    One of my blockages in polarizing positively is that being all sweet and filled with love and light doesn't feel 'cool.' At times, it feels corny, even pathetic. It feels like being some hippie cliche. This might sound silly, but it's something part of me honestly feels that I want to balance.

    On a superficial level, polarizing positively feels at odds with the cynicism and nihilism that the last few generations tend to associate with hipness, world weariness, transcendence. This might seem shallow, but it does make me feel more alienated from most other 20-somethings.

    On another level, maybe this aversion to feeling overly gushy in embodying positivity is a distorted attempt to balance compassion with wisdom. Balancing the 'gullibility and naivete' that Ra described as being 'characteristic of those who love wholeheartedly' might be important work for some entities. That naivete might go hand in hand with that gushiness.

    Do any of you ever feel like all the positivity seems too fluffy and overly sentimental? How do you get over this?
