Post #241 "How do We Really Feel about Self?

Does how we Feel about our-Selves have any bearing on how we Feel about 'Other'?

Or---does how we Feel about 'Other' have any bearing on how we Feel about Our-Selves?

If we have Perceived our-Self, we have Perceived Other

and if we have Perceived Other, we have Perceived Our-Self

We Perceive because we have Chosen to Perceive.

Perceiving is what we do.

Perceivers are what we are.

As Perceiver, we have removed our-Self from Reality.

From First Cause,----
First Cause---Consciousness is Aware,
Consciousness is Aware of Self.
Step 2, Consciousness is Aware of 'Other'.
Is Consciousness Aware of 'Other' as 'Other',
independent of Self,-----
Or is Consciousness Aware of 'Other' through Self?
Is Consciousness' Awareness of 'Other' dependent on Self?
If the latter, then Self determines 'Other'.

We, as consciousness were and are Aware................
Are we Aware of "Other' independent of Self or dependent on Self,
------on our-Self?.

Right here, at First Cause, something happened, that determined and determines all that
follows, that determines right here who we are and what we see as our purpose.

Right here, Choice was made and Choices were made.

In Choosing, we divided.

Consciousness divided,
Humanity divided.
-------and never stopped dividing,
because dividing is a process, that once begun, can only end when one remains,
and then, there are none.

We divided between Choosing Reality or Choosing Creation.

Many parts of the Whole of the Collective Consciousness Chose Creation,
meaning, many of us.
This means that humanity, generally speaking is Aware of it-Self and 'Other'
as Perceived through it-Self.
Consequently, humanity has no concept of the Reality of 'Other'.
But who or what is 'Other' anyway?
Firstly, could 'Other' be the First Cause of humanity's Perceived concept of God?
Is God that Perceived, created symbol of the negation of the 'Other' of Reality?
----that 'Other' that our Perception made out to be 'beyond', and 'vast', and
threatening-------?
----threatening to What?
Certainly not our survival.
If not to our survival, then What?
To our Identity?????
Second, could 'Other' be that part of Consciousness, of our Consciousness, that we
divided our-Self to Become?
Did we dream that if we divided our-Self, we could assume that 'beyondness' and
vastness, of 'Other' into our-Self that we could claim not only the Essence of our-Self
but also the Essence of Other' as our own?
Did we have to compete with 'Other' that we would Win and gain 'Otherness'?
Did we have to negate 'Other'?
Did we need to compete with 'Other'?
Did we need to Create our Space and our Time and our Substance to prove who
we are, when all that was necessary was to Observe Self as Self and 'Other' as
'Other'???? 

Some parts of the Collective Consciousness Chose Reality,
meaning, some of us, some of humanity.
Those Choosing Reality Observe Self as Self and 'Other' as 'Other'
There is no conflict or disharmony in Reality as all Is as it Is.
There is no denial of What Is, there is no dream or desire to compare to and so no dream
or desire to remove or take the place of.   

Those Choosing Creation are Perceivers because Creation is Perception and is brought about
through Perception.
Perception is the action of denial,
---denial of 'who we are', 
Consequently, we have no idea of purpose because we cannot
admit to the aimlessness, confusion, and deceit of what we have denied and Chosen
to Become. 

Those Choosing Reality are Observers because Reality can only be Observed as Being.
Creation came about through the Perception of those parts of the Collective

that Chose to remove Reality.

The dream and the desire to Become, to Become what was not, and what is not,
removed Reality.

 Reality Exists, Reality IS and does not exist in a dream or desire.

So,------did Consciousness remove Reality from its Awareness,
did it Choose to deny the existence of Reality,
or, did Consciousness remove It-Self from Reality?
Did its existence need "To Be' or 'To Become'?

Do we Observe our-Self as we are?
Do we Observe 'Other; as 'Other'?
How does our Choice make us Feel about our-Self?
How do we Feel about who we have Chosen to Become/
How do we Feel about what we do to continue striving to Become
what we are not?
