Re: We could change our lives today! [Re: atomikfunksoldier]

I never said it wasn't possible, but it's very rare to meet somebody who is completely content with their life and can't think of a thing worth changing

I guess it's like if you grew up where people shot bullets around you every second of every day, and then one day somebody told you of a place where there are no bullets ... you'd have a bit of trouble believing this, no?

I said 'sound like' and 'who knows, I may be wrong' because I accept that I am just as wrong as I may be right. I never said you were truly in denial

In either case, I'm glad you are content with your life, I sure wish I was

for the record i dont think HB said that everyone has a fake smile.

because i smile doesnt mean it is fake. because this world is messed up doesnt mean that i still dont find things sometimes delightful.

and yes the stament could be construed to be a Cliche, but i think we are a little above using cliches to make a "fake" or "Cliche" type point dont you? .

it represents a FINE point.

a distinction have you. those who choose to accept the unknown and reality, or those who choose to remain in ignorant bliss. imo its a great example, and much easier to refrence.

this was made into a complicated nothingness incredibly fast, mabey thats our problem, we think too much. Turn off your internal dialouge, agree to change, and do it. if you think no more on the subject, the ball will be rolling. it gets caught up when you try to process it rationally. just like when you trip, you get caught up when you keep trying to process what is happening rather than if you just let go and embrace the void.

"Turn off your internal dialouge, agree to change, and do it."

so, instead of discussing an idea, we should just automatically adopt it?

Nice thread!

Half of me wants to knock you out
Half of me wants to tell you that I'm sorry, so sorry
Meanwhile, half of the world wants to scream and
shout at half of the world
Just like you and I
Just another fact of life
We plan and we scheme
'Til there's nothing left of our little dream
But half of the time I can't decide and
Half of the time I'm petrified

I want to change the world
I want to make it well
How can I change the world
When I can't change myself
Try again tomorrow
I'd love to change your mind
Capture your citadel
How could I change your mind
If I can't change myself
Try again tomorrow

Both of us want to win this fight
Both of us think the other is mistaken, so mistaken
Meanwhile, everyone wants to take up sides
So everyone helps us to fall apart
Just another fact of life
It's hard to play fair
And it's so easy to pretend to care
But if nobody wants to share the blame
Then everyone gets more of the same

If I want more peace in the world
Then I must make peace with myself
If I want more trust in the world
Then I've got to trust in myself
If I want more love in the world
I must show more love to myself

Change Myself-Todd Rundgren

Cheers,

yes, discusing it gets you nowhere, just leads to more questions, if you just do it, more often than not you find out really quick whether your doing the right thing or not. And if not, at least you did'nt waste all that time discusing stuff, doing nothing, and raising more questions for yourself. (as much as it sounds like i'm saying"blindly jump into things without considering what your doing" thats not what i'm getting at, even if you want to look at it that way)
