i want to be laid out and burned with all those who i cared for standing by letting the wind blow my ashes to the ends of the world. however i would also like to have one of those little buildings but i want two knights guarding the entrence and sitting on a stone throne will be a carving of myself and it will hold my sword at the side so people have a place to go to remember me by. a little odd but it something i have thought about before. would be really cool to have the king say something like a motion sensor just for fun. |

thanks for the advice and sorry i took so long to respond i have been very busy and my mind has been everywhere except where i needed it to be. a few of the things i read from people shows that i am not alone and that helps more then anything honestly. around my area it nothing but churches far as the eye can see and basically nothing else cause the town is dieing slowly. my town is gripped by the church and you really cant do anything they dont like because they all get up in arms and crap like that. for example we had a group of "pagens" that were in the area just passing through but wanted to have a open class for people who might have been curious well the church caught wind and got them kicked out of just about every place they tried to have the meeting at until so guy with a good sized house agreed and then they stood out there with signs and preaching to save their souls and all the garbage. i sooo wanted to go just to learn something from people who pratice that just so i could have some kind of understanding but my mother being the good christian she is took my keys from me and called my work to request more hours since it was summer so i never got that chance and i concider it a missed opertunitiy. *sigh* well things happen i guess but it this self richous attutide and that everything they believe is right and good and anything else is evil and the devil. just wish they would pratice what they preach about compassion and understanding letting people make the "mistake" but being there to lead them back not stopping them from making it. lately when people ask me anything about religion i tell them i am spirtual not religous and that the best answer i think i can give because it is honest and i try to do what is right to me not based off a book that people are unsure if is real. thanks again for the replys hope this sparks new debats and/or topics |

wow i must say i am surprised at all the negitive posts. frankly i understand what people saying about the music and expecting more celtic stuff but all in all i found the guys singing and whatnot was pretty good. i own the dvd and both cds and i listen to them basically everyday. i also own the celtic women dvds and i like them as well but it was nice to see/hear a good group of guys. i say keep it up and hope for a second dvd |

this is something i thought of a while ago and while i never really talk about it with people i know it is something to ponder. what if everything and everyone we know isnt real? what if our life is really just a dream? maybe we already are dead and our essence keeps us in these dream filled lives that we go through everyday. i know i dont explain it very well but you never know. maybe this all is just a collection of thoughts and memories from millions of people are we are all living in a dream that we only leave when our true selves finally wake up. |

as the topic suggests i have lost all faith in the christian god and all the things in that area. long story short i believed for a long time growing up until i started to get old enough to question things and by asking some of them was told a good christian doesnt ask that they just believe. i was like i'm sorry but i have a brain and i feel that every question has an answer somewhere. so i started to look elsewhere and for a brief time started down the path down into devil worshiping because i found a place where you could ask without fear of being looked down upon. on that note i will say was a brief stay that stuff freaked me out lol. however i was left once again alone with no answers and no where to turn but my own knowledge and thats when i began to look more into the past. i started to read into druids and wicca and became interested but in my area the church is to strong and most things in this area are kept out groups and even reading materal is next to none. everything i have done has been through online stuff but i would like to find people who know about these areas to sit and listen to and learn what they know and perhaps find myself again. my mother takes it hard that i dont go to church and all that and the thing is i can answer the questions they ask and i know the "good book" enough but i also dont believe in it any more. besides didnt christ say look and ye shall find knock and the door shall be opened? anyway i use that to get some to back off becuase i am trying to find myself and my spirtual way again and am just looking for help in trying to do so. i have looked at other religions and find things i like in many different ones but i still dont know what is really worth looking into anymore. so if anyone has thoughts or ideas let me know i just trying to regain part of myself. |

while i am not anything that you were seeking i would like to say i have a strong interest in learning about this and perhaps if others feel the same we could start to line and begin to educate others. just a thought. |

i would like to thank all of you for your kind words and advice. trust me when i say right now i really needed all that and to hear people give some uplifting advice brings a bit of hope to my life. to clear up some things i noticed i missed from before and give a little more insight to what going on. i not saying at my age i know what love is but i have been with her for over seven and a half years and i just feel complete with her. when we were apart i did feel less stressed out but i also felt i was missing apart of myself. it just didnt seem to hurt her as badly as it did myself and when she called saying she loved me and couldnt stand to be apart i thought that would be the start on a road of healing and at first it did but then things went from talking to "other" things (i keep it clean lol) and we quit talking about it even when i wanted to there was always something to change the subject with and so things just went back the way they were. what really been bugging me is now she says i to lazy and whatnot because i cant drop everything i am doing every time she needs something that it my fault things are not getting done and that if i really loved her i would just do what she asked. well with a father who not aloud to drive when he needs stuff like a ride or whatnot i sorry that has to come first. my father and i have more of a friendship then a father/son thing it just seems to work better that way. granted he still does the day stuff but we just hang out like buddies and i enjoy that. her father on the other hand cheated on her mother and let them know the day she turned 18 and it been a struggle ever since. now i loved her mom like she was my own but lately it the same thing i get from her is i worthless because i cant do this or that. i am struggleing with finding work and it twice as hard because no one wants a college student since school takes up so much time so ontop of that and her i have my own money issues that are not being solved and no one seems to care how hard it is to want to contiune my education and do something with my life. gratned i could lie and not tell someone but i find that in the long run that burns bridges i might need at a latter date. or my mother has said not to go back and get a good job and pay off my loans and then go back but i know if i do that i'll never go back i'll get stuck in the cycle of work and that will be that. i just dont know i just so bloody tired of all this and i been doing so well as far as depression goes and i was alloud to go off the meds but with the way things are now i dont know if i gonna last much longer. personally i wish i lived back in the 16-18 century where things were a little more simpler and you didnt need to be super smart to make a living and have something. but we cant do that we are stuck in this time forced to spent money we dont have to get a paper that may or may not really help you get a good job in order to pay off what you owe and it just a bad cycle that you cant get out of. all i can think of is thank god i dont drink or do drugs cause if that were going on i dont think i would be here. i just want something to go right so i can get my life going again and do what i know i must. |

hey all it been a long long time since i have been able to post anything here but i finally at a huge rock in my life and i just lost on what i should do. to start off my father had a heart attack (thankfully a small one if there really is such a thing) at the start of the month which took me away from home, work, and that who i love. mostly at first everything was ok and i was able to return home withen a couple days in order to clean things up for my fathers return. long story short on that he doing ok still weak and not aloud to do much but he'll live. however things with my lover have gone from bad to worse this summer and i just dont know what i want to do anyone. we had a small seperation back in may where she felt she didnt love me anymore but after being apart she was like oh i love you and just cant be without you, ya know the usually stuff you would think to hear if you really love a person. so things kinda went back to the way they were before which still sucked because we dont communicate very well to begin with. now i have been seeing someone about depression and have been trying to make myself a better person but she sees that as being weak and not able to deal with real life so she hates me for doing that but i know it is the best for me in order to be a better person and get my life back under control. it been up and down ever since then but lately everything i do it wrong. looking for work isnt good enough because i not good enough for anything and all i can do is sit around and play on my computer. basically she rips me apart with how i basically worthless to other people and the only time i any good is when i follow her and do everything she says without question. as long as i am a good little pack mule then everything is ok but the moment i show a little backbone and decide to think for myself i nothing to her and worthless to everyone. i dont know i guess i let her rule my life for to long and just got so used to being told what i can and cant do but during that time where we were apart i felt free to do what i wanted for once. the problem is i do love her and i know deep inside i would do anything to keep her and i think that could be where my problem is i willing to let her control me. i just dont know anymore and lately things have only gottne worse not only with her and i but i have been unable to find work anywhere since i intend to return to college in the fall and i just running out of rope to hold on to. i guess i feel more open for advice from everyone here since no one really knows me i just get honest answers but i need something before my rope finally breaks. please let me know what any of you think   |

while i find nothing wrong with anyone who wants to study the old ways and become a druid that site to me just makes me sick. that is something stuiped and should never be done. i think someone looking for his 5 minutes of fame and doesnt care what kind of lable he puts on a group of people. this is how people are misinformed and get the idea that druids think nothing but sex sex sex and then when there is a group that wants to meet and they take the study to heart you'll find a bunch of other people protesting near by calling them perverts and sex addicts. in the end you reap what you sow and i know that guy will get what he deserves in the end. to all the faithful and true i tip my hat to you and wish i had your courage to follow something i have a interest in.  |

This is just a little something to see who you think would be a good leader and i mean absolutely anyone in the world even if you think it is yourself. if i may steal a line from lewis black lets elect a dead president! his idea was to bring back good old ronold reg (however you spell his last name sorry i really cant spell lol) again that just what he thought maybe as a joke but who knows might make some other countires back off or scare them away because we are so crazy we just elected a dead person to run our country. i for one thought something funny like robin williams and sure enough they do a movie with him running for president but i mean the real robin williams not just an actor playing a part for some reason i think he a mellow person who would do things in the best interest of the common person not just the rich. again those are just some of my thoughts i would like to see what the rest of you think so post away. |

i know i just kinda jumping in here but i read something a few weeks ago that has really got me thinking. a guy i think in CA who has not commited a sex crime of any kind has asked to be put on the list and have restrictions put on him like how far away from schools and what not where children gather. now the main thing is he has never done anything (or at least been caught) but he feels he is a preditor and needs to have kids kept away from him. now the question is if he has never done something and i mean honestly never done anything then what is the correst answer to this? i sure he has been looked into and that an ongoing investagation is going on but if he is clean should he be put onto the list with criminals? now i had read they inforced harsh restirctions on him like the worst i guess you can have but a judge overruled them and lowered them slightly but he still cant go withen X feet of schools, parks, etc. so does this make him a better person then those who have been caught and are trying to fix theirs lives or is he just as bad as those who have been caught and gone through the system? just somthing else to make everyone think. |

how could you say that? transformers was something every child should have seen growing up. it was a show that i think will help a child grow and learn the difference between good and evil and the willingness to give it all even your life in order to protect your people. (ya i know sounds childish but it does work in the end) to be honest the movie was very well thought out it took a different form then i thought but it was still good. the other question i would ask is did your cihld watch the movie? if they loved it as a child i would hope they still remember it and would want to see it as an action movie. just wondering why the sudden turn off even if it was a childhood thing it is still alive and the fan base i think is growing by leaps and bounds. |

i find this interesting no one is going for either of the big parties! now the question is do we really think the other parties really have enough of a shot to win the wihte house? while i tihnk they can get a good chunk in the end i afraid it will only take away form other people and let some other jack off in... however i have not been following this as closely as i should be but i will start to pick up as the year comes to an end and they really start to pick up on the BS. although if it goes like last time it wont matter who we vote for since it was bought (by the devil) anyway and we just vote for nothing. if anyone has ever listened to lewis black i gonna steal a line from him. lets elect a dead president! no for real a dead person like former president nixon. see people hate us and bush such a wuss that they willing to fight against us where when nixon was in office he scared everyone including us. lol just a thought gives ya something else to think about lol. lets keep this topic live and see what more people think. |
