Reply:This is not going to be a one word answer.
At every point in my life , what I thought was a deep, dark secret.I found out tat a little later that my thinking and fear was wrong and there are many many with similar experiences. It nolonger remained a deep, dark secret and my fears were gone.
The only thing that I consider to be a secret is my inadequecy.Others seem to think that I am fine and I donot have the courage to say that I am not worth that evaluation.

What's a soul mate. Do we all have the same souls, is it universal or are they shaded by personalities?
Soulmate (or soul mate) is a term sometimes used to designate someone with whom one has a feeling of deep and natural affinity, friendship, love, intimacy, sexuality, spirituality and/or compatibility. A related concept is that of the twin flame or twin soul – which is thought to be the ultimate soulmate, the one and only other half of one%26#039;s soul, for which all souls are driven to find and join.
What%26#039;s a soul mate. Do we all have the same souls, is it universal or are they shaded by personalities?
Twin soul or in other words %26quot;true love%26quot;.
Legends said, humans originally were combined of four arms, four legs, and a single head made of two faces, but Zeus feared their power and split them all in half, condemning them to spending their lives searching for the other half to complete them.

here is an interesting quote...
%26quot;people think your soul mate is your perfect fit, and thats what everyone wants, but, a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that%26#039;s holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most important person you%26#039;ll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever..? Nah, too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yoursefl to you, and then they leave. And thank God for it.%26quot; - Elizabeth Gilbert
____________________________
I think the word %26quot;soul mate%26quot; can mean so many different things. To me, its like a connection. Any connection where you feel it so deep, you feel like your soul has the hardest grip on the other person%26#039;s soul. A connection is a connection...good or bad. Sometimes we have a strong deeeep connection with someone, but It%26#039;s unhealthy. Thats what that quote means to me. Not that i%26#039;ll never be able to live with me soul mate forever...just reasurance that people come and go and it%26#039;s ok b/c thats what was suppose to happen.
Reply:I think it is just a fancy. %26quot;soul%26quot; is itself an unknown; a hypothesis, in some respects unnecessary. Talking of %26#039;soul mates%26#039; is just a way of saying that two persons are very close.

A soul mate is an answer to an unspoken question.
Same souls? Universal?----- Is every fingerprint alike?
Is every snowflake the same?
Reply:While marriage is difficult, and discordant and frustrated marriages are common, yet real, lasting happiness is possible, and marriage can be more an exultant ecstasy than the human mind can conceive. This is within the reach of every couple, every person. “Soul mates” are fiction and an illusion; and while every young man and young woman will seek with all diligence and prayerfulness to find a mate with whom life can be most compatible and beautiful, yet it is certain that almost any good man and any good woman can have happiness and a successful marriage if both are willing to pay the price.
There is a never-failing formula which will guarantee to every couple a happy and eternal marriage; but like all formulas, the principal ingredients must not be left out, reduced, or limited. The selection before courting and then the continued courting after the marriage process are equally important, but not more important than the marriage itself, the success of which depends upon the two individuals—not upon one, but upon two.
Reply:I think a soul mate is someone who just gets you.....it%26#039;s as though when you met you%26#039;ve known each other forever.
A soul mate does not have to be the opposite gender.....it can be a same-sex soul mate.....a friend.
Reply:One aspect of the soul is awareness. Awareness is universal. There can be no two ways of experiencing awareness. It is wordless and without opinion and is not subjective.
It is when we observe via the shades of ego or personality that our view of things becomes blurred.
Ram Dass said that people are like the fingers of God and each finger is a representative of God%26#039;s awareness. God is aware of everything via all sentient beings that possess awareness. It is we who imagine we are separate and the mind creates an image of personality that creates the illusion of separateness.
Reply:its what is known as true love,when both parts love each other with all there heart,and soul..Two people with caring,loving,understanding,always there for the other in all things,weather in bad time or good,abiding truly by the vows you take in marriage,upholding them to the end,the gift of giving true love to another as they give back the same to you..
Reply:Soul is how we describe the intelligence of a rational being. The soul is able to deduce beyond what we experience naturally, so it is supernatural or spiritual.
Soul-mate describes the compatible union of one person%26#039;s emotions and reason with another person.

What are humanity's problems today? Can you enumerate?
People, many people are careless about their world, they think of nothing but their own circle of life, their house, their family, their city, but not the rest of the world. Million are suffering, millions have lost their homes, thousands are in war. Are the rest of the human race being careless of these. Write your opinions. Are you one of them?
What are humanity%26#039;s problems today? Can you enumerate?
Haves - selfishness and greed
Have nots - food and shelter
Just those two answers should be simple for even a less than bright individual to figure out.
What are humanity%26#039;s problems today? Can you enumerate?
Humanities problems today are the same as the problems from the beginning of history. Nothing will ever change that.
Reply:We don%26#039;t take care of each other.....we close our eyes or blame the people who are having the problems.
Unless you walk in someones shoes you have no idea what their life is like.
It%26#039;s easy to caste blame and criticize.....but until we become each others brothers humanity will just sink lower and lower.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think it is selfish to worry about your own well being. It is important to remember to nourish yourself and keep healthy. However, if you have 6 cars and a friend needs to borrow one, but you refuse for no good reason...that is selfish.
I think it is important to help if you have the means to help. If you don%26#039;t, obviously you can%26#039;t.
Reply:The problem of humanity is too many to enumerate and too complex to discuss but I%26#039;d say the REAL problem is the humanity itself. All we can do to at least make this world a better place is do our part in preserving it and show people that we care. That at least, lessens the problem of humanity which in itself is the real problem anyway.
here%26#039;s a song lyrics for you... (how appropriate!)
spoken:
Think about the generations and to say we want to make it a better
world for our children and our children%26#039;s children. So that they know
it%26#039;s a better world for them; and think if they can make it a better
place.
There%26#039;s a place in your heart , And I know that it is love
And this place could be much, Brighter than tomorrow.
And if you really try, You%26#039;ll find there%26#039;s no need to cry
In this place you%26#039;ll feel, There%26#039;s no hurt or sorrow.
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space, make a better place.
Heal the world, Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for You and for me.
If you want to know why, There%26#039;s a love that cannot lie
Love is strong, It only cares for joyful giving.
If we try we shall see, In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love%26#039;s enough for us growing
Make a better world, make a better world.
And the dream we would conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth, crucify it%26#039;s soul
Though it%26#039;s plain to see, this world is heavenly
Be God%26#039;s glow.
We could fly so high, Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel, You are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear, Together we%26#039;ll cry happy tears
See the nations turn, Their swords into plowshares
We could really get there, If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space to make a better place.
There are people dying if you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me.

Reply:Well, in my opinion,one of the best answers ever given to this question is to be found in George Garlin`s Paradox.
%26quot;The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more,but have less; we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees
but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little,drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and
hate too often.
We%26#039;ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We%26#039;ve added years to life not life to years. We%26#039;ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space.
We%26#039;ve done larger things, but not better things. We%26#039;ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We%26#039;ve conquered the atom, but not our prejudice.
We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less.
We%26#039;ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes.
These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.

If all of nature does not discriminate between life and death e.g. morals, why do we since we are nature or?
part of it. Is nature moral? or is it simply a tool for human survival and order?
If all of nature does not discriminate between life and death e.g. morals, why do we since we are nature or?
Would morality matter if there was only one person on earth? Morality exists as a way to deal with other people. It is a guide for behavior between individuals. If the **** hit the fan would you still live by your moral code or would you be forced to change it? for example if you had to choose between killing someone so your family could survive or not kill someone and have your family die, would you kill them or would you die along with your family. Morality is illusion.
Calling nature moral is a huge anthropromorphism, but I understand what you are getting at. You might want to look into some nietzsche - the geneology of morals. Nature isn%26#039;t moral from it%26#039;s own standpoint but there is some sort of cosmological order to it. You should be aware of the distinction between nature and domesticated humanity. We are seperate from nature to an extent. We are not purely wild or purely domestiated. I suppose you could compare a human to a dog. Prior to morality we were something comparable to an untrained wild dog, after morality has hit us it has turned us into a house dog that listens to commands, and we make sure not to pee on the carpet but some people occasionally do.

Prior to morality we were something comparable to an untrained wild dog, after morality has hit us it has turned us into a house dog that listens to commands, and we make sure not to pee on the carpet but some people occasionally do.
Something I've come up with about life. Give me your opinion =)?
Well I am only 14, and what I am about to say comes completely from me. I have been in deep thought about this for the past week and I have come up with this:
Well, atoms make up everything. Atoms, though, are 99.99% empty space. So basically, everything is nothing, at least thats what it seems. But, we can only see about 10% of things based on light spectrum. So, basically our eyes and other sense are obsurdities. Everything we have ever seen or smelled, etc, is totally false and inaccurate. Basically, we all live our lives based on these false observations and absolute obsurdities. Since we cannot see more then 10% of everything, how can we come up with such things as measurement? The fact that we have measurements of length and time, etc, is almost insane, at least that is what I believe.
Thats basically it, for now =)

Well you have lots to learn about life when you get up to my age you then not only have seen what life is all about but have experienced what life is all about

Don%26#039;t try passing through a brick wall at a full run! The molecules that are made from atoms have bonds between them that creates solids, liquids and gases.
Reply:Very intriguing :D
I have also pondered over something similar to that. I mean - how can people measure the Sun when being so close to it can frazzle you?
I%26#039;d ask a Science teacher if I were you. Preferably one that is skilled in the area of Physics.
Reply:You%26#039;ll get some patronising responses here because you started saying %26#039;I%26#039;m only 14%26#039;, but your line of thought is entirely coherent.
An example of this thought is the idea that if the universe halved/doubled in size overnight, we couldn%26#039;t notice the difference - a 30cm ruler might now be 60cm from yesterday%26#039;s point of view, so to speak.
If you want to follow up what you%26#039;re thinking about, you could read this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_...
and the wikipedia page called Idealism looks okay too.
I would add that the notion of life founded on absolute absurdities is to be welcomed.
Reply:Actually, atoms are not made of 99.9% space. Scientists have discovered that atoms are filled with different parts, not just protons, neutrons and electrons.
If we smell something, we smell it. It exists because it exists to us. If we say a day is 24 hours long, it is 24 hours because we created time. We fit the passing of the earth around the globe into our measurements. It isn%26#039;t false or inaccurate. If we follow it, it is accurate.
You are over complicating a very simple issue. Just enjoy life, stop calling the sight and smell of a rose fake, just because the atoms that makes it only fill out %26#039;%26#039;1% of space%26#039;%26#039;. It wouldn%26#039;t exist if it was 100% emtpy space, but it isn%26#039;t.
Reply:completely from you huh? Your age shows. However I do appreciate your point of view. I agree that we cannot trust our own senses...

everything it%26#039;s affected by entropy, even
the standard you use to measure things;
recently i%26#039;ve heard that the
etalon for meter, which they have
somewhere in Paris, France, it%26#039;s getting

btw, how do we know the lenght
of a day was the same 1000 y ago ?
i%26#039;m talking measurement;
if the planet was spinning faster then
that today, that
means the days were shorter and
the measure unit called %26#039;hour%26#039; was also
shorter
Reply:Keep thinking those kinds of thoughts. Let me help you along.
The difference between Newton%26#039;s particles and sensed qualities is found in our experience of them. The immediate experience of colors, odors, and sounds are just that, immediate experience of color, odor, and sound, however the wavelength of blue light is theoretically designated and indirectly verified. Your skepticism arises from the overwhelming difference between these two types of experience: the theoretically postulated, hypothetically designated component of experience and the immediately sensed determinate portion of experience, ---which is part of our very being. The immediately sensed component is relative to each individual while the theoretic component is public, exists within our understanding, and therefore is accessible to everybody, everywhere.
We experience emotional life, embodied life, and psychological life--in their aesthetic immediacy, within which determinate differentiations come and go. In this way, change, and understanding change, is pervasive. Theories follow from questions, and correct theories follow from confirmation of experimental results. In other words, the scientific method is one way to expand our horizons, but that method works best when dealing with physical phenomena. The scientific method is less effective when it comes to expanding our psychological and emotional horizons and these horizons are immediately sensed.
Here’s how F. S. C. Northrop describes the relationship of a fully known thing: “Both components are equally real and primary, and hence good, the one being the complement of the other… (He states) “To be any complete thing is to be not merely an immediately experienced, aesthetically and emotionally felt thing, but also to be what hypothetically conceived and experimentally verified theory designates.” (The Meeting Of East And West, p. 450)
I will give Arthur Eddington the last words here. He was possibly the first person to fully comprehend Einstein’s relativity theory. He also headed up the famous expedition that photographed the solar eclipse which offered proof of relativity theory.
Eddington believed that if you want to fill a vessel you must first make it hollow (the emptiness that vexes). He also said, “our present conception of the physical world is hollow enough to hold almost anything,” hollow enough to hold “that which asks the question,” hollow enough to hold “the scheme of symbols connected by mathematical equations that describes the basis of all phenomena.” He also said, however, “If ever the physicist solves the problem of the living body, he should no longer be tempted to point to his result and say ‘That’s you.’ He should say rather ‘That is the aggregation of symbols which stands for you in my description and explanation of those of your properties which I can observe and measure. If you claim a deeper insight into your own nature by which you can interpret these symbols—a more intimate knowledge of the reality which I can only deal with by symbolism—you can rest assured that I have no rival interpretation to propose. The skeleton is the contribution of physics to the solution of the Problem of Experience; from the clothing of the skeleton it (physics) stands aloof.” (Wilber, 2001, p. 194)
Take care and keep on thinking.

Well for measurement man uses that 10 percent pretty well to get an accurate measurements for things around him that will impact other people who rely on those readings. These then are useful for man and serve a necessary purpose.

If there were no longer any boundaries or limits would that mean there would no longer be any Truth?
Yes. Truth would be relative.
If there were no longer any boundaries or limits would that mean there would no longer be any Truth?
there wont be multiple truths but one you just mentioned....Just to understand it and then consciously create any kind of temporary truth not having any limitation at all...What a fun...That is going on anyway but ppl is not aware of it fighting within evergoing dilemma true/false. Being conscious is being aware who you are , where you are and what it is all about......

if there was no boundries and no limits....all there would be is...%26quot;truth%26quot;
