Cheers thanks Helen. How is it all going for you? Did you enjoy the Thialand summit ?

@Mandy Sandhu Thanks Mandy

@Gareth Roden thanks Gareth

Thanks Ian. Great comment ! Certainly cannot disagree with you there. I suppose when we look at it that way, Love is everything and everywhere yet it has, no specific start or end time, (has no time), is in no specific place (no place) and is no thing...yet everything. I am getting way too philosophical here :) Great comment.

@Mandy Sandhu Thanks Mandy. Well said :) in how you said it !

Thanks for the post Ian. Much obliged and find it a very interesting topic of conversation. I agree and also think we also can subordinate our higher values to those of society, other people (such as our parents, siblings, teachers etc), as we further "separate" our thoughts and ideals growing older and then can neglect our own. That meaning, it is not until we find our highest values and belief system, that we start to look at our purpose. Our shadow values on the other hand, I think can dictate a lot in times of trauma or tragedy. May be they are intrinsically flawed in design to "protect" in these such times, yet can be the cause of so much grief. I really don't know. I do like to think that we naturally grow "closer" to our more authentic selves with greater self awareness, our higher values evolving with new thought, emotions, actions and experiences and on what our "purpose" is. Either way, the compass as values and purpose or purpose and values, I can hear myself getting philosophical. Thanks again for the message, very interesting to contemplate.
