mercury of love

Update:

mercury of love

Update 2:

if the dilemma here is that the problem happens to be on a very very thin line which can create some if not most negatives in your life, how are you going to work with your limits then?

    Life is life, just a string of events that flow through time with a complete disregard of relative terms such as perfection or imperfection. As human being our limits are physical; we can only jump so high or run so fast. The human mind, on the other hand, knows no limits other than those we place upon it. What we dream about, what we love, what we try to create, and problems we my try to solve may me unattainable but nevertheless there are no limits in the thought process. Trying to answer you question, Mercury, I would suggest shoot for the stars brushing aside all limits as you are carried along this torrent of energy, time, and beautifully arranged particles of atomic dust called life.

    Most people rely on custom and religion to provide a structure for their choices.

    I will go as far as I can with most things, as long as I am fairly sure it will not harm me or other people. But some damage I seem to accept (losing some range in my hearing because of liking loud music, saying goodbye to friends who are really self-destructive, letting my weight yo-yo as I give in to various whims in regard to food...)

    I end up accepting that I am doing my best, although my "best" will never be great! And I NEVER regret anything. I am puzzled by people regretting things. I figure every error I make, I make with the best I can do at that time, and it gives me something to learn from. I feel sad if there are lingering bad effects from those choices, but I wouldn't go back and do it differently if I could. There is good and bad in every event that occurs.

    If all the bad things people did to me didn't happen, I would not be the person I am now. I wouldn't have had to develop any resilience or creativity or stamina, I would just be a limp noodle of a person.
