How is your social life??

[sjel]

Are you satisfied with your current relationships? Or are you lonely? Do you have friends with whom you discuss the Law of One?

I have a girlfriend, we have a very close relationship and have both a spiritual background.
We te on a healing and growing path together, this provides for lots of challenges but also its much easier to get through!
I am very satisfied with my relationship
We are also both into the LOO and explore it together.

Then i have a couple of friends, not many, two very close ones and a few that i dont see that often.
They are also very spiritually oriented and know the Ra material.
It used to be different 10 years ago, but most friendships broke sooner or later in a way.
I still meet these old friends sometimes, but its not that close anymore.

Apart from that there are two or three spiritual communities that i participate maybe once in a week.

My son however is absolutely anti-spiritual, he runs for his life as soon as he hears something spiritual

I've always been kind of a loner that avoids social groups yet always attracted to myself a few good friends I truly resonated with in all environment I've been into sooner or later. Like I think at my workplace I would come across as someone not very social, yet me and the guy with whom I am in my office probably socialize more together than most more social people even do themselves although they all talk a bit more to everyone. So I guess I mainly don't like superficial talk and tend to attract more sincere friendships. I don't really have a problem with anyone. It's more like I got two states, one where my mind is blank with nothing to say and I listen to others or another where to get me to stfu can be a struggle. I usually don't really filter anything I say.

Most people who like me usually were drawn to me and not the other way around, just like I more often than not get called to do things more than I feel a need to do things with others. I got a few good friends which is more than enough for me.

I don't know if I've ever felt alone in my entire life, not so long ago I actually pondered that a whole lot and I think if I ever did I was really really young and that's about it. I also tend to not miss anyone, which I guess can be hurtful to others, because it seems heavily deep rooted within me that partings are a natural part of existence. Souls meet and part and meet and part and meet and part endlessly across eternity and I tend to enjoy the moments I have without feeling empty when they have passed later on, am kind of simply always appreciating the present moment without thinking it should or shouldn't be otherwise. I think my soul distilled aloneness good enough it does not have such a great need for others to feel whole, but that's from much before this lifetime. In the idea that we're all One it makes sense to me to feel whole with just myself, so I don't think there's really something to distill with that as it does not prevent me to appreciate my interactions with other-selves either.

About the LOO, I kind of talk of it with anyone so long it's fitting. Had a particular friend with whom it was deeply explored and others it's always more light and circumstantial. I don't really mention it for the sake of mentioning it though, and only do so if I feel called to. Like I said, I don't really filter much of what I say so I merely observe what people inspire me to say.

If you struggle with aloneness I'd say you just really imposed yourself circumstances that would force you to work through this as you pretty much need to be in a carefully picked space/time to make that even happen. I don't think I've made any new friend in this life, just met people who already were what I would call friends because it was the choice we made before incarnating and then gravity does its job, much like how we all were drawn to this place by spiritual gravity.

Same here, I don't like small talk either. Someone at uni told me "you don't seem to like people" because I don't ever initiate conversations with anyone. I would but there is no point.

I actually told an atheist classmate about only pretending to be religious but never talked to him beyond that for fear of my parents finding out.

And I agree with your point about picking this space/time though I am not exactly fond of your choice of words (impose and force)

Given how much of a recluse I am, lack of friends doesn't really bother me. Lack of a BF on the other hand..

The only friend I made at uni came to me asking to be my teammate under the pretext I was the only normal looking person, was kind of a funny way to meet.

He was from France and didn't really know anyone so he was looking for a friend. When I met him he struggled with succeeding because of his anxiety, could prove to me before an exam he knew everything better than me to then mess up his exam because too anxious to focus, andt then by the end of our program my easygoingness rubbed off on him and he performed a whole lot better with much less hardwork simply because less anxious and apparently anxiety was a big issue ever since his childhood. Now he's back in France and we don't talk anymore. Example of how I always end up drawing someone to me for mutual service.

I kind of crave a GF but not all that much, more like I can like to entertain the thought of it sometimes.

lol  That's a lovely story  Minya !

I do not like small talk either and when I was a teenager and young adult I could become tongue tied when I was at dinners outside with people,  i really wanted to die on place  lol !!

Then much much later I started to develop this humor where suddenly everyone at a table was like laughing so loud, I couldn't believe my luck !!    so today I have intense moments of hilarious moments with friends interspaced with intense solitude     which is good for painting, but last night I was translating in french a Ra session for two of my nieces who have become addicted to Ra and that passage was :

" The quickest way to learn is to deal with other-selves. This is a much greater catalyst than dealing with the self. Dealing with the self is akin to living with what you would call mirrors."    If that isn't the truth !!!!  lol

I still can't really handle family reunions other than being awkwardly silent waiting for the night to end.

At the end I think it's "without" and not "with".

Very nice of you to translate for your nieces! I think I saw a french translation of the Ra material on L/L Research website but just the title "Law of One" was already somewhat a bad translation so I don't know about the content.

Edit :

If you're interested, the french translation of "La Loi Une" can be found here :

http://www.llresearch.org/library.aspx

That honestly makes me laugh a tad too much. I bet it'd score good with feminists so long they're not teachers or would like want the title to be readable. I don't really have much hope for it with how a 3 word title was messed up so badly it's not even grammatically correct.

La loi = The law
Une loi = A law
La loi une = The law a / Considering there's a known context that makes it known that une refers to one feminine noun like an identity as one identity, then you'd get The law One in feminine form which is not correct either.
Une loi la = A law the
Loi de Un = Law of One
La loi de Un = The Law of One
