[QUOTE="Pathfinder, post: 212991, member: 21250"] [SIZE=16px][/SIZE] Why? - because you have progressed far beyond the average human spiritually. For most are ignorant and too busy enjoying their attachment to worldly pleasures to feel this way. A few feel this way sometimes but do not let the feeling linger beyond a fleeting and fleecing thought due to fear of depression. So they find new earthly pursuits to keep themselves 'safe and sane'. A few seek escape by substituting reality. It could be in endless ways but the most common ways soon leads to addiction of the medium. A few face up to seek the answers and still manage to hold onto sanity. You fit here. I love the DSBM lyrics that your words read like to me. (Doom has its endless genres - not mainstream or popular I agree). Look at it this way. As long as it's 'sometimes' it is not a concern. Beyond that or if frequent, it is cause for alarm. Imagine this - we are two groups of children in a forest, playing - one group has a map of the forest, one group does not. Which group has more fun. I think the latter. If meaning to our life was defined to us would it be better?. Or, like the children without a map, who are free to explore every nook and corner by default, bump into dead ends, backtracking etc ?? Free to give life our own meaning, is that not much more romantic?? Look at me - I am a dented old man but I did get these few dents repaired too. That dent, oh, I was young and reckless once but now I am sedate and serene. All I want now is to find a way to get lost - lost in you. It's easy because you are everywhere. In the waterfall, in the rain, in the moonlight... Ask me, listen to me, believe me - because I have no reason to lie. I gain nothing by it like I lose nothing. You inspire me and a lot of others by your insightful posts. Is that not a useful, inspiring thing you do??. I am sure you shower your magical aura on a lot of blessed folks in your life and they will vouch for it. How do I know - that is classified info, lol. Which direction? - Is that not freedom?? - you can pick any mountain to climb or valley to explore. Why does everything have to make sense?? The flesh too is recycled, not wasted. Nothing in the Akaal's domain is wasted. Look at the suffix he lovingly added to your name. You are special. You were born to make God happy. Because God loves the echo of your laughter. God loves the mystic look in your eyes when you stand and admire the beauty that God created. God loves the way you laugh out loud as you dance in the rain. God loves the way you hug somebody to make them feel loved. God loves the way you play with the little puppy whom God is deeply concerned about.
