epiphanies

achieving

what is for us does not pass us by; it waits for us to be ready.

assertion

god grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot chang, courage to change the things i can - and the ability to kick butt anyone that thinks different!

contentment

"it is often the most trivial moments which bring contentment." - tahn

freedom

freedom on a very personal level encompasses being free to think and feel as i will, and being free to believe as i feel is right. anything that denies me those three things is not freedom.

"it is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it" - aristotle

"go boldly. go boldly because you walk alone in the universe. in the end, everyone does." - tahn

life

lies are perpetuated by the scholars that believe them.

look with your eyes, and your mind, before you leap with your heart.

you are only you in one life. you weren't the same person the last time you were away from the sacred place of souls, and you will never be the same person in the future. so it's the life you are living which is more imporant than your overall span of lives.

"fears are like dancing shadows in an uncertain light." - tahn

"[one] is all the army you need. if one wasn't enough, there would be no messengers" - tach'e nea dou, messenger. finally murdered, and released from a false existence sunday 26 july, 2009.

"how we treat the vunerable, is how the universe judges" - mickel, 3rd universal age.

"we've all got light and dark inside of us. what matters is the power we choose to act on." - from harry potter, order of the phoenix

forgiveness does not make one 'divine'. temperance, wisdom, courage and compassion make one 'wise'.

ignorance comes from closing the mind not only to what is possible, but plausible.

put yourself above what you are and you will fall to the ways of hypocrisy and sham.

religion

you say you are a believer because you believe in god. you say i am a believer because i believe god does not exist. i say, believe what does not exist? you say "god". i say, there's no such thing. you say, "that's why you are a believer". i say, "believe what?"

spirituality

spirituality is an inner understanding - not knowing exactly - that is ultimately not influenced by any external source to your own heart, soul and being. something that makes sense to you no matter what perspectives challenge you to expand or deepen your understanding.

life is too random for there to be a 'purpose' as in function, but some do have a 'drive' buried deep inside their souls which emerges when some circumstance or circumstances trigger it.

if all you see is 'suffering' then that is all you will feel. look for what is better in yourself and see only that.

success

success is being happy with where you are in life and happy with where you know your life is going.

the funny side of life

to scientifically prove that god exists would negate the need for 'faith'. therefore anyone that sucessfully proves the existence of god will beburned at the stake and their soul condemned to hell (which hopefully they would have proven doesn't exist).

it's better to bite someone in the ass before they bite you on the nose.

9 out of 10 cats prefer whiskas, and 10 out of 10 don't care what they were in a past life. when asked sooty explained "my life is far too interesting." when challenged on the enormity of her ego she responded, "oh, cats are far to involved in life to worry about that. besides everyone knows you are the centre of your own world."

"i dream of a better tomorrow - when chickens can cross the road without their motives being questioned" - unknown
