I am a very complicated and neurotic human being :-). And this fact led me to several paths on how to understand why I suffer andhow to solve it. I just want to evolve and get rid of this suffering... even i have to go through more suffering to get there. Then is there is my ambition... by nature I am an ambitious person ( maybe one of my causes of suffering ) and I am instantly attracted to anything that coulb be known as the HIGHER POWERS. I know this is going to eventually bite me in the ass but I can´t help to pursue the best path. I just hope that the path will help me trascend this ambition and take me to a more humble and fullfilling ground. And last but not least... I am attracted to the occult things, the magical and mysterious thing are like a magnet to me. Anybody feels identified?? [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
