Emily  quote: I don't believe in religion at all any more. I use my own logic and see it is full of contradictions, and most likely an account of the extraterrestrial races who came here, and quite possibly a tool used to keep people in ignorance and under control. The whole concept of "good" and "evil" are probably the very things that keep the cycle of hatred towards others as well as toward ourselves perpetuated.
 I agree fully with what you wrote. That's exactly what I believe. teasel.. I leave my posts up because I like to look back and see how much I've changed since I've been on here. I've been thru usernames like dirty towels. One I won't mention because it didn't last long enough to mention and was an awful experience and one I'll always regret. Others were LovelyOne, CrimsonChyld, SunnyRains...that may be it I can't remember. But I had such self esteem issues back then and frankly sounded so immature. I read them now and it's like reading someone else's postings. I have really changed for the better since then and looking back helps me see that. Anyway...just wondered if you experienced that feeling when looking back at your posts. IP: Logged |

I have this fog over me.It hangs heavy---usually. It is all the ideas of worthlessness that seem like they are blinders to me. IOW, wherever I look--I am wrong. I contemplate a relationship . I would like one but I think of how many things I have to stuff away and wonder could I do it? It is like *I* am an unruly and unkempt house and I have to hide everything in drawers so no one sees. Then, when it is all picked up and I am dressed nicely with nice make-up on and my hair done----I can answer the door Ami IP: Logged |

If it makes anyone feel better I'm probably the champion here of low self esteem, insecurity, depression, a history of self isolation, and so on. I think that once you've thought about killing yourself a certain number of times, it can help aid the dissolution of the ego, you start to lose your fear because things don't appear as serious any more as when you were more attached to the outcome.

I would rather not use my first name on discussion boards by the way. I just prefer a bit more anonymity on a public forum. But its ok, not to worry now. Maybe just use my forum name in future.  IP: Logged |

Wherever I go I've been a loner...story of my life. I don't know if people find me strange. I can't reach out to people in a secure way, talk to them much, because I'm usually feeling too insecure inside.I feel so alone, and human relationships so much of the time seem wearisome....so much bickering....all because we can't see it through each other's eyes. Most people seem to be what they feel others expect of them, and their lives and popularity are all built on this. Where is the true freedom, true intimacy, or true understanding? IP: Logged |

I need to be getting some sleep soon. Different time zone here. I think the sad truth is, the engineered sense of scarcity in our wold, the way the banking systems mathematically keep part of the population in poverty through debt etc, and slaves to money through mortgages and suppression of technology such as free energy......plays a huge, huge role in the quality of people's lives. Without money you can't travel, meet people, experience, go and be with or visit your loved one etc.....money can give us the freedom to have opportunities to make more friends IRL. It's another factor worth considering. IP: Logged |

I can relate to much of what all of you are saying.  More replies later, as their is some stress here on the home front at the moment.

It will take me awhile to comment/reply here, but here goes. LTT quote:  Is there any point to suffering? Why is it worth it?
We do learn how strong we are, we do learn to feel for others who suffer, but.... once the lessons are learned, why does the suffering continue?????????? quote:
Or do we carry on living simply because we fear the unknown?
Maybe some do.... but NOT ME. I await each small joy, and each new adventure no matter how small, and love to keep learning. I savor each good moment and that helps me move through the bad or agonies, because some little new or old good moment will come, and there is always new things to learn or experience, even if only by proxy. I love to, to collect smiles. Like when I can go out, see how many smiles I can get or incite in others! quote: Or is it more than that...an unconscious memory that we are here for a reason?
Could be. I KNOW some of mine. quote: It feels like there is...but sometimes its all too confusing. 
Then you are close to finding your reasons.....or :-) recognizing them! Some of which I can see, so look, some are beyond obvious!  quote: Without money you can't travel, meet people, experience, go and be with or visit your loved one etc.....money can give us the freedom to have opportunities to make more friends IRL. It's another factor worth considering.
I have to agree with you here. Lack of enough money also makes being disabled even more depressing and limited than those who have fully handicapped accessible homes and all, and who can afford physical therapy equipment to aid in at least not getting worse.------------------ Everyone is a teacher...

Ami Ann quote: I am gonna take a bath
OMG!...how I would love love love a real bath!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have not had one in years! Only showers, but mostly sponge baths, and require assistance to do either of those as it is. Soooooooo.... see. you do have something to be thankful for! Perhaps a real bath may seem trivial, and not a thing to be thankful or happy about.... but speaking as one who does not have that luxury..... it IS A THING TO BE HAPPY ABOUT!!!!!!------------------ Everyone is a teacher...

LEXX - I like what you said a lot. quote: why does the suffering continue??????????
Could it be that - we don't know how to let it go? Some things are very difficult to let go of, no matter how painful - because we are so used to them being there. I think it is almost habitual. Or at least in my case, this is how I felt. :edit: When I say this - I am not just referring to psychological things, but also physical things, like diseases or ailments. Deep down I feel like there is -nothing- we could not heal, if we only *knew* how. I feel a kind of helplessness sometimes, especially these past few days with my friend who had the surgery. I wish I was in year 2500 or 3000 and maybe her problems would be equivalent to a tooth ache then (either due to medicine advancements or spiritual advancements: maybe people would have the ability to self-heal by then).

Oh no...I am quite able to let go of any of my suffering and have cured myself of many things to the utter amazement of many doctors. Yet out of the blue...too often, new sufferings come.On that note...thunderstorms screwing with my internet connection again. brb asap. ------------------ Everyone is a teacher...
