I am sure you too have your own interpretations to my experiences too and I don't mind that at all. In fact, criticism affords a way of taking stock/reassessing the situation. (I am not, as Seawolf would erroneously see me, thinking I am above others here......far from it in fact. I have an open mind and an open heart).

this post is a little more chilled.
I do have my view of your experiences. But A) my opinion doesn't position them with a comparison of higher and lower, as yours has. And B) I don't share my opinion of your experience because I have enough compassion and respect for you and your experiences...and the wisdom not to do so.
Criticism is good...but it is only criticism if you are able to make a point and evidence it. What you have done Amy, is stated that people using a different wording to relate to their own divine experience, are lacking the higher vibrational experience that you have.
There is nothing to support this. So it really is pure judgement based solely on your view and the way you relate language to your own experience. And I say this with kindness, and hope that you will listen...its this lack of anything but a difference in language, to support your criticism, that leads people (me - I won't speak for others) to view your suggestions as they do.
I am sensitive at the moment Amy - on Monday I sat and discussed emotional neglect, and I spoke with this Christian lady about being looked after by spirit and praying and receiving guidance this way...and though me and this lady have different beliefs, there was a mutual understanding that the essence/the feeling was something shared, whether we said jesus or spirit.
So I came here and shared a bit about emotional neglect because that is what I'm exploring within myself, and I hoped it would give you some understanding why I shy away from the word love. It's just a word, and for some it has wonderful connotations...for others it has an understanding of its shadow.
But the word we use to describe experience, has nothing to do with experience itself. Love is just a word. But I believe you when you speak of feeling the divine at the time of a car crash..and I am so respectful of you sharing your experience...because it is something real. I wouldn't take away from that for anything. I wouldn't tell you it was a lower vibration and I felt pity that you weren't able to feel the higher experiences that I feel. And that's what you are doing right now to others.
For me Amy, spirit/divine love or whatever you wish to call it has been there when I have had nobody. I have gone through abuse after abuse, with nothing but that divine presence with me. It's from this perspective that I watch you speak about how your experience is of a higher vibration...and how you are saddened that I lack the connection to the divine that you have.
'Lord forgive them for they know not what they do' is a phrase that means a lot to me. I just hope that you might look deeper at your comments and look deeper into why others might not want to call their divinity, love.
