[...] Why Do We Need Should? What was good is the fact that I have a fantastic support network. The friends I have come to acknowledge as brothers force-fed me with their ideas, and frankly, if I hadn’t trusted them and was desperate enough, I wouldn’t have listened. [...]

Thank you, Bridgette. I have been away from this site for close to two weeks, as I am traveling through the USA. But it has been a pleasant and quiet time for me.

I’ll have to take a look at Pavlina’s forum. I have not been there for awhile now.

Thanks for your comments.

I too, found you on Steve P forum, and also found this and other writings fasinating.

If it were me ten years ago, I would have listened, then gone back to whatever way of living I followed at that time.

I suppose if one is really free from a problem, then the problem has let go of them, and not the other way around. Question, question, question! An unquestioned thought it the most dangerous thing in this world.

Agreed. Even simply in the pragmatic sense of freedom from worry this is a very important realisation to make. I’m really curious to know how I’d react to reading this if I hadn’t already been through the thought process myself. I.e., would the me of 10 years ago react just as strongly as the imaginary italicised person?

Great essay, Takuin.

PS: I found you via Steve Pavlina’s forums.

Thank you, Jacob. I am glad that you have enjoyed it thus far.

The kind of things I write about here are not necessarily popular. I don’t mean to say that it is looked upon negatively, because it isn’t. It is just that topics such as these are not the kind of things that people google. So when I get some comments, either good or bad, it is wonderful. I am surprised that people can find me. Haha.

Thanks for spending time here.

Hi Takuin,

Great post! Very clearly written – really makes a lot of sense.

I’ve really enjoyed checking your blog out over the last couple of days – just wanted to let you know!
