If you lost everything in your life and gained nothing then according to Karma Law it was a very ideal life. You have come out of the cycle of life and death.

I follow the Seven Deadly sins, the Eight fold path ( have a really tough time with Right View and Right action how far should I anticipate the consequences of a Right action) Wu Wie and Gurdjieffs thought that we are not born with souls but grow them.
I think some tribes in Uganda believe the same thing.
I need air, water, food, shelter and sleep. I want nothing.
Really strange feeling to have very little desire.

The lesser our needs, the simpler and purer life will be.

I've lost everyone I've loved in my life so I'm thinking better for others I don't get involved much any more except for my favorite professional cuddlers. I've gained a lot of knowledge and wisdom and that is why I log on to cs.... to spread it around thick and heavy. cheers

I really don't tell this part of my "story" very often, but here goes: I wasn't in the 'in-crowd' in school, but I had made friends with a guy from about the time we were 11 or so. Our moms were good friends, business women in Portland, Oregon. He died before we reached 30. This guy had traveled down to California several times when I was going to college there, we went camping, hiking, and played acoustic music on the streets of San Francisco and Portland together--it was the biggest, most incredible loss and I will never fully recover. Life sometimes gives us only one really true-blue friend, and he was the one. Thanks for this post--it's important. handshake

good post, this made me think about what I gained.. what I lost I knew.. these are a very dear people to me.. I probably gained some knowledge that I tried unsuccessfully to share. But I tried..)) I understood what love and friendship are, to whom I I can trust and whom I can’t.. I met a lot of good sincere people...

not a matter of "should"--I just didn't understand your reference of believing I didn't like you--I have no memory of any negative interaction, so I was just asking you to explain. Not that big of a deal--just wanted to know. handshake

Almost every person loses something in their life which is never recovered. Some unlucky people lose something early in their life (childhood) which they miss throughout their life. Sometimes one loss changes the entire course of life. Sometimes laughing, sometimes crying, this is the life.
