    Hi Richard -

    >> But there still seems to be something stopping me
    from talking too much. <<

    >That isn't always a bad thing. Your inner prompting
    on the matter may be the best guide, especially if
    you're prone to over-talking.<
    You're definitely right on that and I do have to work on it, but since
    yesterday I have seen why exactly there is a negative component to this...
    Maybe
    hard to explain, some might get it.... In *my* case (I must stress), underneath
    a determinedly unconventional exterior, it seems there is a group-think
    conventionality junkie in control of some of my behaviour! It really worries
    what the neighbours think. It worries what the neighbours-in-chief, the
    Official
    Authorities of Religion and State, think too. It worries that the general
    religion of our time is scientific-sceptical and closed-minded. It sees that
    I'm
    cutting my ties with 'healthy middle class norms' once and for all, in
    pursuit of something bigger, and it worries I'll be laughed at and/or
    condemned.
    Now I can see this thing I've started to put it a little in its place, and
    that process will be complete at Step 2.

    So that's that! What a cool thing this mirror is. I know I shouldn't share
    any of it - but there's 141 things I still *haven't* shared, so I figure I'm
    pretty safe! And talking about it on here did help, so thanks to my
    respondents...

    >It's nice to talk with others of similar ilk, but
    its best to err on the side of caution whenever
    people have no apparent interest in these matters,
    especially when it comes to practical issues rather
    than just theorising.<

    Yes, you said it. Such a strange mechanism was at work in me, I haven't yet
    unravelled it. It seemed that a certain part of me wanted to talk about this,
    not to help people, but actually to change the entire groupthink of the world
    towards accepting things that are not conventionally accepted before I could
    even begin. In other words I needed to be given permission from the group
    and from 'Authority' (in inverteds because the *real* authority wouldn't mind!)
    before I could even start the training. It's scary to be without this
    mechanism, but by heaven, it's a great relief!

    > Enjoy! Best of luck with the journey!<

    You too man, mind how you go. Jason
