my weekend was quite nice...i hope yours was too 
As if it wasn't as obvious as a flagpole, I like quotes.
"...If given the chance to go back, I would not take it. Therefore, the decision to go ahead is my own responsibility, to be accepted with a whole heart, or so I write here, in faint hope that the words may give me courage."

"You have ravished my heart, my sister, my bride,
you have ravished my heart with a glance of your eyes,
with one jewel of your necklace.
How sweet is your love, my sister, my bride!
how much better is your love than wine,
and the fragrance of your oils than any spice!
Your lips distil nectar, my bride;
honey and milk are under your tounge..."

thanks felix.
i have been through the propoganda ringer. im over it. ive done away with the rules and am creating my own version of peace. someone once told me something that put everything into perspective for me...they told me to 'stop will all this reason...come be fat and happy with us'...sometimes i think they are right. it's a difficult leap to take, but once you cross the line...its all sunny and miracle like.
but it is just not my bag. ive lived in jerusalem, center of the big three. ive been to the holiest of holies for all three. ive spoken with, studied under, broken break with and sought shelter with the most spiritual people I have ever known. I have never been so uncomfortable. Jerusalem is the darkest/ugliest city in the world. so much hatred and anger and blindness masked in religious rhetoric. you see for me its that very leap of faith that makes me sooooo frightened of religion in the first place. if i never go back it would be too soon. false prophets everywhere.
but the falaffel sure did kick ass!!!!

How do you define peace?
My definition is: small, round, green, vegetables.

Does you believe in numerology? The belief that numbers have power?
Randy was a firm believer in numerology. He woke up on the 5th of May, 1955. It was his 55th birthday and he could not believe that he had missed the aligning of all the numbers.
He went to the bank to see how much money he had. He had $555.55. Withdrawing all of...

That's an interesting perspective on intuition.
theoriginalsin:
(To answer your quiry.)
I personally don't believe in right or wrong. I believe people have perspectives or points of views. From these points of views they determine how their lives should be lead and how they see things in the world.
My personal point of view is that the mind is logical and tries to form patterns and the subconcious works with the abstract, unformed and strongly operations with universal energy. Intuition is a bridge between these two sides of ourselves.
Is your point of view more correct then mine. Who am I to judge such things?

Thought for the morrow: Why do we call them apartments when they are all crammed together?

whydo they call them buildings if they're already built?
why is it a pair of underwear if there's only one?

They say good things come to those who wait.
Aren't the things that come to those who wait the leftovers of those who got there first?

I agree...hell, the other day i told someone i was "going with the flow and letting things happen" and they told me to stop being a pussy and take control of my destiny...yikes huh 
Does anyone remember the memory game we all played as a child?
You would spread out all the cards face down and then try to find two that matched. The one with the most pairs at the end won.
I have been checking out different profiles and to the best of my memory, NO ONE has the SAME three SuicideGirls on their profile!

Thanks for helping me out with that lucid dreaming site, it's actually one of the first ones I went to but thank you very much just the same. Also, Ive never seen the same three favorite SGs either.
Got a picture up. Will have to work on the quality.
Probably my favorite quote of all time...

I was really happy to get your email, you are completely right about me expecting to get what i give (loosly paraphrased). I know that is why i am often crushed under the weight of my own expectations of others. I am wittled down, and recieving your email like that really touched me. It makes me feel like I am understandable and that someone is listening. It's even better when it's someone who can appreciate bill murray and the brilliance of Ground hog day.

From some forgotten corner of my brain came a poem that I read years ago.
It believe it was written by a guy named Anonymous. (That Anonymous fellow was a very prolific writer!)
