i wont tell you what i found out, but it, mixed with most past descoveries has lead me to formulate the following

Hypotesis:

"If you dig enough on anything you will discover things that you wont like and probably were better left undisturbed"

to wich follows:
"You usually cant change things you dont like. Even more: the real causes of those things usually arent apparent, and the consequences derived of changing them using the wrong instruments are usually vast and sometimes chaotic"

corollary:
"ignorance is hapiness?"

There are two primary reasons that account for the existance of relligions:
1 Death
2 Fear

We want to avoid them both.

To truly be a Romantic, the same as to truly be an Ecologist you got to have either loads of resources (exactly to the point where money doesnt matter to you any longer) or a clear lack of self preservation desire...

I discovered today Maya can be as frustrating as facinating. There is a possible work around to a lot of stumbling blocks. That something can lack bulkiness by sight regardless of size - hmmmmmmmm not necessarily a good thing.

I realized that even if you care about somebody...those feelings mean nothing unless they care about you in return...

I also learned that to truly be successful at what you do, you must always keep your head up high and strive to accomplish your goals, no matter how hard the deed, and even when it seems almost impossible, you must never give up, for you will be successful in the end. :p

Thats the reason somebody will want to use relligion to enhance its own power. It doesnt explains why it exists and persists, but why some want it to.

I discovered that this famous quote should be heeded by all. I have lived by this for the last ten years.....

It is not the critic who counts,
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled,
or where the doer of deeds could have done better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena;
whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again;
who knows the great enthusiasms,
the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy course;
who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly;
so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls
who know neither victory or defeat."

Theodore Roosevelt

I discovered today Cofi Anan just said yesterday that the iraq war was illegal. Too little, too late, too ignored and its face too deep in the mud because the boots of oil interests dressed as something else...

i discovered today...

shivers down your back when you sing your national anthem.
And the pride you feel when we remember the people who sacrificed themselves in the Battle Of Britain....
