(First of all, I've just woken up so if this makes no sense, that's why! :) )
In my opinion, it differs greatly from "I think, therefore I am" ~ which is an incredible personal phrase, able to describe so much more than simply the job I do, clothes I wear, my music taste/ability etc. It can...
My apologies, gnomon. I actually didn't mean to get on a soapbox in my last post (after re-reading, it does seem that way)
That was, of course, merely my opinion after celebrating Samhain as the New Year for a good while now...emotion most probably got involved!
That said, I do actually agree...
Yes, depression. At first, I found that the stigma that goes with having a MI difficult to deal with, but I've since made very good friends via support groups etc. I'm lucky to have met such kind, caring folks...I'm thankful for that, daily. It's often very difficult when I'm depressed but on...
Thanks, Buttons! *hugs* back. :)
Just another one I wrote a while back;
A Flight Upon the Wind
Watch, as I tease and play with the leaves,
As I watch you.
Hear my delicate whispers,
As I hear yours.
Carry my joy with my pain,
As I carry yours.
See the trees dance to my music,
As I dance to...
* Narrow or closed-mindedness * Heavy rain/sleet/snow when I've planned a long walk *
* People who can only manage to think/talk about themselves * Being woken up by other people (I am SO cranky in the mornings!) * :sleep:
There's probably more, but that's all I can think of right now. :)
I believe it was Voltaire who said,
"If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him".
I agree, in part. Even without religion, death would have still existed. After all, death is a part of life ~ it cannot be avoided or escaped by anybody. Humans have always strived for power and/or...
So sorry to hear about your kitty, CDRaider. I've always found losing a pet to be just as hard as losing a family member ~ they become very much a part of the family over time. I hope you can find the comfort in knowing that she's loved and has been well looked after. :hug: to you and kitty.
In the Celtic world, the earliest record of the Samhain festival comes from the Coligny Calendar (a Celtic lunar calendar which was inscribed on bronze tablets. Fragments of these tablets were found in Eastern France, November 1897). In the Gregorian calendar of today, Samhain falls on...
It is my opinion, that if/when a person needs to be persuaded into doing something, they'll no doubt be unhappy with the outcome of the situation at some point or another.
Like others have said, perhaps this is a question best discussed with family...or better yet, your wife.
That said...
I agree, she certainly is lovely! ,:flower:
Many congratulations, and thank you for sharing such adorable pictures with us.
(Do you think they make that pink outfit in adult sizes?? I wouldn't mind getting my hands on one if they do....it looks really comfortable! :D )
Arrgh...It's difficult to pick just ten!
1) The Rolling Stones ~ Start Me Up.
2) Iron Maiden ~ Run to the Hills.
3) Guano Apes ~ Lords of the Boards.
4) Ladysmith Black Mambazo ~ Isimanga Salomhlaba.
5) Bob Marley ~ Satisfy My Soul.
6) Paradise Lost ~ Shadowkings.
7) Metallica ~ Nothing Else...
I'd call them human. In terms of good/bad, humans are capable of both.
As such, and like Gentoo said, this means that we are each responsible for our own actions and we must bear the relative consequences.
I like to think that we are guided by individual choice, rather than forces of good or...
Hi, Feathers in Hair (that, too, is a lovely name!)
Awen has been defined as many things; the energy of divine and creative/poetic/artistic inspiration; flow of spirit; the essence of life in motion.
Broken down literally, Awen is a feminine noun combined of two words; "aw" meaning "a...
