    So i was writing the other day about achieving greatness. I came up my definition of true greatness is conquering yourself in totality and finding what makes you as a person truly happy. I also come to conclusion that i could do this by myself(i was in a very pessimistic mood do yo some troubles with a girl at the time).

    Then i got high today a wrote the following passage and would like to know your thoughts

    Who makes it to greatness with out the glue that holds him together. Who is every truly happy without a strong person beside them to share the glory of the achievement. The achievement of true happiness. This true deep inner joy is impossible without someone who understands you better than yourself. Someone who accepts you for who you are in all totality. Accepts every face you put on, every persona you put on; from the angry fat kid to the empathetic intellectual. Someone who you are not afraid to show the deepest inner workings of yourself to.

    Thanks all
    Much Love

    i think that describes my mom first, and then my hubby. some things have to be dosed in sharing with hubby, but my mom really gets me. and even when she doesn't, she accepts me. i built her a flowerbed today, just 'cause. and she gets that i needed to DO something with dirt and lifting, because i live in a crappy high altitude apartment and i want to have a homestead with chickens and gardens and its not an easy dream to achieve. shes going to let me practice building with cob by letting me build a cob oven in her backyard. it will be awesome.

    i think absolute "greatness" is accepting everything and being content with it. i think it's having an answer to most things, while accepting that your answers may be wrong, and also accepting that sometimes there are no answers. however this is near impossible because people will never be content and accepting of everything, until maybe they are on their death bed because nothing matters anymore.

    a realistic "greatness" would be coming to terms with the fact that you will never know the absolute and complete/utter truth about ANYTHING except for yourself and your thoughts. no matter how much you trust a person, even if they never "did" anything to you, you still have no idea what they are thinking and if they tell you you have absolutely no way of knowing if that's true or not. a realistic greatness would be knowing yourself inside and out and loving every aspect of who you are because in the so called "end" it is really you and you alone. sure you have memories of other people that have plagued your life for better or for worse, but who is there to share them with you? no one, just you. butbutbut i didn't mean any of this in a pessimistic way at all, it's actually quite hopeful (to me at least).

    :confused:

    that was something i thought about on shrooms, and it made me really really happy that i had grasped that thought

    I don't think that the "happiness" that is felt in another persons company is true happiness. Happiness is acceptance.
