Master Don Juan
HAHA Holland,
Iqqi wasn't the only one that was confused by what you were saying. After clarifying what you wrote.
I understand where you are coming from because I used to be like that to an extent. Then, I realized that they were really miserable in my opinion because all they did was go out and party. Without alcohol, most of them were plain people that didn't have much fun.
I went out on a search for the outcasts (by society standards) that loved themselves for who they are.
That is where I found my roommate, my swing dance group, my western martial arts club, and many other people with or without alcohol are still able to have fun (think art and music majors). Those people are fvcken wild :trouble: .
As to your tony robbin book example:
I love that passage from his "Awaken the Giant within" book. I believe that the exact quote is:
If you liked Tony Robbins, try Mark Victor Hansen and Jack Canfield. I love reading those two. They usually partner up for books, but some they do alone. But I digress.
As to Iqqi's friend who got the person who looked like he was hit in the face by a mac truck. It only appears that way, Holland, didn't actually happen. He just looks ugly as sin.
I will explain. "Good and bad is all about the point of view that you look at it." What may be truth for you, might be a lie for me.

It was something to that effect. I love that quote because it made me laugh so much when I read it.Antony Robbins said:Fat guy: "Well, I don't care about my looks and body, it's just a vehicle."
Tony Robbins: "Mmmm, is it a quality vehicle?"
Fat guy: "That doesn't matter, it gets me where I want to go"
Tony Robbins: "What if I told you that your body is the temple of God?"
Fat guy: "God loves fat people"
Tony Robbin: "You know what I believe? I believe God roasts fat people over hell like a marshmallow."

I also believe that this is a big problem. Considering that I grew up with obese people/family my whole life. I refuse to grow overweight (that is not muscle mass) and some members of my family have the same idea. I always disagree with them. It's just a part of my psyche.Holland said:I think it's very lame to deny your outer body and just let it get mediocre.
I think this is the big trap of spirituality. People start thinking to less of their outer appearance. They 'forget' they're still living in this physical world.
Yes, you're a spiritual being, but you're also a spiritual being having a PHYSICAL experience. Never forget that.
I have been saying that the entire post. That is why this post is not a flame war yet.latinoman said:2) You have a girl. What some men call an 8 others can call a 4. Who cares what others think about your girl's looks?
Is this the only issue or is this the only issue that you are willing to share? I will work on that...latinoman said:5) The only issue I see...and I will share with you has NOTHING to do with the pictures you posted it. Posting pictures for the sole purpose of getting people you have NEVER seeing opinions is an insecurity issue. Work on that.
Thank you for your kind words, I have yet to take most of the things that have been said to heart. I am beyond listening to my detractors and look for the truth in everything. Sometimes, i see no truth at all in some statements like "you suck" or "your girlfriend is ugly." Although, there is truth to each of these statements, which is paradoxical, but is actually true.penkitten said:amen to lationman.
comic, you have more going on for yourself than other members on this board have a clue about, and you are a happy guy.
your life is full of lots of things, please do not take to heart what every single person on this thread has written, because those are the sorts of things that will weigh you down with unnecessary thoughts and burdens.
