Wisdom is the retention of innocence through adversity.

hello luv - thx for adding me!

my ideas on heaven and hell are insane so you must tolerate me and once in a while an interesting post will come along

it would be ironic if someone's heaven were a hell - but i am open to every possibility, and none, and hell on earth is what i've known so far

;\

they say "one man's trash is another man's treasure"

i know that one man's floor is another man's ceiling...

but you raise some interesting ironic permutations...

like, what if someone got to heaven and it was everything they asked for and it was precisely this which made it hell

that reminds me of a radio show today: people would talk to a computer and it would gradually learn their answers and questions, until it became very much LIKE them - and some people ended up in terrible arguments

which shows that some people cary around their own hell in their heads

and here is another thought: suppose someone wastes away their life doing everything for "heaven" and god says, "ok, that means you get into heaven," but when they get in, it is actually their own idea of HELL - and so they say, "hey, god, WTF?!"

and god says, "this is your punishment for wasting so much time concerning yourself with an afterlife"

what it is

i was thinking the same thing about good deeds yesterday

oh i thought you might be offline, as you were leaving school - ha ooops ha

well, two main things with me:
- good deeds are a value unto themselves - best to choose to do them even if you might not feel like it presently
- but you don't need god or anything else to make you do them, the choice is yours

but i'm not this way with honesty... i find i avoid all people until my cfs will let me be the person i am, and so let me be honest with people

on the other hand, i can do good deeds whether i feel honest or not

chronic fatigue syndrome

i like to help people but cfs has ended that

nothing we do is 100% selfish or unselfish so why worry? ya do what you can, right?

thank you very much

i'm sorry you are feeling similar

i'm sure you are a fab writer sans drugs. i urge all my friends to chuck their drugs!!! the more of their drugs that end up in the water supply, the happier i will be

please do not be jealous of my writing, or i may never get you into bed.

they say "write what you know"... so... experience makes good writing, and that boils down to 2 things:

1 - practice
2 - pain

an analogy may be made to sex of course
