    Now since then in the times of the age of resentment and loss of idealistic intelligence for the Canadians anyway: the mainstream have come to the conclusion that getting tear gassed and baton whipped at the barricades of the temple of doom (the national convention centre) was what stupid realists of the collapse have purpose for.

    Gong!!


    OPP no brainer eh!? They didn't do that esactly, did they?

    Just to see that a smarter attack is realizing that the cops just won't do that sort of teaching of discrimination.

    I find that many people I know lately try to find happiness in the wrong things....television, material possessions, the big M word, getting what they want, etc. Happiness is a state of mind. It's perceiving your reality in a way that you love, and if something is wrong (ie restricting you, bringing you down) then it's changing it so that you can enjoy yourself.

    I used to be happy regardless of what happened, but this past year has sucked and I find it more and more difficult. I think people lose sight of things as bad things happen and they grow older.

    My original answer was going to be "giving to the world more than I take in," but then I started thinking about all the things I take in from the world....the natural world gives me a lot more than i've ever given it, but nature makes me incredibly happy.

    So I would have to say....happiness to me is living entirely in the moment, shunning materialistic things and instead taking what the natural world has to offer me, giving and taking love with equal parts generosity and greed from my family and friends (i love their love so much i cant help but be greedy with it) and focusing my energy on creative pursuits with the hope that what I create touches someone and, when i leave this world, leaves the world a better place than it was when i came into it.

    ooh what a good question......if I had nothing to lose I would fight. Once I have a family, little mouths to feed, and I'm responsible for more than just me, I suspect my answer will change.

    well right now it is just me but i feel as if i am a burden on those around me so idk if i need to give up on my dreams for a short time to help lift the burden from them. Or do i continue to pursue what my dreams are not worrying about those around me.

    We're dreaming together. We remember others. Compromise comes whether we will it or not. This shit is real!

    I used my air miles card for the first time today. I flew Air Canada so far return. The man flew over La Guardia airport.

    Far out. I'm fear you might not take that seriously. Shucks.:eek:

    Responsibility to others neeeds dissolving. Not lost, just shared, responsibly lol

    Easier said than done I guess. But even just guessing shows us so much of what's possible!

    Wel iv been kinda depressed for years on and off, but i have felt bits of happyness a few times....
    Sumtimes when i wake up, id just wake up in a happy mood, knowing i have nothing i have to do that day apart from hang with a friend and listen 2 music and joke around.
    I dont no f i believe we can just chose to be happy if our mind chemistry doesnt alow it.
    I think one day when my mind is fixed the happyst i will be wil be hanging with my friends and future family, having children and a wife, that would be ultimate.

    i think we control our brain chemistry. I dont think it controls us unless we let it. Its amazing how fast i can snap myself out of something when i'm feeling down.
