I think we are affected by our environment but not molded by it. Of course what we are comes from where we come from, but WE have to make the ultimate choice of taking what we want and leaving everything else.

maybe there is some inbuilt genetic "you". I dont know.
But at least 90% of who you are is a result of you're unique set of experiences & how you interpret them. Example; 300 years ago in england, the ideal woman was plump, white & submissive. Now the ideal woman (generalising here) is tanned, skinny & independant. Thus, we can't even make out own ideals! dosen't that piss you off!?
SO...
if you're identity is the result of you're conditioning, then the only way to truly "be yourself" is to be selective in you're conditioning.

I have this screen reading software called, Jaws. It reads everything on the screen, and it also tells me which keys I'm pressing in order for me to do my own tiping, instead of using Dragon Natural or having somebody tipe for me. Dragon Natural is a voice recognission program that can work properly if you have a mike, and also if you spend at least twenty hours learning how to use the program. The voice recognission part of it takes a while for someone to get used to, and the same goes for the program as well. I don't mind explaining how I can utalize a computer in my own way, no offence has been taken. If you're still wondering about stuff feel free to ask questions. Anyways... I'm going to fire up a bowl... laters.

I have a similar program for my computer. However, I just have double-vision and took a typing course in 10th grade. :smokin:

My beliefs stem from my own seeking and my own personal experiences.
I came to a point in my life where I was seeking direction. I was looking for something to make me feel my life had more meaning than work eat sleep fuck work eat sleep smoke fuck etc. I started to read a lot about various spiritual paths, I challenged myself on what my heart said when I asked it " what the fuck is the purpose of all this bullshit? Why the FUCK should I keep on keepin on in this society that I HATE and apparently hates me back?!"
And I sat and wrote and wrote and wrote. My hand moved, words appeared on the page and I was intrigued. These words did not come from me. I did not compose these things in my mind.
When I read what was before me on the page I was awe struck.
I read things that opened my mind, my heart and forced me to re examine my perceptions. Things were re-woken within me. Feelings and knowledge rushed forward like a tidal wave and I knew again that I had a purpose. I began to explore this 'new' perspective I had.
I compared my feelings and thought against what I could see before me.
Never being one to trust what my eyes showed me , I dug deeper, and awake things within me that had been sleeping for too long.
It was like a sudden slap in the face. I remembered. I unlearned what had been forced into my mind from years of societal programming and I began to trust those voices again that I had doubted for so long.
And over the years, the things that I experienced expanded my awareness to allow me to acceot things that most people ignore.
My beliefs are all 100% a result of things I have experienced personally. nothing came from a book or someoe elses direction.
I gained faith , faith that if the things that I knew to be real now were foreign and 'impossible' to me before then there must be more.
And through my faith...my refusal to disregard any posssiblilty, came more and more experiences that reinforced my confidance that I waked the right path for me. As i accepted each new possibility I experienced things that solidified the belief that 'yes this too is possible'
My beliefs are a result of having faith that anything is possible when you remove restrictions in your mind that blind you to change and evolution.
Each time I removed a roadblock I experienced something that i could never have experienced prior.
So, to end my ramble , my beliefs are a result of blind faith reinforced by personal experience.
I know that what I believe is true because I have 'been ther done that'

thanks for listening

peace.

Yeah, seriously, you didn't even have the slightest notion to focus yourself on the Almighty Booger of the Anus? What ignorance!
