    Could an1 recomend some interesting reading?

    I could some some insight into handling the mortality of life

    Becoming more one with my mind

    If find myself thinking on the balance of life. I was thinking alot lately about the yin yang symbol, my initial though was that in order for me too find my center I would have to find a balance (eg hedonism/asceticism), Im thinking now that while I still need to find a balance in life it needs to be relative to me (eg Hedonism/Morality). So as apposed to being in absolute balance im going to try to be a relative balance (Think of a tangent crossing through the symbol and the position and direction would be ones belief and outlook).

    Rant over, Thanks

    Eastern Philosophy might interest you. Tao Te Ching is a good little book to read, you could spend a lifetime trying to decipher it though. You could try Nietzche or Ayn Rand. Basically read as much as you can and figure out what works for you.

    There's a good little "starter" book that gives you an overview of the works of Nietzsche. Think it's called a "Nietzsche Reader" (Penguin Books) I "tried" to get through it before but not intelligent enough, lol......:) Not exactly light reading!
