good intentions=rewards

it seems like every time ive ever had a good intention is the only time ive evere recieved anything good in life. like when i wanted to become a vegetarian to reduce suffering and help the environment, i learned a tremendous amount about health and well being and all sorts of shit. then when i wanted to bicycle to help the environment, i learned about excercise and how it sordove gets you high and helps your well being. i have countless other more detailed examples that sordove confirmed this idea for me that arent coming to mind right now, but it really makes sense in my head. has anyone else ever experienced this? its sordove like instant karma i guess, something im coming to be a firm believer in.

 

Knowledge has improved your life, not good intentions.

 

Well, maybe, seems more like learning to me, but learning for a good reason with good results. But the real reason I'm replying is because I feel a strong need to tell you it's spelled "sort of" not "sordove"

 

Maybe the stranger meant Soar Dove... you never know.

 

haha
that made me laugh.


i personally don't beleive in the concept of karma, since it implies some upper invisible hand that will somehow bring reward for good deeds.
in my concept of this world, there are no rewards given in some natural karmic cycle, the only rewards we receive are the ones we find ourselves.

karmic distribution is a comforting thought, but thats about it. it implies some natural sense of justice in this world which i find very hard to beleive in.

 

Word.

 

hiro and I have really influenced you, its quite obvious


word.

 

Not really, I just think 'word' is kind of funny, and I agreed with what he said.

 

word is funny


i've been using it too often though in every day speech though, gotta cut back.


oh and i do agree with what Peace wrote also. word to that.

 

Haha I don't think I ever actually use it when I'm talking, just on the fora occasionally.

 

patrick your sig pic is really cute

 

yes, everything we do is for our own good. it's called survival.
you make decisions constantly in order to keep yourself alive.. i dunno about 'instant karma' though. as humans, we are our ego, and our ego is preoccupied with keeping itself going.

i was thinking about this the other day when i gave out half a pack of smokes to a bunch of goons on the street. i was like, "yeah, see i'm a good person, la de da... doing good deeds makes me feel good!"
whatever; that's my ego talking.
if it was really a good deed, i would not think about it at all after the action.
there would be nothing to it.
as humans we do things for our own benefit.

 

I know, I wuv it..

 

hahaha


i cant beleive you said wuv

haha.

aww, ya it is cute. im still kinda jealous that she got you first, but you two are very cute together.

 

What's wrong with wuv? Hehehe I think we are quite cute together too.
