In my opinion, the journey of finding yourself is an everyday thing.  Each day we question the things we enjoy, the choices we make, and the future ahead.\n\nFinding one self never does end, since we constantly change.  At one point in my life, I may wish to be a veterinarian...  5 years later, I may have a very strong desire to be a basketball coach.  But careers are just one aspect of ourselves.\n\nTo me, really knowing yourself is understanding your strengths and weaknesses..  knowing how to use those to your advantage.  \n\nHonestly dealing with the issues that bother you, and not completely forgetting about them -- but being able to come to terms..   at least finding peace through the pain.\n\nIf I were to believe I truly knew myself, I would be secure in my thoughts, actions, and self.  I would be able to overcome obstacles by knowing how to best approach them.  I would have the ability to be a strong, vital person.  \n\nWe can all hope... can we not?  :)

What's missing is a life that nourishes the individual you were when you were single and childless. When you cannot live your interests, you become trapped in a life you don't want because of the demands and obligations required of you - i.e., EVERYONE expects and wants YOU to SERVE THEIR INTERESTS.\n\nYou have to create your own world, private time, and special place that you can thrive in, that allows you to live your interests without neglecting your responsibilities.\n\nTo do this, get some 3x5 cards; on each card create a 10 minute chunk of time (6 cards equals 1 hour; 24 sets of 6 cards equals 144 cards for 24 hours).\n\nRecord on each card how you use your time. Determine how you use your time each hour for a full day. Repeat for seven days.\n\n(My time is up but I will return later to finish this).\n\nI'm back.\n\nCorrection: Repeat for 21 days (it takes 21 days to form a new habit, you will see a pattern in your routine when you reread your 21-day journal.\n\nYou can use a notebook pad as an alternative to 3x5 cards. And/or use a digital audio recorder to speak what you would write. The objective here is for you to become conscious of how you spend your time.\n\nStress equals conflict. Eliminate the conflict to eliminate the stress. If the conflict comes from being a mother of two (you can't eliminate the children), then the conflict most likely comes from the possibility that "their existence" has short-circuited your individual development (i.e., you can't do the things you wanted to do before motherhood, and now you feel trapped in a life you didn't plan for and/or no longer want - you feel that by the time the children are all grown up, your productive years will have passed you by).\n\nIf my assessment is correct, if you could do it all over again, knowing what you know now, you would have finished school, traveled, and would have done some other things while you were single and had the time, AND THEN you would have had children.\n\nRemember this principle (say it to yourself):\n\nEvery PRESENT action IS the FUTURE I create.\n\nWhat you do or don't do today shapes your tommorrow. What you don't realize is that you have always created your tommorrows unconsciously; AND that you can CONSCIOUSLY CREATE your tommorrow today.\n\nYou are the sum of your experience. Every past action shaped todays reality. If you were conscious of this principle in the past, you would have consciously chose what your life would look like today (who knows, your children may have not been in the picture, BUT if they would have been in the picture, it would have been by "conscious" choice).\n\nNow looking back over your past, consciously see what actions shaped todays reality. The 3x5 card concept is to mentally see and slow down time, and become aware of the present moment - because it is only in the present moment that you have the power to consciously create your desired future reality.\n\nOnce you record 21 days worth of time, review it, and look for patterns of behavior that shaped your environment. What you want to realize is HOW the environment is created, and WHAT causes the stress. Once you understand the source of the stress, you can consciously eliminate the source of the stress to eliminate the stress.\n\nFor example, if you cannot find time to do things for yourself because of a lack of a Time and Activity Management System, then you will know that you need to create such a system that structures and harmonizes all activities to the flow of your avaialable time (which you prioritize and create appointments for - i.e., make appointments for everything (especially the things you love), because appointed tasks always get done, unappointed tasks NEVER get done).\n\nBecause you can consciously create the future, define and create your ideal future environment, and determine what steps it will take to literally realize it, and then act on it.

This was a belief of Socrates the great philospher.  For questions of this sort, Socrates raises a serious dilemma: how can we ever learn what we do not know? Either we already know what we are looking for, in which case we don't need to look, or we don't know what we're looking for, in which case we wouldn't recognize it if we found it. \n\nThe paradox of knowledge is that, in the most fundamental questions about our own nature and function, it seems impossible for us to learn anything. The only escape, Socrates proposed, is to acknowledge that we already know what we need to know. This is the doctrine of recollection, Plato's conviction that our most basic knowledge comes when we bring back to mind our acquaintance with eternal realities during a previous existence of the soul. \n\nThe example offered is in the discovery of an irrational number, the square root of 2. Socrates leads an uneducated boy through the sophisticated geometrical demonstration with careful questions, showing that the boy somehow already knows the correct answers on his own. All of us have had the experience (usually in mathematical contexts, Plato believed) of suddenly realizing the truth of something of which we had been unaware, and it does often feel as if we are not really discovering something entirely new but rather merely remembering something we already knew. Such experiences lend some plausibility to Plato's claim that recollection may be the source of our true opinions about the most fundamental features of reality. What is more, this doctrine provides an explanation of the effectiveness of Socratic method: the goal is not to convey new information but rather to elicit awareness of something that an individual already knows.  Hope this helps!

It has been said that all knowledge rests upon and arises out of an epistemological matrix that of itself forms the very context of comprehension, thus, all information systems require a comprehension of the nature of consciousness to reach their full potential.\n\nSo, the witness of any mentally selected event is thus simultansously both content and context and therefore trapped in the epistemological dilemna of duality itself - the mind can only 'know about' rather than truly comprehend essence, which is a nonverbal realization in which consciousness and essence are united as One. \n\nOur Soul is capable of so much more than we often imagine, as it is the essence and knows the essence - God within - and is where consciousness is superconsciousness. We can be exceptional liars to ourselves, often over-riding what our Soul tells us in the form of essence - essence that endures.\n\nTo believe we can, with simply our human consciousness, or with some method for tracking "holodynes" and manipulating them in some structured manner will give us the ability to actually discern a 'cause' of anything at all is really a grand dilusion and "pomposity of egotism".\n\nI agree that the infinite context of all that exists and of all possibility is obviously God. \n\nSo knowing God, by consciously connecting with our own Soul, knowing that God is Love, we find our way. And if we have no doubts, and we seek quidance from the "Great Spirit", we ask the right questions and make the right requests. And what we are to know will be shown to us that seek it diligently with all our hearts.

This all leads back once again to mans primitive state...the human mind in general does not allow us to fully understand "being" to reach that plateau we must rid ourselves of primitive thoughts ..part being..the only way we learn as simple humans is through pain and suffering until we progress past the constant circle we follow..only through meditation can one reach the goal ..which is to free oneself from the human body and mind and to become one with the universe ..to be everything..from the largest mass.. to the most infinitesimal particle ..to feel all the true love and happiness constantly flowing through the universe ..words can never describe the powerful feeling that comes..and you can never imagine until that very moment...to truly understand the universe and life itself .

1) We can never flee the misery that is within us.\n\nIt took me a long while to realize that I cannot escape myself.  Many moons ago, I had an ex-girlfriend tell me that I was looking for escape.  I agreed with her but I was not sure from what I was seeking escape.  Many moons later, in a hotel bar I sat drinking gin with a woman I met that weekend.  As the night progressed we began waxing philosophical about our lives.  After having drank enough to clear my mind, I had an epiphany about my own life, which I managed to slur in her ear: "You cannot escape yourself.  No matter where you run you are still there."  It was then that I realized what I had been trying to escape was something internal to myself, a melancholic spirit.  I no longer try to escape that part of me, for that spirit has been, remains today, and will continue to be part of who I am.

1. Strictly speaking, for a human being there is no other practice than this practice. There is no other way of life than this way of life. Zen practice is the direct expression of our true nature. Shunryu Suzuki-roshi (1905-71) \n\n2. The formless body of complete illumination of the nature of awareness; Don't use knowledge and views, misconstruing far and near. If thoughts vary, you're blind to the profound essence; If the mind differs, you're not close to the path. When feelings discriminate myriad things, they submerge the present situation; When consciousness perceives many aspects, you lose the original reality. If you can understand clearly from such sayings, Clearly you're the man of before, without any concern. Sozan Honjaku [Ts'ao-shan Pen-chi] (840-901) \n\n3. Just avoid seeking from others, Or you will be far estranged from yourself. I now go on alone; I meet Him everywhere - He is now just I, but I now am not He: One must understand in this way In order to unite with thusness. Tozan Ryokai [Tung-shan Liang-chieh] (807-869) \n\n4. Fellow learners! To achieve Buddhahood there is no need for cultivation. Just carry on an ordinary task without any attachments. Release your bowels and water, wear your clothes, eat your meals. When you are tired, lie down. The fool will laugh at you, but the wise man will understand. Rinzai [Lin-chi I-hsuan] (?-866)\n\n5. In the universe there is not a spot of land as small as a mustard seed where I have not sacrificed my life or have not buried my bones. Sakyamuni Buddha (c. 563-483 B.C.) \n\n6. Even when then bamboos are growing thick, they do not obstruct the running stream. \n\n7. The Perfect Way knows no difficulties Except that it refuses to make preferences; Only when freed from hate and love, It reveals itself fully and without disguise; A tenth of an inch's difference, And heaven and earth are set apart; If you wish to see it before your own eyes, Have no fixed thoughts either for or against it. \n\n8.  I asked God for strength, that I might achieve, I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey ... I asked for health, that I might do greater things, I was given infirmity, that I might do better things ... I asked for riches, that I might be happy, I was given poverty, that I might be wise ... I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men, I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God ... I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life, I was given life, that I might enjoy all things ... I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I had hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am among all men, most richly blessed - Anonymous\n\n9. Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also." (Matthew 5:38-39)\n\n10. If you judge people, you have no time to love them - Mother Teresa \n\n11. First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. Mahatma Gandhi \n\n12. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart. Hellen Keller \n\n13.  My advice to you is get married: if you find a good wife you'll be happy; if not, you'll become a philosopher. Socrates\n\n14. Impossible is a word only to be found in the dictionary of fools. Napoleon Bonaparte\n\n15. That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. \nNeil Armstrong \n\n16. History is a cyclic poem written by time upon the memories of man.

"the more you are, the more you can become, and the more you can become, the more you can yet be. the deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. therefore seek not to find who you are, seek to determine who you want to be." this is how i aim to live my life every day and by learning and searching i am becoming the best that i can be.

1) This was Socrates, and he made this statement at his trial.  (Read the "Apology" by Plato.  Or take my word for it.)  What he meant was something like, "If we just go through life never asking why, what's the point?"  He believed that to truly find "the good life" we need to be willing to ask hard questions and come to know the truth.\n\n2)  This is another statement that leads toward the same basic idea.  The speaker (I can't remember who said this one off the top of my head) is suggesting that we cannot be successful until we come to know who we really are--why we do what we do.  So examining one's self is the first step that we must take if we are to live successful lives.

If you think about it, all the experience we call life is actually our impression of external events, but filtered through the nervous system and the brain. Whatever you see, you see in your brain, also what you touch and what you taste and what you smell, it's all sensed through your brain. That's why taoists say that ultimately, nothing really has an intrinsic "existence", but it's all conveniently rendered into ideas by our thoughts. Anyway, besides that fact, I think there's a factor in your life that is not allowing you too feel 100%. When all your senses are in order you don't become aware of how life seems to be a construction of the psyche. I think you need to do things that make you more "grounded", and you'll get over that. Best thing to do is to spend some time outdoors. Go camping for a couple of nights, or just for a hike outdoors, or visit a farm, or ride a horse or something. All those things make your senses go more into survival mode, therefore relaxing all other anxieties. Just a thought.

You asked how to be happy and wholesome. Cool. You asked the question of non-Christian folk. OK. Lets remember what you didn't ask ... How to attain enlightenment, or get to heaven, or please any Deity. Fair enough. So we'll just stick to those first two things ... How to be happy ... Learn to be content with things as they are. That means to practice simple acceptance of other people, places, things, circumstances, etc. When you can accept things as they are you can live without trying to change those things or control those people or etc. You get the idea. While you're accepting others as they are in order to be happy don't forget to extend that same acceptance to your self. Its just a matter of letting everything be what it is, and knowing that its that way for a reason, and ... that's OK. So far ... HAPPINESS = ACCEPTANCE. Now, wholesome. A dictionary definition of "wholesome" is: #1; Promoting good health or wellbeing, healthful. #2; Improving the mind or morals. #3; Looking healty or vigorous. ... Whoa! You're not asking for much, are you? lol Its not that complicated, really. Give life a little thought. Keep your self and your space clean. Get some exercise. Try to eat a ballanced diet. Take a multiple vitamin daily. The health aspect isn't all that hard. That part about improving the mind and morals? A little more work. Improve the mind? Exercise it a little. Read. Watch a little History Channel. I think you know how to exercise your mind already. Just do it consistently. Your morals? That's simple. Simple ought never be confused with easy. Pick a moral code, and ... LIVE IT! Which one? Hey, not my call. Suggestions? Sure. Center your life on (and you don't have to be any of these things to use something they have that YOU find useful) ... The Wiccan Reede. The Jewish 10 Commandments. The "Golden Rule" of Jesus. Whatever. Picking is the easy part. That's simple. Now, living it, that's another story. Be consistant, but be loving with yourself when you make a mistake too. Just DON'T GIVE IT UP! BE CONSISTANT! And last, but not least, get out of self. You do that by helping others and being there for them. It also gives you the exercise you need in acceptance AND your morals. Neither of those work well in a void. ~ Peace & Blessings ~ ;-)

It is NOT a dumb question!  It is a great question!  Most people throw the word around like they know what it is, but few know the deeper meaning of it.  So thanks for asking that! You are a wise person asking wise questions! It is the purpose of human life to ask such questions and seek the answers!\n\nWhen one's life is focused transcendentally-spiritually on antimatter (not matter, material world) and one is offereing everything to God as a form of loving devotional service, one has found-redeveloped their ecstatic love-bliss in their intimate relationship with the Creator, then the laws of karma will NOT kick in anymore (but it might take a while for the karmic wheel to slow down til it stops, much like when we turn a ceiling fan off and it keeps going for a while longer.) \n\nKarma is "good begets good and bad begests bad," yes, but it is just the "law of cause and effect" following laws of matter and material nature when we are still MISIDENTIFIED as BODY, EGO, PERSONALITY, OUR LIFE STORY. When one realizes that they are not this body, nor this mind, nor this personality, nor this ego, nor this earthly story they (spirit-soul) ride in, that they are eternal spirit-soul serving time here in this temporary karmic story and temporary fleshy body-vehicle, when one is able to live, eat, breathe and act in loving devotional service to God in most conscious moments of awake time in a 24 hr day (and maybe non-awake time too) then KARMIC DEBT or EARNINGS cease-slow down and one can soon get off the karmic wheel that keeps turning eternally.  Once one REALLY figures out the differences between \n\nspirit and matter\neternal and temporary\ntruth and illusion\n\nthen one can work on their purification and get off the material karmic wheel and go Home (spiriutal world is the realm of ANTIMATTER). So would you rather play with matter or spirit? We will have to stay here and keep playing with matter until we are more interested and focused on antimatter-spiritual realm. Karma is the FRUIT (+ or - ) of playing with matter without God as #1 in our mind while we play with the matter) Our error is that we want to play the roles of enjoyer-controller of "our matter-material story" and do what we want and not play by His rules-laws.  So when we go against natural law, we get karmic payback requirements til we learn and can do otherwise the next time.
