    Like pleasure and pain - sickness and health - abundance and poverty - etc.

    There's a balance to be achieved, a sweet spot of sorts between the two poles. Each are of the same substance, but as with most everything else, at least one side of desires to be the ruling force. I can accept some pain with my pleasure in life, as in it's part of life and the pleasure can increase an pain decrease equal to the increase. The same is true for sickness and health, abundance and poverty. Some people just get ensnared in old ways of being and thinking and living and don't seem to understand that with increase comes decrease, just as with ascension comes descension and vice versa.

    She asked: "Which way are you going?"

    I replied: "Somewhere better than here."

    It's like Alice and the Cheshire cat scene in Alice in Wonderland. She didn't really know where, so the cat said it didn't really matter then. I myself … well … I'm going somewhere better than, and with that comes more pleasure less pain, more abundance less poverty, more health less sickness, and with that an ever increasing ebb and flow of the same without end.

    How about you? Do you know where you're going?

    Oblivion likely, just as everybody else. Blissful nothingness A.K.A. eternal rest :)

    I enjoy resting as in sleeping but I don't love it. I enjoy living too much to love sleeping, so I'll disagree with the sentiment above, knowing that new universes are being birthed daily and more than just many too …

    Oblivion … That I do not see, but then even when life fades to black, I hear tell there's a light we see also. It might be the same one we have inside ourselves. Life is a lot like a record ya know?

    As you age and sleep becomes a problem due to various aches and pains and night-time adjournments you might get to love being able to sleep soundly.

    What has eartly rest/rest during life and how much we enjoy it or not to do with sinking into eternal oblivion/rest? The latter is merely called as such. We're gone in that rest. Not in our rest during life.

    You don't see it because it is what comes after life.

    I don't think so, no. Not sure what you're talking about though. Explain? :)

    Lets pretend for a moment that on the other side of this life is a birth and the other side of that life is yet another birth, so on so forth. Also, if the possibility exists for a continuation of, a sort of suspended animation of sorts on the other side of this life, that would mean it is also an infinite reality.

    So, no matter which way you go there is still life after this life and the next. The music, a symphony of sorts between two lovers who understand the music who share the same music with others too. I've also been thinking about magnets. One magnet, two sides .. Inside myself is the opposite of the outside, and the same would be true for what I see outside of myself … as in others. Opposites attract correct? So, with magnets where do the force fields belong? Which side of the magnets attract? Like male and female and positive and negative, both of which are required for life to exist. Think batteries and electronics.

    By the way, I'm bipolar so I've been dealing with this since my early 20's … I'm 48 now. Some prefer to counter the criss cross with meds but after it has already been remedied what's the point in that? I guess what I'm trying to say is inside myself I know what I enjoy and like most, which somehow manifests itself outside myself. That's where the attraction comes in to play … and quite literally I might add. Otherwise it's all sickness and imbalance and poverty as opposed to health, balance, abundance, and all the good tidings that come with them.

    I'm sorry, you lost me.

    So the music is metaphorically?

    The only spirits I know come in glass bottles labelled Gin, Whiskey, Brandy, Rum, Vodka, etc. etc

    Each of which have their own "signature profile" I assume?

    If you regard the distillers label as a 'signature profile' then yes.

    Ever have a glass of wine with certain qualities in every bottle? I don't consider labels a signature profile, but rather the bottle and contents of ya know? I could label the positive terminal on a battery with a - instead of a + but that doesn't make it true. Labels can be misleading. Is that your point?

    No, we have laws about labelling and the contents of the bottle must match what the label says it is.
