Seeking Union, Fellowship & Camaraderie Options

Hello,
I've been a 'member' of Sacred Magick forums for a short-time and I don't make many posts(as of yet, I have more time on my hands now though and plan to start), but I do read a moderate amount of posts and I very much enjoy the site and the people who participate in the forums. I've found them to be very kind, insightful and helpful. Too my point...I live in a very small town(for the the time being)and I have a lack of friends who study or practice The Arts(of metaphysics), with the exception of my wonderful fiancé who has just recently started studying the tradition of Buddhism. I'm sure alot of you know my situation or something similar and know that the path(The Great Work) can get a bit lonely at times. So today I set up a MSN(or Windows Live Messenger) account, in hopes that i could make this post and in doing so find Union, Fellowship and Camaraderie, if anyone would like to add me to their 'friends' list and have a chat. I'm not trying to scam anyone or anything of that nature, as I said: i'm only seeking intellectual conversation with those of a like mind & philosophy. I study & practice Ceremonial Magick and am pursuing a career in psychoanalysis, but i'm only telling you these things so that you may know a bit about my interests, to aid you in your decision as to whether you'd like to add me and say 'Hello' and maybe even have a nice conversation. Anyway, I am hopeful that i'll receive response from this post and maybe even start some new & wonderful friendships. My MSN/Windows Live Messenger Information can be found on my porfile...hope to hear from you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/victory.gif)

P.S.(to site moderator(s) ) I hope this post isn't interfering with any rules or regulations. I also plan to post this same 'topic' in Ceremonial Magick, i hope this is o.k. Thank You.

Just FYI, double posting topics is a no no. Its not a biggy or anything. Just so you know.

i have a few friends that correspond via icq, but no much chat as they are all in different timezones and even days

we were all looking for that 'fellowship', without judgement or asking for stuff, and they practice all sorts of things, the many flavors sometimes combine to make a nice pot pie, or sometimes get all mixed up and burn out

we even had a 'view-in' once where we all showed up at a certain place and time through remote viewing - it was, well, interesting

really that's what these forums were originally for - there are many like-minded folks out there, but a lot don't post for fear of flaming or getting hit with something if they piss somebody off

there is probably a cm-related chat somewhere on icq - try google, but don't be dissapointed if you don't find anything at first - also check yahoo groups

there are some bad eggs out there too, so be warned - sometimes people just want to talk to themselves and have people agree with them, and not hear anyone with other opinions or practices, and they can drain or pressure you to do stuff for them - been in groups like that and they can stick it

anyone can always pm me if you're really, really bored - but you probably already know my answer: "turn off the computer, go outside, speak to the wind and then shut up and listen with every fiber of your body, not expecting fireworks, but nuances and feelings and tiny thoughts popping into your head"

yep, i'm a loonie,

es

Thank You.

If a moderator could please delete my original post i would greatly appreciate it...Thank You.
