Have you found your river flowing as Sidhartha did? Peace. Can you now appreciate the positive energies better than the negative ones in the forums. Love. Do you seek the dark side or the light side; the cold or the warm. Be free Be Enlightened ....... wave

I think that with time comes enlightenment,
And yes, as time goes by, i appreciate the positive energy
that flows, if one is open to it, and it is very fulfilling.
I have always tried to live a good life, and it is true that stuff gets in the way
of being good all the time,, but with time and freedom, it re-enforces itself again
I now think, that i am in the best ever place in my life, maybe it is the awakening
that someone i know talks about , i think i have arrived !!peace teddybear

Do you live now.... “Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment,” or “As you walk, eat, and travel, be where you are. Otherwise, you will miss most of your life.”

No, I am not...
I need my whole rainbow of emotions and feeling to be a full blooded human being...
I go through them I do not ignore them...if I want to cry I cry, if I want to shout I shout...
I am angry and I am happy, I am good and bad, generous and greedy...
I appreciate both energies because if they did not exist so close together I wouldn't know the difference...

pedro27: to me it's a gift for being a good person a type of blessing
I believe u make ur own everything.

According to my beliefs,
there r no Gods,
except man-made,
to look up to
and hang onto in hard times.

I just depend on myself, kids, and friends.

U create ur own good and bad vibes, karma.

Other people have no right to criticize u,
they must rather do it to themselves,
they'll have a full-time job,
that way !

That's enough for now !

As happy as I can be drifting from one moment to the next nothing beats the feeling of finally getting somewhere.

Im trying and learning.
