hi jhartsock !
perhaps you are right
i don't think asking someone to ask a midwayer if this statement is true or not is going to make a difference with the path you've set up for yourself. is it true to you ? and if it is, what then ? and if it isn't- is that going to stop you from reaching your goal ?
if you want something bad enough.... ?
so you have it in your mind that once you do this- life will mean that.
maybe you're right, but once you get there- what then !? is there not always something more? something to KEEP AT, something to CHANGE- something unexpected or something relived, relearned even. always something... if you FEEL like this is going to help you, great !! power to you. maybe the idea of this, end goal, is a little incentive from your angels. a TINY taste of something that CAN be. and even than, it has to be just a SMALL portion of something MORE that you have yet the knowledge of.
i like your goals too. could this serve as an indicator of your maturity ? what do you mean you want to be more spiritually aware ?
i've read teachings that say, god is in all things- even in those or that which you condemn. i believe, the more you put your heart into something and experience first hand- the more you will gain spiritually. NOTE: i did NOT just mention ANYTHING about your happiness... this life is sure to be TRYING- certainly i do not live an enlightened life , i do not see god al(l)ways... but it is this teaching that has helped me accept love on a larger scale and understand SOME basic workings of the heart- but even more so, it is the experience that has helped my conscious unfold and strive towards peace within myself and surroundings.
we're just talking(typing
no, thinking out loud hehe)- the real knowledge comes from simply living your life. learning about yourself, your wants/needs- and even the wants/needs of others. thanks for the thread
GOALS-
ASK, HOW CAN I REACH THEM ? THEN, get out there and DO IT.
! peace ! =] !
new meaning ? new to WHO ?
