Well if you are right, then I'll kindly ask the morons who decided I should only be here to experience misery to come down from the clouds for a 'lovely' cup of tea. |

Of course, conceivably at least, the theory may be 'wrong' and Life could simply be a whimsical 'over'lord who, in your case, is choosing for some 'reason' (presumably for his/her/its own 'enjoyment') to sadistically afflict 'you' and masochistically experience what 'you' experience. |

Understand that you experience misery because you project angry aggression into the world. Change words like "morons" to something that doesn't project angry aggression into the world. The word "gods" works. Past that, blaming the heavens is a copout; take personal responsibility for your situation. Do all that, then watch how the world around you changes the more you take conscious steps to change yourself. |

How can you even take responsibility for an issue that's been around since birth? I don't project agression in the world because I actually detest violence, whether you'd believe it or not. My anger regarding my situation is righteous and justified because I didn't do anything at all. It's rather impossible to take responsibility for something as an infant, isn't it? But since you don't believe in a conscious god from what I remember from our previous conversation, what intelligent force is out there that pulls the strings of everyone's personal life? Angels? Demons? Spirits? Perhaps this thing called higher self? Please, do tell. |

Welcome to the machine.
What did you dream? Are you someone who decides what to dream? Or someone who sits around waiting for others to tell you what to dream? (And there are lots of those out there: people who sit around and wait; and people who can't wait to tell you.) Life in a nutshell. (Nutshells are so very cramped, ouch!) |

Excerpted from the treatise I am now 'cooking', here's a BIG PICTURE 'stew' relating to the above statement: The short version of ‘the full story’ is that, with the benefit of having both (‘successful’ and ‘unsuccessful’) kinds of experiences, souls may [there are no ‘guarantees’ when it comes to ‘free will’, now!] incrementally become aware of the 'ins' and 'outs' of the multivarious kinds of liabilities which stem from short-sighted selfishness and (so) in due course choose to transcend any and all selfish-‘i’dentity associated inclinations such that they eventually become completely devoted to optimizing and augmenting the Entity of Life’s Love and Joy process above and beyond their own and (so) from that point on live in a state of ‘at oneness’ or conjunction with said Ever-Ongoing Process, hence one might say ‘forever’ or ‘eternally’, thereafter. The alternative possibility in this regard, of course, being their completely (capital letter ‘F’!) ‘Failing’ to do and be so. |

This you is much larger, and you are correct us. This overlord you refer to, who is that. Remember, there are experiencing (experiences) you have no comprehension of and no inkling of you make light of. You should be grateful you do not. |
Quote:
Of course, this would make no sense to and so cannot possibly be ex-peer-ienced by anyone who thinks and believes that 'his' or 'her' LIFE is (separately!) his or her 'own' alone. |

Have you been paying attention? I already told you in our previous conversation that one does not simply quit their job. I need my income, and on top of that I like my job. It would be a shame to just throw it away. And move to another city where I have no friends or relatives at all and be lonely? As I said before, you are probably wealthy and retired. I am not. My job isn't even hindering my life, so there's no reason to quit. And just so you know, I'm already busy with trying to change my life and doing anything I can by exploring new places, interacting with new people, etc. You are quite persistent in assuming you know anything at all about my life, while that isn't the case. Trust me at what I am about to say. I'm trying to be as kind as possible, but it has to be said before your advice ruins someone's life even more. You SUCK terribly at giving advice. I hope your self-reflection is developed enough to be aware of that before your advice ruins someone's life one day. Even though I appreciate you probably mean no harm, just stop it already. I don't need your advice, neither am I even looking for advice. Got it? |
