In my quest for absolute peace, I have been slowly leaving bits and pieces of my life behind. Things that I once thought were important to me, I realised weren't, and cast them aside. I do not need things like games and TV to find happiness and peace.
So I've left them behind me. Unfortunately, I've now realised that Answers is not going to help, either. My journey is with myself, by myself, and for myself, so I am planning to leave my computer behind, too.
*maybe* I'll be back, but I don't think so
((((HUGS EVERYONE, many times over))))

Dear friend you will be missed, but I understand your quest because I once trod that path. Good luck and may your life be filled with love and happiness always.

My friend,
In the words of Lao Tzu:
"I have just three things to teach:
Simplicity, patience, compassion.
These three things are your greatest treasures.
Simple in actions and in thoughts,
You return to the source of being.
Patient with both friends and enemies,
You accord with the way things are.
Compassionate toward yourself,
You reconcile all beings in the world."
In the words of Robert Frost:
"Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."
((((HUGS)))))
Blessings to YOU
Namaste
Peace and Love

Just read through most of your questions and answers, and I just wish I could have had the friendship with you some of the others have. You really do seem like a remarkable person.
Anyway, good luck on your journey. As long as "absolute peace" doesn't mean anything too sinister. Just take care, won't you?
regards

Life is one BIG journey. There is SO much more...DISCOVER it! A journey not taken is a life not lived. After ALL your travels and experiences are done, you will find that it leads you quietly back to the starting point. Only to discover what you sought has always been with you.
Thank you once again.

Nooooooo!!!! Not the Holy Bunny!!!
I wish you the best, my friend. It has been a pleasure having you amongst us, and I hope that your journey doesnt end up as lonely as it sounds... You will always have friends here among us.
On another note, Ive come to find much pleasure in games - can I have your old stuff? Just kidding :) But, I have noted that I actually do get much pleasure from this site and all of the friends I have come to know through this medium... Its hard to find many people in real life that care to have the intellectual conversations we carry on here. And, I really do enjoy this. You will be missed. I hope you do one day return!!

Holy Bunny, I've only ever seen you a few times in the forum, and from what I've read here, not knowing you is my loss. Everyone seems to think quite highly of you.
Good luck on your spiritual journey. May you find peace within yourself, and may your life be one of happiness. Best to you.

We've never really spoken before, but I have seen many of your posts here, and have come to know you as an intelligent, kind and thoughtful person.
The path you have chosen is both courageous and adventurous. I wish that I too had the courage to shed the unnescessary clutters of my life.
I wish you well in your journey, but know that if you do decide to return, you'll be greeted with open arms.

It is good that you are turning off the neon lights and forsaking the peripheral trappings and glitter of the world,evidently(I assume) in single minded pursuit of spiritual growth and or enlightenment..However,don't forsake the people of the world in attempting monk hood...no one is an island and we all need each other...Even the Apostle Paul,only communed alone with God,for a period of 3 years. Good luck,we will miss you...I think that you will be back..(((Bunny)))
