		<description>Dstructor, cool to hear man.  It seems like you are on the path and motivated to grow which is the most crucial part.  What exactly is your question?  If it's about letting go of trying to control others action and response, I would suggest looking into abrahams material (in the resource section).  That would be a great start to cultivate a healthier attitude with others for you and them.</description>

		<description>Hey ryan
Nice post really, kinda similar to a problem i had...I've been living in my head for almost 7 years now, just realized it and realized how agonizing the feeling is. For the first four years of the 7 i was in a school but had major problems with other kids, probably for the same reason; screwed up analysis of things

The prevailing belief was that i can control people's action by doing what makes them respond in a certain way. I have a lot of material to help me through this but it's tough and i wanted your personal opinion about it

NB: This summer vacation i'm starting to live life a little; really using self improvment and not waiting for situations with women in it, exercising &#38; kickboxing so i'm not waiting to solve this issue to start living anymore. Thnx in advance</description>

		<description>Lol, Jared.  I definitely love to escape into my dreams for a while.  That is the best of what your mind is capable of, as it lays out the framework for creating your reality and attracts new things into your life.  The problem comes when our mind falls into somewhere in between, not quite creating new visions but not quite experiencing life.</description>

		<description>Live in the present. Sometimes I do not want to do that..thinking about how life will be like when i achieve my goals is sometimes more enjoyable than facing the current realities. I am an escapist..lol. This is one of my sins..</description>

		<description>Thanks Tania.  That's a great description of really drinking a beer.  I do that now at least once when I'm out to a club.  Often I'll step outside away from my friends and just enjoy a beer and look up at the sky.  It's funny, I usually have new people come up and meet me or my friends come to see what I'm doing.  

Hey Alex, yeah drawing and painting are fun.  I think that mind emptiness you are talking about is like being "in the zone" of complete purpose and focus.  It's a great place to be.  Now to get there on a consistent basis...</description>

		<description>Interesting post Ryan! Myself I try to draw and paint to really "feel in the moment", but I am also kind of practicing to transfer that "mind emptyness" to other areas of my life. Have a great day :)</description>

		<description>Great post Ryan! Living in the present is a common theme that runs through many of my posts as well as my life. Makes life so much more fun. Sensuality. I explained this one night in a bar with a guy... totally get into your beer, feel the wetness, cold and slippery-ness of the glass... the feel of your lips on the glass... the actual taste &#38; feel of the beer in your mouth. Sure he never enjoyed a beer so much :)
Love your writing style, really shows that it comes from the heart.
