Not saying I’m more fucking honest and trustworthy than you assholes…but probably.​

Are you saying the more profane one is the more a person can trust them?
For the first year I worked here I was the only one who would swear. Finally one of them told me in private "I'm so glad you freely curse. It's giving me courage to do it". Hahahahahaha.....Ahhh....I feel so sorry for all of these righteous peoples here at the office. They do suffer a lot by not giving voice to their cursing!

I've not seen the research behind this idea that people who use curse words are more honest than the ones who don't. But from what I've seen - it makes sense.

Now...there is credible research demonstrating those people who use curse words to express themselves have better health and lower stress levels than those who don't.

Apparently all the happy people curse. :lol:
Hahahahaha.

It also shows a certain level of not caring what other people think of you, like you demonstrated…not saying that if you don’t curse you are not your authentic self, but you get my drift.

Something else I am...​

YES!
I had no idea there was a word for it...
I was watching thunderstorms move through the area in a neighboring county from me as the storm followed the river that separates the counties.It was better than a fireworks display there was so much flashing and popping. I marvelled once again at the powers of the Elements to dance with each other. CloudWater dancing with LightningFire and making ThunderAir dance as sound. All fun...all play...for them. Also...as usual...I reflected on the fact Earth ...the Element Earth....was not "up there" playing with them. I'm a Taurus and an Earth girl and I don't often "play"....so I was feeling left out as an Earth Element. ...and then it hit me... Earth IS the playground for which the other Elements play.This gave me enormous satisfaction as I was able to step back and see the grand show for what it is. We are all deeply connected as we dance....

I watched this last night.
Very good. Very frightening.
Very relatable to me in many aspects besides the sleep paralysis part.
I think that's why the activity doesn’t continue.
I can push the negative entities away and leave my body.
These poor souls get stuck and tortured by ghosts and other entities.

Something else I am...​

Count me in too. Thunders really amuse me, it's like a sudden feeling of exaltation inside me mixed with that all embracing wind and leafs going crazy anunciating that a storm is coming. Down south from were i live, storms are pretty usual, and it's always that same feeling, and rain that seems to come from the sides rather than upside down.

Totally, same here.
It’s very rare that I find the darkness threatening…and then there is usually a reason.

I’m also a [FONT=Century Gothic, Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]severe homichlophiliac.

[Skarekrow]

Actually it is when I am walking in the fog that I feel the most at peace (homichlophilia is love of fog).
It is also one of the few times when I really feel grounded, because for the most part I have lived my life in-between.
Fog, lightening/thunder, deep woods, heavy rain, windy days - all ground me when I cannot.
Go figure….I’m sure @Kgal or @sprinkles or [MENTION=884]Solongo[/MENTION] can explain it better than me?

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]? Matthew 6:25-27​

Maybe because all of these things are a return to balance. Lightning and thunder are a discharge of yang energy - one polarity of electric charge becomes too out of balance with the other and eventually is brought back into equilibrium with a lightning strike.

Rain is water releasing yang energy and returning back to its normal yin energy - this is because heat, which is yang, causes the water to become excited and evaporate and rise up into the sky. When it releases this yang energy it falls as rain and becomes yin again.

Fog is very yin because it happens from cool moist air, and makes things dank and hard to see. This happens when the air gives up its yang energy so that what you have left is the yin which was already present.

A deep forest is very yin because all the trees have had their yang stage and begin to produce a very yin environment. Shade, coolness, leaf litter, and decay which passively feeds the carpet of life on the ground.

Beautifully said, thank you.

The Element Water is said to be tied with Emotion.

As we are the feelers - the empaths - the intuitives - it would seem that Water helps our emotions to flow and allow more peace to settle within us. The Water in our bodies connects deeply with Water and we feel at One with all around us? The fog damps down the energy vibrations of others and grounds them down into the Earth therefore not affecting you?

These are ideas coming to mind.

All I know is I am merged with Water and am deeply grateful for it being in my life no matter what form it takes.
