Relating to one another
I've noticed quite recently that my posts are not receiving any replies even when I post where the originator asked for replies lol.
I figure either everyone has me blocked or there's something in this observation for me to learn from.
It seems like it is just very rare for the way we relate, more so here, with others to not be limited by a lack of genuine interest in one another. It seems we relate in ways that serve us alone.
True friends don't relate that way. They are truly there for one another.
I'm probably just as guilty of this to some degree but still it would be nice to have established some real friendships over the years here, ones where we truly listen and support one another. I see myself that way, as one who is a true friend.
I'm not surprised as the world away from here is the same way.
I wonder why that is.
I can't help but wonder if it's me.
I'd appreciate any thoughts on this, that is if you don't have me blocked and you can actually read this lol
Are we so caught up in this thing we do here called spirituality that we solely only relate in ways that serve us alone?
It's not a good feeling to be ignored, especially here because we all struggle with the same thing and probably have more in common than in our non forum life.
Hopefully my next post won't be "okay 150 views and no replies.....ouch"

I don't have you blocked, but only tend to reply to a handful of threads..
I may have just missed your posts or didn't feel I had something to contribute to your thoughts..

Thank you for replying Eelco. I wonder if we gravitate towards certain people for reasons not so noble as well.
Real life is like that and here again I see that tendency in me.
I'm not saying you are doing that but I wonder if it's a popularity thingy why some are overlooked or then again maybe I come across different than I think I do

Its almost like you have been invisible Bluesky. I wondered why you had gone quiet. :)
Here you are again. Welcome back.
