- The thread of self-forgiveness
- I forgive myself for I am different, I forgive myself for trauma I experienced in childhood, which has influenced my whole life. I forgive myself for fear I have experienced, which was extremely strong and still I am struggling with that. I forgive myself for time I didn´t spend with my grandfather...

- Reincarnation
- Oh, if only that was my first mistake... Fair enough, though, I had conceded earlier that there is this other usage. I first went with the one I was more (or at all) familiar with, both in English and the other two languages I speak that use that word exclusively the way I thought at first you...

- What's in a name?
- Mine's the callsign I had for nearly 20 years in naval aviation.

- i shall call this "brainstorm"
- I have a book by Ram Dass (who recently passed away) titled "Be Here Now". He describes many different types of meditation, endorsing them all but also teaching that since we are different as individuals, we will gravitate toward different styles. It kind of sounds like this thread is also...
