You didn't seem to get offended by people poking and prodding all the time
about your stuff. That's the sign of a rationalist. If you were really
loony, you would consider the questions an affront by now. -Claire[Sheep]
It is time to admit that my interest in hypnotism is waning, as far as my personal use goes. It has been fun, it has been stressful, and it has taught me much. It is a tool I'm glad to have and will continue to use in the future. But it is no longer the focus of my life, and that gives me a few options as far as this blog is concerned.
One, I could delete it as I have my many past blogs, as a method of freeing myself from past beliefs.
Two, I could leave it as is and forget its existence, but I will ignore this option as memory modification is to invasive for such a minor thing.
Three, I could leave it regardless of the discomfort it causes me, allowing it to remain a resource for others, but also an antiquated expression of beliefs.
Four, I continue to update the posts as I come to different beliefs about them. This places even further burden on my, and will bring me back again and again to remember mistakes I've made. (I assume I will change my opinions about some of the ideas presented here in time).
Five, I could keep it and post new ideas if I ever return to hypnosis, and use new posts to update my past ideas.
Six, I could continue to use this as my main blog, even as I change ideas and interest, ignoring what was the original topic to fluidly change as my interest does.
Of course, I post this entire entry having already decided on Six. As mediocre as my skills at blogging are, and as painful as my entries may be, I'm done with constraining my public image to that which enhances it. In the past, I have held what I say to that which will seem sane to others, enhance my image, and most importantly help others. I'm dropping even those three restrictions.
This is no longer a hypnosis journal, nor even a tulpa journal. This is the paper representation of the strongest and more prevalent ideas of my mind. There will be chaos, there will be contradictory statements, and there will be things that you can't understand. There will, likely, be thing you understand easily, things which help you, ideas and concepts and stories. I'm no longer seperating it out, but I don't expect you to treat it equally.
If a post helps you, then use it and tell me what worked. If a post makes no sense, ignore it (or if you are interested, ask questions).
The only promise I make from now on is that everything I say honestly represents my thoughts and beliefs at that moment. I reserve the right to change my mind, I reserve the right to believe opposites simultaneously, and I reserve the right to be wrong. But I will be honest in every case. Now then, lets get on with it!
