I was clicking through this forum and an interesting thought unfolded: I've always received compliments on my prowess as a communicator, both speaking and writing. This has always served me well when digesting another person's writing as well.
However, upon discovering Bring 4th I realized that I had a difficult time understanding the thoughts presented on various posts, due to their in-depth nature, it took tedious re-reading to get my head around the majority of posts that were of length. This was beneficial for me as it both identified and humbled a rather inflated expectation of myself that I didn't even realize existed. Simultaneously, the inherent kindness that everyone writes with worked to stave off any feelings of intimidation. This made for a learning experience that felt very beneficial as it provided me with a dose of reality, while remaining extremely comfortable - joyful even.
This is my first example of noticeably learning something about myself by simply experiencing the "radiance" of others.
It seems to me that this is the perfect way serve others, by being passively radiant, I believe Ra speaks of this if memory serves. Therefore, the first step as a newcomer would likely be simply working to get one's Self in balance. As this improves, one then strives to master opening themselves to others they interact with so that person may be able to actually experience the radiance within. For me, I see this as a daunting task as I am an "introvert" to new people in my life that I interact with in person. However, this probably stems from the blockage of some energy center and can be improved - is this correct?
This may seem elementary but I knew if I sat down and wrote it out it would make better sense to me, and then by posting it I stand to gain from the people here willing to expand on or clarify my attempts to apply the Law of One to my life.
Thank you in advance for offering your thoughts
