    Goal in Life: Get chill job, grow a beard, chill all day

    Yeah, I used to work at a medical dispensary. They eventually got shut down by the county, just like all the others in my area. It's technically legal, but local cops don't hesitate to arrest for it anyway.

    Goal in Life: Get chill job, grow a beard, chill all day

    I thought I was getting into the art field in order to avoid stress. hahaha yeah right! I've got he most stressful job that exists besides working in the ER. Deadlines are crazy tight, and if you miss one, you're fired. You've gotta be on your toes and put in your all everyday all day. However...

    Calling all poets and creative personalities!

    MissQuote Your poetry is fascinating, you describe such esoteric feelings in an understandable way with an eccentric flair. I do like Tendrils of Analysis, I read the line "as a cast shadow reflecting Prolific imperfections" several times to take in all of its meaning. You have beautifully and...

    A curious thought...

    Well, let's find a baby and try it :D Time for some science!! I think this is an interesting idea. The equilibrium would likely adapt to the child's perception of what "normal" balance is. I don't know that the sensation of being upside down would completely cease, but the child probably...

    Science is Clueless About Space-Time

    Well the way I see it there is this thing called a universe. It's expanding a a very rapid rate. The distance between things is what we humans like to call "space". As it expands, things change, the changing of things in increments is what we call "time". Therefore you have space-time, two...

    Calling all poets and creative personalities!

    I'm glad you like it, I wrote The Mind of Chaos as a synopsis of how I perceive the universe. Poetry is the form of writing that comes most naturally to me, so that's how I express my thoughts a lot of the time. I'd be glad to share more poetry with you. I would like to hear some of your views...

    I just do it because I'm awesome at it. I like being impressive and outdoing what my partner can do. I tend to be rather competitive when it comes to just about everything.

    Would You Raise a Clone of Yourself?

    While cloning myself would be better than taking the risk of producing some deadbeat from random genetics, I would prefer not to do either. One, I have no interest in raising children. Two, I would never curse a clone with my genetics. I was so ill most of my childhood, I missed out on...

    The Meaning of Life is "To Love."

    You are just a collection of single cells, and apparently you can love. Who knows how far back the ability to "feel" goes. Single cell organisms communicate with each other chemically, and what are neurotransmitters? Chemicals. What is the physical aspect of love? An electrochemical phenomenon...

    Transcendental Meditition

    For me, meditation is going through the 10 levels of thought in my mind and silencing each level. I then experience the world without any preconception or thought and so am completely in the moment of "what is".

    The Meaning of Life is "To Love."

    How can you possibly know for sure that reptiles or unicellular organisms don't love? That's like saying you know for sure that you do or do not have a soul. We just don't know what other species of animals feel or how they perceive the world. You could argue that the neurotransmitters or...

    I agree with what you're saying here. From what I know of myself and others, people usually have at least a couple different lifestyles that they think would be ideal.

    The Meaning of Life is "To Love."

    Hmm, very interesting analysis you've done here. I agree with you that one of the most important components of the purpose of human life is to love. However, I would add that "to learn" should be part of it as well. If we love and learn, then we grow and help others to grow and forward the...

    One thing that the Christian religion teaches that I do practice is repentance. If I do something that hurts myself or another person (including animals), I repent.

    I'm an INFJ (I think)

    From what I've seen of your posts on here, you struck me as being a very strongly opinionated individual.

    I'm an INFJ (I think)

    I find that I care both for humanity and for individuals. Perhaps it's because of my spirituality, I find that I truly love every person sincerely because I understand how fundamentally connected we all are. I also lose faith in humanity sometimes, but don't tend to target individuals. Sometimes...

    Effects of being an INTP only child.

    1. I was an INTP only child. I learned how to entertain myself :D 2. I would say I'm a 1 maybe. I connect with people pretty easily when I want to, but it's never superficial. 3.

    As far as being a programmer goes, it usually gets you stable work with decent pay. However, if you have any creative tendencies whatsoever, straight programming probably isn't the best way to go. My ENTJ boyfriend is a programmer, or as he puts it a "software engineer". He got his degree in...

    What's a Genius and Do You Consider Yourself One?

    So If Einstein Was Wrong...
