"thinking" entry...
So lately with all this fight poverty stuff, i've been thinking. I've read that everyone on this earth is living out their karma, and technically the world is perfect as it is because of this. And that trying to help those in need, such as those in Africa, really isn't such a good idea. So we should leave them be, because the dates of their death are set at the time of their birth. I don't know where I am going with this but, i felt like updating, so this is what came out. Obviously, it seems cruel to most to just turn our backs to those people, but if their date is set, then why worry about them you know? Ah, i don't know. It all has to do with a person's karma from past livetimes supposedly.
Love... True love, the love of family, of a spouse, of a pet is the love that is pure. But then there's the "love" that one thinks is love, but is truly an attachment. We all have attachments to everything. It's inevitable, we're human. The mind of a human naturally clings to things, as if it forgot it or left it then it would cease to exist. There is true love and attachment, how can one tell when it's either? When there is more suffering then joy, then maybe it's an attachment. True love would not cause such pain. The mind attaches itself to feelings, and again is afraid to let go. Whether you want to admit it or not, the mind of every human that is not enlightened loves to play victim, and gets a sick pleasure from suffering. I've noticed it in myself several times.. "Let me be angry today, i hardly am ever angry." It feels good to be angry sometimes. It makes me upset knowing that i let myself dive into that kind of pleasure, but i am trying to overcome that.
So lately I've realized that I have accepted that God exists. He has to. That's my opinion. NO, i am NOT going to get all religious now and dress all modest and start trying to convert people. I guess I am afraid to become a religious person, because in my mind i still think that religion is a wierd thing that only causes problems between people. I guess i am just going to have faith, because he moves in mysterious ways.... heh.
Coldplay is love.
