Well, then hold it close and dont ever lose it because then it will become a distant, sad memory of a lost youth, like mine.
i have a green hat like that! and yes i agree so much with everything you both said. and i love you. but you know that.
GreeN?! Like my forest jungle eyes. I used to have a green eryn go braugh hat my friend Julie gave me, but just like everything else in this world, I lost that too/ Green is the best! I love you too Prism, and Im going to add my drug adventure account to that thread you did, but I dont know if I should because we are talking well into the hundreds of psychedelics trips, not too mention my breif marraiges to cocaine and morphine. And my affair with booze :tongue:
at the fair, i saw a group of teenagers with some of those small stuffed animal prizes you get if you play a game but don't quite win... one threw his at his friend, trying to hit him in the head. it fell to the ground, and they kept walking. seconds later, a little kid came along, picked up the toy, and got the most amazing smile on his face. i'd love to read all about your drug adventure. i just put down my firsts... writing everything is impossible, even for me, and i haven't even done that much. i completely forgot alcohol. probably a good thing, and sort of ironic. x).
Poor little kid They are so innocent. I saw my son asleep on the couch the other day hugging a Thomas Train toy and I started crying :& Edit : Nevermind, you know, I dont think I want to post my drug history becuase in all honesty, if I start going into psychedelics, Im going to end up writing a book, which is something I planned on doing anway and am still working on it :tongue: I dont think I am higher or more important than anyone, but I have purposely literal tortured myself with magic mushrooms to expel evil or demons or whatever you want to know them as, and I feel that people could get some useful information on what I've gone through in the 8 years that I've been doing this. For me tripping was rarely about having fun, as at least 3/4 of my trips were spent alone and were very mentally unbearable. Talk about Christ dying for our sins! :tongue: Because at times thats definitley how much pain mushrooms brought onto me.
this is off topic but as most of my friends are here, i would like to take the opportunity to say goodbye. for reasons i am not really able to share right now, i am leaving this forum. i have enjoyed every moment of our time together and i really love and respect every one of you that i have come into contact with. it is my deepest wish that every one of you and all the world experience joy and peace. signing out :love:
aw... i'll miss you, and i hope that everything goes well for you. i really enjoyed having you as a part of my life... <3
ps. denise-louise. theres always the internet cafe and a new hotmail adress, if you ever decide to make a word!
I believe in DesCartes vision, that the fundamental truths of the universe can be derived only through rational thought. however in order to attain the information to construct the truth, you must whitness the world, experience what the universe is, and subjectively feel the sensations in a way that you understand the limits of the world as you could ever possibly know, and the unlimits. Part of this includes whitnessing natural phenomenom in the world, and other parts include our concepts of the ultimate derivatives of the universe, the primary energies and origins of all phenomenom. our internal concepts that we use to visualise/represent our beliefs about the world. Relayer and Prismatism, it seems to me that you concieve the energy to be something tangible that propogates the universe from our souls into items and movements and symbols and any trace of us. and then propogates into other souls when they come in contact with any of these things. that the energy itself is in the things we make or in anything or everything. but i think differently, i believe that the energy is like a harmony, indeed a dance, of any natural phenomenom. i also believe it is beautiful, because it specifically is a harmony as opposed to chaos - which surrounds the energy. we pick up on the harmony amongst the chaos because we are built that way, either by god or by the natural forces of the world.but the harmony/vibration exists in minds, in people. however the harmony does not fill the universe, it exists in our minds. words are tools for vibrating teh energy of minds, as are all things we do in the world. but they arent the energy itself. and minds- we have senses, and we have manipulation, and we can manipulate the world in such a way to create a certain sense, like a word or an image or a hand gesture or a punch, to create a vibration in another mind that is in harmony with you. but these tools we use do not posess the harmony itself. they deifnately may posess another type of harmony. all natural phenomenom are in harmony if you look at them at the right level. natural phenomenom themselves create harmony. but not at all levels. for example, the water molecules in teh ocean are in much more chaotic state than the tides and currents of the ocean. however, a bubble in the ocean will be surrounded by a layer of interlocked molecules moving together - the phenomenom of surface tension. amidst the fish are seemingly chaotic streams of water, but as a community, they are in their own harmony - in part influenced by the 'currents' of the sea, in part influenced by the minds of the other fish. they all have a tiny bit of error, since they cannot predict eachother's movement, but given that all of the fish' error is part of the 'chaos', their overall movement can equal out, thus being in harmony. our words themselves do not give us meaning. but if we are exposed to words over our whole life, we pick up the common pattern of their use, and thus we end up in harmony with the person who wrote it, to a certain extent. whatever extent they have successfuly communicated. sometimes you find out people mean completely different things to what you initially thought. prismatism you mentioned reading a book the second time and understanding it more. well perhaps you could always understand things more - no matter how much you do pick up about what someone's intentions were, there will always be something you cannot pick up on because the word itself does not have the information, the information is based on our shared sense of teh world and since no two people have the same experiences, no one will -perfectly- understand another person ever.
What's all this nonsense ? he he he Love is really just love chemicals. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4478040.stm
Sure, but this thread has more of a, well a love of life rather than a romantic love of another person :tongue: Of course love is really just love chemicals, just like food is really just food chemicals and the universe is just universe chemicals. God bless ~
Oh man, I agree completely. People throw 'love' around so easily, they love him, they love her, but they aren't willing to lift a finger or humble themselves or swallow their pride or do something truly MEANINGFUL and GIVING to a person. If you feel like lovin' me if you got the notion . . . second that emotion . . . If you feel like givin' me, a lifetime of devotion, second that emotion As much as I love my own ability to use language as a tool (and I often wish I could trade it for something else, like the same ability translated to visual art), I could never begin to describe what hipforums is to me. it has changed me as a person in ways i thought were reserved for better people than myself. it has opened me up like a flower. you people are the springtime in my soul
Right on. I feel like choosing to love everyone unconditionally has a lot to do with how you manifest that choice. It's not just a mental attitude towards the planet but it's how you interact with it. So it gets to me when I hear someone believes in "one love" and peace and kindness but doesn't walk on that path.
