A true relationship is a mosaic of adjustments, compromises, sacrifices, maturity, understanding, commitment, patience,
tolerance and unconditional love. It is painted with tears, laughter, smiles and sprinkled with beautiful moments spent
together. It is not all about happiness but also holding each other’s hands when sadness creeps in. It is all about two
people who are madly in love with each other and have a strong determination to make their relationship work by en-
during each other’s imperfections, overlooking flaws and cherishing the differences…

Thanks to Ramanjit for sharing with me this link. :)
To read the full article, go to the link. Are you a "natural born" artist/creative person? If most or all the traits and characteristics described you can truly relate to, you are likely a true creative.

I've been a highly creative person ever since I can remember, a "natural born" creative person. Those who "learn to be creative" are NOT the same as those who are "born creative". Born creatives have creativeness already built IN them. People who are not born creative cannot and do not really understand this difference.

People are gifted in many ways. Being highly creative is just one way to be gifted. Natural born creatives are uniquely different but I think gifted people (which I believe we all are) who pursue and cultivate their gift in whatever way they are, have unique traits and characteristics specific with them and their gift. If we haven't already, it's important for each of us to explore ourselves to find how we are gifted and then aspire to fulfill the gift within us. There's a certain amount of self confidence and self worth that comes with knowing who you are, what you were born destined to be AND then BEING that which you were destined to be/do.

"We may "learn" to do many things in our lifetime
And we may learn to do them well,
But when we go with the flow
With what's within us aglow,
We will then be able to excel." ~ #ArtsieladieQuotes

I cannot speak on other gifts I'm not gifted with, but I can speak about being a natural born creative person with expertise based on first hand and lived experience because I am one. I can relate to every one of these distinctive traits of a highly creative person.

01) They daydream. - A LOT!
13) They get out of their own heads. - Oh yeah, for sure! Daydreaming and being able to see things from outside of me, looking in.
I am a daydreamer. Daydreaming is allowing the mind to wander without limitations, without restraints, so your thoughts can be free to embrace more than just the possible, but also explore what the conscious mind perceives to be the impossible. Lifting and eliminating all restrictions so the mind can flow completely freely is necessary for the creative mind.

02) They observe everything. - EVERYTHING I am exposed to.
I am acutely aware of and in tune with my surroundings. I am usually always fully aware of what's going on around me. I've noticed how many people are completely oblivious to what's going on around them and I can't relate to this. I notice even the smallest and very subtle changes. Something even the slightest out of place, I will pick up on.

03) They work the hours that work for them. - No schedule if I can possibly help it!
14) They lose track of the time. - Especially when I am really into a creative project.
I have no schedule and even if I have to have some sort of schedule, begrudgingly, I always try my darnedest to make sure there's as much flexibility as possible. When a wave of creativeness comes over me, I want to be able to go with it, at least enough so I have the roots of it firmly planted so I can return to it.

I eat when I'm hungry and I sleep when I'm tired. I do not eat breakfast at 7:00 am just because it's supposed to be time for breakfast. Heck, I don't even eat foods that are supposed to be for breakfast unless it's what I want in the moment. I may and have cooked a dinner that normally most would say it wasn't 'correct' for breakfast. Eh, why should breakfast be certain foods? Why should dinner be for that matter? I eat what I'm hankering for when I'm hungry without regards to what time of the day it is. ..And I don't look at the clock and say, "Gee, it's 10:00 pm, time to go to sleep." No, I go to sleep when my body tells me I need sleep.

When I am really into a creative project and everything is just flowing and coming together, the clock can tick away while I keep on with what I'm doing. Should this be interrupted by something or someone, I'm not likely to be too happy. I do not allot time to complete a project either. The project and the time it takes to make it with the best possible results decides the amount of time that will be spent.

04) They take time for solitude. - Absolutely; detest invasion of 'my time' or 'my space', and one who suffocates and is always clinging or hanging over you. It irritates me to no end!
18) They make time for mindfulness. - Sure thing! I always like and make the time for to spend with myself.
We creatives need to stay connected with ourselves, both our conscious and our subconscious selves and when with others around, there are distractions that will keep us from being able to do this on the level we need to.

05) They turn life's obstacles around. - Right. Turn a bad situation into something to work creatively with.

06) They seek out new experiences. - Always liking trying/learning something new; detest repetition and the monotonous and mundane.

07) They "fail up." - Yup! Fail.. try again. Fail.. try again. etc..

08) They ask the big questions. - Yeah, want answers? Ask questions!

09) They people-watch. - Love to observe peeps, one can learn so much!

10) They take risks. - Yes! Push the limits!
I may not plan on jumping out of a plane any time soon, but let me see something wrong being done and I will not hesitate to make it be known, even if and especially knowing I will be ostracised and persecuted when I do.

..And even if someone's track record isn't all that good, I will likely give them the benefit of the doubt and be willing to give them another shot.. and another.. and as many as it takes if I know they are trying and/or want to improve themselves. Knowing first hand it usually takes several or even many tries to finally get on the right track, I understand that others deserve the same courtesy.

If I love someone I will risk being hurt because to truly love and to experience love, one has to take the risk of getting hurt. If one isn't willing to Love fully and completely, then they aren't ever going to know the meaning of true Love. "One can only be hurt as deeply as they Love." ~ #ArtsieladieQuotes

11) They view all of life as an opportunity for self-expression. - Always! The possibilities are endless!

12) They follow their true passions. - Absolutely! ..And if I'm met with opposition to keep me from my passions, I become agitated and very unhappy. My passions, my heart, pretty much the same.

15) They surround themselves with beauty. - Yes! Beauty but not defined by monetary value, rather beauty money cannot buy. I like simple and natural beauty.

16) They connect the dots. - Right. Having vision.
Having vision especially to be able to see that which isn't even in existence yet, and oftentimes, most others can't even begin to see even remnants of.

17) They constantly shake things up. - New experiences equal new ideas, new concepts and 'new' keeps away staleness and stagnation.
New perpetuates growth and advancement. I don't like repetition at all. It's monotonous.

"The trouble with most of us is that we would rather be ruined by praise than saved by criticism." ~ Norman Vincent Peale

Bingo! True! The truth will come out eventually. It always does. Lying and sugar coating the truth just delays the inevitable
and usually delaying the inevitable by lying and/or sugar coating the truth, makes the truth much worse to find out when it
finally does surface because then there's all the lying that needs to be dealt with in addition to the truth. Not to mention,
lying and supporting lying, eats at a person within making them prisoner to lies when they could have been living free by tel-
ling the truth. <3

14 Different Methodologies of Mind Control

Mind Control/Manipulation: How is it used to create an "obedient and submissive" People? (Read to educate yourself.)

These are the most necessary to understand because they are the most influential over mass consciousness.

1) Obfuscation: Just basic confusion of one thing for another- a smoke and mirrors game.

2) World View Poisoning: Conditioning the way people view human nature and their own self-value.

3) Conditioning of Primal Fear: The exploitation of primal fears.

4) Divide and Conquer Strategy: Highlight any perceived differences between people and then exploit those differences to create infighting so they are easier to control and conquer.

5) Indoctrination of Education System: A left brain form of Nazis called it mastery learning. grade school, HS and university. Trivium and quadrivium education could counteract this.

6) Controlled Opposition: Basic dialectics – dialectical mechanics or Hegelianism Creating conflict that you already have an outcome management system for. Create the conflict and wait for a type of reaction to the conflict (usually chaotic that demands a resolution) and then you step in and resolve it. Artificial conflict resolution.

7) Monetary System of Control: Debt based fiat currency fractional reserve banking a system of illusion that we call money yet people believe in it like its a religion or god. People seem to be the most powerless to come out of. It exists purely in the mind.

8) Control of Mass Media: If you can control the info that people get to see hear and read you control their perception of reality. If you limit the scope of what they can take into their minds and awareness you limit their possibilities of solutions. Human perception management.

9) Food and Medicine: attack on the physical aspects of the body relates to how our brain development goes. You affect thought and consciousness you are what you eat. Use techniques that are damaging to consciousness through the modern medical system.

10) Illusion of Time: Very important for people to grasp. Play on people’s seeming inability to live in true present moment awareness– getting people to live in regret over the past or anxiety over the future. Its a fear based technique. Takes us out of true present awareness. Being fully present now to take on what is happening now. If our consciousness can be manipulated into always looking into what has happened. It takes away effectiveness of dealing with the current situation.

11) The DHR Factor: Denial, Hassle, Ridicule: What other people perceive about you. Denial, hassle ridicule factor. Things are fine the way they are I don’t want to rock the boat because I may have to deal with hassle of other people. The hassle free zone is– I don’t want all the uncomfortable aspects of life that come with standing up for truth. These are all fear based. Heightening those three forms of mental instability. Trap of inactivity and not really doing anything to make things better.

12) Religion: We need to understand these last three the best. Religion is a form of binding. To tie back Re-Ligare tying back. Forms of modern religion are mind control based on astro-theology. Giving people an exoteric version of something that was once esoteric or internal. Government is the binding on the left brain… religion is the binding of the right brain.

13) Use of Subversive Symbolism: Based on ancient sacred symbolism. Based on symbols that have been with us from antiquity. Solar symbolism, life force symbols, energy, blood, or anything we need for existence and life. They use these in modern institutions— banks, police, media, stores. We’re drenched in it. Basic symbols have a powerful psychic influence. They can speak to us without words. A wordless form of communication. Connects to occultism.

14) Problem-Reaction-Solution (Chaos Sorcery): A mass demonstration or a public display of the dark aspects of the Hegelian dialectic. Hegelian dialectic can be used in a positive or negative sense. Chaos sorcery or false flag terrorism. This is ritual magic being used openly in the light of day. You are creating a chaotic situation in the light of day and you know it will elicit an extreme reaction of fear and chaos that demands order be brought as soon as possible. You are manipulating the fear in the limbic system– people are not in a state that they can reason. They are demanding solutions purely out of emotions. They are in a reactive mode of consciousness. They want the outcome of the game known before the game is played. Interject chaos, you know the reaction its going to cause and you know. A leap in consciousness will subvert this technique. This technique works over and over again. Humanity won’t wake up. 9-11 was chaos sorcery.

"Love does NOT mean someone is given a green light to use and abuse another who loves them." ~ Quotes-By-Artsieladie

#Love Love is the most beautiful, most wonderful, most powerful, most magical, most precious gift we are all blessed with. We are born with it within us; we live with it within us; we will eventually pass on with it in us. If we aren't feeling it within us, then we are not allowing it to blossom, to bloom, to Live... we are blocking it somehow. If we aren't feeling it, we need to look inside ourselves to find it, to find out why, and to see how/why we are keeping it from blooming and then take steps to set it free within us, to fill our hearts with Living Love.

Love generates and attracts more Love. Love is the magical force that connects and bonds us all. When we nurture the Love within us, we can then feel the Oneness Connection and when we truly feel and know this connection, then we seek not any harm against those we are connected through Love with. Only when we all allow ourselves to know and feel Love, will we all be a part of the Oneness Connection of Love, affording us to all live in peaceful harmony with One another.

Whenever we exhibit such things as jealousy, resentment, egotism, apathy, selfishness, indifference, judgment, lying, hatred, vengeance, distrust, etc., then we are denying the Love within us to Live.

Whenever we exhibit caring, kindness, compassion, forgiveness, gratitude, acceptance, empathy, humility, truth, selflessness, etc., then we are embracing and nurturing Love to Live within us.

Love Lives within my heart. How about yours? Let's all bond together in the Oneness Connection of Love! The Love in me Loves the Love in you! <3

Projection

<img:https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/t1.0-9/10004036_1403423526591008_100765715_n.jpg>

Ah, the "projectors". VERY familiar with the type. That which they harbour within themselves they do not like, they then think they can "project"
what they don't like within themselves onto others, instead of taking the initiative and working on themselves to rid themselves of that which
they do not like. They try to take the easy way out instead and "project" their bad stuff onto others, especially those they envy because they
don't feed the same dark traits.

More and more, I am seeing Anonymous and The Pirate Party mentioned in the same sentence. In historical perspective, this is for good reasons. Make no mistake about it: I love Anonymous and deeply respect and admire their courage, commitment, and ability to deliver time and again..... (read on at the link)

"The Shadowed Heart"

You hide in the shadows,
But I always know you're there.
You play pretend, an imposter,
Because you do not dare
To show your true face,
The real that's in you.
You play your silly games
That I can see right through.

But even in your fake,
I can see your real,
Despite all your efforts,
Your pretend cannot steal.
Because I clearly see you
Not through or with my eyes,
But with my loving heart,
From which you can't disguise.

I do not understand why
You feel this need to hide,
When there's so much beauty
Within you deep inside.
Why do you insist upon
The dimming of your Light,
When it really wants to shine,
Luminously and bright.

I wish that you could see
Your heart from my perspective,
You would know then your beauty.
You'd change your whole objective.
I get angry and so frustrated
From all the things you do,
Because you insist on hiding
The real and best of you.

"Bonded By Love"


What works for you, may not for me.
What works for me, may not for you.
For you are you and I am me,
There are differences we can see.
But in our hearts there is Light
Derived from Love, burning bright,
Our common bond of no shame,
We are One and Love's the Name.
