.action.must.be.taken.
01.17.07 (3:25 am)   [edit]

Quoting freelove: don't you think life is easier to bear if you have a "meaning" or "purpose" to motivate your action? if you believe that everything you do is pointless in the grand scheme of things, it's pretty hard to get motivated ... and it is fairly easy to prove things are pointless, because at the end of the world, all of this thriving life will be reduced to nothing ... making every act as if it were nothing ... (rant all you like... ;))

Okay.. *stretches* here comes a brief novel..

"I" make my own meaning; I get out of existance what I choose to.

If this is now, and now is all we have, should we be wasting time pondering if it counts or not? Is the Past Relative? we cannot change it (thats another rant). Is the future relevant? it has not come yet. Should we not live in the now, the experience of Now; we are Human Beings, and should "be'.

If it 'counts', then we should have spent the time 'living', not 'Considering' living.

If it doesn't count, if our actions do not matter, would we be here pondering it? that seems a bit redundant.

Why have time, if we do not choose what we do with it?

We preceive what we choose to.

We focus and understand what our senses allow us to. And I assure you there are more worlds & events taking place than we can comprehend taking action, as we exist in the now.

If you have the time to complain about something,
you have the time to DO something about it.

... from the Bhagavad-Gita..
" You have control over action alone,
never over its fruits.
Live not for the fruits of action,
nor attach yourself to inaction. "

Feelings are from the realm of the mind, and what we tell ourselves, what we 'feed' our minds with is the result we get out. I'm making this as brief as possible, just bare with my bad summary.

The Body produces hormones and protiens based on what we tell it to; neurologically, systemically, physiologically, subconsciously. Sometimes our bodies & cells are used to being fed the same proteins and 'negative' emotions, and we physically can become addicted to this imbalance.

It can take a force of thought, life changing event, or a need to create a chemical stability, in order to re-define our physical 'needs' in terms of what we tell our bodies, what we 'feel'. So we have to feed it differently.

When we use negative internal statements "I'm ugly, stupid; I never have enough time" etc... we reinforce an internal concept. its a pattern that is very hard to break; mental 'chatter' is very hard to free ourselves from.

So, back on topic.. Motivation... Meaning.. Purpose. Our purpose is to Live, to Be... to experience life. It is our experiences that make us unique, our actions define us.

Why do I need purpose or meaning as a motivation?

'Living' Is motivation, it certainly is something you can only say for sure you only do once, like Death, another type of journey, you only get to do it once.

*sigh* Everything is about Perspective.

Life and living matter to ME, so it matters.

A fable example :

" the beach is miles long and there are hundreds of stranded starfish, many will die before you reach them - do you really think throwing back a few starfish is really going to make a difference?"

"It makes a difference to this one" she said.

My advice... and choice..

.. Save the world, one life at a time, starting with your own.

much love
