot help but feel sorry for myself. For I am trained not to hate anyone nor despise people. I am trained to love everyone with "gentleness and respect". But my body is structured as such by emotions, impulses, reflexive activities and all those things that could have made myself uncontrollable. So it is not my nature to just ignore something that had been beautiful before, unless....unless....i have decided that time and selfishness shall make me erase them.That, would be the saddest thing, the ultimate sin. For that would mean i do not even deem "you" as worthy of makin me angry, confuse, depress. Cease to exist. Nothing.
"Nothing" is not acceptance. Neither is it the opposite of acceptance.It has no respect at all like that of acceptance, and is definitely not an easy lazy way out of trouble. It is more like one type of end to troubles.And it is never easy to erase anyone who had left footprints, out of one's life.
So i can rank as follow (with 1 being the best and 5 being the worst):
1) bang shoulders; accepted flaws
2) bang shoulders; unaccepted flaws
3) no shoulder-banging; unaccepted flaws
4) no shoulder-banging; accepted flaws
5) GONE
So i guess that i can be at least glad that mariane is at number 3, while sister ang is tredging dangerously between 3 and 4. Which is to say that they still exist to haunt me, teach me, remind me, whatever. As i have chosen before, that as a true friend, i do not just discard mariane jus becos he is "bad". I still remains his listenin ear if he wants to. I shall be the laid back friend haha...reluctant to meet but MAY still...
And as for sister ang. I have accepted his flaws and i do not wish to bang shoulders with him whatsoever (i am ashamed).
Never has anyone been in number 5. Not that i can remember haha...cos if i do den number 5 is falsified. But i remember i made tis prayer and i wish to repeat it again...
"Even as i am bent on the discomfort inside my heart; my feelings not going in one smooth flow, i only pray for those whome i love and do not love. For the latter only in prayers, shall they be whom i love too.
Bless Mariane clarity; of virtue; truth; humility and i shall thank you ever more."
For i am human and may God forgive me. As i am reminded to repent, shall i repent beyond thy pride.
Amen.

Just to share extracts from a parapsychology past life book i just finished.

"...That your soulmate is not quite what you expected is, I feel, the norm rather than the exception. But the desire for a soulmate lies behind many of our relationship sagas.
Experience leads me to believe that our soulmate is not singular, neither is it necessarily the man /woman of our dreams.A soulmate is someone who shares our soul group ... ...A soulmate is someone who helps us to grow - IN THE WAY WE NEED, NOT THE WAY WE WOULD LIKE. ... ...Old Soulmate contacts begin with a wave of lust as the base chakras open up in recognition of an old lover. Indeed, so many people fall instantly in LUST rather than in love that it is hardly surprisingly that soulmate connections do not always end happily. This wave of lust may well obscure the real reason for meeting again.
We may also find that a soulmate is not in incarnation with us. He/she may be acting as a 'guide' for our present life, helping and encouraging us from the other side.There are occassions,however, when this seemingly disparate being is actually a part of our self that we need to reintegrate so that we can make the inner 'projection' of the masculine or feminine can occur in or out of incarnation.Some ppl do it with a partner, others with a guide, or an imagined soulmate for whom they eternally search instead of looking inside their own self.
While we may believe that we are looking for someone to make us complete, to love us forever, and to be completely and utterly ours, it seems that the spiritual purpose of partnership is to learn to be WHOLE within ONESELF.To be totally bonded to someone else on all levels is unusal, and may even be spiritually unhealthy. It is certainly psychologically so, as it can create dependence. Many relationship issues center around regaining autonomy and taking back one's own power. ... ..."
And one wonders if it's possible to truely love more than one person at a time and why one can't possibly dislike/forget a person despite being patronized n hurt repeatly....
