TOUR OF THE INVISIBLE

Isn't consciousness amazing?  I know and I feel, but yet I can't feel what you feel... I don't know if you're real or if you feel but based on your response, you are real, I think. What if... you're the only one who can feel in this world, others are just a pre-programmed robot?  & “We replace every cell every 7 or years” .... Really?

KIDS MENTAL HEALTH

What defines normal behaviour for kids? Wait, What is NORMAL anyway?  I stumbled upon this article about “ disruptive mood dysregulation disorder ,” or DMDD . If DSM-5 is officially published (it’s due in 2013), kids will be deemed DMDD if they show " severe recurrent temper outbursts that are grossly out of proportion in intensity or duration to the situation .” … at least three times a week. I don't know what is normal for a kid, I don't have one, but I grew up as a kid, and so do you. So, I think temper outbursts is indeed usual - especially for spoilt kids. Perhaps this is another conspiracy of getting the new generation to be obedient to rules and laws without any deep questioning or rethinking.

IDEALIST QUOTES

MEANING OF LIFE

Poet Charles Bukowski wrote:  For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered.  But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries.  We are pliable. Love need not be a command or faith a dictum.  I am my own God.  We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.  We are here to read these words from all these wise men and women who will tell us that we are here for different reasons and the same reason.
