i encourage you all to join me for some casual drinking, social lubrication and light laughter right here in the beer garden.
Oh and before anyone gets up in arms about alcohol and its dangers the main beer on tap is VB or virtual beer
beer is the third most commonly consumed drink in the world behind water and tea
why not share the worlds joy with friends

@Former-Member, yes, the process is therapeutic. I have also got myself into a little bit of trouble with being too manic with it at times (I have bipolar). It's great to hear that you are finding clarity through the process of writing, and that you are already two thirds through. That's a lot of progress. What is it you were doing before the disordered time? Sounds like you have a clear sense of how you want to move forward with your life.

already... umm that's relative... it's taken about 14 years to get to that point @Mazarita 😛
Before.. well that's synchronistically ironic, I was writing a thesis on higher consciousness and how to reach it. Yes.. I see the link by the way... a little too clearly... Carl Jung would be so proud lol
Oh by the way.. I think any process like that can be manic, it is almost the nature of focussed creativity.

@Former-Member, ah right, 14 years. That's very dedicated. Wow to your thesis subject. Yes, Carl Jung. I have read some of his writing and the writing of his followers. I am drawn to some of it. One thing that interests me a lot is dreams.

I discovered Carl Jung because of what I was working on.. not the other way around. if that makes sense @Mazarita then my life went almost sychnronistic to him.. except his was controlled mine was forced upon me. Who knows, Maybe the universe deemed it. I don't know. But it's just all very weird the way it happened.

@Faith-and-Hopeit involves permanent nightshift, guy in my room, jail enough said I think 😛
and already feeling very vulnerable so don't want to push it.

@Former-Member, yes it makes about how you found Jung. I just found him in the random process of self-education. Ah, but I'm getting sleepy now, so will say nightie night. I've really enjoyed chatting with you. See you around the forums.
