OT. Great Illusion Reading

blue_eyes53813 · 10-14-2006, 01:42 AM

I came across this site.. It is very very very long. I saved it to my favorites and go back and read it periodically... It really makes you think about your purpose in life and and the paths we take in life and the mistakes that we all make and may lead us down the wrong paths.

Have you all thought about life in general and why we are here? I see people on here type about illnesses and bad things happening in your life.Is it a punishment from above for some reason? I know we all make mistake and go through hard time in life... The test of life seems crazy.

Have you ever thought when you see a homeless person on the streets asking for money or in need.. Is it a test from above?

This site really hits home... Not to mention the beautiful ocean pictures

I hope you like it... It may take days to read through... Click on the path/step pictures at the bottom of each page..

Great link. Thanks!

One thing I have learned in life is that there is only one thing you can truly control. Yourself. How you act, how you feel. No matter where you go there you are is one of my favorite sayings. So keep that in mind. We all create our own environment. We have the control. You just have to have the strenght to take the control.
