I need to start writing. I need to practice because I want to become a good writer. Even though English is my third language, I don't want to stop here. I want to expand my writing skills. But i don't know what to write about. I want to write about how I feel about things, or about the things that i don't have an answer to. But i am afraid. I don't want to know what I think about-- or at least I don't want to remind myself of what I think about. I feel so confused.. as if i had too many questions for too little answers. It is very hard. Complicated.. Maybe all I need is a psychoanalyst.

Why can't all people be blessed with some sort of special talent that will get them out of poverty?

it's a short story about an incident that occured during the Holocaust. a Jewish (?) man is taken by the Nazis and told to dig 3 graves and bury 3 Polish men alive. he refuses. the Nazis then tell the Polocks (sorry couldn't help myself) to do the same. they bury the man up to his head and are then ordered to dig him out. once the Jewish fellow is out he is ordered to dig the graves again and this time he does. after he has buried the last Polish person, he is shot in the stomach and left to bleed to death.

i think that's how the story goes. i remember reading it as a senior in high school and it really troubled me.

What do you think would have happened if the Wade-Davis Bill had been enacted after the Civil War? Where do you think the Southern states would be today?

Think the "Illuminati" is real? Is his history correct? Maybe not the whole story but the oldest "Brotherhood" is still alive? Scares the crap out of me.

Our perception of reality is limited by our senses and nervous system. We have built exterior extentions to expand this perception.

An example sight. We have 4 known cells that sense photons of light. A rod and three cones. The rod senses the presence of photons and is responsible for for black and white/motion detection. The three cones sense specific wavelengths of light red, blue, and green. With these simple beginings we can sense a rainbow of color within a certain range of wave of photons wavelengths.

We build tools that project wavelengths and senses beyond our vision into our visual field. Infra red night vision for example. The electron microscope is another. These tools give us glimpses into other realities but they distort that reality into our reality.

I've been looking at "The Art Institute of Indianapolis". They have schools all over the country, but I can't tell if they are actually a good school or if they're a joke in the art world.

Im not saying that i dont believe in god (I do) but, what if the person who wrote the bibble just lied about the whole thing? I mean, i could make some kind of book about... some god i make up, and in a few hundred years, someone will end up believing it and start rumers.

Im just, saying, what if the bibble is a lie? The person-and/or-thing could have written a lie in every word you read, and be laughing at us right now.

I'm looking for albums to store my family pictures. These should be nice, acid-free, bound albums. I would like something that has bidirectional photos, but a variety of different layouts and pages.

There have been many controversaries about this topic. Many believe the concept "beauty {or art} is in the eye of the beholder" but others believe that "porn is porn is porn, no questions asked."
Is their a line that exists between displaying sexual passion and the beauty of the nude? (Food for thought)
