RGV appreciation thread * 1
    #26862804 - 08/04/20 03:01 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

I think a good idea for the community is to celebrate a member each week. Is anyone willing to take up the mantle next week?

I'll start by saying thanks to RGV for the years of considerate and mindful posting. Usually with an artistic flair that sometimes I get and sometimes I don't. But that's a large part of what makes his posts enjoyable for me. That I have to pause and think some. To interpret the words in a deeper way than surface and reactionary thinking alone.

I'd also like to celebrate RGV for diving deep and yet still not settling. It's easy and sometimes all to natural to think we've got things figured, especially as we age. To hold on to the answers we find along the way as if they are solid. You are unusually bendy mentally sir, kudos on that :thumbup:

Overall RGV I find you to be a positive influence in this community and I hope you continue to share with us. And on that note, I hope others will also chime in with appreciation. And if anyone wants to volunteer to take up the challenge of appreciating the member of their choosing next week, I'd love to see this become a trend. :cheers:

RedGreenVine's posts have definitely warmed my heart on quite a few occasions.  Especially reading their thoughts around psychedelia and the human condition.  Their posts are a blessing when I'm used to reading a bunch of negative stuff in the Pub (I probably should just stay out of it entirely). 

Cheers to a real one! RGV! :cheers:

My one gripe is that I think he should bring back his old avatar of the weird child with many layers of eyes. Otherwise, I've got nothing but positive things to say. I've certainly learned more from redgreenvines than from 99.99% of the people I've interacted with on this earth.

I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

Oh boy, a roast!

:justcantwait:

Red has viewpoints that often differ from mine, yet I almost always get what he's saying and appreciate the value he adds to the forum. I know it's rare to change someone's mind but without being specific I think he's rubbed off on me a bit. I remember first reading his posts, I found much of it difficult to understand. As time went by I found myself understanding and agreeing more often. Did he change, or me?

I don't know but he has lots of interesting things to say and makes this forum a better place.

I’m thankful he’s still around.  This place wouldn’t be the same without him.  :cheers:

A beautiful voice of sanity & reason!

By the quality of his wholesomeness and goodness, I dare say that this song is constantly emanating from & left playing in the footprints of his digital presence - for all those who might have eyes to see and ears to hear:

Whence returning to the Shroomery after a lengthy break, I was very pleased to see RGV still here. Wouldn't be the same without him :cheers:

yes they really are just some of the best things on the earth

what if 50 % of us read them


some of the posts he makes us of a higher quality for others

from being changed

the self changing

for example if he sais you're conscientious we get closer to being it and get our surrounds closer to being there

RGV, cool guy. Don't really feel his philosophy at all but I'm sure his chakras are all good and that. Doubt we'd hang for long if we met.

A resounding endorsement.

Maybe this should be Grapefruit Appreciation thread?
Not that we need any soppy shit, but lets send the vibes to Grapefruit where it could get the juice flowing!
