    Dear Peter:

    How interesting, how you phrase it.. our parents templates for understanding the sacred, or templates for understanding the unholy?

    Peter, you mentioned not long ago that you are in your third quarter of life. Does it mean you are 75, or older?

    Not sure.

    About my longing that I could reach you, a seemingly unavailable person for a personal vs cosmic connection..

    I can handle this longing.

    Still, I wonder, what does peter looks like, what does he sound like… the voice, the visual.

    I have no expectations now. None really, just wondering: if I could see Peter’s face, if I could hear Peter’s voice before he collides and unites with the eternal cosmic..

    Wouldn’t it be something, just a glimpse into the Temporal before it disappears (or appears) into the Eternal.

    To put it simply, Peter: I have a desire to hear your voice before you merge your Temporal with the Eternal. It’s just what I want. Expressed simply: I want to hear your VOICE.

    And I want you to hear my voice. It’d be a dream come true, something I want.

    Of course, what you want matters.

    just saying, it’s something I want. A desire expressed.

    Expressing desires is okay. Is it, Peter?

    Hi Anita

    How interesting, how you phrase it.. our parents templates for understanding the sacred, or templates for understanding the unholy?

    Of course templates work both ways, thus the challenge. Relating to the Jungian path of integration of the mother and father complexes/archetypes where the to good mother dies to be replaced by the stepmother representing the shadow side of the mother archetype. The nurturing force turned cold, jealous, or punishing. How love can wound and protection become control…. The “evil stepmother” not just a villain but a symbol of the inner work required to reclaim nurturing on one’s own terms. To become one’s own mother, one’s own source of care and compassion.

    As to the desire to hear my Voice… my first thought is that what I have been sharing on this site hasn’t come across as my voice. That may be… I might say posting on this site is a attempt to find my voice – to “discover” what I believe and live it.

    Expressing ourselves is of course okay and right. I am sorry if I disappoint but feel strongly that in the forth quarter I am called to the “path of going into the woods”.

    Dear Peter:

    You do not disappoint me. Not at all (I find myself smiling and feeling affection for you as I am type this). I don’t feel hurt or anger. I feel content that I was able to freely express to you my desire to hear your voice, and pleased that you responded the way that aligns with what you need and want. It’s an honest, respectful exchange. Honesty and respect do not disappoint me

    I will hear your voice though- Forever and ever, so may it be- In the heart of the One, eternally free.
