What are you thinking right now?

[ladyforsaken]

but my other half said it's okay that it was disable for good but again I will be misunderstood that I did it delibrately, like I said Once I had thought why not remove the reps system altogether but things have turned in a way that it seems like I did it intentionally to make it disabled which is trully co-incidential.

I'm not sure what you meant by your other half but as we all know, whatever we do or think or want can't please everyone. Some people here might agree that the rep system should be gone but some like it because it helps them feel better in more ways than one.

Whether it was intentional or coincidental, that's kinda redundant now that things have happened and things are where they are now.

See, that's the point. the fragile balance of Intentional and Coincidental and cause of my past statements, It stops me from making an apology. What happened was unintentional and unprecented but afterwards the result is such, that I had once thought, it's sort of complicated If you know what I mean.

I understand your point of view. As I said though, one can acknowledge and apologise for how their actions have affected people, and still standing up to their beliefs. There is a difference between standing up for what is right and being arrogant about it.

I think there is a lot of truth to this. I like it. It's a way one can try to understand others' hurt feelings, while not compromising your own, so there would be no need to feel as though you have backed down or betrayed yourself. You can give compassion but at no cost of self-respect. Being sorry for an event or situation or some other problem, but not for who you are or what you believe to be true.

I don't mean to be facetious, but good job articulating things.

It's about time that POINTLESS thread was put out of it's misery. Lol.

Just be careful, take your time, and think of everybody.

and that's the main problem too, I think of everybody, everybody.

This long car trip is making me really sleepy... z____z

 

[Broken_Doll]

I'm thinking about possible storage/display options for all of my collections and other stuff. Definitely need some shelves.

Breakfast would be good right now - perhaps I'll make toast and tea.

"Jaws" by Peter Benchley is what I'm currently reading and it's got me thinking - I have always loved sharks (great whites in particular, the image of "Jaws" is pretty much iconic).
The whole cutesy dolphins Vs killer sharks is most unfair - dolphins have been known to kill for fun (porpoises in this instance: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ck-kill-two-porpoises-FUN-cat-mouse-game.html) and are very intelligent, where as sharks are kind of demonized when really mankind has always been a greater danger to sharks than sharks are to mankind.

I'll either do some more reading or watch "Game of Thrones", can't decide which one, either way I should definitely get some breakfast I think.

I need to save more money it seems.

I don't know what to do with myself today.

 

[TheRealCallie]

Okay, time to get this day started, I guess...lots to do.

 

[PenDragon]

Hmm, The only positive thing out of this is... It's gone for good but I hate to see myself who got all the load for this. Damn! I only had that thought once and look it happened and it happened in worst possible way. Only few days ago I was telling I only have to think about something and it happens and make me looks like I'm using sort of future seeing power but well, let see what other things are in my head. I hope it doesn't involve more than 20,000 people this time.

No one has said the rep system is gone for good. It is just disabled for the moment until the mods decide what to do.
Now, please stop before you get the thinking thread taken away from the forum too....unless of course you don't think we should have this either?

 

[Rainbows]

Perhaps not saying anything to not worsen the situation would be a fabulous idea.

[Tealeaf]

The only good thing about politics is that it shows everyone is equally horrible.

 

[PenDragon]

^ Absolutely true.

I'll trade my sun and warmth for your crap weather. Lol

our summer is nearly over now. It hasn't been much good, everybody is complaining. I quite like the morning when I am cycling to work, just that little chill in the air !

I wish my parents understood how fragile my mood is, and how making certain comments, even just one, is enough to completely destroy it. It takes me a lot of thinking and rationalizing, reading and re-reading certain ideas to make me feel even the smallest amount of hope and belief in myself. It's like a weak little sapling, it doesn't take much to cut it down. I can't grow it into a thick, tall, mighty redwood tree right away after years of disappointments and defeats and things just not making sense.

I feel that even with my so-called intelligence (which I always questioned) and my education, even seeing myself in a middle class lifestyle (let alone a lifestyle that I truly enjoy and feel good about and actually like being me and don't at all wish I could be someone else) is like trying to convince myself that a fairy tale is real. It takes a lot of meditation on my part to feel like I have a chance, to feel like I have any sort of potential at all, and to disprove the strong gut feeling that I've had for a long time that we are just part of the "designated loser crew" (a phrase someone coined on another thread). I wake up feeling like crap every morning, and must disprove this idea every day before I even do anything, otherwise I just sit and feel hopeless, like I'm just fundamentally not good enough to have the things I'd like and to do the things I want to do and be the person I want to be, to be able to enjoy the experiences I want in my life.

I am trying to change how I think about myself and how I feel inside and trying to find a path to get on where I actually start to have some pride and even like who I am, and it's not easy. I just wish they realized that saying certain things really brings me down, and how hard it is for me to have confidence and belief in myself.
