who can tell me one thing about life that will exceed the life they already lived?
*what wisdoms did one gain in life?
we are all living life right now,
a life that has seemed like, so far, an eternity,
yet, still so far from complete.
every man has experienced what they've experienced in life,
and nothing one man knows is not but his own wisdom,
his own gathered knowledges and beliefs.****
it goes to show how darn foolish many of us are,
or rather,, how foolish the human race is,
when there is no peace in the world,
we are stuck at wisdoms pertaining TO peace,
or about life in a box.
how to be happy in a life that all in all has us enslaved,
hearing about war everyday is our hell,
and it seems like too, our foolishness is not making a heaven here on earth,
aside from the leaders of the nations of this earth,
we the people should create heaven here on earth.
we are living life, and will continue to,
i wish for everyone to heal that something deep inside us that has been absolutely ravished by the darkness in the world.
this darkness has become part of us,
only because we are exposed to it everyday.
in our life, we can take into our hands the choice and power to be happy and to love one another,
this right now is as far as we can do.

Re: endless battle
07/21this really struck a chord with me:
i wish for everyone to heal that something deep inside us that has been absolutely ravished by the darkness in the world.
It's really important to decontaminate and to figure out how to not let it contaminate you any further. IMO. -

Rien n'est précaire comme vivre
Rien comme être n'est passager
C'est un peu fondre comme le givre
Et pour le vent être léger
J'arrive où je suis étranger

Re: endless battle
07/23I won't put up the one of the country I reside in, it's about a Dutch king of German blood who pays tribute to the king of Spain. Perverted? How so... they have a Harry Potter look-a-like for minister president here.

Re: endless battle
07/23"things in themselves"
The question "was die Dinge in ihrer Dingheit bedingt"
Die Frage nach dem Ding, die Heidegger im Titel des vorliegenden Buches und im ersten Teil seiner Vorlesung stellt und vorstellt, fragt nicht nach der Beschaffenheit eines bestimmten Dinges wie z. B. der Zoologe sich um die Beschaffenheit eines bestimmten Tieres kümmert, sondern nach der Beschaffenheit eines bestimmten Dinges als Ding. Gemeint ist also die Frage nach dem Dinghaften der Dinge und damit auch nach dem, was die Dinge in ihrer Dinghaftigkeit bedingt. Dieses die Dinge Bedingende muss selbst un-bedingt sein, also die Dinge in ihrem Sein beeinflussen und selbst durch nichts beeinflusst sein. Der Zusammenhang mit der “Kritik der reinen Vernunft” besteht in der Antwort auf die Dingfrage: Das die Dinge Bedingende, was den Dingen ihre Dingheit verleiht, sind die Grundsätze der reinen Vernunft, die Kant in seinem Hauptwerk vorstellt. Die “Kritik der reinen Vernunft” antwortet also auf die Dingfrage, weswegen Heidegger sie zum Hauptbestandteil seiner Vorlesung macht. Um die Frage nach dem Ding anhand der “Kritik der reinen Vernunft” zu beantworten, legt Heidegger das zweite Hauptstück der transzendentalen Analytik aus, das “System aller Grundsätze des reinen Verstandes”.

07/23Esse est percipi: (George Berkeley)
There was a young man who said "God
Must find it exceedingly odd
To think that the tree
Should continue to be
When there's no one about in the quad."
"Dear Sir: Your astonishment's odd;
I am always about in the quad.
And that's why the tree
Will continue to be
Since observed by, Yours faithfully, God." -

Re: endless battle
07/23As was written above that started off this topic:
"this darkness has become part of us,
only because we are exposed to it everyday. "
They did. In an attempt to rebel against it. -

Why do people believe all that scrap. Because they are to proud to simply admit they dunno nothing? -

Hard-Won Lessons
07/24In the course of a long, often stressful life, there are certain thngs I have come to realize that I would like to share with you.
The Ten Condiments
1. It is a serious mistake to start *believing* your own bullshit.
2. It can result in great and wonderful accomplishments to start trying to *live up to* your own bullshit.
3. I do not exist; I am a figment of my own imagination.
4.
