Dont count...

Dont judge your life by the things that you do not have. You will always be unhappy and there is always something that you dont have. To be happy just think about all that you do have.

A theory...

Think of it like who you are is not the real you. Its an expression of something else somewhere else. Like your shadow on a wall or your face in a mirror. You could not verywell open a window with your shadow, just the same way you cannot move an object with your mind. You are not here and unless you make what is here interact with the environment around it. Oh sure you could interact with something there and change things here but the result would not be what you expect it to be because you only know what is here not what is there. That is why when you die you can interact with what is here because you all back there. Once you have been here you can come back but from here you cannot go back there because you have never been there. It would be like trying to find an obscure address in New York from space. You cant see New York but you know its there let alone the address of somewhere you have never been. Yes I am expressing this sorta how I am thinking of it. Please comment and let me know what you think.
