    the problem is, for every correct action, there is at least one correct response. After a few episodes, the variations become myriad and muddled. Therefore I am giving up on figuring out the complexities, and I am living in the moment as they say. 🙂

    Carpe diem.

    But what if you're living in the present and everything falls apart around you? Are you still
    going to be at peace? What if living in the past or future will make you at peace because
    the present suck? Ah, yes, tzu may have been a great thinker, but he obviously didn't think
    that one through.

    Just saying.

    The truth.

    On a separate note, I never got the concept of a self-help book. How's it going to help itself?

    I'm sure you can. It's just that my thoughts and theories were ok in my head, but when I saw them in writing, I knew it wasn't quite what I meant.

    Noted, I'll post more of that garbage in the future. 🙂


    My OP is sort of a glimpse into my mind. Beware and be afraid. 😞
