And he always answered: I believe in the God of Spinoza. Baruch de Spinoza was a Dutch philosopher considered one of the great rationalists of 17th century philosophy, along with Descartes. According to Spinoza, God would say: “Stop praying. I want you to go out into the world and enjoy your life. I want you to sing, have fun and enjoy everything I've made for you. “Stop going into those dark, cold temples that you built yourself and saying they are my house. My house is in the mountains, in the woods, rivers, lakes, beaches. That's where I live and there I express my love for you. “Stop blaming me for your miserable life; I never told you there was anything wrong with you or that you were a sinner, or that your sexuality was a bad thing. Sex is a gift I have given you and with which you can express your love, your ecstasy, your joy. So don't blame me for everything that others made you believe. “Stop reading alleged sacred scriptures that have nothing to do with me. If you can't read me in a sunrise, in a landscape, in the look of your friends, in your son's eyes—you will find me in no book! “Stop asking me, ‘Will you tell me how to do my job?’ Stop being so scared of me. I do not judge you or criticize you, nor get angry or bothered. I am pure love. “Stop asking for forgiveness, there's nothing to forgive. If I made you, I filled you with passions, limitations, pleasures, feelings, needs, inconsistencies, and best of all, free will. Why would I blame you if you respond to something I put in you? How could I punish you for being the way you are, if I'm the one who made you? Do you think I could create a place to burn all my children who behave badly for the rest of eternity? What kind of god would do that? “Respect your peers, and don't give what you don't want for yourself. All I ask is that you pay attention in your life—alertness is your guide. “My beloved, this life is not a test, not a step on the way, not a rehearsal, not a prelude to paradise. This life is the only thing here and now—and it is all you need. “I have set you absolutely free, no prizes or punishments, no sins or virtues, no one carries a marker, no one keeps a record. You are absolutely free to create in your life. It’s you who creates heaven or hell. “Live as if there is nothing beyond this life, as if this is your only chance to enjoy, to love, to exist. Then you will have enjoyed the opportunity I gave you. And if there is an afterlife, rest assured that I won't ask if you behaved right or wrong, I'll ask, ‘Did you like it? Did you have fun? What did you enjoy the most? What did you learn?’ “Stop believing in me; believing is assuming, guessing, imagining. I don't want you to believe in me, I want you to believe in you. I want you to feel me in you when you kiss your beloved, when you tuck in your little girl, when you caress your dog, when you bathe in the sea. “Stop praising me. What kind of egomaniac God do you think I am? I'm bored with being praised. I'm tired of being thanked. Feeling grateful? Prove it by taking care of yourself, your health, your relationships, the world. Express your joy! That's the way to praise me. “Stop complicating things and repeating as a parrot what you've been taught about me. Why do you need more miracles? So many explanations? “The only thing for sure is that you are here, that you are alive, that this world is full of wonders.” ✿ڿڰۣ— John Roedel (author): “Me: Hey God. God: Hello. Me: I'm falling apart. Can you put me back together? God: I would rather not. Me: Why? God: Because you aren't a puzzle. Me: What about all of the pieces of my life that are falling down onto the ground? God: Let them stay there for a while. They fell off for a reason. Take some time and decide if you need any of those pieces back. Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking down! God: No - you don't understand. You are breaking through. What you are feeling are just growing pains. You are shedding the things and the people in your life that are holding you back. You aren't falling apart. You are falling into place. Relax. Take some deep breaths and allow those things you don't need anymore to fall off of you. Quit holding onto the pieces that don't fit you anymore. Let them fall off. Let them go. Me: Once I start doing that, what will be left of me? God: Only the very best pieces of you. Me: I'm scared of changing. God: I keep telling you - You Aren't Changing!! You Are Becoming! Me: Becoming who? God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light and love and charity and hope and courage and joy and mercy and grace and compassion. I made you for more than the shallow pieces you have decided to adorn yourself with that you cling to with such greed and fear. Let those things fall off of you. I love you! Don't change! ... Become! Become! Become who I made you to be. I'm going to keep telling you this until you remember it. Me: There goes another piece. God: Yep. Let it be. Me: So ... I'm not broken? God: Of course not! - but you are breaking like the dawn. It's a new day.

Please be patient with me! I am very sorry that I can't give you specific times.  🗓Message update date🗓: 💐Qute of the day💐: "Life is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely." -Unknown 🌺Introduction🌺:  Hello! I'm so glad you found me! As you can tell, my "name" is ListeningGirl626 but you can call me 626 for short if you'd like! I’m here to listen and to help you no matter who you are! Your issues are my issues too and I want to be able to work with you to help you with what you are going through. I am not here to judge or make fun of you, I am here to help you and make sure you are doing good. Remember! Everyone loves you and that you aren’t alone. "You are someone's reason to smile."  🌷Office hours information🌷:  I am more of a night owl which I'm sure others can relate to as well.

If my response times become a bit delayed I am likely dealing with various members, but I will do my best to get back to you as soon as possible!  Weekends and Wednesday's:  Weekdays not including Wednesday's:  This is not an exact time, just a rough estimate of when I'm most active!

I understand life happens and there may be times where it is not easy to respond right away, the same goes for any listeners. I understand time zones are different as well and if you're able and wanting to, we can organize a certain time to chat (meaning texting on 7 Cups of Tea) and talk about what you're going through.

Come, let's talk!

I’m here to listen and support you in whatever way I can. Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. You are important and I’d love to talk to you and be here listening to you and supporting you in whatever way 8 can!

✝️  Hello there! I'm Josh, and I'd love to listen to you.

No one is you, and that is one of your powers!!

1.) Introduction I've been through anxiety myself, and I know first hand the struggles of feeling alone and left out. Worry not, just take my hand. I'm here to guide you to the promised land.  2.) Personality 💛🍋I'm a bittersweet lemon💛🍋 I am also an INFP; 4% of the general population Introverted; Indicates a person who is energized by time alone. Intuitive Who focuses on ideas and concepts rather than facts and details. Feeling Who makes decisions based on feelings and values  Perceiving Who prefers to be spontaneous and flexible rather than planned and organized ❇ I'll always be less than my other selves So I feel like I'm competing with someone else ❇ 3.) Likes and Dislikes Likes 🎡 Motorbikes 🏍 🎡 Photography 📷 🎡 Anime 🉐 🎡 Rain and Thunder ☔ 🎡 Martial arts 🙏 🎡 Alternative Rock 🎸 🎡 Video Games 🎮 🎡 Mechanical Pencils ✏ 🎡 Psychology 💭 🎡 Chicken noodle soup with a soda on the side 🍜🥤 Dislikes 💀 Sea Food 🐠 💀 Plane crash documentaries ✈ 💀 One word replies 🆗 💀 Group chats 👥 4.) My perspective  An important point to make is that sometimes the way we feel is nothing more than an echo from the past. It's been conditioned into you. Scorched into your brain. If you sit around and choose to wallow in that familiar pain, then you can never hope to feel relief. Even in the fell clutch of circumstance, you do have a CHOICE to make. Choose to get up and DO something. It's not about the hand that you are dealt. It's about creating your own reality and label the old feelings for what they truly are; Pathological liars. If you never allow your mind to be saturated with healthy, positive emotions, then you will forever be stuck in your own quicksand, sabotaging yourself. I know that it may be a slow step by step process but that first step is all it takes. °·.    ·  ✦ ·* .  •    ·  •.   ✶˚  .   ·*✧* ˚  · . ·* . ✵.         ✧✵ .·    ✵  ✫˚            · · .             ·✦ ˚  · .           ⊹   · . *            ..   . °  You are never as down and out as it may         seem, and you are definitely not alone.
