    Uncomfortable in Your New Skin

    I agree with you, I think we have a true appearance as well. Perhaps even that we consistently look similar in some way shape or form. I've considered perhaps it's as a means for identification. Maybe if not for us, but others who maybe seek us out.

    Songs You Are Listening To -- Part II

    I've been obsessed with this song.

    Uncomfortable in Your New Skin

    I did something similar actually, I told my Mom I didn't look right. I don't know what I was expecting or what would've been truly okay by me.

    Uncomfortable in Your New Skin

    A lot of good points. I suppose I feel aimless at times, not knowing what to do half the time and what I want to do with my time here. I'm already 35, and still lost. You've given me a lot of food for thought.

    Uncomfortable in Your New Skin

    Thanks for this, I took it in. I think it's beyond the skin where I'm uncomfortable. I don't feel like I belong anywhere to be honest. I feel out of place. I want to feel like I belong somewhere for one in my life. Nothing about me seems to belong anywhere. And then I also just don't feel right...

    Uncomfortable in Your New Skin

    Maybe this has been talked about before, maybe it hasn't. It's kind of an uncomfortable question to ask, and I'm afraid it'll come off stupid or egocentric in some way but I want to ask. I want to know if I'm alone in this. When I was a little kid, the first time I saw an Eastern Asian person I...

    Japan

    I feel like I really needed to come forward and talk for some reason, but I admit I'm fearful of backlash. I was a famous person, and one with high regard to Japanese people. How would they feel of some Gaijin professing they're the reincarnation of someone of high regard to them? I have a...

    Japan

    Firstly, I want to thank you for your response. I've been at a pretty low place lately, and discussing my past somehow can always bring me peace. I came here to try and talk it out and it felt sort of like I'd hit a dead end because sadly this forum is slowing down. I didn't know how much my...

    Do you think time is speeding up?

    I know I don't count at a different pace because of who taught me to do it. It was a gym teacher of mine, and he let me hold a stop watch and showed me how as I said it a second passed. I learned the pace as I watched the stop watch. It was part of our track & field day, and I was helping this...

    I had a nap today actually, and dreamt about her. I can't share what I saw here. But I know now she's someone that meant a lot to me.

    Yes I was thinking something of the sort as well. It's possible her and I were of completely different classes. I'm unsure if I was higher class or she was. I can't say. I need to see more to be sure, but we shouldn't have been together, but were anyway.

    I was thinking about this woman, trying to meditate on this memory and focus on her face, thinking of how I knew her, who she was. Sadly, I didn't get an answer I'd liked to have gotten but have a strange feeling of knowing I wasn't supposed to be with her? Perhaps even seen with her. It's a...

    Do you think time is speeding up?

    Well that's intriguing. Here, I can just say about half of it and a second has already passed.

    Dying and Death

    That's a good way to look at it, thank you.

    Do you think time is speeding up?

    Heh I'm gonna sound maybe a bit looney but I don't care. When I was a kid I was always taught 1 second counted by the time you can say "one Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi...." it doesn't now. It's quicker, one second counts before you're done. It's about half the time. So...

    Dying and Death

    Interesting topic, I'm in my 30s and experienced a lot of death lately. I lost my Mom a few years ago and have witnessed several scares lately with loved ones. I have severe thanataphobia, even though I believe in reincarnation. I have seen glimpses of a life after this one, and can sense when...

    Well it made me laugh, kind of a sense of "you didn't learn from last time" lol

    Very Sad to See the Board Fading Away

    Heh well, I can start talking a lot. Lol I have a lot going on in my life right now, so it could be a good escape.

    Thanks, I'll be sure to keep everyone posted here. I agree with you that the woman seems to be the importance here, because I find myself wondering about her often. It also felt like time stopped in a way when I saw her. I'm glad you like the image, I'm quite fond of it myself. :)
