Just generally. The very least for an actor starting out and the very most you could get paid.

I have reviewed websites like nridivorce.com but I was wondering if there are other popular discussion forums

I just picked up two of his pieces... "Brief History of Everything" and "A Theory of Everything". Any recommendations on which to read first? I just looked around a bit and see he's got much more out there than the bookstore had to offer. I'll definitely pick some more up, seems like some interesting material...

Have you ever read one of those books where it’s like there is a boy in a room, and it’s separate from you. You are an onlooker, an observer. You can almost peer through the walls. You can almost see him through this wall that does not exist, except it exists in the book. What if something happens simultaneously at once where you are both the boy and the onlooker? The boy he is absorb in his action. He is absorbed within himself. He is absorbed in the moment. I am the boy, and I am the onlooker. It is weird, but it feels like there is some kind of detachment from myself. I am in the moment of the moment, but at the same time it’s almost as if I am outside looking in at myself—but I can’t really see myself. It is such that I am there, but yet I am elsewhere. I have so much to say, so many questions to ask—and at the same time nothing. Everything is a blank. I mean what is there to say, ask really? All there is is curious wonder. There are no questions, because the answer to most questions is it is what it is. I find that questions such as what is ego, and what is true happiness are questions to which there is no one answer—but yet we sit there and ask them anyways. For what? What purpose do such questions serve? Are these not questions that one can answer for oneself?

All of this is so strange and unfamiliar, and I don’t even know who to talk to. I want to talk to someone, but I feel that my thoughts have traveled a realm where they might have become inexpressible. There is more than just this detachment. There has been something that feels like a muted heart as if I am only ruled by my mind. My feelings are not devoid, but they are nonsensical. I am aware of their existence, because I can feel them form on my face. My mind is aware of them--but not my heart. How am I functioning when I feel so unfunctional you know? At moments weariness comes over, because I can’t grasp some unknown, and I cannot find myself within myself. I have so much to say, but yet there is nothing to say you know. I don’t know if curious wonder is the right word for what I am experiencing, but I don’t know what else.

I notice how the wind influences one particular branch on the tree, how in its subtle movements the branch is pulling itself towards the wind but yet it is withdrawing, pulling itself away from the wind so that it appears to be betwixt within its own occurrence. I am that branch. I am heaving steadily forward (towards the direction of the wind), but yet held in place by the undivided tree.


Perhaps, someone can IM me if you think you can even begin to talk to me? For all I know this can be the most convoluted question you ever encountered. I wish that people would be honest and say what their heart truly means. So honestly tell me what you take of this question and what you take of me, and not just pass it aside just because it is easier to do so.

I`m sorta new to the whole 'tablet' instead of pen/pencil/crayon/etc thing so I had a question. Looking at some videos of various tablets I noticed some allow you to draw and see what you`re drawing on the actual tablet (like the cintiq (sp?) while others, you can`t see what you draw on the tablet, you have to look up at the screen like intuos. is this correct? and if so, which is easier for a tablet beginner?

IF you come up with the right answer and explain it, you will get the prize($1000 USD). IF nobody gets it, I will ask another question. These are legitimate questions. IF you're a lover of wisdom, you don't need to know more.

Thank you and good luck!

Are our brains just part of the interacting environment or are they immune to causing forces and have some ability to create choices without any causing.

Every drawing book I get it tells you to start with a stick figure (referred to as "pipe figure in the book") then add on layers until you have a finished person. But this is very hard for me. I can copy a drawing better without doing this, but it says to never try and draw an already finished drawing.

Is it really necessary to draw "pipe drawings" first. And if so, why am I having such a hard time with it?

I live in Japan right now and know that many of Japanese people like White people but hate Blacks or Chinese or other Asians(same race though). I have known many non-Japanese in Japan and seen they are treated very differently and felt so bad about it. Most people here treat White people so nice but say horrible things about other Asians. And the White people who are treated nicely don't even realize that the Japanese people are treating them nicely because of their race.

I myself am Japanese and have some adapted family from other country. One is my brother who is White. I have also Chinese and Indian family(not so close family though). And the thing is, I'm feeling really horrible to see those most of people who treat non-Japanese differently by one's race. I am feeling bad and upset.

How can I deal with this upset feeling?

when we claim to love someone, aren't we basically saying that we like the way that particular person makes us feel, aren't we just in love with this feeling we get when we are around this person? isn't that selfish? we don't actually love our love interest, we love how they make us feel. When you cry for someone, who left, lets say you broke up with your girlfiend or whatnot, and you cry while she is having a good time, isn't it obvious that you are crying for yourself?

many people think the clothes they wear represent their individual selves, who they are. I say they couldn't be more wrong, as they did not design the clothes themselves did they? they also did not invent whatever movement/fad the clothes were created for right? they are products of everything they had ever been exposed to right, therefore they are not individual, and cloathes cannot possibly express their personality as obviously they were conceived by someone else, and no one really has an original personality.
