notes for sanity

now --- given my swinging moods --- i am feeling better now -- after talking and consulting with many nice people and thinking over things -- here is a hurriedly written list of things to keep in mind -- i will try updating this later -- to always serve a reference

• the insecurity is normal, all people feel it
  
• i am fit enough to lead a happy life, be happy :)
  
• reason may not be the best way to approach the big questions of life -- attachment might be the better way -- detachment is bad. anything that makes you feel happy in the longer term is better, if psychological/philosophical reasoning isnt moving you towards that, it is bad -- yes false beliefs are okay if they make you happy -- we are in search of happiness out here and not truth -- if it makes me happy believing i have a bag of gold under bed, and i feel happy about it -- what the heck
  
• orient towards family, and believe in God. direct all your actions towards Self & Family (S&F). get involved with the world. let the economy run. for whatever reason the world runs, its okay to consider it good that it runs, [for want of better things]
  
• for 29$ a month, you can suppport a child in africa for life, including education, food, clothing etc. http://childafrica.org hmmm and what are you doing with your 29$?
  
• ego is not that bad an idea, reinforcing of ego feels good (dont let your ego make other people feel bad, in fact, feel egoistic pleasure in helping other people and making them feel better)
  
• Lets Walk Together
  
• make making other people happy a goal of life -- (dont try to think that they also might be making the same decision, so we are revolving in circles ... ;-) ... its okay if there are circular dependencies....there will be no deadlock here... ;-) )
  
• have fun, enjoy
  
• believe in God, have faith, listen to Aarti, meditate, read Hanuman chalisa
  
• get up early in the morning
  
• exercise
  
• listen to wonderful songs, read wonderful books (actually staying away from books would be a better idea, especially books with non-normal bent), play games!!!
  
• if in trouble, ask for people's help, its okay :)
  
• do better time managment, by stronger focus, and quick thinking and decision making. Present mindedness will help here
  
  

i feel that i may not be able to ever repay back this debt of wonderful help I got from people. Thanks!

This itself is something of a reason to rejoice, and makes you have more faith in life itself.
