Same in turn for men, though it is important to distinguish between confidence and bravura.


Please read the entire passage; thank you. Being wealthy doesn't make you above the issues; it makes you a target. Money comes, money goes - you're stuck with yourself for your entire life. And where did the government suddenly rear up and show its ugly head? As that wasn't part of anything I'd mentioned. Again... the point of love is in loving, not in being loved. The premise of withholding love until it is shown to you will do more to eliminate it from your world than invite it.

This is my opinion; I feel love is only a prerequisite to procreation. If there is not that initial pull to get two people together, they are not going to mate and have off-spring.


Love or lust. There is no illegitimacy in nature, though.

But money is not important at all.

What is important is our relationship with nature, animals and plants. We have to have our personal morals and believe in karma and improve ourselves.

There's no reason to wait till you're 50 to become anywhere near wise. You can start now as a young person.

Meditate, think for yourself, ingest mushrooms and other entheogenic plants that will offer you divine experiences. They are growing around us for a reason.

Experience teaches only the teachable!


Money's not important? Ok, if you say so. I just hope your landlord doesn't mind you replacing collateral with hugs and kisses. Same with your electrician, plumber, cable company, gas station, and grocer for that matter. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

well, if experience teaches only the teachable, I suppose they have not had to learn that lesson yet!

Love makes me feel happier than I thought possible, even if it is from my fantasies.
