July 6, 201015 yr i know that no matter how hard things get, how sad i feel, or horrible things may seem; it could be worse
July 6, 201015 yr true, but things affect people in different ways and people have different breaking points so technically it's all relative. things could indeed be worse but that doesn't mean you wouldn't act to a ridiculous extreme in less serious circumstances.
July 6, 201015 yr Author i have acted to a ridiculous extreme in such a trivial circumstance. i find that sad. b/c nothing matters except life & the love you make
July 6, 201015 yr b/c they make you who you are but why do you matter or me or anyone? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihilism
July 6, 201015 yr Author do you really believe that? i'm sure you matter to someone & i know i matter to ppl
July 6, 201015 yr do you really believe that? i'm sure you matter to someone & i know i matter to ppl to an extent, but at the end of the day it doesn't really matter. the people in question are simply made up of matter themselves and they will die and that will be that. if my mother was killed it would be the worst thing imaginable however if i died that would be that and nothing will have mattered because it will all have gone. it will just be another thing that will have happened. it all revolves around death and is there anything other than love that is worth living for truly? and love dies with you. i'm pretty tired, may head to bed
July 6, 201015 yr Author i guess i sort of agree w/ you. just out of curiosity, do you believe in an afterlife? i do, btw, & i believe our whole existence is to please God. and how, you may ask, do you please God. well, by being a good person, helping others, & acknowledging His will. this life is so trivial & short, but the after life is forever.

July 6, 201015 yr Author so why do you even get out of bed? what's the point? why should there even be a revolution? this is all saying that even the simplest pleasures of life, spending time w/ a loved one, listening to a beautiful song, breathing in the crisp, summer night air, are just pointless & should be avoided since they have no purpose. is that really the life one would want to live?

July 6, 201015 yr i guess that's just the definition of faith; believing in something 100% w/o 100% proof that it exists. as you said love dies, but do you believe in true love? i believe in the concept of love, which are certain things being released in my brain, and i aim towards feeling it as much as possibe as it is the greatest force i have ever felt within me. faith is one of the most disgusting things mankind has come up against. it has held him back so so much and we would be better off without it. the enlightenment happened for a reason, yet still people take the easy route out and believe in the invisible man who'll look after them because they are too scared to admit they really don't know. it's all about ideals, and people like an ideology. uncertainty is frowned upon by the masses. they like to think they have the answer.
July 6, 201015 yr Author but God is not human. He is completely supernatural & cannot be compared to man in any way, shape, or form. you have to have faith in some things, be it people, emotions, God, or the decisions we make. also, having faith doesn't necessarily mean you don't know how to solve your own problems. God helps those who help themselves
July 6, 201015 yr which brings us back to coldplay, "nothing matters, EXCEPT LIFE & THE LOVE YOU MAKE." life does matter, the interactions we make w/ others do matter. i would assume that by not concerning yourself w/ an afterlife you would appreciate the earth more so, since you only have such a limited time alive on it life matters when you are living it but there will come a time when you aren't doing, and then it won't matter. people get too caught up in life, the social stigmas that stop them doing what they want. life in itself has become something programmed into us. we have endless possibilities yet are bound by ties forced upon us on arrival. restrictions are apparent as soon as we are out the womb. we become a citizen (a citizen of what we have no choice in - the world isn't land it is territory - and you are born in territory where rules are implemented on you from day one, even though you have no choice or care in the matter). we are told what to do (generally speaking). it is a tragedy to an extent, but at the end of the days we seek the things that make us happy (or at least we should do).

God helps those who help themselves who told you this? there is no proof of god there is no proof of no god why is he completely supernatural? why do you need faith? how does god help those who help themselves and why do they need helping if they have already helped themselves? that sounds like people giving credit to god when they have achieved something themselves. people don't give themselves enough credit. a god makes things easier to explain things
