Yea the question is a bit emotional. But i just finished watching a video, concerningn poverty in the U.S and it really touched me. Like you usually see, america as this beatuiful place, but in some states, you see people suffering and i thought my life was sucky. Like they're living basically the the stone age, sad to say, their homes are like those of 3rd world countries. It's very very sad, i actually shed a tear. Its' just not fair, i often ask myself, why are people so ignorant and violent. When you try to understand their circumstance, and why they have to steal, they can't read...it just shows you the world we live in. I think it needs severe change, and most can't see this because they're too comfortable in their own life, working and then going home and sleep. they barely have time to recognise the world around them, I dont know, its confusing. Maybe i think i need to do something to change it, but i think many people have that attitude, but how can you change the world!?

I am 100% sure due to my verifications in this moment that my life is a perfect reflection of my habits of thought and also of my every want and diswant (which is a want). Yet years of effort have so far resulted in limited success as far as transforming the negative focus Considering where this life could have easily went I am indeed a very lucky person.in a manner of speaking since luck does not exist. Yet I want more.
When a friend points an occasion out to me when I am negatively focussed, my vanity sends me into denial or at least into excuse fabrication. I am watching all the while although from a step or two behind to prevent low self-esteem thoughts from taking space or worse yet guilt ones, yet I want success in achieving more. Could it be that I lack trust and/or courage? That would seem a bit ridiculous given my last 16 years' history of heroic effort, yet some of the fear scars are definitely still there.
Philosophically, could it be that there is a limit ?

Over population is a myth.
There are no food or resource shortages.
Global Warming if it does exist is not necessarily bad.

So what are the real problems and how do we work on fixing them?

The theory of evolution is based on the premise that matter arranges itself from the simple to the complex. If that is the case, how is it that there were no complex structures before there was life? Even the most sophisticated house is not as complex as a human life form. Why didn't matter arrange itself into houses? Or machines? Even if there was no use for those things, since practical use isn't part of the equation of the arrangement of matter, why did life come first?

What is the Answer to The Ultimate Question Of Life, the Universe and Everything?

2007-01-28 09:08:59 · 13 answers · asked by nonono 3

Would you look back and change things if you could, if so like what? What would be the climax? Would it involve saving lives? Are there choices you've wish you had made sooner or not at all? Would it be inspirational or motivational?

What type of book would it most likely be?
Accounting/Cooking/Carpenty/Plumbing/Rocket Science/Travel/etc...

Which Section would it be put under?
A mystery/suspense/crime/action/ etc...

I like to think about this from time to time to think about what I should do next in order to make it interesting for the reader (if there was one). This would be like trying new sports, or going to different places that would create new experiences.

I believe my life would be in the comedy section really. I find humour in almost anything amusing. There'd be a huge section for electronics in there somewhere as well.

Anyways Im still young, only 19, so I'm hopin the book turns out to be something that even I would have bought in a store.

That was a monumental realization for me. I'd always heard that we should forgive. But, I always thought I was doing the person who wronged me the favor.....not myself.

Then I realized just how much negativity that I was freeing myself of. It was truly MYSELF that I was doing the favor. When I started to forgive, it was like a huge weight was being lifted from my shoulders.

I am so happy that I have learned to accept the best parts of relationships and to "let go" the troublesome or hurtful aspects by forgiving. Thus, no more sad, hateful feelings to dwell within me.

Take the best, leave the rest.

If people someday invent a machine that can think, how should we treat it? Would it be ethical to make it do our laundry, wash our cars, mow the lawn, etc...? Would that be a kind of slavery? Would it be wrong to destroy a thinking machine? Is that murder? How would people treat an intelligent device? How should they treat it?
