Usually, look back at old posts.

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

I go wandering through the dank back alleyways of Forumpool and find dusty old threads that no one has heard from since Nineteen Hundred And Eighty-Five and wake them up. 

It happens quite often on the ‘graveyard’ shift down here; I catch up on old threads then go away and do something else – no website is active and interesting all the time.

Is that called “getting a life”?  🙂

Do certain smileys make you think of particular users? 

(And no, you’re not allowed to say they all make you think of me.) 

ahdn_paul_06  makes me think of @Starr Shine? 

a-hard-days-night-paul-7 makes me think of @Ahhh Girl 

ahdn_george_08  and ahdn_paul_02 put me in mind of @AppleScruffJunior 

ahdn_george_01 = @Joe, obviously. 😀

Get out of the road. Immediately. I don’t care if anyone’s watching me, it’s just getting run down by cars that bothers me. 

After, and only after, that piece of important business would I wonder where the heck I was, and how was I to get home.

Do you know who you are/have you found “your””self”? When did you realize who you are? Do you recall the process or stages of discovery? Are you still discovering?

Can you point to any definitive moments in your life that caused big changes in your attitudes, beliefs, and/or behavior?

Do you think it is a silly exercise to think about who you are? Should people just go about their daily lives and not ponder these kinds of questions?

I suspect that my answering those questions might make the most boring autobiography that anyone has seen.

I don’t think it is a silly exercise, I do like to think about my attitudes and behaviour and consider my impact on others. I think the ‘self’ is a bundle of beliefs and experiences that act differently in different situations. My definitive moment was coming to the conclusion that as far as I am concerned – if God exists I don’t much care for the state he (she / it) has left the world in. So I try to do my bit to make it a better place – maybe that’s what he (she / it) wanted all along.

It’s never a silly exercise. Introspection can change your world, because in a large sense it is your world. If you’re lucky, events can change your self-habits, and just being aware that your reactions are something that you’ve essentially invented for yourself or simply taken on from others is helpful.
People like to say you should believe in something bigger than yourself. If there’s no self, what is bigger? a-hard-days-night-george-9

1. I think so 2. No idea 3. Nope 4. Of course

Ummm…

Not at all. On the contrary, it’s a very good thing to try and know oneself, inside out, because if you don’t know yourself, than how are you to know anyone else? ahdn_paul_01

Just be my self and be your self and I think it’s the best way to realize who you are and who we are
