If you are a complete fraud then there is no hope for any of us I'm afraid. For I find you as genuine and as fresh and as welcome as the rain in spring. But thank you for voicing these doubts. You are not alone here.

As to where this comes from, I don't believe it is the Queen at all. In my experience She expresses a sort of bewildered amusement at such ideas and quickly sorts them out. Her sorting out for me enabled me to discern that this stern and authoritative voice actually came from a very frightened aspect of myself. One who thought I was not appropriate and wanted me to appear "just right". One, who somehow has been given a great deal of my power and authority. I've called it "the dreaded goomba" but in practice it seems to be more of that inner critic or judge, whom we have discussed before.

Somehow, in discerning these aspects, voices or whatever they are, they are enabled to transform. Consciousness enables things to be seen in such a way that everything comes out differently. I think its the quantum effect, you know, the idea that the observer changes what is being ovserved. Anyway, its miraculous whatever it is and it seems to be what happens in mutuality too. Consciousness is so present here that healing happens. I am so grateful for this.

I hope we can all keep on showing up here in ways that enable us to heal. I for one have never thought you or anyone else has been "hogging all the space". Au contraire, I love it when a new posting comes up. OH BOY! OH JOY! HURRAH! arises in my heart then.

So thank you for being here. Thank you for being you. Thank you for speaking up after having been silent for so long. What you have to say feeds me, brings new life to me and makes me want to send you a huge hug all the way across the ocean. I too love you.

Cassie
