"The planet does not need more successful people"

[Voice for Peace]

9. there's a whole universe inside of us as well

and consciousness itself is endlessly fascinating.

There may be a limit to what is outside of us; certainly all
of it is changeable, subject to time. But inside of us
is something not subject to time, or change, and it is
more fascinating than anything else I've encountered.

I was responding to the tone of your post, as much as anything.
It's probably not your intention but you're coming across
a bit condescending. Why feel the need to minimize our
human existence, or another person's perspective?
Referring in particular to your use of the word "proper" in your
other post, which directly implies everyone else's point of view
is improper; this sets a tone & doesn't invite friendly
discussion.

A suggestion, if you want it: to reword your statement above
like this:

Of course I marvel. That's the whole point of my post.
If I'm just marveling at my body and my consciousness,
I am missing out. There's a whole universe out there, and
probably more than that.


The original statement sounds condescending. The
revised version is about you, not me, and presents your
own point of view -- which is the only pov any of us
can actually know.

You have no way of knowing whether someone else is
missing out or not. You only know if you are missing out,
or if you feel that you are.

The most important thing for me in my life is to make
sure I'm not missing out.

And I hope you'll forgive my suggestions on your self-
expression; but I firmly believe that poor communication
is the cause of tons of misunderstanding, confusion,
hurt feelings, unnecessary arguments, and more.
