If at first you don't succeed... then skydiving is probably not for you :P
Sometimes I blog things

Of course I'm sane.  When trees start talking to me, I don't talk back.

Life is about learning whatever you can from whatever experience you get

Kia Ora Empty,

Sadly some people very rarely learn from their mistakes, and so it would seem are prone to repeat them again and again...

I look at the universe and how incredibly vast it is and how insignificantly small we are and it makes me wonder how completely irrelevant life is. If humanity were to die out tomorrow, the universe would not care. The world would not care. Everything would go on as though we never even existed. It seems to me that everything we deem important is only so because we need it to be, not because it actually is.

To me, we're just a bunch of apes on a rock flying through space trying to get by as best we can and for me, I figure I might as well enjoy myself while I'm here =)

Kia Ora Adelkhf,

In other words..."Life is what one makes of it !" I like the way you put it, you deserve a rep  :)

Keep on keeping on enjoying life :)

Life is like a block of cheese. If you don't take a bite soon, it will eventually rot, and then you'll have an icky mess to clean up.  :P

Kia Ora Diana,

::) Well actually the answer will never end with two [2] so the real answer to everything is  'not two [2]'... ;)

But everything needs an opposite. Everything is a dipole, only changed to different scales. Therefore, the meaning of life must be an even number ending in two.  :P

Kia Ora Diana,

"Form 'is' Emptiness-Emptiness 'is' Form !" That's physics in a nutshell...Well physics according to Zenda's warped sense of reality that is  ;)  ;D

Kia Ora Pica,

::) Karma...Don't you just love the universal law of cause-condition-effect...

Life is but a sequence of karmic events...For this to happen-That 'must' happen-And for that 'to' happen-This 'must' happen !   

For every action there's a reaction...And for every 'non' action there's 'also' a reaction... Do 'nothing' and everything that needs to be done is done, and that's another paradox of 'life' ...

@DianaP

Kia Ora

My warped understanding of life by numbers...

One [1] will always leave room for more to be added, three plus [3+] means there is already more added, 'not' two [ whole ]= encompasses Every-thing and No-thing= All that there is and will ever be =not two...

At school I was never any good at maths so I took the lazy easy way out  ;)

I had a discrete math class where we had to prove that some infinities were larger than others.  I don't remember how it worked now, but  I think it made sense at the time...

That's some old bullspit!  :P

Infinity can't be quantified since it goes on forever.  :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

It is a series of questions that prompt other questions: answers are unimportant.

Full retraction in Three... Two... One...

[ ... i actually believe the above, after a fashion - or rather adhere to the belief that knowledge is too subjective to be of any use to anyone other than the bearer... which creates a bit of a conundrum when suggesting that the idea has any merit...]
I ain't scared... I just don't want to mess up my hair.

Bit too much for my simple mind to wrap itself around[I get an headache and break out in a cold sweat just thinking about it]  ;), but EmSchuma, does have a point...
