Im fuckin lossed...I need help! PLEASE READ!

I felt like this a long time. I got a small bit happier and happier as my life went on. Now I'm fourty and I made it passed being a punk rocker in Hollywood and all the other shit. I finally found a good woman, a house and all the other stuff that we collect, as well as religion and so on. Finally I got some help out of the blue. I don't know how I bunped into someone who could help me financially but I did.

Friend, just speak your prayer straight in your heart and I tell you that things will manifest as you dream though it might take a long time.

I never committed suicide because I was always told that we come back at square zero if we do it. That gave me more fear - just having to do it all again - than anything. I'm happier and happier because I am getting older and older and closer and closer to death. Soon I can relax from all the shit for awhile. I'm hoping for a pure Buddha land.

 

Very well put.

Regardless of the many man-made religions that are based on it, the gospels of the New Testament provide an undeniably good manual for treating people right and living a solid life.
You can't not respect Jesus Christ as an ideal; he is written to have believed he was dying to save every human being on the face of the earth. I could not do that. My point in that don't disrespect Christ because of the man-made garbage that has attached itself to him; that is really true ignorance. And I don't care who you are, everybody loves Ned Flanders.

Go to school. Oh my gosh I can't echo that enough.

 

however unless you read the bible by yourself, decide you own beliefs and then find out other peoples beliefs and guidance, it is not good reading material because it is now so widly open to bias interpretation

 

Hey bro, sorry to hear about your situation, ive experianced alot of the same kind of shit myself. My suggestion is to travel. Go backpacking all around europe and stay in hostels all the way. I guarentee you that you'll meet hundreds of cool, down to earth people that you'll keep in touch with for the rest of your life. You may even fall in love. Take it from me, you'll arrive home a refreshed, changed person with a new outlook on life.

Peace and good luck
Dylan

 

Hmmm I don't know, I'm gonna say everything is open to bias interpretation. In my experience I just think inference depends on where a person is at and how they are feeling. There's this one passage in Matthew where the rich kid with everything asks what he needs to do to enter Heaven. Jesus tells him that it is harder for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone like him to go to heaven.

So like, someone who feels hopeless and weak is going to interpret Jesus' words differently than someone who has everything and feels like they have no need for direction outside their own wants and desires.

Without question, the New Testament is a 'friendly helping book', like singing, "I ought to see the man Mulcahey" when you find yourself in need of wisdom

 

pretty much id say to sit down and think about what you really want, life isn't bad although yours maybe at the moment, it can be good. so sit down and think what would make you happy? out of everything what would you like to be your situation? once you figure out what you want you can get started getting there. life is really hard sometimes but there are things in it that make the rough times worth it. and if i may use a possibly overused quote "its allways darkest before the dawn". theres alot of darkness but there is beauty around every corner...all you have to do is turn.
