reclaimation

let me just say, I'm a big fan of giving
many have asked me, "You do justice for others, but when will you do justice for yourself?"
and I respond: "Aeons and Aeons. Possibly never. I do not need justice for myself, though it is appreciated."
See I like it when people give me things. I appreciate that a LOT.
But to reclaim the gifts I have given others? This does not interest me.
Reclaimation is selfish. I try very hard not to have a self, unless it is absolutely necessary. Instead, I choose to have faith in others, for I know that they will eventually repay me, whether they choose to or not. But I really like it when they choose of their own free will to repay me. This brings tears of joy to my eyes.
for in giving me that which is measurable, they have gained imeasurably. And the thing I like to see most is a winner. Someone who has achieved their gains.
so the basic point of this post is quite simple:
you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours

DoctorJ said: I try very hard not to have a self
An endless struggle agansit an undeniable riptide known as reality.
You exist as a self. Clear, concise, simple. You are an individual, existing as the culmination of all thought, experience, and interaction with one's environment.
Unless you were referring to a mental sense of self? Well, you are stuck with that one too. As long as we perceive reality through our lens, regardless of how obstructed or crystal-clear that lens is, we sense ourself, the act of which is presence.
So perhaps you were speaking of a preconceived, obstructive sense of self, one which limits one's direct perceptions of reality, limits the awareness involved in one's present experience, and restricts one's conscious ability to manifest form from the great ocean of the unmanifested formless.
If this is what you strive to deny, as you have stated, then, at the very least, it is a more beneficial goal. Nevertheless, the nature of such a change is that it is a conscious decision, a choice - not a struggle, an attempt to try and strain very hard, as such is always in vain, counter-productive, futile.
First and foremost, one should concern oneself with the act of reclaiming one's direct perception and experience of reality, the behavior of truly experiencing the self. Then it will not be an issue of giving or receiving, or an amount therein; it will be as it naturally and inevitably is, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. 
 Peace.

I'm sorry, but the culmination of your experience is the self.
The fact that you derive an identity from anything at all confirms that your mind is engaged with a sense of self.
That is pretty much all there is to it. 
 Peace.

I do not need bad memories
I keep them alive for others.
I do not need good memories
I keep them alive for myself
though I may be in possession of a self at the present time, ultimately I have no self.
wanna hear something kinda creepy?
ultimately you have no self either!

So, ultimately, form does not have form? 
Which begs me to mention that, ultimately, your new form doesn't suit you very well. 
 Peace.

Ja, men jeg er lærer langsom. Jer har vanskelighet med grammatikk og setning bygningsmåte.
My biggest obstacles are a lack of resources and a complete lack of application of my focus and time. Maybe I should start to learn...
 Peace.

Form is form, within the context of the formless manifesting as form or not. The possibillities are near endless, and yet to state that form is not form is to negate oneself and reality.
Such only leads to trouble. I think it is time for us to effectively, beneficially materialize. 
 Peace.

are you jewish? 
you have a lot of 'yiddimaku', or 'jew mind'.
perhaps you should examine The Ancient Secret of The Flower of Life, by Drunvalo Melchizedek
seems right up your alley
report back when you have learned enough!

I'll try to keep that book in mind. I am set to repay my extremely late fees at the library, and if they have it there, I'll be sure to check it out.
Which is exactly why I am not Jewish, that I am not good with money. In fact, I am far, far, far North from being Jewish.
I actually suspect that I was involved with the Roman Empire in some way, at some time, as it felt on my last trip... but certainly not Jewish. 
 Peace.
