But, to each their own.
You are in your comfort zone, far be it from me to pull you out unwillingly or unwanted.
No matter, I respect your opinion.
Even if I do not agree.
You want me to be honest right. One of these things is not like the others..... The first one is the generally accepted idea here. Except it's sorta runs borderline ....cheesy. It runs to fast you have to read it quick. The 2nd & 3rd ones are supposed to inspire but I don't think it accomplishes that very well. Yes it is very warm fuzzy feel good stuff.....I don't feel really warm and fuzzy right now so sorry. The 4th is probably the one to provoke those that disagree with the whole concept. My opinion - I do agree with 1 - not really 2 & 3 (can't be happy all the time) - and 4 is something I was reading up on the last 2 months but haven't attempted. So I do like that one. So what was the discussion supposed to be again? - I think I messed that all up......now I have to sit through it all again.

How can you not agree? Would you tell a zebra that it has infinite potential? A monkey? They are animals. WE are animals. There's NO difference.
If we had all this potential then we would be able to close our eyes real tight and repeat the words,
"Fukishima radiation go away today," and it would be done! People need to stop living in these useless fantasies and focus on things (logical things) that could actually change the world for the better.

I do understand what you are saying, but I also understand that a Zebra does not care what it is as much as where it is. Human beings have a different awareness of the universe than a Zebra. It is what separates (not quite the right word, we are one with the animals but on a higher awareness) us from the animal kingdom. We are AWARE of more than just 50 feet around us and what wants to eat us for dinner
Are you in a position where you can change Fukashima? Me neither.But I can change how I see it so that I don't go to bed every night worrying about it. Worry only creates anxiety. Especially when it is something you do not have the power to effect. I think you put to much into what I am trying to say. I'm not and never have suggested we are better than anything else on this planet. We are AWARE of what we are though, which makes us top of the food chain, and much more able to take a pro active approach to living. It allows us to take charge of our lives instead of being unknowing unrealized beings. What you see as magic, I see as natural flow. No, no one can just blink and fix the world, but we can blink and fix ourselves if we are broken.
