Once Descartes got finished denying everything, the one constant he found was that he was thinking. Yet, a Buddhist would tell you that our thoughts are all over the place, and are the farthest thing from contant. Rather, the constellation of thoughts we take to be an "I" is but an illusion of a separate self. Isn't the breath, i.e. the life force of the body, far more grounded and constant in terms of a persons being and becoming in the world?

I've had five different signature styles for the last 10 years and did them unintentionally. I wrote a check last week for my bill and the bank put a hold on it until they verified my signature. The bank called and told me that my signature shows different than what they have in file. I couldn't explain it. I've gone throught my important documents and they look like different people signed them. I need to know if other people are experiencing this type of issue.

Do you think the reason is psychological?

truth or myth?
Okay is it true that the Spaniard are mixed with the Jews and the Roma gyspies?
Okay is it also true some tribes in West Africa are the lost tribes of the Hebrews/Jews?
And the Cambodians. Their physical appearance differs quite a lot from the other Asians. Are they mixed with Africans or Indians from India?

Suppose that a new “miracle pill” is developed that will allow a person to function with only one hour of sleep per night. However, because a night’s sleep is so short, a person who takes the pill will never dream again. Knowing what you do about the functions of sleep and dreaming, what would be some advantages and drawbacks of such a pill from a personal standpoint? Would you take such a pill?
