To all the "smart" people on here who think they know everything

I get it...I see how intellectual everybody is and how "intelligent" all these arguments are. I hear how "God gave you a brain" and how you're using it to ask all these questions to which you will never get an answer.

Don't bother. I have a dog. He's a very smart dog. But he can't tell me what 1 + 1 is. That's the easiest question ever and yet my very smart dog (which a brain that God gave him) cannot hope to answer.

Charter for Compassion

It's less than two weeks now until the launch or unveiling of the Charter for Compassion, and I'm very interested in that, and wonder if anyone knows a particular way or place it will be covered in the media so I can watch or listen?  I've just read the transcript of the Bill Moyers interview with Karen Armstrong from last March and think she's doing a very good thing. Obviously a lot of people in the world think so, too!  Anyone here interested in what's happening?

Why this need to be 'right'? Aren't we all just at different levels of understanding?

Who can say who is right or wrong since we as individuals see life from different perspectives and quite honestly we are all at different levels in our ability to understand inner meanings and what reality is. Shouldn't we be more tolerant?

feeling what I'm feeling

I have to just let all this flow. if it doesn't make sense then its fine, I may be the only to truly understand it and like I said before wondercafe is the only place I can go to blog that no one knows me or can pass judgement on what I have to say. its just who I am and who I am is disappearing. I know my relationship isn't all that healthy, but it could be. its not physically abusive or anything like that but I am starting to feel like I am being somewhat controlled and somewhat lead in directions I don't know if I want to be in.

I am happy, but....

Why is trust such a huge issue. As we know, I am in a long distance relationship with someone and he lives in North Carolina. I have spent time with him twice and will admit that I do really love him. He got me through a lot of tough stuff and I can't ever thank him enough for that. He is my hero no matter what happens between us. I don't usually base my life around a man. I like having one, I like relationships and most of the things that go with it, but i also don't like the drama and the nonsense that can come along with it either.
