a price for L I B E R T Y - from "from around the world"
what is a price for liberty?
a broken dream?
a broken heart?
a sacrifice?
or maybe a simple "yes" to all that has been and is?
sometimes even a simple "good bye" gives you the freedom you lost.
feels weird?
"The TRUTH will set you FREE"

Today
I was just thinking, when "re-thinking" about that last post, that what I wrote could sound a bit too blue or desperate.
Well, I did not mean to be sounding too blue or too desperate, when saying that this "sin of guilt is worse than sin itself" and that it was that which would sum up well where I was coming from and where I was to arrive.
I guess what i meant by saying that was that there are things and happennings in every person's life that she, or he, need work on letting go of, or "forgetting" (for-getting/"per-donare" as something that one gives forth in order to get in order to give again, that one does in order to be able to give - "donare" - again).
Languages and semantics are awesome, are they?
And so - for me, here and now, this means to get rid of all things that are holding me tied back to some things or people, or places, so that I can start working - full speed and full dedication - on things, and with people, and wherever it might mean - on things present and future.
Does this make sense?
If not (i suspect, it does not) - do not worry. It is - just and only words...

InTrO
This one is taken from anohter web-site (http://www.kabbalah.com/ ,
not christian, but that, I believe, is OK, as there will be other occasions on which Bible and Christianity will be recalled), and can serve as an openning for what is to come, as it, presently, summs up quite well where I am "coming from" and - where I want to "arrive":
One of The Kabbalah Centre's teachers shared with me this week the following quandary:
Let's say you've really been going against your nature in a particular area of life: Restriction, self-control, whatever you want to call it. And then, let's say, you lose control, short-circuit, give in to your selfish desires. How far back do you fall? Back to the beginning of when you started restricting? Or just a little ways back?

It’s a great question. And the answer lies in another kabbalistic saying:
greater than the 'sin' itself is the sin of guilt.
When a person makes a mistake in judgment - hurts, cheats, lies, steals, etc - the negative action takes but a few seconds or minutes. The guilt however, the self-deprication and bad memories can last a lifetime. And while it’s vital to the correction process to feel pain about our misdeeds, it is just as vital that we move on. Otherwise it’s like days, weeks, months or years of disconnect.
This week, use the energy of Chanukah (the holiday of miracles) to think about a past event that you're still berating yourself over. Imagine your life not without that event, but without the memory of that event. How would it change your story?
Most of us hold onto these memories, because in an unconscious way, we allow our past to define us.
I'm a divorcee.
I'm a Ph.D.
I'm a recovering bulemic.
I'm a former model.
I was on Star Search in 1988...
(This is the week to recognize the story in your life whose ending is long overdue. Use the Name below and the miraculous energy of the week to pick up the pieces and move on, once and for all.
72 Name of the Week - "SHIN - HET - HEY" (to be read from R to L / hebraic; wish I could copy the characters, too, but I cannot) = NO GUILT
I recall negative deeds from my past. I reflect on some of my more unpleasant traits. I feel the pain that I have caused others. I ask the Light to eradicate all my negative attributes. The force called repentance spiritually repairs my past sins and diminishes the dark side of my nature.)
So - what do you say?!?!
