  1. not always, it is up to you to feel the feelings you want, so nothing says you have to feel happy from inspiration right after a tragedy, so no, it can be hard to recover from tragedy, and it can be worse if you have made bonds through crisis because they can remind you constantly of the horrible happening.


  2. Yes, I'd say the higher influences outweigh the lesser ones. I'm reminded of a quote from R.W. Emerson:

    "Dreams run deeper than despair."

    It is in the nature of the human spirit to instinctively seek Light instead of Darkness. Light is Truth that dispels the darkness.

  3. ONLY IF U BELIEVE IT

  4. not always

    example: the big flood that happened in asia

    dood we never heard about people joining together like on 9-11

    we were just some sad ppl

  5. No

    And also Love doesn't solve all problems

    The word "always" shouldn't be used very often, because rarely is anything  "always"

  6. They are on two ends of the spectrum .. the same spectrum, I think - that of love. Not necessarily the love of another person, the heart's romantic love .. but a caring love, compassion ...

    When things happen that demonstrate the greatest acts of love, we are inspired.

    When things happen that demonstrate the greatest toll of love, we experience tragedy.

    Not to imply tragedy is a good thing (not at all) ... but both are expressions of the power of love.

    It wouldn't be inspiring or tragic if we didn't care .... and if it didn't prompt us to embrace those around us ...

  7. Yes.  The most tragic event in the history of our world was the false accusation and illegal trial of Jesus which lead to His crucifixion.  However, this inspired many people to follow Him because by His death and resurrection we have the opportunity to have eternal life with God.

    Peace,

  8. No, not necessarily.  But, I have to admit, there have been times...

    It is one way, God gets our attention, when all else fails.

    It doesn't have to be this way, though.  He would rather have our undivided attention at will.  It is up to us and the choices we make in life as to accept His way or our own.  The longer we pursue life on our own, the harder it is to get our attention.  Sometimes we still do not see, unfortunately.
