May I direct you to the “Love” chapter in the bible:

“Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.
For we know in part and we prophesy in part,
but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.” 1 Corinthians 13:8-10

We are ALL bound for our lifetimes to be under the Law of Love.
We must Love one another as we love ourselves. (YES, even low self-esteem ppl! thats a misnomer!)

Cures become the new problem, so you need the antidote to the remedy to the solution to the fix to the cure. And then just detox from the antidote and you should be good for a while.

If you no longer need help, then it is time to help others. This is not always easy, so you will need to ask for help with helping others.

Depressing, even. There’s the whole drama of the struggle to overcome sufferings, and finally you have a breakthrough for perfect success…. then there’s nothing. No lows, no highs. Some people never get over being cured, and lead bleak meaningless lives.

u speak from experience no? what you’re practically saying is theres no point achieving the enlightenment of actually being cured. What if it is better than theory.. what if its in practice, a repetitive state of woe thats become contagious. .. im sorta leaning torwards the fact .. i dont need this crap im getting from you. tell me if im wrong but why do i feel so **** good. correct me if im wrong.. wtf u getting at.

I’m just dramatizing how what feels like the cure now can fade later. Enlightenment does not last forever for real people in the real world. This isn’t good or bad, it’s just how things are. If you’re happy now, great, but you’ll need something new to be happy tomorrow.

As I was saying at first, most problems people have are things that were solutions before. We don’t make bad choices on purpose, we make very intelligent choices that solve our problems. But yet problems keep coming.
Faith is like trusting knowledge.

I’d have to say you’re definitely not cured, and probably need help — you’re getting really annoyed at very helpful things, and allergically breaking out in profanity.

It all depends on what you thought you were cured of, but for basic dealing with people and coping with life you’re struggling, arguing, insulting, attacking.

I hope that helps.

What you have faith in is what you believe and trust. That’s why religions are called faiths.

“faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen”

You know, you live and breath air. Blood pumps through your veins.
You are a living human being.
You can see with your eyes, feel the warmth of the sun on your skin and smell orange blossoms in the air as you pass by the orange groves. You hear the sound of the leaves swaying back and forth in the breeze and taste the fruit in your mouth when you pick a fruit and enjoy…

All 5 senses you use to be aware of your surroundings.
Yet, for all your empirical prowess, you cannot detect that you have a “mind”.
But you know categorically that your mind exists.
You beleve in “faith” that you possess a mind.

You have faith in something that you cannot detect using your powers of empiricism.

Same as the wind that blows. You can see its effects and you can feel what it does, but you cannot know from where its coming or to where it goes. but you have faith that it begins and ends somewhere.

The reason some html doesn’t work is b/c they were disabled awhile back when a certain user abused it and ruined it for everyone else. Now if you wish to use it you must have it enabled by a moderator or an admin.

We can only enable it when you want to use it. So if you were to post something with html we would fix it for you; that’s how we enable it. There’s isn’t a button we push for certain users that says enable or disable. We just edit your post that has html in it.

Nope. Not even close. We came up with a NEW ailment that has the side effect of euphoria making you think you are cured. On the contrary, that is the first symptom of this horrific disease.

And the only cure is to stick around and help and warn as many people as you can here on Help.com. Oh and the pay is the same as everyone else….

hahahhaaha! you must be new here.

that’s not really how it works. first of all, how am I to know if you are telling the truth? maybe you are a troll? maybe you are being completely honest, but you’re a stubborn dumb-*** who can’t see the truth biting him in the nose?

at any rate… as helpers we are called upon to make a judgment based on the available information. and the available information is most likely inaccurate, incomplete and biased. not to mention absurd, poorly expressed, and/or logically impossible.

I have found most people don’t want help. what they want instead is affirmation. they want to soldier on despite their problems. and since IMO, that amounts to a continuation of the problem, I am here to set fire to your world. Out of my mouth comes a double-edged sword.

…so says the Fish
