YOURSELF.

Hmmm, i guess that's true. I mean i guess you can't find something if you know where it is.

Alannah said...

That's a cool famous quote :)

xny94x said...

I agree with this 100%!

griffinrider said...

actually, no, it's not a "famous quote", as far as i know. i made it up. maybe it will become famous someday!

Zetsu said...

yes, because until you realize your not the real you, you can't find your real self.

xny94x said...

I think I've heard it before to so it may just be one of those phrases people say like "If at first you don't succeed, try again" but less popular.

Beachbum said...

i know what this saying reminds me of! you know how people say you never really know what you have until it's gone, it reminds me of that. what do you think?

i soooooooooooo agree!!!!!!!

thanks for the help with the chicken question im still debateing.....how do u spell that, debateing, de-bate-ing, of you drop the "e" ???

confused as ever, havva nice day!

griffinrider said...

hey ny94: really? awww, i thought i was the first one to think of it! i thought i made it up. i'm so disappointed.

beachbum, it's kinda similar, but the 2 phrases have very different meanings.

star, i believe it's spelled "debating".

griffinrider said...

so most of us agree on the sentence i wrote. ok. but just how DO you find yourself?

Beachbum said...

yes griffin, you are quite right. the two saying do have very different meanings. your saying is more of a personal relationship with yourself. where mine is a relationship with another person. but they still remind me of one another. talk to you later.

Finding yourself is incredibly hard, Griffinrider. Even if you were to find yourself in the midst of the world, you could lose it again. Every day you are changing, every year you're different from the last. I don't think there is a way to find yourself, you just have to let it come to you. Just go with the flow, and let things fall into place.

Of course, those are just thoughts from your average kid. Who, he himself, has yet to find out who he is.

MoOn said...

Cuppy said...

Hoshi said...

that's great! where did you find that quote? sorry i've been off for a while. =]

PS
... how are you?

griffinrider said...

i'm fine, thanks. and as i said before, i'm not quoting anyone, i made it up! why doesn't anyone believe me?!?!

turnabout said...

while i agree that that statement holds truth i have to say that personally i've gone as far away from my personal being as physically possible and coming back to who i am is easy enough. at least in the sense that i can project that person whereas my real being is still at odds with itself. i wish it were as easy as finding myself again but fact is that after losing myself, my subconsiousness perfers being away from it.

and now my attention span has reached it's end partly because my dad just turned a song a haven't heard since i was very very little. so g'night for now

AliceLostWonderland said...

i think it will be the motto of the week

wandering, searching
hopeless till a skin is shed--
with new self comes peace.

But before we lose ourselves, we have to discover who we are.
