[srgtpepperisthebest]

myes forum time is fast time

[Snaggle_Tongue]

i know the feeling.

Oh my, the notion of time, the revelation that one's life is flowing as grains of sand through the hourglass...and these are the days of our lives.

I mean...well yes, it goes by very fast. The only thing we can do is hope that we've not wasted our years, and that what we have done, in real life and anywhere else, has been worth it, personally for each individual, at the least.

are you trying to scare everyone away from the forum? :P
meh but I know what you mean :P
some of you people probably regret ever metting me :P
(some friends of me do because I have brought them in trouble lots of times)
(but I always got them out again :P)
Life is fun when you don't go trough it alone

I do not regret meeting you.

Nobody has caught my soap opera reference?

But in all matters serious, yes, time does go by fast, and it is my conviction that this society moves much too fast to allow folks to live psychologically or spiritually happy lives, with all that is demanded of us...from doing one's homework to saving up for retirement. The stress of necessity ruins it all, and so do superficial matters. Ugh. Might be getting slightly too deep though...

Sometimes I wonder if it would be better if I went to live as a hermit in some cave somewhere.

[Firesnake]

only if I can come too ^^
but I think that you can be as happy as you want to be.
But that's only if you make the right choices no?

[Terminal Est]

It depends, really. Individual perception has various ''definitions'' of what choices may be right.

How does one go about defining what is right and what is not? Whatever the conviction one holds of this, nobody can confirm its grounds, no matter how much they believe they can.
That is, if there even is an absolute image of such matters.

One cannot perceive an outcome exactly as it will come out, and my personal take is that with the hardships and mistakes one may endure, wisdom is taught in exchange, and the only reason one may keep going is because, in the end, one may derive happiness from such.
Being a hermit would not work, as I would stall and stagnate in whatever progression I have foreseen in my life. It works for not a soul, as nothing but insanity is derived from such behaviour.

Alone or with someone else, the ''choice'' may belong to you, weather you believe or not that there is a right one, but the outcome does not. It is inevitable always, and from this, take it as you see it.

Gah, one pessimistic post and one somewhat positive outlook in the same day, and in the same thread.

ahh again the great question: is everything we do thought out before we where born?

but I still wanna go with you to that cave
