@Chights47,
Quote:Perfection should be our goal in everything that we do and we should always set goals far beyond ourselves so that we really have something to shoot for. As a child I use to hate how my parent made me feel that I was never good enough because they always wanted more but now I see the wisdom in that. We should never be content with who we are and what we are capable of because we should always strive to be better than that.
A person who is a failure, is a person who gave up trying, not one who lost and tried. I am definately a goal orientated person.. I am onto my third business, and won't give up until I succeed but what is success? To me, I agree, it's something you shoot for and don't give up until you succeed.
As a child I hated the way my parents wrapped me in cotton wool, or stated you will never be a singer, or your neck is too long to be a Model... But, I did both.. Their wisdom to me was old fashioned, tough love, did it make me stronger though and a will and desire to prove them wrong? Yes...to a point, at around 25 I realised, it was time to live for me.. Since then, even if my Mother said, I "hate your red lipstick", I would turn around and say "Well, you're not wearing it I am and I like it"... We have a good relationship now, all-be-it she still has to be right all the time
I can say that I am happy within myself, and because of that, I can and do accept people for who they are. I think the two go together.
Quote:I can only assume that's what you mean when you state this "I love physcology which also means that I am a logical thinker", but that's not really important. You say that you will attempt to think logically before making a conclusion, then wouldn't it be more logical to say you don't know what happens when a person dies then believing in the supernatural do to the god of the gaps argument? Science has always be the one to overturn supernatural claims and it has never been the other way around.
I'm a very deep person, that and a Gemini
I may say something but I will do more than just that, there is more to me than just being.. The internet is a hard place to show who you are totally.
Perhaps logical isn't the right word.. I will or did, view things as they occured, questioned it, trying to find a possible that made sense, in this World.. It could have been the wind, maybe I just guessed.. But, ultimately, when so many things happen you end up thinking, ok, there has to be something outside of this World I can't find the answer, or explain it. Reading minds? I can explain, our minds are powerful, it makes sense that some people are capable of somehow talking to each other without speaking.. Reading ahead of time, let me give you one or two more quick examples. For instance, I experimented with reading jewelery, jokingly. I wrote down the things that came to thought.. I told my ex husband that he would be driving in the hills and to turn right, instead of left and to be careful.. 3 Weeks later, he rang me whilst up in the hills, he turned left not right and a truck un-loaded it's goods on his car, fortunately only the front hood and so he was safe... Once, a guy was getting bullied on a Forum, I PM'd him and said, "Why aren't you telling them that she was your girlfriend for 7 years, that would stop all the arguements?" He came back and stated " How did you know that? I never wrote that anywhere, I was with her for 7 years ?" And, honestly I had no friggen idea where that came from.. So, would some people see that also as "spritiual?".. Not many people have that gift. What is the gift? How can that be explained ? I can't and so I see it as a gift and spritual...
I can't say I don't know what happens when a person dies.. Because, I do.. Yes, logic says "I don't know" but I can't walk into a jaol without feeling over-whelmed with thickness surrounding me, I've seen what I call ghosts in my life, I tried to explain it, but I know the first time, I was definately awake, after all I sat up to be sure and it disappeared. I know that my Grandmother's apron even though she tied it in a knot, would keep un-doing and fall on the ground in front of us in the same house.. I know that logic says if you are blowdrying your hair and the hair dryer is pointing to the wall on the other side, papers on the wardrobe can't just fall down with gusto, when the air is blowing in the opposite direction.. So to me, logic is, to me and only to me, that souls live past our bodies and so, that's the end of that story. No point going on as you say, I have to go with my own gut feeling, as you do.
Quote:Would you be interested in watching a rather long,
I'm always up for learning and I'll take what seems to fit in with my thoughts as well as "oh, that makes sense", so absolutely and thank you.
But, if this video explains the apron, then I will believe there is no ghosts
Quote:So then what happens to the other 1/3rd of his life? Does it factor in at all or is it just wiped from existence? What if it was completely even, factoring in any bias to the good side, for example if 50-50 would be given to good what about 49-51 to make up for the difference (or something along those lines).
I can almost visualise now this dude, walking around as soul with a split personality, changing from one side to the other... Now that would make more sense.
How can we predict this honestly, like you said this would go on forever.....
