How would the world be if Steve Jobs is still alive?
I guess there would be much more innovation in the Apple products which world is much better off with the new technology. Steve would have been much more vocal about privacy.World would be happy to watch his keynotes.On a whole, I hope world would be a better place, if Steve is alive.
Do you ever feel that you don't want to live in this world anymore?
You know the worst part about feeling helpless to change the world for the better, it makes you give up and become part of the very thing you hate.Through drug addiction, I didn't really interact with the world for nearly 15 years. I was a mere passive observer and didn't care one way or another if WW3 happened. No, in fact I welcomed Armageddon as I thought humanity had had it's time and I still believe we are destined to destroy ourselves.I'm happier than I've ever been in my life. I have money to survive and sometimes even live it up. I have a fiance whom I adore and is the only person I feel truly ‘gets me'. My parents are still alive, even though both of them are apart and don't really like each other.In the end, most people only worry about themselves and their nearest and dearest and that's what I do. I still worry about the state of the world and what my purpose is in it (if there is one). I'll never cure cancer, I'll never develop FTL travel so we can infect the rest of the universe, I will never be remembered for anything of note and I'm okay with that.We are all just living out our lives and waiting to die. Just have a little fun along the way and see life as some absurd experiment of a greater power we could never comprehend.
I have nothing to offer the world, my life is worthless!!?
I've always been a really bad person. I never had empathy for people around me. When something bad happens to someone, I am indifferent, I'm glad that they're suffering. That sounds really bad but it's true. I am never satisfied with anything, I always want what someone else has. I am a jealous person. I could never keep friends with other girls or guys because I always thought people were so much better than me. They were better looking, smarter, funnier, everybody liked them and nobody liked me. I was always so insecure and I never had confidence in myself. I just saw myself as fundamentally inadequate and worthless. I've always been embarrassed of myself, especially my skinny, unfeminine body, I have a lanky boy's body, seriously. I tended to stare a lot and I have a really big nose, it reminds me of a dog's nose. People would yell at me "quit staring!" and ever since then I find it impossible to look anyone in the eye. I can't look at people period. Ever since my elementary days, I would come home, sit in my room and stare at the four walls and pretty much wait for supper to be ready. After supper, i would change into my pajamas and turn my lights off and try to go to sleep. I could never fall asleep though because of the guilty pain in my stomach and I would cry in bed for hours upon hours. I hate myself for who I am because it's so obvious that no one wants me around and everyone hates me. Nobody could stand me from the time I was born. Out of my brother and sister, I am definitely the bad apple and the worst out of my parents three children.
Is Nyuu still alive in the Elfen Lied series?
I realize that in the end of the anime Elfen Lied there is a shadowy figure. And that they don't tell you who it is behind the door, but can someone give there information of whether Nyuu is still alive and if that was her behind the door? I have information of my own, but i'd like to compare with somone and hopefull get a better understanding of the ending of the story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8hJ28qnXaU Elfen Lied ending where I got most of my information off of. So Lucy talks with Kouta on the walkway and talk about how most children born will be made her kind, and if that were to happen then Kouta would surely die. Kouta then states that if Lucy were to kill any other people, he would surelly regret it, but since Lucy is supposed to kill humans Lucy decides to prevent the Diclonius world, and Kouta certain death. And in order to do that she would need to kill herself so that there is no chance that no one else will die, or of the Diclonius world. At the end of the anime where the Credits come, Yuka puts out an extra bowl and Kouta quickly says "That's one bowl too many" and Yuka replies "She would have wanted to eat too". She would have WANTED, meaning that if she were there still, she would want some food too. I do also know that the grandfather clock works in the end, the same clock that Nyuu played around with. Which may be a symbol to her still being alive. But im not sure about it. If I sound like i have been doing research to make sur ethat Nyuu IS dead, i'm sorry. I do really hope that Nyuu is alive. And I really hope that its a happy ending that im sure we all hope for. So someone please give me some of there information to confirm, is disaprove whether Nyuu is alive or not.
Why bring children to this cruel world?
This is and will be proof as long as this world is overpopulated, that the animal nature of man presides above his conscious will. Sophistication can be a quality of any species, but to evolve to something above the animal, -is to become more than the biological.
What should a person do when they feel they have nothing to offer?
I would like a quote a story from Mahabharat.Once Arjuna asks Krishna why Yudhishthir is called Dharmaraj (Religion king) and Karna ,Daanveer (Donation king) even though both never refused alms to anyone. Krishna says wait for some time and I will let you know.After a month, it was raining heavily in the whole kingdom when both Krishna and Arjuna, in disguise of Brahmins (wise men/priests), first go to Yudhishthir saying that we are doing a Yajna[1] and need 100Kg of sandalwood. Yudhishthir immediately sends his servants across the kingdom, and later refuses saying it is difficult to find dry Sandal wood anywhere. Let me know if I can arrange anything else for you. Both brahmins say “no thanks” and leave the place.Then they go to Karna and make the same demand. Karna thinks for a while and says it is raining heavily outside, it is least likely to get dry Sandal wood anywhere. He takes out his bow and arrow and cuts all windows and doors of his palace and compiles them for the brahmins.Later Krishna says to Arjuna, it is not that Yudhishthir would have refused if we would have asked for wood from his doors and windows. But this idea didn't strike Yudhishthir in the first place. Yudhishthir donates because it is written in Dharma (religion), Karna donates because he likes to do it.If you don't have now, its OK. It is not necessary that you should offer outright.You can pay later.You may Pay it forward when you have. :) :)P.S: I copied this answer from here:What are some lesser known stories about Karna?
If you lose your soul while still alive, what happens when you die?
Yes, it is possible to lose your soul and still be alive on Earth. You can do it unknowingly, as I did. Trust me when I say it is possible. You don't have to "sell it" or say something out loud, you only have to push one or two very negative emotions into your subconscious mind for it to happen, unbeknownst to the person. I would assume it is VERY rare. I was told that it NEVER happens. All I can say is... I did it and all unknowingly as I was deceived. Once you stray off the path, yet you intellectually want to do the right thing, you can unknowingly have people put on your path to mislead you, which leads to a type of unconscious denial where you will push the negative emotion into your subconscious mind and no matter how much logic you apply, you cannot fix it. You fight for your life, as I did, not once but twice... yes that is how much of an idiot I was... I fought b/c I did not know I was going against a universal law. It can happen. It is something I NEVER would have imagined for myself and people who know me would not believe me either but you never know what energy goes in there and begins accumulating more energyMaybe I should rephrase it to say, you can lose your soul while alive and give it to the wrong side b/c if you lose your SPIRIT then your soul is transferred to the place you do not want to go so SPIRIT (what's in your heart) and SOUL (what's in your subconscious mind) will be going to a place NO ONE wants to go or at least most people would not want to go to....
Why shouldn't I suicide? The world doesn't need me.?
Look at it this way. In a jigsaw puzzle, no piece of the puzzle is any more important than any other piece, unless it is the piece that is missing, then it becomes the most important piece.
I want to experience everything life has to offer, how can I do so?
You want to experience everything that life has to offer? OK - but first you'll need to clearly define and understand what life has to offer. The answer is important and it's not what you've been thinking.First, the answer to all that life has to offer is not found in every lifestyle variation that you see as you look at the lives of others. These are just variations on a theme. What is the theme?When you're given life, you're given a potential. Assuming a certain degree of basic freedom, favorable circumstance, and minimal physical/mental constraints, the following can serve as a basic starter list:You can't walk - but you can learnYou're really short - but you will growYou know next to nothing - but knowledge will comeYou're really selfish and needy - but you will learn to give, even loveYou cry and others must comfort you - but you will learn to comfort othersYour world is small and confined to what you can see - but you will grow to see your world expand and your imagination soarYou can't do anything - but you will develop skills and abilitiesThat's enough for now... But, perhaps a theme emerges.All that life has to offer comes down to embracing opportunities to learn, grow, give, love, do, and imagine.Even a single life spent on these simple themes can experience all that life has to offer.
