Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Greetings Margaret: I first would like to say I understand partly what you are saying about how you perceive life. I loved hearing your opinion. I never understand why people have to write back with saying how they feel about something without always adding the words...I don't want to argue here or anything....is there something I said that made you think that I want to? I know we all have different perceptions of life as so do the million other people out there. That's not a question....but it isn't the meaning of life either. I don't remember giving you my opinion on life and I don't see at all where you are trying to change mine but I found it interesting to read yours. My opinion is forever changing as I learn more, see more, experience more. I don't have an opinion etched in stone. Please don't compare life to a movie...sure he had memories of playing games with his father, but the movie ends. How was his life affected in a concentration camp, losing his father, what were his other memories and how much did he suffer from them. Multiple endings. Many things are conceivable to me, just as how you and everyone else write how they think or feel. It is their perception of life, their beliefs, their doorways. Of course I am wrong in some of my thinking for I am still learning. Don't tell me we are not wrong in what we think, say or do...come on...do you want me to start with Hitler or the mass murders. You say you have a different perception of life but you wernt born with it, you had to have learned it though the same process as myself...life...you are just at the point of thinking differently than me. Oh and one more thing....you had said we all live in our own reality..yes we do....Is that a good thing or bad...I have a sister that lives in her own reality...good person, kind, caring, helpful...professional nurse all her life......then one day she turned mentally ill. She now thinks her reality is okay. Its far from okay. Very far from okay and her 2 kids she took down with her. I think Hitler lived his own reality and Jeffery Dalmer lived his, and lest we not forget Manson. You are right in saying we are all trying to do the best we can with this mystery of life. You look at it one way, I seek every open door to forever learn. Blessing Is it conceivable to you that some of us have gotten beyond centering on the " pain " in life......so that it is not a wall..... It is a " DOORWAY " ........... That there is a place where, JUST FOR AN EXAMPLE, someone dies...... yes, that is indeed a " pain " .......but you evolve beyond a being that just sees a pain....... Sure, you miss that person, and there are sometimes when you wish they were around, and there will always be a " stain " on your heart, but you know in your heart you CAN talk to them anytime, you can GO INSIDE yourself and absolutely feel how it was to touch them, see them at their happiest moments, really continue to experience the BEST OF THAT PERSON.
