Do not make an initial post to start a new thread on this forum once you advance beyond the beginner level of posts. This forum is an experiment with the purpose of encouraging the participation of those who have so far only hung out in the background and looked over the bulletin board. It is intended to be a place where things are orderly for beginners without the free interaction of the main board. Post only with care for the recognition that we are welcoming a new member and not arguing with a fellow old timer. Your cooperation is appreciated.

Vexx1978,
I'd say what I felt was relief, and that would be in 1997 when I admitted I was a methamphetamine addict, and was then able to stop struggling against it to become a recovering meth addict. That is one HUGE example, if rather aged. :)
Love
Bette

Wow, that's incredible Bette. The girl I was dating was a meth user but She kicked the habit when she had a baby years back. She said she never smoked it so she wasn't as hooked as smokers from what I hear. We recently broke up but all the while I tried to relay some of the things I've learned to her, such as reading books and gaining knowledge to be a better person. She wasn't interested in My Big TOE because it's was My Big Book to her! LOL. Well, I have heard how hard it is to kick the habit and I really admire those who have gone through tough time to realize the beauty of your lives. That great!

Ted, thanks for the info! Really appreciate it! :)

Vexx1978: Our consciousness is more real than this physical world. This physical, holographic universe was created for our consciousness, a part of AUM, to gain experience and to evolve. We are here to raise the quality of our consciousness and lower our entropy through love so we may have more energy for work thus AUM and other will also evolve. Intent is the key and the ego has no room for growth. We will never know the ultimate truth beyond a point but we can take ignorance as a humbling experience because the part can never know the whole.

Just sat here reading this and munching a crisp organic apple. 'Crunch' goes the apple, 'zing' go my teeth, as the texture and coolness and sweetness of this 'oh so real- feeling' apple stimulates my body's senses in about a hundred different ways - the majority of which I'd struggle to describe on any meaningful level beyond the experience itself.

This holographic universe just floors me at times. As well as serving the purposes of evolution, it provides a deeply enjoyable and profound set of sensory experiences unique to this rule-set. Evolution never tasted so good :)
