whats that all about?have we become that shallow?</p> <p>life has become too compicated,too far removed from the natural ways of nature.if you want water you have to find the best warter supplyer,then electricity supplyer,not to mention morgages.we live in our remote control houses with our automatic ,processed,prepared microwave food,steralised from 99% of all germs,smelling like deoderised atifical bublewrapped humans.no wonder we are so fucked up!</p> <p>no we cant go back to living in mud huts,but there has to be some way to marry the best of the old and the best of the new?what do you think?????? </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://dasrah.blog.co.uk/2006/05/14/the_lost_world~797762/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:dasrah.blog.co.uk,2006-04-11:/2006/04/11/dreams_of_dad~718367/dasrah2006-04-11T02:23:27+02:002006-04-11T02:23:27+02:00 <p>ive been dreaming of my father every night this week and have found myself waking up in tears,feeling bad.Maybe i sould start at the begining,my father devorced my mother when i was 11,he left and for a lot of years i didnt have a real relationship with him.It was hard because my mother was mentally ill and often tryed to commit suicide.but after many years we got backtogether and we are very close now.but growing up he would be the first to admit me was less than available to me emotionally,and years later we have talked about it and tryed to work it out together.I dont blame him for the past,i know he was young and inexperienced and was carrying a lot of baggage of his own about,and he has tried his best to tell me how much he loves me,but for some reason it just dosnt go away and i think thats what all the dreams are about.In every dream i have had this week each scenario my father dosnt react as i want him to and is less than comforting and supporting.I guess that sub-consiously thats how i still see him,unavailable and not very loving.I once told him how i felt and he asked me what it was i needed from him in order for me to be able to heal the wound,the truth was i just dont know if there is anything he can do to heal the wound i feel it has to come from me.The problem is i dont knoe if i can ever get this feeling to go away,he could say i love you a million times and it wouldnt help!,its like when your a child your parent says by their behaviour "your not good enough for me to love" and if its said enough to you then it becomes a habit and years later you find that you,ve been telling that to yourself for years too,just out of habit.but im sick of it now i want to stop this feeling invading my life,and my dreams,but the real question is how.</p> <p>can it be done??????? </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://dasrah.blog.co.uk/2006/04/11/dreams_of_dad~718367/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:dasrah.blog.co.uk,2006-04-07:/2006/04/07/cant_sleep_again~708856/dasrah2006-04-07T01:26:25+02:002006-04-07T01:26:25+02:00 <p>having trouble sleeping again,have all kinds of stuff just floating around in my head.</p> <p>UNIVERSAL LAWS:</p> <p>theres no such thing as a shortcut!</p> <p>truth is just one end of the same spectrum</p> <p>wisdom is experience expressed.</p> <p>truth and duality are interchangable.</p> <p>awareness is sometimes a very lonely place.</p> <p>love is open to interpritation and not a foolproof basis for a long term relationship.</p> <p>age is no garrentee of wisdom.</p> <p>just tought id share these thoughts with you all,better out than in??? </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://dasrah.blog.co.uk/2006/04/07/cant_sleep_again~708856/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:dasrah.blog.co.uk,2006-02-12:/2006/02/12/orbital_heaven~555681/dasrah2006-02-12T01:48:05+01:002006-02-12T01:48:05+01:00 <p>After a stressful day my partner talked me into listening to some music,this might not sound that interesting but we are chalk and cheese when it comes to music and i usually hate his dance/electro/hard taste but tonight he played me something by Orbital called somewhere out there..........Wow it blew me away,this man is a genius!the music seemed to reflect perfectly my life at the moment,theres the chaotic rythem of my life and yet under that the constant reasurance that is my relationship with spirit,myself,and my god.It truley brought tears to my eyes and as usual i realise i was being spoken to,through music,through my partner,across time and the universe in the clearest way possible .to my heart..........thankyou god,i love you!

indirectly hes there talking through this girl!telling me that these feelings mean im ok im not fucked up,im a thinking feeling human being who loves freely and thats ok!,I have never felt so in touch.The party was wonderful,mum was so relaxed and the room was filled with love,and me,well im on the road to liking myself more and understanding that love is never a bad thing and it can learn you so much about yourself and the world. </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://dasrah.blog.co.uk/2006/02/07/best_party_ever~541238/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:dasrah.blog.co.uk,2006-01-30:/2006/01/30/life_on_mars~521031/dasrah2006-01-30T23:04:41+01:002006-01-30T23:04:41+01:00 <p>after seeing a programme on discovery channel my partner and i got into a rather deep conversation on the possibility of life on other planets,and on mars.Several things come to mind on this subject.Firstly the definition of what life is?do we mean carbon base life forms,of are we more open minded than that.It seems that the constrains of scientific thinking are stopping us from making progress,it seem that the laws of physics alter as we more out and away from our galaxy.we live in universe of duality but who,s to say that that is the case everywhere.What im rearly trying to say is that we need to change our thinking not our technology,we need to expand our thinking not narrow it into a sharper tool.We seem stuck on the idea that life on other planets must look like we do,be made of the same stuff,conform to the same evolotionary paths as us.<br> We dont even understand 10% of the life forms on this planet never mind anywhere else.I personaly think there is life on other planets but that its more highly evolved than us,and as such perhaps feel that we arnt evolved enough to contact us. </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://dasrah.blog.co.uk/2006/01/30/life_on_mars~521031/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:dasrah.blog.co.uk,2006-01-29:/2006/01/29/admitting_your_part~517234/dasrah2006-01-29T19:56:07+01:002006-01-29T19:56:07+01:00 <p>my partner is having a battle with drinking,a battle that ive been warning him about for almost a year now.He says he wants to stop drinking and is trying to cut down.The problem is for me that its just another one in a long list of addictions for him.I know he has bi-polar disorder but to me the problem is one of not taking any responsability in these behaviours.he says he always has an excuse for his addictions and hides behind his illness to avoid facing the truth.I feel unless he faces the fact that he is making the choices he wont chang the pattern of addiction he keeps repeating.</p> <p> Its all well and good his mother telling him how brave he is,and how well hes doing but in my experience being kind to him and making excuses for him isnt helping him to face up to his problems like a man,and accept his own part in these matters.he just thinks im being a hard faced bitch,but after 10 years and lots of these addiction crises what else will work?????? </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://dasrah.blog.co.uk/2006/01/29/admitting_your_part~517234/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:dasrah.blog.co.uk,2006-01-29:/2006/01/29/admitting_your_part~517206/dasrah2006-01-29T19:49:17+01:002006-01-29T19:49:17+01:00<p> <small> <a href="http://dasrah.blog.co.uk/2006/01/29/admitting_your_part~517206/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:dasrah.blog.co.uk,2006-01-15:/2006/01/15/middle_child_syndrom~473542/dasrah2006-01-15T17:11:09+01:002006-01-15T17:11:09+01:00 <p>was talking to my niece the other night,she was upset because as she sees it her mother doesnt pay her enough attention,being the middle child this is a commen enough thing.I was also a middle child and i could relate to what she was saying.I also felt like the black sheep of the family with my brother and sister getting most of the love and attention there was to go around.What i realise now is what a marked effect that can have on your personality.<br> My niece confided in me that in her younger years she had slept around a lot and only now realises that it was because she needed to feel loved and when your in your teens its hard to tell the differance between love and sex,and even though she eventually learned the differance she still took any kind of attention,love,affection she could get.I could relate to her so much.but can you ever heal that kind of stuff on a deep level?For me its something that crops up over and over again.That feeling of not being good enough,not worthy of love,somehow less than anyone else.On an interlectual level ive come to terms with it,and to some extent emotionally but can i ever get rid of that underlying insecurity?????? </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://dasrah.blog.co.uk/2006/01/15/middle_child_syndrom~473542/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:dasrah.blog.co.uk,2006-01-08:/2006/01/08/strange_day~452523/dasrah2006-01-08T19:15:45+01:002006-01-08T19:15:45+01:00 <p>I always find sundays kind of surreal!
