    A comment on Conversation: How would this world have been if there was only love and happiness...and there did not exist any kind of doubt....and fear??

    Aug 27 2011: Love and happiness are things we all are expecting and trying to maximize while knowing they will come only when you put much effort to get them. They are members of Law of Attraction, in other words. We search for them since the age of understanding till we die. Optimists can find them easily, i believe.

    Fear and doubt, despite their vastness in us, in opposite manner, at last will grow something good in us only when we try to do something to eliminate them. It is a very challenging and interesting task to eliminate one fear after another and one doubt after another to pursue what we are in desperately need of --- love and happiness.

    So, they all have to exist.

    A comment on Conversation: If "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" what is beauty through your eyes? It can relate to as a mate or anything else your eyes see.

    Aug 27 2011: As for me, I see two things as "beauty".

    1. If i see people are happy and enjoying in what they are happy about (only good things), i think this scene is beautiful for me. I would love to see more of such scenes.

    2. If i see people working with devotion and love to talk about how they are interested in doing what they love, I feel that is a kind of beauty.

    Thanks for having a chance to share what i think.
  • A comment on Conversation: Is it guilty to take some works by others as a reference or as a basis for our own creation?

    Aug 8 2011: Hey, C.W,

    It's a good comment.

    It would be the best if we could solely rely on our own instinct right from the start for things we create. Even if we have to look at things created by others as a food for our own idea, we shouldn't take any parts of any references.

    But, as learners or beginners of something new, it may be compulsory just to look at works by other people and create their own with or without basing on the works of others. Because they first need to learn a set of rules on the subjects, later if they understand or master the rules, their creations may come up automatically.

    But, there are times, even for experts and professionals who dried up with fresh ideas, copy or imitate things done by others. Don't know they feel guilty about that. That's the point i am wondering.

    Thanks really.
