I just sent off an email to a friend who is frustrated and disappointed in me for not returning their emails. I wanted to post my response email because I feel it's something that is showing up more and more with how I feel with my friends, and people new and old in my life. And really, i just want to be understood, so i'm tagging a few of you who I greatly respect.
Dear friend,
My focus, is on one thing, and you know what that thing is. I am now telling everyone that I happen to become closer with, to understand that unless we are sharing space together, it is not as important to me to keep up relationships, then keeping up on my mission. For me, right now, its what's most important.
I'm not bothered by what label is given to me for this seeming insensitivity. I understand It seems unfair, and that's my fault for not communicating this up front.
As this is unusual, I would rather not get close to any one person because of the patterns or expectations of "friendship". For me, the most important thing in my life, is doing whatever it will take to bring about the reality for all to "Access Abundance" without a price-tag. I don't want to spend time making, or hanging, with friends, unless those friends are working directly with me on a project, or a project in alignment to further said cause like the TV show crew, or other movement related thangs. These people are becoming my closest, and with who I love with. Personally, i prefer Facebook, lots of supportive friends, and it's not on a time frame. I can keep up, on my time, and it's not long mails. Love Facebook.
We are emergent creatures. Explorers by nature. I am ok with outgrowing people. I'm ok with being outgrown. There are many people in this world to explore and experience. And at this moment, i am interested in the ones that share my inspiration and passion for facilitating the emergence of a RBE.
I only want to be contacted when something is needed from me, and visa versa. Nothing wrong with this in my book. It's efficient, and productive, and I attract others who share the same wants.
I do a good job communicating this now up front before anyone wants my time. I tell them there may come a day when I won't respond to your email. Matter of fact I told my roommate this yesterday. I'm in a monthly men's group he co-founded. Totally in touch, we hug/love each other daily, and share intimately often. But he's not on board with the movement yet, so he gets limited parts of me here and there. If he were, we would be obviously working on ideas to further the direction of an RBE.
Truthfully, what once excited me, lamenting on human potential, spirituality, and quantum talk, now boors me to no end because it's talk that doesn't seem to go anywhere. I'd rather feel excitement, enthusiasm, and gratitude and express this with a loving embrace, done. But when it comes to talk, I'm interested in a new conversation, and more so, doing something about it.
In the grand cosmic scope of things, it's ok. It's our cultural conditioning due to the current socio-economic paradigm that creates the beliefs and presupposed needs or expectations that are required be be a "friend".
When the new socio-economic paradigm based on unlimited abundance for all is created, there will be no more guiltful relationships. That is one person sharing with another for scarcity reasons, then that person feeling indebted to that person for extending generosity. You have been very generous with me, and I feel kind of indebted to you. That sucks. I shouldn't feel this way.
To be ever expanding and changing. Emergent, as new information, people, and experiences come forth.
The people that "get it" regarding the emergence of an Resource Based Economy, and get active, get my time, and more. These are the people I resonate with and will bend over backward to help when it is needed. These are also the people I create, activate, and play with.
I hope this can one day resonate with you. And that you can simply appriciate me for who i am, and what i am doing.
In Peace
