I don't think you can help but do what you need to in order to fulfill what you need to in your existence!.

I could say to you to follow your heart, feelings, logic, or any number of other things, but I think that you should follow whatever it is you are inclined to, and don't rule out the inclination to do the opposite of what your inclined to do, and certainly you need not be inclined to follow anything!.

I think this works out because with whatever level of awareness one has, they are growing with their experiences, and that growth can work in all sorts of ways!. Maybe you do something that is harmful to you or others (maybe those identifications should be melded into one), you'll learn from that!. Maybe you get in a rut where your learn nothing, you learn from that not learning!. I would also add that you are not just learning cause and effect relationships, but growing into a deeper awareness!.

I am sure I am not articulating this perfectly :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
