@WelcometoReality not easy for an abuse survivor. 

Not easy for anyone ? but yeah especially if you have trauma. It's not like you have to let go of everything at once. Just that which you're willing to let go of now.

I don't know that. If you're not engaging in some of it then you don't need to let it go.

How about stop assuming bullshit? 

I spent majority of my life in abusive relationships not knowing what love meant. Or what respect meant. 

So the top list is helping me to understand healthy forms of love.

I've definitely been guilty of many on the lower list.

 

The top list is extensive and good imo. 

The ones that I resonated with most is nr 14 and 17. 

What does nr 26 mean to you?

I agree with everything except Love is biased....a bias is judgment. But other than that GREAT POST. This post should be studied and used as a reference tool. GREAT POST!!!!


You are a selfless LACK OF APPEARANCE, that CONSTRUCTS AN APPEARANCE. But that appearance can disappear and reappear and we call that change, we call it time, we call it space, we call it distance, we call distinctness, we call it other. But notice...this appearance, is a SELF. A SELF IS A CONSTRUCTION!!! 

So if you want to know the TRUTH OF THE CONSTRUCTION. Just deconstruct the construction!!!! No point in playing these mind games!!! No point in creating needless complexity!!! The truth of what you are is a BLANK!!!! A selfless awareness....then that means there is NO OTHER, and everything you have ever perceived was JUST AN APPEARANCE, A MIRAGE, AN ILLUSION, IMAGINARY. 

Everything that appears....appears out of a lack of appearance/void/no-thing, non-sense (can't be sensed because there is nothing to sense). That is what you are, and what arises...is made of that. So nonexistence, arises/creates existence. And thus everything is solved.
