Philosophy - August 2007

..through the hurdles?

Is it okay for anyone to want to get things right the first time, and how many people actually do?

Have you seen anyone who has never really failed, maybe not for all aspects of life, but for some?

For instance, (just an example), a straight 'A' student gets straight 'A's throughout their educational path, gain their honors and presidents' scholarship or doctorate?

Have these people actually experienced defeat or failure, even a major setback, to their educational path, I mean. I know that alot of academics are perfectionists and suffer from internal stress like depression.

If you failed in an aspect of life, can you redeem yourself, considering everything is accumulated and used to show as a step for the next level?

To see if we learned from the previous experiences? Then teach the new persons? Is this life? Lessons, experiences? People, habits, traditionals,clothes, food, drinks, tv, internet, education, travelling,smiling,having fun, share stories, go parties, sign contracts,saving then spending money, dating men/girls?? Sure family and friends are here!!

What? what more will change in the future? Will i still do these stuff after years?? I'm a teen so i wonder is this life goes on and on like that?

Many things considered awful today were politically correct in recent history... Some things today are so!
Biological differences between men and women are mostly out now! Yet, viewing men as always more violent than women is OK!
A guy getting slapped by a girl is fine, but the contrary seams not to be acceptable...! Both are violent acts of the same scale! Why are feminists not righting that wrong?
These are the example that ran my mind now... There are example in many other field besides gender. Use your own or whatever! Is politically correctness good or bad for society? can it hide great evils behind current social acceptance or falsehood.

This was inspired by a question posted earlier by Rena

Don't deny yourself the opportunity to learn from the hidden lessons in mistakes and misgivings.


There was a time in my life when all I wanted to do was forget the bad times, the mistakes I had made.
I thought that if I forgot....the pain would stop.
Instead, because of the pain....I could never forget.
So I thought to myself.....What can I do to make this pain leave?
I trusted Creator that there was a lesson I needed to learn,
I searched deep, located hidden lessons, learned from them and moved forward.
With trust and new knowledge, the benefits of not forgetting
these bad times are to numerous to count. It has not been an easy journey....but it has proven to be an important one.
But most of importance, i feel, was not only did I learn from hidden lessons, but, I learned more of myself and of the others involved. This brought about a level of understanding. Understanding encouraged healing. Healing helped lessen the pain. The existing pain reminded me there was still leaning to do yet. So the journey of Life continues.
Learning and healing as I walk the road placed before me.
I am now Thankful I never forgot. It gave me the opportunity to learn and grow. To move forward.
I hurt less now, most hurts are gone completely.
It is the journey of healing my inner child.

Thank you Creator for loving me enough to teach me, Thank you for teaching me to love myself

Thank You Creator for helping me learn the hidden lessons, I trust that your guidance will always help my pains to heal.

What can we hope to achieve with reason, when all the material and assistance of experience are taken away?

You know what I mean..Its all right to take the lives of chickens, cows, pigs, lambs, turkeys etc..But it is considered INHUMAN to kill a DOMESTICATED ANIMAL?

Is it because we have EMOTIONAL connections with our pets that is NOT RIGHT? But its considered as OK if we dont have emotional connection with the animal? I mean if you had a BELOVED chicken or cow... you wouldnt really want to eat it... right?

Is this the same case for HUMANS? We dont really CARE if someone else is SUFFERING as long as we dont have emotional connection with them? But if its a LOVED one we'd do ANYTHING to make them feel better. Is this somehow connected with our ANIMAL INSTICT and SURVIVAL INSTICTS?

So therefore we CANNOT really achieve peace because deep down inside everyone of us is BORN selfish with their own hidden adgendas that probably contradicts someone elses hidden adgendas in life. Thus conflict.

I hope you understand what I mean..thank you for your time.

Have a good day! And comment.

I am! I exist—this is certain. But for how long? For as long as I am thinking; for perhaps it could also come to pass that if I were to cease all thinking I would then utterly cease to exist.
