I guess though maybe the more we worry the more we feel we are making choices and have free will and the less we worry the more we feel we are just acting naturally and everything is pure causality .

Bless you vishyanand.

He said just phone me in a few months . It was awful . He'd said he wasn't himself last time we talked . That he'd fell back in his wheelchair . I don't feel particularly beautiful right now but I know I mean him no harm . I just think maybe his interest has come too late . There's been too much pain and I just don't want it anymore .

It's ironic though because I would love to be wanted by people and he's one of very few that do want me .

I suppose if you think of this whole observing thing , perhaps you wouldn't expect a person to experience a choice in that scenario . I guess when you're observing that's what you are doing , observing , not - choosing . So perhaps if choice exists we can't observe it . It happens then we are thinking rather than just observing . Analysing .
tomtrytostay
Though I think the whole thing is like analysing you see all the different factors then that want just exists.

tomtrytostay
Perhaps it's about terminology . What is a choice ?

If it's just observing all the options then seeing what you feel like I get that .

Ghostess talked about choice being about doing what you want . Is this choice ? To me anyway true choice is choosing what you want to do .

I don't think we can . I don't think we can choose what we do or what we believe .

I'm interested though . I'll sum up what I believe happens when a selection is made . Bear in mind that most of our behaviour is entirely automatic . Driven by the subconscious . For example we can actually drive home without even noticing where we are . Sometimes we can even drive to the wrong place if our subconscious gets its wires crossed
tomtrytostay
Anyway here is what I think happens . We take a view of the situation . I guess sometimes we might think through all the factors and sometimes not . Then we want . We don't choose that want . It just exists . We act on it . People say we don't always do what we want but we do . It's not about what we'd like to do .

Not I want to go to the beach but I have to work . It's about I want to go to work because I need the cash .

So where does this want come from ? Einstein talked about internal and external needs .

I think you'll find if we understood science absolutely as hawking said there is no need for a creator . If we understood our internal and external needs fully we'd realise that there's no need for the free wu idea
tomtrytostay
Anyway . What I'd say is if you believe in free will tell me how that happens . How do we make a choice ? Do we act on an impulse ? Think about what a person should do ? What ?
tomtrytostay
I do think we have to be our own natural selves . How can we listen to anyone if our head is full of thoughts ? How can anyone love us if they don't know us?

That's not to say we can do whatever the heck we want , the people in our lives have to give us a steer about what they need . It's just about being who we are and letting go .

I guess a person can't help noticing things . I think it's only the mapping really a person could argue is dysfunctional .

Although I tend not to solve . I guess a blanket decision not to solve / to be mindful , might be unhealthy
tomtrytostay
I'm just looking through my old mapping . I've found one I'd like to share . This Omfoc was about functioning by the way . Being healthy

Prevention of paranoia . Choose not to solve (when perceive have to solve choice doesn't exist)
tomtrytostay
I'll share this too
tomtrytostay
Although choosing not to solve iro problem is the theoretical solution for a disorder , during disorder cannot see problem for what it is due to paranoia . Therefore the practical solution to a disorder is not to create paranoia through choosing not to solve . ( when perceive have to solve choice doesn't exist )

I'll answer your question and comment on your statement . You say life is you but is that so ? What is this I that you refer to?

I'll go into more detail .

I told you, a bunch of chemicals. Always with an urge to reproduce myself. Luckily I got a vasectomy years ago.

tomtrytostay
And I'll share these .
Prevention / Solution disorder .
Choose not to solve
(When perceive have to choice doesn't exist )
tomtrytostay
Right pulp . Well my friend those bunch of chemicals you are talking about are everywhere right ? What's to say they aren't in many other universes and in many more that will be made too . So if you don't describe those chemicals as 'I ' perhaps you won't be so sure that life will end after all .
tomtrytostay
I had a vasectomy too . God awful . Worth it though right ?!
tomtrytostay
I like the new page started with that !!!
tomtrytostay
Okay continuing revealing my old map.

I don't recognise problem or cause . I only recognise choice whether or not to solve .
