Monthly reminder that if you strike up a conversation with someone for about a minute or two they'll say something a little awkward because they always keep one foot on their shadow at all times. Under normal circumstances, you'll get a sense to avoid steering towards that thing, but this time you must have courage to do so. Then when they respond it will happen again. Steer towards it. And again. Very shortly a portal will open into a spiritual place. There is more knowledge immediately retrievable in a normie than a week of responsibly curated Twitter doomscrolling. They will not be speaking eloquently because you're in a realm of the unuttered and this room has been closed for years. Do not open the windows just yet. They will realize it sounds very silly to another person which will help them realize they should leave that room. I learned this from a medieval book and tried it twice. It worked both times. I've been scared to do it again and ultimately I'm a mental miser who would rather collect philosophy facts than help people. But I'm going to try to change that.
Welcome to the continuous unfolding of the eternally immediate experience. All things are delicately interconnected. Change within you will change things around you.
Your Aura becomes magnetic when you develop gravity, not charm, not flash, but weight. When your words are measured, your tone is steady, and your actions align with your identity, people feel pulled toward you without knowing why. Magnetism is just keeping your word.
becoming less reactive is a big part of growth and decreasing stress. sometimes this type of avoidance can be looked at as lack of interest or uncaring, but it isn't. if you let everything get you worked up, you're damaging your mind, body and soul.
Ouspensky on reincarnation, eternal recurrence, and the dimensions of time and eternity (the 4th and 5th dimensions).

Flirting is a way of life. Do you smile at the pretty girls, compliment the older ladies, or wink at the moon? How about the birds, when they sing, do you whistle back in tune?
Or what about when driving, do you have a smooth touch & no fear of pushing your car to its limits? In business, do you dare to demand what you want? Are you bold with your plans? Does risk excite your spirit?
In conversation, do you say what you mean & speak with your chest? Do you deliver the risky joke without qualms who will take offense?
Do you stroll with your head held high - do your steps feel weightless? When you stand, are you relaxed or are you tense?
Do you treat strangers like you’re reacquainting with an old friend? Do you ever dare to divulge your well kept secrets? Are you present, there in the moment, or are you living in your head?
Do you breathe romance into everything you do, see the beauty in the mundane, & leave a trail of unrelenting positivity wherever you venture? You see, flirting isn’t just what you do to have someone fall for you - it’s what a healthy spirit does when they’re in love with life, & I will continue flirting into the afterlife

and if you can’t find an answer, maybe try letting it go
