I don't know if being positive is the answer. Sometimes when you focus only on the positive you don't see the obvious dangers inherent within some things you are doing.

Possibly a weighing up of the positive and the negative gives a much clearer view of things and helps you to avoid certain pitfalls.

As for going with the flow - well, that is definately the stress free and eyes wide open way to do things - Thats the way I go and I get more done, and because I see all angles (positive and negative) I no longer make so many silly mistakes - like I did in the past when I was just being "positive".

I'll post a famous quote - "You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step"

I think that was Martin Luther Kings quote (i could be wrong).

Each goal has an end target - but we arrive at that end by taking small steps in the now - thats going with the flow! ;)

Now you need to learn and live in this "real" world. It's not easy and sometimes you'll get a very strong desire to go back to sleep.

But at least you've got like minded individuals on here to help ease the tension :cool:

theres no right or wrong answer i dont think. just do what you feel is right at the time and listen to your self. you'll learn things as you need to know it.

Go with the flow, but dont actually go with it. See, if you go against it, people will notice. You cant let people know that you know anything. Act like your clueless. As things progress, the Government is going to try to get rid of anyone who knows the truth about them. Pretend you dont know, but keep the knowledge, and never stop searching.

[deafbred]

know, what ever is going on, happening in front of you, is for a reason.


don't get caught up in the anger or hate or to much emotional.... blinders.

we got to keep our heads here. "focus" - you have talents, and a brain of your own. don't clutter it up with ANY follies.

you got to learn as much as you can. things that will be useful to you.

try your best to overcome and not be to affected by insanities when they ensue before you eyes.

know, that you alone as a single individual, have endless potential and plenty opportunity to make a contribution for change in a positive direction for the flight of a free human people from the chains of oppression. you are in a position to substantially change the world around you, and help delete the shadows of evils rein over an ignorant audience.

your voice. 'choice' -in the noise. listen, hear, (know not fear), keep your eyes fixed and gazed apon your individual perspective truth talent totality. (hone it premium)

but know, to, that god is at hand, in all things, ......so don't be anxietied. don't get wrapped up in worldly stresses. ENDURE. stay true to yourself and don't sell yourself short when you know what is right and the world is trying to lead you to be and do wrong.

go upstream, don't go along with the world just to get along. the uncontrolable are emptying into the sea. deluded.


Jam 1:6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.


DON'T DOUBT! you have no doubt you are awake. don't loose that. the compass of this world isn't the compass of an awake and free people.

Cr 7:26 I think that in view of the present distress it is good for a person to remain as he is.

Cr 7:27 Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek a wife.

Cr 7:28 But if you do marry, you have not sinned, and if a betrothed woman [fn] marries, she has not sinned. Yet those who marry will have worldly troubles, and I would spare you that.

Cr 7:29 This is what I mean, brothers: the appointed time has grown very short. From now on, let those who have wives live as though they had none,

Cr 7:30 and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no goods,

Cr 7:31 and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away.

Cr 7:32 I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to please the Lord.

Cr 7:33 But the married man is anxious about worldly things, how to please his wife,

Cr 7:34 and his interests are divided. And the unmarried or betrothed woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit. But the married woman is anxious about worldly things, how to please her husband.

Cr 7:35 I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.

Cr 7:36 If anyone thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his betrothed, if his passions are strong, and it has to be, let him do as he wishes: let them marry--it is no sin.

Cr 7:37 But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well.

Cr 7:38 So then he who marries his betrothed does well, and he who refrains from marriage will do even better.

Cr 7:39 A wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.

Cr 7:40 Yet in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I too have the Spirit of God.

Make your own flow and go with it; be your own stream ;)

We're all on our own paths, and we all experience what we need to - I've always felt this to be true. But be not focused on getting to the destination so much that you miss the entire journey along the path towards wherever you're going to end up... because it's the path that is the whole point :D And only the Present is ever known and felt directly.

If you begin to see no-thing as separate from yourself, then everything starts making much more sense. :)

..Enjoy your experiences! Thick and thin :p

go with the flow and see where it takes you.
in my time i have seen some truly hilarious things that only an awake person would find funny.my advice is to follow this stream at your own pace, because as Hicks said "life is just a ride".might as well enjoy it.
