It always seems that to be happy with your life you always have to run away from where you are...
maybe...

as for jevad...
thanks for posting this. Although I am still quite young, I still try not to regret anything and live my life to the fullest.
There are things holding me back (ex. family) but I know I'll do what I want to as soon as I have a solid plan or idea.

rand:
she had colon cancer .. pretty advanced stage. i remember clearly the lunch we had when she said she had it and she was not going to use western medicine. scared me pretty bad.
she had packets of herbs shipped from china .. one in particular was made up of chunks of venomous snake! she would boil the herbs in water and drink the juice. smelled like death. she gagged everytime. she also received regular acupuncture, regular colonics. she carried around a bag about the size of a sports bag full of herbs and homeopathic medicine.
another thing she did which i want to do soon is she built her blood by buying chinese red dates and boiling them and drinking the juice. those smelled very sweet.
it took about a year but when she was cured she had a sparkle in her eyes i had never seen. healthier than ever.
that is why i can never be mad at him for leaving.
acupunture is very interesting. it reminds me a lot of design b/c there are philosophies that aren't set ideas .. they changed according to the circumstance.
it was so much fun to learn. you become a sort of detective. you can actually diagnose people by watching their habits and behaviors.

i can't believe i just cried on the internets.
when you were posting about your friends/family i didn't know what to say. i always want everyone to have the same experience as my mom and i know it's possible. just hard to relay sometimes.

I wish I were close with my family. I am just so different from the rest of them. Whenever I see mothers and daughters on tv or something and they're all happy and sharing so much...it just gets me everytime.
I know my parents care about me...they just don't try to get to know me. Even after years of asking them to. I think it's too late now.
- Jaline0
yes, we should definitely have a PVN group hug.
- zedvox0

alright group...zed's making tiramisu for all...who wants?

Some of the cliche's u guyz missed out:
Seize The Day!
Imagine Every Day You Live Is A Page in the Book of Your Life!
Suck The Marrow out of Life!How about making posters out of these sycophantic, petty bourgeois musings on your desperation to give value to your vacuous lives.
Hey Jevad, I think escaping to a buddhist monastery would do you good - might help you get over your fascination and love affair with your own ego.
I took my girlfriend to see the palace of Versailles one time, and she said "hmm, not as big as i thought it would be". You're right Lauren, it's not as big as you'd think. In fact, it's a pretty under-whelming experience. Don't let that stop you clickety-clicking with your camera though. At least, it's another tick on your checklist for "things to do before i die". How about we work on my checklist now? How about a threeway with you and your best friend before my next birthday?
If only you could see what I've seen with your eyes. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
Yeah exactly. And all you will ever have of them is report cards, macaroni pictures, action shots taken with your 32x zoom lens. Oh and bad teenage poetry.
Live life to the fullest? Will that stop me from being a miserable bastard like some of you lot? I doubt that.
Some people are consumed with the fear of death. Me, i dont know where i'm going, but I go there with open arms.
Embrace oblivion.
Cheer up. It might not happen. :)

Our being is subject to all the chances of life. There are so many things we are capable of, that we could be or do. The possibilities are so great that we never, any of us, are more than one-fourth fulfilled.

that's such a true statement - there are literally an infinite number of possiblities and paths that any one person culd take during their life and you still get people regretting or wondering 'what if' or thinking the grass is greener - what, you say you want to achieve every single thing possible known to man!? no chance! Get on with living! (easier said than done, mind!)
