I'm in space. I always am. I was talking about myself. I get bored easily and need to rustle up some drama. I've also learned that I sound like a twat in my posts. So I try to compenstate.

I think that all knowledge must be learned, because we came into the world with a blank slate, (brain-wise). This is the case for the human race as a whole. Whether our learned knowledge is co

AIDS comes as a stern teacher. It rather walks around the classroom as an old schoolmaster might, and raps you smartly on the knuckles saying, "Wake up!" Suffering serves a noble purpose.

opinions are ass holes and everybody has one We're all a bunch of ass holes. When we can say, "I am that" to any insult that we throw at another person, we are on the road to wisdom and growth, in my opinion. And we will also be on the way to learning how to

I'm sure God created fundie Christians in order to exercise other people's 'patience-muscle' in the soul. Or maybe an acceptance-muscle. I could feel it flexing as I was reading that last post. There's a higher good in everything, I'm sure. (Apologies to anyone who's n

Eikonoklasmo, you are my new hero for hte day Why not be your own hero for the day, or even a lifetime? Does it matter what other people think or say? No. Unless you make it matter. Enjoy the journey. It's fri

But when people start telling me that I am wrong, ... don't take it to heart, and let them get on with their own misguided attitudes. Other people don't have to hurt you if you don't let them. It's all in the mind. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="mb-Bod

The Bible, and all it's good times are on the way out Don't speak too soon Amitty.

Thanks so much for sharing your views Beesley. Even though it got a bit out of context regarding this thread, (there's a religious thread all to its own), there's nowt wrong with flexibility and open views in any post. The original post is about gays, so I suppose it's no surpris

Feel the emotion, think the thought, then act. Emotions and thoughts come and go, let them. Emotions are good and it's OK to feel the sting when someone says or does something nasty to you, or feel joy at the silliest of things. Wisdom at its purest! I don't think we have much choice regarding our emot

I've learned contentment is the way I agree. Happiness naturally comes and goes like the seasons. But contentment can remain a constant, like the light of the sun shines constantly, (even back of the clouds). Happiness and sadness are part of life's pageant. Contentment can be the ground of one
