An upvote or a PM from people whom I admire

@cjko For me, this one depends again on perspective (how you view your life).
I wrote an essay before in my social science class in UP that humans, by nature, are
socially comparative
.We tend to imitate what others look or try to get what they have. If you can suppress this "nature", like appreciate of what you already have and stop comparing yourself with others, then you will be contented.

Where old feelings come to an end, new feelings replace them ... I will always be content due to the nature of others.
Oh and by the way nothing is impossible, that is just a perception formed of defeat hahah :P -
@liliputian1 True indeed. If we stop comparing ourselves to others and be comfortable and happy of what we have;that contentedness will be sure achieved then. :)

so as to nothing is impossible.. how can you possibly stop your heartbeat when you're still alive ? :DPersonally I have not yet achieved that ... but I have managed to reduce it down to 4 or 5 beats per minute ... my ex thought I was going to die :O but that does happen to be something I have always been fascinated in,not death per say ... but the reduction of heat rate to achieve ultimate meditation ;P
