As always, your comments are deep. Sometimes, you force me to think. LOL. I joined EllGab as a means to learn the truth regarding the future of HW and to mourn the death of Art Bell. MITD's Art Bell Final Sendoff Show touched my heart. I admired Art Bell as a radio host. Last week's "after show" with Peter Eberhardt was very interesting. Pete gave me some new information. Art Bell did not spend much time teaching HW. I can almost understand why Art Bell moved HW into his home studio. With that being said, over these past few months, we learned that HW is not balanced person. In hindsight, Art Bell should not have brought HW psychically close to his family. The situation is difficult and ugly. I am not a monster, I still have feelings of compassion for people in pain. I believe that HW, Art Bell's widow and children are suffering. Art Bell had great talent. Now, I wonder where was his common sense.
RIP Art Bell.
Thanks, and I think you are getting the idea of how to put together the big picture.
The key to understanding is to synthesize all the patterns and voices. There are no heroes in any of this, just people with various flaws and strengths and various motives. Some are altruistic, some are blind, some are self-serving in various shades.
The issue of processing and reactions brings to the table our experiences and filters of belief and our bedrock. For some it is religion, some it is a need keep a business going, for others a need to prove they are the best troll on the boards or on facebook.
The reactions and lack of them are equally as important in demonstrating the patterns as are the kinds of things that any one individual attacks or praises. They are all as important as to what happened and also they reveal clues to what is going on at the center of the storm.
I can detect certain biases and red herring statements a mile away, anyone can if they look without attaching their own emotions. Understanding what is going on outside of you by understanding what is going on inside of you really is a truth and sounds deep, but it is true.
