RE: Philosophical discussion panel; What constitutes a great life?

in #philosophy8 years ago

These thoughts have tumbled through my mind for years, I have expressed them in similar fashion around a multitude of campfires. There is one thing however, that I realized hinders us utterly. We are timeless beings living an existence that is ruled by time. Because deep down in our spirits, we know that time is an illusion, when we face it, it becomes a struggle. We can meditate and be in the moment, but we can't meditate twenty-four hours a day. It is a stale mate, if you will, between this physical realm and our physical forms and the spirits that inhabit us. That are stuck in this prison.
Once I realized this, instead of looking at it like a prison, because let's face it, that sucks ha, instead I saw it as a challenge, a game,-a play. And our bodies are the costumes we're wearing in this theatrical production. So how do we live a great life? We just do. We just see it as great, and it is...because that's the one thing that time has no effect on, the knowing in our spirit that all is well, so long as we say it is. And naturally this is going to mean all different things to all different people, and that's great, that's what makes it a game, or a fun one anyway ;)

I forgot that you said something about giving away steem in this post...thank you :) Oh, people like their phones around here too, but we make a point to put them away when we're doing certain activities like campfires ;)

Or taking LSD haha.

One of my biggest goals in this life is to acquire my own land and create a sustainable community and if I have children they will grow up like this
