So I just got back into taking pointe after six years of being off. I've always worn Blocks or Grishko, but was wondering if anyone has another suggestion. I'm a little older now and don't have the same strength as I did when I stopped pointe in 2000. Suggestions?

The only reason I exist, is it to think and feel?

What if the essence of me, that which I am only now to see exist, what if it was to see the futility of thought and speech?

If that alone was not cause for my physical demise, would I still not live a life of death?

But to only experience myself die a thousand fold, is that not worth life?

To be without life nor death, contentment of sorrow, lovingly wicked, depressingly inspired... what is to be God is to be acknowledged.

That is to be you me, and anything else I desire, no longer shall we suffer together.

I will create and destroy you, mold you through yourselves, until my own madness should end. We are one.

I will squeeze the bloody life out of you until I understand my own. I will drop bombs on every aspect of myself until nothing exist. Until I no longer need to think and feel, time will cease to exist.

Then you will know me, address me as you would yourselves, for I am everything until you understand we are nothing.

If anyone has read the Alex Rider adventure series I;m a bit confused on the ending of Scorpia, the 5th book. In the end Alex is shot but it says that he feels no pain and just smiles and closes his eyes. Does this mean he died?

My beliefs are pretty much a mix of methodism/deism/quantum physics, and i believe that your perception of the world, its gods, and your ideas about the afterlife and the state of the universe will determine what you percieve as your afterlife. In quantum physics, time does not exist. Also, in order to exist, something must be observed. As time does not exist, and the perception of time is simply our minds viewing the different probabilities the world may exist in. Therefore, all people are both alive and dead. In order to observe ourselves and observe others, we must exist. As something cannot both exist and not exist, only change form or be transfered between dimensions, the sentience that inhabits our bodies must persist after death for us to observe our lives, as both life and death occur simultaniously according to this worldview.

Therefore, there must be something beyond death.

Your thoughts?

i am amazed at how many people really think this. do they not realize that he started showing up in a uniform as soon they started talking of a army. most will say will it was in his speech to Congress after but they only see half the speech here it is

I beg they will accept my cordial thanks for this distinguished testimony of their approbation. But lest some unlucky event should happen, unfavorable to my reputation, I beg it may be remembered by every gentleman in the room that I this day declare with the utmost sincerity I do not think myself equal to the command I am honored with. As to pay, Sir, I beg leave to assure the Congress that as no pecuniary consideration could have tempted me to accept this arduous employment at the expense of my domestic ease and happiness, I do not wish to make any profit from it. I will keep an exact account of my expenses. Those I doubt not they will discharge, and that is all I desire."

he is protecting his honor by saying he didn't want it.
