It doesn't make sense at all. But as He says, "you will find me when you seek with all your heart." "...to the world, foolishness, but to them that believe, it is the power of salvation..."

I am still uncertain as to how to reconcile what I believe personally to be absolutes as to the nature and person of God, and how to accept that somebody elses absolutes can be diametrically opposed...

Yeah, you can take some book that your particular sect has as its gospel, but then it only works by denying the existence of the God that the guy on the other side of the world has. That whole concept of "My God's righter than yours" goes against eveything that I understand God to be......and for me, part of what is the Great Mystery is that perhaps God is Black, a Woman, and speaks languages I don't understand.


The great thing (and probably the GREATEST thing) about Him/Her/It, is that my absolute truth can ben the exact opposite of someone else's absolute truth, and yet, ther is absolutely no reason at all why we can't be both right at the same time.

I don't remember, bu someone once said "If I were God, I'd be really pissed at people each other in my name when all I ever asked was for them to love each other"

As for the original question, yes I'm happy. Of course I'd be more happy without my loaded student credit margin, but hey, I wanted to party and live like a king while working minimum wages, now I have to pay.

If you ask what make me happy specificaly today: I just received my Photographer bussiness cards (with a picture of my sexy best friend on it) and they are SENSATIONNAL! Can't wait to start handing them to people all over the place.

I think a job that i love is a big part of enjoying life. being a self employed photographer is great and I don't think i could ever go back to working for someone again. Having the freedom to decide my day and work how I want creates a 0 stress job that is very fun. the down side - i could handle being around more people in an average day... perhaps i need to work in a collective or something.

Happy? Of course I'm happy. Had cancer 4 years ago, all clear so far. motherlee had cancer last year, so far all clear. We have 4 grown kids and 11 grandchildren. I have a Nikon and the boss gets hers as soon as they are available, it's all paid for.

Just found out from Nikon that I am now a member of The Professional User Scheme.

Yep, I'm happy!!

I can identify - when your life is threatened (cancer), you tend to start to see the important things a bit more clearly.
I am a 9 year cancer survivor, and I'd have to say the sweet is even sweeter.

Yep. I don't care about the mundane daily things anymore. We do what we want to do, no matter how daft it seems. If we want to sit on a freezing beach eating icecream, we do it. Work gets in the way of what we want to do, but we still have to have a wage coming in, but if I was offered a job that paid less, but suited my ideas of the life I want, then so be it. People get too tied up with material gains, instead of living their lives the way they want to.
