neptune5 unregistered	posted January 08, 2007 03:24 PM Hope Uniquity Mercy Apostacy Nostalgia Instinctive (instincts) Trust Yield Please, lets take time to recognize we are all part of the one true race that habitats the center of the universe, earth. Remember, whether or not you like someone, they have just as much of a right to life, love & dignity as a citizen of humanity does, just like yourself. ------------------ Virgo Rising 8'57, Sagittarius Sun/4thH 3'26, Pisces Moon/6thH 8'22 "Our passions are not too strong, they are too weak.

Alas, my friend, the boast is poor; He who has mingled in the fray Of duty, that the brave endure, Must have made foes! If you have none, Small is the work that you have done. You've hit no traitor on the hip, You've dashed no cup from perjured lip, You've never turned the wrong to right, You've been a coward in the fight. – Charles MacKay (1814-1889)" IP: Logged

Sweet Stars unregistered	posted January 08, 2007 04:07 PM I think he wants you to think in a violent conquistador way, like he does. IP: Logged
neptune5 unregistered	posted January 08, 2007 04:11 PM Well as long as jwhop's not a threat to the wellness of human life than he's welcome to post anything he'd like, having the right to freedom of thought, speech, and action is part of being human. (but the violent conquistador is really not me, lol :laughhing: ) ------------------ Virgo Rising 8'57, Sagittarius Sun/4thH 3'26, Pisces Moon/6thH 8'22 "Our passions are not too strong, they are too weak.

BornUnderDioscuri Moderator Posts: 49 From: Registered: Jun 2009	posted January 08, 2007 06:23 PM I actually like what both of you wrote. Oddly that poem is deep and makes perfect sense about the humanity. Its not so much cynical as realistic. I like your words as well Neptune IP: Logged
neptune5 unregistered	posted January 12, 2007 03:43 PM This depresses me. When i'm doing my roundabouts in everyday life, i don't say anything that would be against another person, their pride, their heritage, or personality. I don't hold grudges and I certainly embrace everyone for who they are as a person, whether a nice person or the meanest. Well i've noticed that people have been calling me "punk" "stupid for letting people step all over you". When in truth the way their interpreting it is flawful. I would rather the person who slander me to learn through time, to have the course of nature teach them their needed lesson of patience and acceptance of oneself and another. I don't engage in any confrontation, unless something is a threat to the survival of the other person, then i'll step up. ------------------ Virgo Rising 8'57, Sagittarius Sun/4thH 3'26, Pisces Moon/6thH 8'22 "Our passions are not too strong, they are too weak.

neptune5 unregistered	posted January 12, 2007 03:44 PM oh, i never stated what depresses me, its when people don't use their concious to do good, but do unconstructive, evil things. IP: Logged
neptune5 unregistered	posted January 12, 2007 03:52 PM Can someone aid me in this analyzation: if found that the more i embrace people as they are, for their faults and goodnesses, and grow in my embracing of humanity as a whole, the more i get treated like i'm not human and don't have feelings. is there some sort of...mental,emotional,psychological,cause and effect, thing going on here, 'cause i'd like to know. ------------------ Virgo Rising 8'57, Sagittarius Sun/4thH 3'26, Pisces Moon/6thH 8'22 "Our passions are not too strong, they are too weak.

neptune5 unregistered	posted January 12, 2007 03:53 PM typo (if), its supposed to be this: i've found that the more i embrace people as they are, for their faults and goodnesses, and grow in my embracing of humanity as a whole, the more i get treated like i'm not human and don't have feelings, can anyone tell me why this is? ------------------ Virgo Rising 8'57, Sagittarius Sun/4thH 3'26, Pisces Moon/6thH 8'22 "Our passions are not too strong, they are too weak.

Johnny Newflake Posts: 0 From: Egypt Registered: Apr 2010	posted January 13, 2007 12:18 AM Good quote, Jwhop. A sort of related one: quote: Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions. - Albert Einstein I want to live in the world you described, Neptune5. But, where is it? IP: Logged
Swerve unregistered	posted January 13, 2007 02:14 PM Jwhop, Johnny I get ya. That world would exist if everyone wanted it. Clearly it's never made the top of the priority list. In fact, taking from Johnny's quote the option may never have even been presented to them in the first place. Swerve IP: Logged
neptune5 unregistered	posted January 13, 2007 02:51 PM quote: That world would exist if everyone wanted it. Clearly it's never made the top of the priority list. In fact, taking from Johnny's quote the option may never have even been presented to them in the first place. It hasn't made the top of the priority list, and its certainly never been presented to them(humanity). But it hasn't been presented to them because they're not in touch with natural evolution, how and why they grow, and the consequences of it. Thats the reason why they don't want it, because it hasn't reached total (global) human conscience of how effective they are, and can be more so, through a level of tolerance and acceptance. (notice i didn't say total tolerance and acceptance. When people hear those words, like 'kindness, tolerance, acceptance, mercy' they take it to the extreme, and thats the problem. No one can accomplish anything to the extreme unless they've mastered the basics, and its not meant to be extreme or complex, just maintained. People get caught up in the detail of things and how they're supposed to work, behave, do things, interract, etc., then when they can't do it, or acquire the self-fufilling prophesy that they can't do it, they get angry, spiteful, rude, negative; and the answer is its definitely more simple than most people are making it out to be, ) ------------------ Virgo Rising 8'57, Sagittarius Sun/4thH 3'26, Pisces Moon/6thH 8'22 "Our passions are not too strong, they are too weak.

Swerve unregistered	posted January 13, 2007 03:52 PM Absolutely Neptune, I agree with you. However, life doesn't always give people the opportunity to be so open-minded and loving. Sometimes you don't even have total freedom to define who you are. Choice is the product of freedom and education. Be that thought, feelings or action. Maybe one day we'll inch a little bit closer. Maybe that will never be possible. Treasure the freedom (or evolution) you have to even consider the possibility. I respect the way you think so boldly and openly, and your intentions are solid.

Xodian Moderator Posts: 275 From: Canada Registered: Apr 2009	posted January 15, 2007 05:26 PM We are animals people. The sooner we realize that the sooner we can work towards being better than that. We have infinate wants and needs and for the most part, I don't think even a million earths would satify us. Is it a bad thing? Not necesarily. With wants comes motivation and with Motivation caome ingenuity and progression. We are animals with goals and we have strived and achieved almost everything we yearned for. I just hope we don't end up finishing each other off in the process (ironic truth.) IP: Logged

neptune5 unregistered	posted January 21, 2007 01:35 PM Song: HEAVEN IS A PLACE ON EARTH LYRICS When the night falls down I wait for you And you come around And the world's alive With the sound of kids On the street outside When you walk into the room You pull me close and we start to move And we're spinning with the stars above And you lift me up in a wave of love... Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth ? Ooh heaven is a place on earth They say in heaven love comes first We'll make heaven a place on earth Ooh heaven is a place on earth When I feel alone I reach for you And you bring me home When I'm lost at sea I hear your voice And it carries me In this world we're just beginning To understand the miracle of living Baby I was afraid before But I'm not afraid anymore Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth ? Ooh heaven is a place on earth They say in heaven love comes first We'll make heaven a place on earth Ooh heaven is a place on earth ------------------ Virgo Rising 8'57, Sagittarius Sun/4thH 3'26, Pisces Moon/6thH 8'22 "Our passions are not too strong, they are too weak.
