I know the earth is round and suspended in space, and that gravity adheres me to it.
I don't know if I am able to supersede gravity without the help of any device besides my own body.

I know I am a mammal and have the ability to grow human life within my womb.
I don't know if I am a creation of some reptilian race from another planet in the solar system, with or without gravity.

I know there are limitations to my physical existence.
I don't know if there is a point either through meditation or some other means at which I could alter the ability of my physical self.

I know I am capable of feeling and spreading love.
I don't know if I receive my ability to feel and spread love from a higher being who created me with the ability to do so.

At the end of the day we all have our musings about what is and what isn't, and this is a tie that binds those of us that humor these parts of our minds. I am grateful to be a part of a community where pondering is accepted as the norm. Where the everyday discussions of sports and Hollywood stars are not what consumes us. I am grateful for the opportunity to challenge my mind in new ways, enhance my critical thinking skills and learn new and exciting ways to spend my mental time while cooking dinner each night.


There will always be those who are intellectually superior and those who fall on the other end of that spectrum. There will always be those who spend their time trying to find ways to criticize those who are inferior to feed their ego, and those who criticize the superior for essentially the same reason. But at the end of the day, our thinking caps are all spun by the same thread. Some may be finer quality thread than others, but they are all made of thread none the less. And for that I am grateful. If we truly do only get one shot at this life, I would like to spend mine celebrating our likenesses rather than our differences. If we do get another go round, some of us may very well come back as rocks so it might not much matter.

Hope this find you all well,
recycled

Superbly stated. Not too sure about the quote - I'll have to think about it. Thanks!

i enjoyed reading your words except for one thing you kept repeating, the word grateful i hate that word sorry

grateful is a certainty that you are not, grateful is meaning being from receiving and is meaning directly givers outside of yourself

it is impossible,

the point is that when you appreciate what you see objectively living then the answer as a living yourself is objectively translating your considerations
grateful is always meaning not existing but because created

but if you are created why would you be grateful to exist, it is nonsense to me, if we dont exist geniunly then existence would be hell for us if we are aware of it

how can you appreciate something not related with you in any point of your truth
and if it is related to your truth then it is the random rights of you

now the point is the fears that make us thank too much invisible forces just to save some ideas of protections supports
in that condition yes i can understand that word, we are forced to please unknwon egos just to maintain our free sanity as existing awareness

but repeating it no

sorry for my useless words here, but i like to think useless speech as this, like the fact that you would always be you and me me, and there is no problem with that, i like this to be a kind of certainty too to touch as real
