Two "different-people" who are "strangers" to each-other may find each-other to be TOTALLY-INCOMPREHENSIBLE - - - if they are Playing-to-WIN Collusive-Games of Mutual-Self-Deception - - - regarding the IMPOSSIILITY of being-diffrerent with-integrity - - - within the as-yet not-understood Gracious-Ways-of-Shaslom. There will most-likely be Alieantive-Conflicts within the the relationships of such "strangers" - - - and they will most-likely have no-clue about how to deal with their TOTALLY-INCOMPREHENSIBE Alienative-Conflicts - - - because first they must Let-Go of their Tragic-Winnings from Cherished-Games of Mutual-Self-Deception - - - that have been regarded as: Sacrid, Holy, Of-Ultimate-Concern, God-Given, Grounds-for-Hope and Always-Worthy-of-Reverence. Such "Different-People" need to work-cooperatively in Coordinated-Colaborative-Honest-Ways-of-Love to identify and describe just how they are different in regards to: 1. Deciding WHOM-they-can-TRUST - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 2. Deciding WHOM-they-can-NOT-TRUST - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 3. How they differ in AFFIRMING very important ASSUMPTIONS - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 4. How they differ in AFFIRMING very important ATTITUDES - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 5. How they differ in AFFIRMING very important BELIEFS - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 6. How they differ in AFFIRMING very important VALUES - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 7. How they differ in AFFIRMING very important IDEALS - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 8. How they differ in AFFIRMING very important HOPES - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 9. How they differ in AFFIRMING very important CONFLICTS - - - and WHY, on what grounds. 10. How they differ in AFFIRMING very important PRIORITIES - - - and WHY, on what grounds. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The grounds for AFFIRMATIONS may be PURELY: Emotional, Rational, Objective, Mathematical, Theological, Fearful, Gang-Related, Tribe-Related, etc. AFFIRMATIONS are often made most-powerfully by behaviors which are NOT at all: obvious, overt, verbal, explicit, coherent, public or honest. AFFIRMATIONS are often made by WINNING particular Colusive-Games-of-Mutual-Self-Deception, and so being Out-of-Touch with reality! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Be Graciously-Together in Shalom's-Sanctuaries! Be Graciously-Engaged in Open-and-Honest-Dialogues!
