An average thought...
Wonderfully put. Not that I agree with all points....but still, a lovely read. Thanx.
I agree a mind is a strange and wonderus thing to waste.
it's a waste becuase... he expanded on the idea of human and those points of life and denisty or the fact it didnt' seem to orginal or what was the Durrie. Was it the Durrie. Sorry thosse Charlie's fans will get the joke. wherever that leads?
Tri that agian 13, I can not get your post stright in my mind.
You say we are who we think we are...and I quite agree...so it is only because you think that way that you see life as a miserable prison...not so...—
No Paralax I'm not saying we put these roles on ourselves...I'm saying it's what's inside that counts...and realising that is the only way to rid our minds of personal insecurities that we deem are part and parcel of our situation...because THAT...is what limits us in life...

I totally agree with you Durrie we have to believe we
deserve better in our lives and stop beating ourselves up.
Its bad enough that there are plenty of people who tell us how unworthy we are we can't feed into that and tell ourselves they must be right . We limit ourselves that's true. There's a book by Wayne Dyer ,Manifest your Destiny.
He says what is in your thoughts every day is what you
become.Lead with your heart not your head because the truth
is in your heart.Its the mind that analyzes everthing and
and plays that self destructive dialog over
and over.He says if you feel something,it's true for you,
trust whats in your heart .Its something that I find very
difficult to do I get in a mood and put the negative on everthing I want to accomplish so I try to work on it everyday.

Even I agree you have the abilty to make your life better. Its not were you are at, its were you came from to get were you are at. If you are born with a silver spoon in your mouth and end up with the spoon so what. If you are born dirt poor and someday you own a old spoon who has come futher?
We all have the ability to 'choose'. It truly is irrelevant the circumstances of our position, race, gender, country etc.. No matter where we find ourselves, no matter how much bad or good 'luck' comes our way, we STILL have the ability to CHOOSE. If we are backed into a corner up against a knife wielding maniac whos primary goal in life is to kill us, we STILL have the choice to live or die..to fight or surrender. Sure, if we 'choose' to fight but death is a result...the death is the consequence...and even then, we can still 'choose' to hang on to life for as long as we can, or 'choose' to opt out quickly. An extreme example.
There is always a choice..we can either make our lives better..even in a small way...or place the blame on everyone / thing else for our misery. There are ppl who have been born and raised under the most hideous of circumstances, but they have risen above adversity and taken control back of their lives. By making choices.
Making a choice may have positive or negative consequences for us, but the choosing is always available to us. No one here is saying that 'just b/c you make a choice' means that it is only as simple as that....every person, no matter who you are, will face varying degrees of adversity throughout their lives. There are always consequences. But life is a challenge, otherwise what is the point. The ability to choose, to make choices, is our one true freedom which makes us all unique and able to conquer anything thrown our way.
If you are born dirt poor, and your only possession upon death is an old spoon, perhaps during the interim this person had risen to a position of wealth and power, travelled extensively, found his one and only true love and was married for 50 yrs, was loved by all his children, family and friends, then donated all his wordly goods to charity, but decided to keep the old spoon b/c it was the first possession he ever bought....who is to say whether his life had meaning or fulfilment or not..I think he has learned in his lifetime, that postion, wealth and power are superficial and upon death, he has experienced all he ever needed to, and has realised what is really important.

Hmmm...how strange it is then to be here and agree on countless occasions with these friends of mine on this website by that place the one time by that thing...that we all agreed our lives are merely extentions of our will defined by our actions of choice within it...hmmm.
What went wrong...? Was I sleeping...that can't be right I wasn't born yet so what good would sleeping be...I must have been sent here against my will...I mean look at me. My nose is too pointy, my butt sticks out and this thatch they call hair...it's all over the damn show.
How can it be...maybe my life isn't in my hands...well not this one anyway...geez look at my toes they're bl00dy webbed man...no this is all wrong I wouldn't choose this.
Maybe...well maybe it's out of my control then...maybe I should just crack on with my life as I am in the knowledge that I was put here for a reason...hehe...yeah a human torpeedo maybe with this skeg on my face, webbed feet and a natural bow wave...!
But seriously...things don't just happen for no reason, I mean. We know things fall down on earth because of gravity...we know water makes you wet and we know sqeezing those tiny little zits under our eye's hurts like hell but why...? Why dammit why...? You think since it applies to ALL of us we would be able to figure it out by now.
Hang on...that's right...life is what I make of it...so maybe if I just keep on living, keep on feeling the answers will come. If I learn the symptoms and respect the order to life it might just make some sense...well at least that way I have a common ground to base myself and others just like me in this flesh but what about how we were given it...damn that question just won't go away...
Oh well...if none of us remember maybe we're all differant...but then that doesn't explain how we all live by the same rules and our farts all stink...the rules must be the same for all of us then and well...maybe they are defined from the same place we origionally came from...where ever it was I before I got shoved into this body...hmmm...yes...not saying it's right but I can't say it's wrong and so far it all adds up doesn't it...?
Maybe I did choose this lumping great big mess of a body...maybe I didn't just fall from a worm hole. Mom reminds me more of a slug anyways as the case may be but...yeah that must be it...so how do I get back there...I don't wanna kill myself...I have so much life to live...so much to see and do and share.
Oh well...crack on...we'll find out one day...
I believe I am exactly like you in ESSANCE (infact we are one in the same) so the rules of life are no differant to our lives if we can concieve that fact because logic dictates that everything comes from an essance and that is where you should base your actions, choices and life from.
Now you can choose to believe your essance is your creed, culture, country of birth and what ever but then we grow up and realise they are just differant ways of being the same thing...diferant manifestations of essance.
This is where to my mind Espernauts' "versions" of truth and rules come into play because that is the beauty of that which is HUMAN in us...or else that of us which is manifest...humans are UNIQUE and celebration of that uniqueness in our selves is the only way to fufill our manifestation in order that we realise our essance...
