Everyone had a dream at one time or another. Many people put them aside as they get older for fear of being thought silly or unpractical. If you had enough money, confidence, ability and anything else you might need, what would you do? Which people, plights, situations move you the most? If you could help [...]

Top stuff Rob. Your definition of the conscious thought and stress has really hit a chord with me. Looking forward to the next part. Cheers!

VERY, very interesting. I think this is as close to an accurate assessment that I’ve heard. Thanks!

Rob you are a wise man, and I wish that everyone could see how you do. I strongly agree everyone is equal, but why is it that society, with TV and what not, tells us how we should be? Why should anyone have to conform to be welcomed? I won’t lie. I’ve been searching for true happiness for a long time now, and I see just one thing in my way. Everyone's greed. To me it seems that I have to better other peoples’ lives before I can better my own, meaning I have to satisfy someone's greed before I can live how I want to live (no I don’t need money to live, I need money to live legally). Would you say that’s accurate? Which book was it that you read? It sounds fascinating, I’d love to pick it up. Maybe I‘m just tired but I don’t think the title was mentioned. Very interesting post, made me consider some things about the markets (ex: in hindsight, yr are absolutely right: how could we NOT have been at the top when we have 60 yr mortgages?). Gonna have to file what I’ve learned here today for later use for when the next bubble invariably forms… I know its true from life’s experiences. It came about exactly as you mention – My 1st impression of this man was ‘WOW’ – can this be real? And of course it wasn’t but I didn’t learn until 14 months later. He WAS a wife cheating, wife beating, druggie – and of course, treated me the same. You can’t change your nature. The truth came out – sooner or later it always does. Thanks for the great article!

Wise words, and more than that, because it really works! (has practical benefits). In the past, “forgive” had the negative connotation for me that you mention, but I read an article, by Rajneesh/Osho I think, in which he said something to this effect: To forgive is not something that you can “do”; Forgiveness happens when you realize there is nothing to “forgive”.

Is Letting Go To Allow Suffering?
May 19, 2008Thanks to those people who took the time to comment after reading the Happiness 2.0 Report. Brian asked some questions that I think we all struggle with from time to time. I’m going to address the first one here and follow on with the second.
