now you're gone and never come back
who will be there to watch me crack?

is sober life the right route?
well i guess so cause
you're giving me a drought

:)
 
My chiiilllld....

I have taken these drugs from you so that you may learn. I want you to be better. Suffering just happens because you're not there yet.

Its hard to see it when you're in it, but sometimes suffering betters us. It shrinks the ego and allows that other thing to grow. I don't have a label for that other thing, calling it spirit doesn't do it justice but I suppose its a decent word for it.
 
sorry for asking but what do you mean with this thread?
you stopped mxe and other drugs?
what happened?
 
In response to Foreigner: I have no choice in the matter, so it's not optional, but all inevitable.

As for the OP, as you asked I'll answer! Only once I've found some alcohol....

Nasty diety + Free-will = you accumulated too much bad karma at best or fuck you.
Nasty diety + Determinism = Haha fuck you.
Nice diety + Free-will = it's only a dream.
Nice diety + Determinism = as above.
No diety is as good as nasty diety since existence is a crock of shit and waste of time.

Determinism is terrible if the world is real because it's mostly intolerable.
Best of all possible worlds would have it being equivalent to a film.

MXE can suck a dick.

The phrase "rest not upon your own understanding" isn't just the line of some con man trying to sell you snake oil. Conclusions are dangerous things, believing too strongly in your own could be a recipe for madness. The overtaxed brain making disfigured love children with the dual spectres of inexperience and unprocessed emotion.

Or you could be entirely right about the way the world should be.
 
^ i can't speak fro him but i think foreigner's point was that there is shit that happens to us and how we choose to deal with it. you have little control over the former. you have a lot of control over the latter.
Why does God love me to suffer so much?
maybe there's no god?

alasdair
 
There is no god. Things happen because of the way the material world shapes our lives. Some things are within our control but for the most part it's as simple as shit happens there is no reason.
 
imagine, for a second, that you are god. you are the totality of everything at once. could you imagine how badly it would suck to be the only thing that exists, just kind of existing in a timeless void, totally alone. now that is suffering.

if god exists (which i don't believe in the traditional sense), then i feel sorry for him/it/watever. he had to create the universe just to make some shit happen, and maybe forget for a minute that he's the only damn thing here.

the very essence of existence itself is loneliness and suffering.
 
Interesting perspective. I think suffering and pain don't necessarily equate each other, but I think most people suffer through things and it makes them stronger, as if there is a reason for everything. One that we may never know.

Suffering is a state of mind whereas pain is a bodily response.

i.e. someone who is in pain but keeps a positive outlook vs. someone in pain who turns into "poor me"

I'm not saying it's easy but it's still a choice. Pain can be disabling but it doesn't have to damage your spirit.
 
God doesn't judge or force anything upon you. It's you or your higher self that makes you to suffer so much, usually for good reason. Like taking away your access to drugs or leading you out of a life of drug addiction which can sabotage your life and get in the way of you achieving things, not to mention make you suffer so much.
 
A good priest would sit you down and ask:

"Why do you like to suffer"

Then:

"What can you atone for to ease your suffering?"

That is to ask, what is it in your life that keeps you enjoying suffering and how can it be cut from the diet. :)
 
God's a dick, that's why - Don't take it personally he's just like that.

Have you tried meditation? Studies show that meditating for only 10 minutes a day for 8 weeks will significantly improve your emotional and psychological well being.

Just relax, empty your head of thoughts and distractions and just focus on the way air feels on your nostrils as you breathe. It's important you focus on the feeling and not let your thoughts rabbit on: "OK - feels ok, breathe in, breathe out, kinda cold, nose hair tickles a bit" Nein! The feeling, not the thoughts..

Apart from being good for you, It'll probably help you with your creativity problem without the need for drugs.. dunno if it'd be as good.. ooh ooh ooh and practise lucid dreaming.. a decent lucid dream is a lot more interesting than any drug.
