What am I to you, you to me? I alone unto myself, you in your context? What you make of it, whatever "me" is built, it is the "me" that exists in your weavings. Then in our intersections — the "us" is born. I am there in many reflections of your essence. I share as I may of the patterns that resonate, but I bond not into your context — for I cannot. What was bound to this world, it rolls as it must. What is unbound is free and present for one and all. All are friends unbound — some known and others not. A friend zone the size of universe — there we share. Whatever I can do to facilitate and broaden horizons. There we are – gazing into the vastness in ourselves. Whatever that emerges — compile wisely in your context. You are your best friend, your integral halves in you. _#BackyardStream #WhatAreYou #WhatAmI #Intersections #Sharing #Universal #FriendZone #Unbound #AnandaICU_ [ Table of Contents ] - ¶ You and Me and Us – What Is and Becomes ↴ - ¶ Us in Our Contexts — Universal Intersections ↴ - ¶ A Friendly Presence — For Whatever It's Worth ↴ **What am I to you? What are you to me?** What are we – as in you unto you, and me unto me? And that goes for any one of you. No one in particular and everyone in particular. ### You and Me and Us – What Is and Becomes ¶ What I share in these talks, it will potentially touch you, influence you, or even trigger you, on the different planes of your being in your specific context. It may touch upon your instincts, on your emotions, on your thought-forms, and even your sense of identity. For you there is a particular context, your field of evolution. And for me, there is mine. Now I, unto me, am nothing. Simply what is, it becomes, and that's the measure of that. And you, unto yourself, whatever it is that you conceive of yourself as being, then that is what you are for the time being. And I am, for you, whatever it is that you find in the intersection of what I share and what you need. And based on that, you form a particular image and relation to me – that is unto you. And then what are you unto me from my perspective? Whatever it is that you bring forward, then that is your relevance as you share it with me. And with that I reciprocate. ### Us in Our Contexts — Universal Intersections ¶ In there, let us be mindful that you come from your specific context and with your particular self-conception. And these two are strictly speaking not my concern, in terms of the particulars that you deal with. I am here as a reflector of the patterns and the perspectives that unfold into all that you are and all that you engage with. And whatever that I can do to facilitate, to broaden your horizon as you share your stories and tell your tales. I look upon it not as a particular specific context of my concern, but I look at it in terms of what are the universals, what are the patterns at works, where is the wisdom of life, where is the shared experience that we all touch upon, in what you share. And I am grateful for all of those specific case examples, specimens of life from the many, many walks of life that all of you come from. And while I may reflect on all that in general or even in specific terms, I cannot become a part of it. I cannot bond with it, because I have my context of specifics, and you have yours. My context of specifics and the works that I engage with are already a plateful and a horizon rather saturated. And with the specifics of what you deal with, I participate, as it happens, to my inspiration, what seems to be relevant, but not as a member of your context. The very simple fact of life is that there are so many people out there in the world, and many who are in touch with me, and I cannot possibly, conceivably, with the 24 hours in a day that I am allocated, and with a finite pool of cognitive energy, engage with all of that at the level and definition that you might perhaps hope for. ### A Friendly Presence — For Whatever It's Worth ¶ Whatever that I may share, in the general space or with you in particular, those be my penny and its partner, for whatever it's worth. Take it with a grain of salt, apply it wisely in your own terms. You are unto me a friend, each and every one of you. I have a friend zone the size of the universe. There are no enemies, there are only friends coming and going. Some of them friendly, some of them not, but friends all the same. And then what am I to you? Well I am to you whatever that you make of it, but with awareness, please, that you have made it to your tuning and to your needs — and I am unto myself whatever it is that I am – that I am not – and that's the measure of it. And in here we need not explore topics like projection, transference, etc. etc. Those happen to the best of us. I do what I can to alleviate the concern from my side, and you are responsible at the end of the day for whatever that your hopes and your ideas are. I cannot possibly reciprocate with each and every individual's hopes, ideas, projections, dreams in this world. I do what I can, and I hope that you are happy with that, at peace with that. Get something out of whatever it is that emerges in the intersection of what you are unto yourself, what I am unto myself, as we evolve forward in our respective lives. Then be well, be at peace – and do not seek another out there. First of all, seek the other in there, in the parts of your own being that you are yet to touch upon. See what fulfillment, see what equilibrium arises from all of that, and then see if something out there is still necessary. You are your best friend, you are your soulmate, and whatever that the rest of us may contribute to that journey. Be well.
