I went to the Geneva meeting tonight. We discussed "Letting it go" which I thought was an OK topic. It's a difficult concept to not use one's own will in daily activities, and I can't say that I understand how I turn my will over on many situations that come up daily. I try and do what the cult tells me to do, and that's how I turn my will over to my Higher Power. My undertanding is that limited, but it seems to work for me, because doing "Gods" will is hard for me, since I am an Athiest. After the meeting, normaly a few of us go across the street to a Baker's Square, and get pie. Tonight, only myself and one other cultist went over. We had a very good conversation, and I was suprised to find out that this member shared my interest in Eastern Philosophy, a general mistrust of organized religeon, and struggled with the conception of God, and used the cult as his higher power. Looking at him, a retired old fart, I wouldn't have pegged him as anything other than a "good christian", not that there is anything wrong with that, I just think that many of those are people who just don't bother to question things (probably just my own predjudices coming to light) But this fellow had been interested in Buddhism since the late 60's. Once again I must not let my snap judgements govern how I view people. Of course this is a lesson that I seem to re-learn every few weeks.
I was volunteered to help my Aunt and Uncle move this weekend. YAY! They seem to think that I may be needed for more than one day, to pack up thier things. I highly doubt that, but I have made provissions that if needed, I can stay over night. We'll see.
