As a consequence of typing these words out, I learned some things about myself. I imagine the audience here as being very elevated, and so perhaps I allow myself to inhabit an elevated position when considering how my words appear to others here, and thus allow myself to inhabit a viewpoint which perhaps otherwise would not?

After typing the above its clear that:

  1. I added the word 'infinite' when its quite clear that I just would like to feel any love at all, I was trying to add some kind of weight to the perception others have my psychic abilities / aspirations. I would like to feel some significant feeling of love, but in writing this I used the term 'infinite'.

  2. I have an inferiority complex regarding my spiritual level or abilities, such that I am very ashamed of my (self-perceived) hobbled state, such that I am not powerfully attuned or inhabiting a state of powerful awareness in my daily round. I suppose I am ashamed of this. I wanted others here to perceive me as 'on the level', I guess, so I threw some big words around.

Also, I found the 'simple, tactile healing exercise' which seems just right for addressing the lack of love, so I'm going to experiment with that and see where things go.
