Live chat is the best though and these forums bring that .

Chat is best relaxed . Guys you don't need to try with me . You don't need to worry about being blocked . Just relax and be yourself .

I guess these threads work when there is a topic. Or people want to fight . I'm not offering either .

I had such a feeling of meaningless today. The idea that all is nature is so disillusioning that it's hard to cope with.

Feeling the self slip away is actually extremely uncomfortable.

It struck me though that to be mindful isn't about holding beliefs at all.

It's no wonder free will is so popular . To imagine that all there is is evolution makes our life absolutely meaningless. Who wants to believe that?

I have polar opposites with my experience and my logic. My logic tells me nothing matters and my experience tells me that the beauty in my life matters to me.

I'm regretting leaving Mexi's thread but I don't want to be anywhere I have to pretend someone isn't around . I'm 44 not 4. That's not for me .

I wish I could fit it. But you know I am who I am and life is what it is.

interesting Ruth. I guess it was just a term of love really. Meaning I love you and appreciate you, you know?

the God vs nature argument is had on this site time and gain. I wonder why some people turn to religion during their lives and some away from religion. That's a curiousity to me. I can say myself that the more stressed I've become the more superstitious I've become. 

I'm personally not interested in debating whether or not God exists. In fact I'm not even interested in exploring what nature is really any more. 

All the hours spent here debating such a thing. Do the religious or the non relgious people change their views? I wouldn't have thought so. Just a waste of time in my view.

that said I'm relaxed with you and I want you to be relaxed with me so feel free to be yourself here, whatever that means.

That other forum is life just a waste of time? Seems to match some of my wondering at the moment.

But you know that's a subjective view and comes from this idea of self. Perhaps the healthiest and happiest and functional we can be is just to be, be nature .

I saw a trailer for a Woody Allen movie yesterday where he quoted Socrates, something like a life left unconsidered isn't a life worth having at all .

I'm not sure that's true though. I think perhaps the best we can do is truly live in the moment, and that's not about thought at all, only awareness .

I think you should change your avatar first. It's not nice at all. You look at his face everyday and your sub concious mind is taking his form and his qualities.. Change your avatar to something nice. I'm just saying. It's your wish after all. Smile

I'm just thinking about nature. If you look at the science, love is about chemicals, oxytocin and so on.

I wonder if it would be kinder to chemically or genetically alter people that are less inclined to love.

If I'm honest I don't believe that a person that's not biologically inclined to love exists, but I wonder if it would be kinder to change them if they were that way.
