What is a personality for?

All animals have them... And i understand that it is our own 'Personal Identity'

But what actually is it that causes us to have a personality and why?

If there was no after life, and nothing existed after death (memories, experiences gone),
surely we wouldnt've had that personality in the first place if it'll inevitably became non-exsistent for all eternity?

does that mean god exisists and a personality is our proof?

It could be that you loose your exsistence but not for eternity, it would have to come back to play at some point if what you are doing now could exsist at all.

Nowadays, I am feeling a little depressed as I think my life is boring. I'm a student and when I graduate from high school, I'm going to college, get a degree and find a job,date,get married and then die. In a way, i think that my life is planned out.

In addition, I have no directions in my life. I don't even know what I want to be or do after i graduate!I seem to be heading nowhere, like a lost soul.

To sum it up, I feel like I'm living to die but I won't die yet as I am waiting for something exciting to happen.Sometimes, I wish my life is like a movie but that's too far-stretched.

As for my friends, I have plenty of them but I don't have a closed one.

Hi everybody,

Here is the dream that she had the other night but a little background info first...

I have been with my girlfriend for about a year and have a son (4 years old) from a previous relationship. My girlfriend finds it hard that she can't do what she wants with me on the spur of the moment as she always has to take my son into account. She does not want children of her own.

and now the dream....

We were living in a nice house with a garden, she said that it was a typical family house. We had a number of cats and dogs as pets, she said about 5 or 6 of each. I was out somewhere and she came home and went inside. Everything was covered in blood. My son had killed all the pets by stabbing them to death with a knife. He then came into the room still holding the knife (he was 4 in the dream) and had a posessed look. He started to stride towards my girlfriend who then picked up a knife and stabbed him to death!

Help, any idea what that means?

Thanks.

I was recently talking to a friend of mine online (I don't know him in real life, but I met him playing a videogame online) and he was telling me about how he doesn't have any real-life friends and that it's hard for him to make friends because he's so self-conscious about how he looks and all that (he's like your standard case of the videogame geek with acne).

Anyway, he went on to tell me more about how he hasn't really done anything with his life after high school, and he's just going to a community college not knowing what he wants to do in life, still living at home with mom, and all sorts of other depressing things. He spends almost all of his time at home in his room playing this online video game and thinks his life is really dreary and that there's no purpose (though I don't know if he is suicidal or not: I hope not) and that he might just sign his life away to the Army to be a part of something and not feel so lonely all the time.

I'm no therapist: what should I tell him?

I do not usually dream but I've dreamed two dreams within 2 weeks, and one about a month ago, all resembling eachother!! On the first one, i was making out with my instructor whom i had a crash on for like two years. Somebody has told me he'd like me coz i've got the kind of body he generally likes but he was married so i didn't dare go near him. The second dream was with an old friend (a guy who liked me but got tired of waiting for me to break up with my then-boyfriend and had no interest in me whatsoever when i actually broke up with him :>) and since for some reason we were trying to make it a secret (he was married in my dream, although i'm the one who is actually married in real life) it was soooo enjoyable. After i woke up, i kept trying to go back to it and couldn't. Needless to say i don't get that kind of joy from making out with my husband however much i love him. And I love my husband. He's the best thing that ever happened to me. Last night, i had another dream of kissing somebody who i am not married to. This time a guy i have never even seen in real life but very hot looking. It breaks my heart to remember how crazy the feeling was to kiss him, how wonderful, how absolutely amazing!. It's like the first kiss on the first few days of falling in love. *sigh* I think i am having these dreams because i miss the feeling of falling in love and all that goes with it. And ofcourse because there is nothing interesting in my life anymore - i don't have a life :>. Could there be any other interpretation?!

I'll give you the parts I remember.

I was walking to go to school and across the street was a group of Asian men, standing and sitting at the front of a car, with nice suits on staring at me as I walked in the building. Than I saw a young Asian boy carrying a gun just walking down with it. I had a rifle gun that kept on needing to be reloaded. Next I was walking in this grassy area and these asteroids came down from out the sky with a loud noise and continued to hit the ground near me. I think one of them came close to hitting me. What does this dream means?

I just woke up from one of the scariest dreams of my life! That is why I am up at 3:30 AM. This girl who I feel very close to is a little stressed out(in the dream that is). We end of getting closer past the friendship due to her need of someone, or so I think. Everyone is trying to help her with her situation even though there actually is no major problem to state or so I believe. The next day, I am driving along a neighborhood street, and she is hung off a tree... I instantly woke up totally shocked and even had some tears in my eyes. What does this mean?

A lady with no job or skill and is desperate to the extent of committing suicide approaches you. She is hungry and needs help. You are to advise her not as a pastor but as a marketer.
What will you tell her or how will you solve her problems

I read somewhere that someone did a study on Ouija boards - where they blindfolded participants and they couldn't formulate a message. My rationale is that there must be a unique psychology to who will chose to move the Ouija when playing, and who will sit back and allow the Ouija to be moved. Did you move the Ouija? And if you did, did you conceptualize this as actuality?

You know the song, "Slipping Into Darkness"?
I just dived right in. My face looks dry and scaley my eyes don't open wide. I'm not bathing to often. I've gained 10 lbs in 2 weeks. I won't clean up. I need a job. I'm going back to school. I'm afraid it won't work. I think no one likes me. I don't believe in love. I've been disappointed with love I thought I found. Now I don't think it was ever love. The list goes on, but you get the picture.
