Do you have any deep thoughts you want to share?

Question

I need something to think about, so share away, please!

Answer 1

All right, I'd probably type up a short story I wrote for my Hero but this is something I have spent a great deal of time thinking about... the fact that when we meet someone their life gets connected with ours. And so on. We all have a story... and we keep adding to it and as we meet people these stories add up and over flow. Revealing the world's truth before my eyes:

A beautiful 6-year-old girl silently holds her mothers hand in the crowd of the sky train. She looks around, smiling faces, some worried, most bored. Her silence defeating her, her brown eyes with full with love and memories like a storm. In this crowd she stands unknown... her daddy; an Honourable Police Officer died a year ago on thee front line to protect...

An old lady crossing the street wondering if she'll make it across. A cane in her hand; step-by-step. Impatient drivers talking on their cell phones, waiting for the green light. Suddenly she's knocked to the ground by the force of a speeding car. The crowd watch as the life runs out of her. Honking cars - screams - yet everything is so still. She couldn't make it across...

After 2 years he found the courage to ask her out on a date. Now 4 years later he asks her to marry him. She says yes!
A couple celebrates their 40th anniversary. Those years of disagreements and lonely nights, years of love and trust they made it together. Their integrity, still there till this day. Smiles never faded, as their hair turns grey in time. Tears never wiped and candles not yet blown. A crowd of relatives stands by as they dance to the same song of their wedding night. They promise to love till their last breath.

She writes a letter, her hands shaking endlessly as tears fill her eyes. She can barely see as she writes on a smudged paper... she's going to attempt suicide. No one is at home, no one knows. She's alone, no ears willing to listen, no eyes willing to look. She wants a better life, doesn't know it could be worse. Her life is written in a diary lies under her clothes in the closet, wrinkled pages due to tears. She's got a rope tied to the ceiling fan... she wants to become an artist doesn't know a letter sits in the mailbox reading her acceptance to one of the top college... she doesn't know at all.

The first kiss of her first love... received on her 18th birthday. He promises to be by her side when she is blue. He'll be a shoulder to cry on, a mountain of happiness.

Five years he spent doing nothing... somehow couldn't grasp the years pass by. Great business, a beautiful home, a lovely family he dreamt of but he thought he isn't worth it, still does. He has a great talent, accepted by many but he doesn't believe he'll make it. So he complains about how life is unfair... still does and probably will go on about doing so...

This is a world of hatred, ignorance, lack of understanding, simplicity, beauty, love and care.... all depends on how we look at it. My Hero for instance has taught me what beauty my future can hold for me and has prepared me for the worse to come... I think we all makes mistakes when time calls for it. Holding a grudge against someone is as same as burning down your house to get rid of a rat. And stabbing someone with a knife, drawing it out then apologizing repeatedly isn't going to help because the wound is still visible. God will never give you more then you can handle. And that Mark, is what I consider the beauty of life!

Stay safe. - Maryam

Answer 2

Behaved Git chapter 2 verse 20 says, " No soul is born, no soul does die, embodiments get remodelled, since evolution is the name of advancement towards True Self hood."
The Soul or Atman is the universal absolute. Throughout your life's journey, although your body changes from a child to an adult. You feel that you have a constant identity. When present body dies to be born again spirit remains unchanged. Lord Krishna said, " For the soul there is never birth or death. It is unborn, eternal, ever existing. It is not slain when body is slain.

Answer 3

Heres a good thought to ponder:

Try to think of it in an unbiased view (in this case in a non religious view)


Would the world be a better place if religion never existed since tons of wars and people are killed by religion or would it make no difference?

Answer 4

Have you really paid attention some answers in Yahoo answers? Most people seem agressive toward what they believe in. Maybe you won't notice this, but I do. When you question someone with their beliefs: religion, politics, sexuality, and all other subjects of life. People are agressive, and those that will not agree with me will get angry with this answer, because they believe they are such good persons. I agree, I'm agressive too, you don't need to tell me. But what is this agressiveness that is common in all human beings? Have you ever thought about this?

Answer 5

I still like to chew on the "Perception forms Belief and Belief defines Reality" theory every once in a while. To perceive something develops a belief in that item's existence in a person's mind. It's this belief that grants the item existence to that person. If an item is not believed to exist and no perception takes place to change that belief, the item doesn't exist. If the item is then perceived, the belief may change and now the item exists. If peception takes place but it's not strong to change the belief set, it's taken as an known illusion or rejected altogether.

Someone mentioned to me once, "What about this table in front of us? Someone in China, say, has never perceived it so it doesn't exist to them, but it does exist right here in front of us. They just haven't gotten around to viewing it yet." Once they perceive, they believe, then it exists. It already exists to us because we believe it does. If we believe only what we perceive, reality would actually be rather limited. Foreign countries we've never visited wouldn't exist, along with their citizens. We believe these places exist, and so they do. The size of our universe, then, is dependent on how big we believe it to be. Believe it to be infinite and it is, unless some perception changes your belief later on.

So if I believe this theory to be true, it is -- unless I'm convinced otherwise (change in belief). If I believe it to be false, then my belief would make it false if in fact the theory was actually true (reality would follow my belief). But knowning this theory is then actually true and not false like I believed, my belief would change so I would now believe the theory is true -- and so it is.

D'oh!

Answer 6

What if the pain and suffering of the world was a test to help us grow and come closer to enlightenment. Perhaps the world will never do away with greed, hate and evil. Its about balance, if we don't know misery or pain how can we appreciate happiness and peace?

Answer 7

I don't have any deep thoughts that I want to share, but I feel you do. Email me.

Answer 8

no, but i have a petty thought to share....one would think that if a person is intelligent,successful, educated, and wealthy, he or she would have better things to do than be petty as a high school student. this is not the case....why?......if you've got it all, why do you need to compete on a petty 'he said, she said' basis. doesn't make sense to me. don't people ever learn?

Answer 9

Somebody had better do something about something or nothing will wind up being everything.
