Beauty AND the Beast

There's a beauty to this beast.

reality is only a figment of our imagination to begin with. What i see as a reality will probably not match yours.

For instance, you and i will see the grass, or the leaves on a tree in summer, as green. But what I see as green won't match what you see as green.

So reality is a generic term to begin with. BP'ers only don't comply bbecause we see the world from an emotional perspective

mmm. But certain 'realities'...like, I got manic when someone close to me died...coping mechanism...or just perverse?

I now exactly what you are tucking about. Everything can be going very well and there I am, horizontal, immobilized and wishing I could die. Other times I am unmanageable and create all kinds of chaos & destruction, but think and feel great. Insanity?

' realistically I probably should be depressed '

huh ?

not perverse, just symptoms of your illness most likely triggered by grief and stress. jmo

To play on Pluck's words, it is the beast that lies within. When we are happy, we are the Beauty and it is hard not to forget the Beast. All we can do is enjoy the Beauty while it lasts and know that the Beast will soon return.

Ok, Pluck, what I mean is that many people would be distraught in my circumstances...'realistically'...situationally depressed or whatever.

I better take a break, tucking instead of talking, geez. I think everybody was be a little tired of me bouncing around and putting my 1cents in, everywhere. ciao for now

i feel pretty good too, but i still need a job, thats a depressing thing, so, i get ya

again your reality and reaction to emotion dictates your mood. welcome to BP.. the emotion driven life.

I honestly and with NO shame believe it to be a tapestry where the thread is composed of both beauty and beast..darkness and light .

To find out what the tapestry means to each of us we have to battle through, being encouraged by times when we see more beauty..and to strive through the beast's darkness..with the knowledge that beauty will overtake it's weaves too..

BOTH sides are necessary elements in the thread.We can't cut any part out.Each tapestry is individual for each of us.


That's honestly what I feel.
Ridicule is ok.It works for me.

that's beautiful. Like that a lot.

all very interesting, thanks people x
