~jimmy pop 2002 - (Bloodhound fan? - ur sn) Yeah, i can see how a lot of people live their life with that in the back of their heads, but a lot of people also find a reason for being through faith and religion. I guess it's just different for everyone yah know. If you're a movie person i recommend "Dogma" if you haven't seen it. - It shows many views on religion and is by Kevin Smith who rocks my world... (I know, i'm stuck in the 90's) ~Starfaerie - #'s 4 and 5 really apply to me right now (i recently quit my job and my safety job fell through so i'm a little stressed. - I'm digging into my savings for rent and other expenses. ugh.)
"Today is the day" is also mine, but it's already in my sign. That third one is my latest epiphany. Seems like I have those pretty often. Anyways, thanks Tatt'd Fish!
Thanks to you Tatt'd Aquarian for starting this thread! It was good for me to have to think about it and break it down into some simple statements about what I believe about life. I'm not quite as deep as soe of the peple who posted though! lol About the money thing, I just see my dad, who doesn't have to worry about money anymore (my parents are very well off)..and yet he still worries about it all the time. It just seems like you have to make a concious decision to not worry about money while you still have reason to worry, or else it might swallow you
~Tamee - Yeah, I've actually noticed yuor signature before and really liked it (homemade). I made a really cool signature a little bit ago, but couldn't figure out how to get it to work so i just gave up... Thanks for sharing though! By the way, why'd you refer to me as a "Tatt'd Fish"; I'm at a loss... ~Starfaerie - Thanks! (I must worn you, i am susceptible to flattery) But seriously, i'm glad you enjoyed this thread; i know i really have... People are so interesting. And yes, i second your thought of how many people waste time worrying about money who really don't need to... "Ceize the day", right? ~Lotus Blossum - LOL! Thanks for the laugh man; yah know, i hardly ever write "lol" because i only right it when someone really does make me "lol", as i've mentioned before on here - so thanks for the laugh and the 'life lesson'...

1. Fear nothing. 2. Find beauty in everything. 3. Stand up for justice and righteousness. 4. Enjoy your life. 5. Treat everyone and everything with the respect they deserve.
1… Feel as much as possible, be happy, be sad, be depressed, and be glad because being all of it as one is life. Feelings make life feel larger even though it’s short while feelings bring knowledge and awareness of being alive for full. 2… Now you're asking yourself again if that's art and I tell you art is not everything but can be found in anything. Seek my friend, seek and you’ll find it. Don't look all the time at everything as a whole because art is sometimes hiding, hiding at places as wars and hate. We paint beauty in horrors. We paint wars while the word aesthetic means knowledge of beauty. 3… Love because it's the only thing that survives when there's no freedom that lives on peace and peace that lives on freedom, love will survives without freedom and peace. 4… don't care what other people think about you because other people think the same though about what the other people thing about them. 5… Death, life, birth, death, life birth, death, life birth… no reason to fear death, It’s just between life and birth just as life is between death and birth (it only makes sense if you believe in reincarnation)
Base all your most important decisions on love and what you feel in your heart. Know that you are as important as anyone, don't under estimate yourself or over estimate others. Never try to change another person, but instead focus on changing yourself, that is hard enough. If others make you feel angry, depressed, frustrated, etc., You are allowing them to control you,..don't. No crisis is bad as it seems, and if it looks like the end, it's likely a new beginning.
~blindhobosam - Nice. If only the world were really like that... ~Freakersoup - You should be a superhero, that is if you aren't one already... ~SoftParade - Number 1 was my favorite; i hate when people refuse to feel something just because it's 'unpleasant' or socially unnacceptable... You should wathc the movie Garden State. I think you'd like it. ~BlackguardXIII - Thanks for your advice, again... I used to volunteer in a psych ward and Number 4 is what we'd always tell patients when they'd get really upset about something. (Sweet Picture) ~Tarabelle - Yeah, tell me about it! ~Demon Sweat - I'll try to keep that in mind...
Ice your sidewalk when snowey... I fell on my ass this morning and the little kids waiting for their bus laughed at me. - It's going to be a good day today alright...
don't hurt anyone do something worthwhile to yourself, not anyone else don't lie - just twist the truth if needsbe expand your mind respect
