Why we have rules

Some of you may wonder why we are so picky on what we allow as posts in the group, why we created rules. No one likes rules but they do serve a purpose to keep a focus on topic. This group is about your feelings and awareness, how you feel and what you perceive. We don’t just want to know what you think about something, but how you feel and what are you becoming aware of. Most groups just want you to promote or market yourself or to talk about things that have nothing to do with life or you. Beliefs and opinions may be shared but they never touch the heart, inspire or push buttons. To become aware you must face yourself and your fears, know yourself and encounter yourself. None of this can be done if you are in trivial conversations. It takes comments that push your buttons at times and even make you feel enraged to get you to look within at why you feel a certain way, why you think a certain way. Then you have to explore it and understand it without losing your dignity, poise and self respect. If we don’t keep this focus then the conversations will wander and the meaningfulness and power of awareness will be lost in opinions, beliefs and trivia.
