I see that the original post was changed, so now my entire response seems confusing 😂 it did originally say beside "crane is in the dictionary" that it wasnt understood why people arent checking the dictionary before asking questions – hence my original response ❤️

Sarah, I could see underneath your original post and heard what you were saying very well. The points you made sounded indirect enough so that nothing was accusatory.
I have often found that trying to flesh out an issue or to shift focus because a change of direction is in the works is often misunderstood, and the response is often the misperception that an attack of some kind has been made. Yes, you are right compassionate understanding needs more development throughout the OO family and everywhere else.
The dream dictionary has a lot of white space in it. This situation reveals clearly how full the symbol needed to become.

Im providing possible situations in which that kind of thinking can actually have more uncomfortable outcomes. There is zero intention of being rude or anything negative for that matter, it also wasnt a response to Almine in the first place – though I see that tends to be a blind spot as well. There is all the intention of sharing the perspectives, the "maybes", because I think its so brutally important, and so often overlooked. How much more peace would there be amongst people if there was more compassionate understanding and less group assumptions, less clumping together – because everyones situation is so complex and different. That kind of thinking is one of the biggest traps Ive seen, and I see it everywhere, including amongst OOs – often. Were not supposed to accept the unacceptable, but whats not often talked about at the same time is that what I dont find acceptable, is different than what you dont find acceptable, and then the next person. Which is OK. Sometimes they clash and thats OK too, its okay to collide with differences, thats where the most is learnt sometimes, but thats also where compassionate understanding is so critically important, because thats so often how its turned into something far more comfortable, otherwise it lingers in unecessary chaos. This is what Im here for 🙂 it just so happens that everyone hates me for it, almost always, and thats ok too, learned that early on, and its actually a blessing. Ive often thought maybe its because Im reaching out to help, and Ive noticed even the most pure intentions to help, when you push them outside yourself, tend to be more uncomfortable. However, sometimes I feel more compelled to share, and I continue to follow those moments because its such a strong draw inside of me, and I will continue to do so where I feel that draw. Deep down more and more I realize, I wouldnt truly care if everyone hated me to begin with, in fact Im almost certain I signed up for it, I care MORE about being true to what I feel is my next step, and sometimes that is stepping up and sometimes that is stepping down. Ill continue to stay true to what I feel so strongly inside and sometimes ill push outward, and sometimes ill just stay inside, and thats OK, because were all on our own paths. I understand that means that youre on your own path as well. Thank you for all you do ❤️

Sarah You need to pull your head out of Your rear end … No one wants to read your rude response to the holy Queen Mother…
If you can't find a solution to the meaning of the crane you saw through OO then slide down the ladder and get the definitions you require
Sarah says
Maybe people do check first and are asking clarification on the specifics of the overall situation and or definition … In addition dignity is quite vague and up for differing interpretations compared to the specifics that were given here. People can check the dictionary, see the definition and have a situation that stands out to them enough that they go "I dont understand this well, it seems of importance, maybe I should try and seek further assistance on this until I can figure it out on my own". After all I dont believe theres harm in asking or clarifying, and I do think theres a difference between depending on and reaching out for every little thing and occasionally coming across something that could use a little extra assistance until theyve reached the ability to answer it themselves. Sometimes asking for that clarity can mean a world of a difference in how things move forward. Sometimes more harm comes from assuming that one knows in a situation where there are many potential ways to interpret said situation, and asking for additional information helps that individual work out inside themselves what the most important thing to gain from it is. Theres too many variable situations.
