    I agree. I met a man online and he was great to text with! I told him I didn't want to talk to him in person because I really like texting him and I didn't want the reality of what he could be to ruin that ... lol. We met and "it" wasn't there. We stopped texting. =(

    I'm quite happy with my delusions of grandeur.

    sometimes yes. Most times no. I would appreciate some bliss sometimes.

    But not blissful? Dare to dream the impossible young sir.

    If you have ignorance for the negativities of the world, then yes, I believe you will be more blissful. I honestly would have no problem with knowing much, MUCH less than I do now.

    Anais Nin was brilliant. She said it better than I ever could.

    Sounds like you've almost got it all figured out Chael...another 40 years roaming this planet and you'll be able to write some philosophy books.
