Are you good at taking compliments, or do you usually shrug it off and act like you didn't deserve the compliment?

I could never simply shrug off a compliment, it's a wonderfully kind and generous thing to receive from anyone. But that doesn't mean I accept every compliment as fact and that also doesn't mean that I don't take great humility and warmth from every compliment I receive.

Suzanne Collins once wrote "I wish I could freeze this moment, right here, right now, and live in it forever." Do you have a moment you want to freeze as well?

Never. There's always the capacity to for revelry in a soul, and the likelihood is that you'll always find better, happier, more thrilling moments as you let life untangle and unwind. Then there's death and the next phase of the soul, and that is eternal. So we're all granted that moment in essence.

In your opinion, when is anger a negative emotion and when is it positive? Why?

Anger is a pure emotion and so it is never negative. People are misled and are under the misconception that anger is violence or pain but that is infact rage not anger.

What is always worth to wait? x

Death. So don't rush the process or squander the beauty all around you because it's there. Death is our reward for living and is just another rung on the ladder.

Do you think it is possible to live a happy and fulfilling life without finding a significant other?

Honestly?
No, not to that extent. As human beings we are designed innately to find and settle with a partner, we were made to be two not one regardless of sexuality, gender, race, age, etc we are still very much primitive beings and it's a necessity in order to be totally fulfilled, happy and connected with God and the world around us to communicate with another's soul in an intimate, romantic context. Love is everything to the human race!

What's something you want to do that scares you? x

Fall in love again. The whole process of connection and communication of the soul between two people, at a level so intimate in it's expression and emotion naturally creates a conundrum of sorts; suddenly your whole life changes as does your perspective on alot of things. It's a process that bring us closer to ourselves and to our souls as two become one in the most beautiful way but it also take something from you that you never get back. It's scary, but every now and then it pays off in an incomprehensible way!

Are you looking for a girlfriend at the moment?

I suppose so yes, in the sense that I feel I am prepared again and in a place were a relationship is something that I want but don't need and won't stray me from my lifepath, something that is incredibly important to me! I'm always looking to connect with people on a daily basis but now finding a girl that I can share my life and love with is something that is increasingly important to me and is something I am definitely open to right now :)

What's your confession?

Xal
I've only ever fallen in love with one girl (though I used to under the misconception that it had been two).
The only girl I've ever fallen in love with is also the only person I've ever cheated on, ironically, especially considering that I have been cheated on in almost the majority of the relationships I have been in.
I also still haven't forgiven myself to this day for either breaking up with her before I cheated when I really should have for the sake of each of our sanity's or not have got together with her as quickly as we did after the prior relationship to the one I shared with this girl.
However, I believe in second chances and in growth of the spirit and of the soul and I hope to attain each of those now that I am ready, again, to find love.

The way you talk about how much you love women makes me smile. I'm not sure why.

I'm not sure why either... but it sounds like I've had some kind of a positive effect on you and thus the compliment of a smile is returned :)

What are some of your guilty pleasures?

I have to say, women. Unless I am in a committed relationship, and of course even more so when I'm in love, then I have to be totally honest in saying that the romantic and sensual lover in me comes out on full display and I tend to get myself in all kinds of tricky and sticky situations. I just have such a eloquent and compelling love for women, though my intentions are always pure and benevolent my soul cannot deter from the beauty that resides in so many magnificent women out there in the world.
I hope I'm not misunderstood here or made myself out to be something I'm not. But this is as honest and open an account as you'll get here.

I mean.. what/who is the reason behind your current mood :)

ThatsSoMeee’s Profile PhotoElena
Ahh okay well first let me explain my current mood...
I'd have to say that I am in an optimistic and gratified mood, this is down to a number of things really: the improvement of my mental health regarding my depression, the consistency I now have in my life, the wonderful people I am meeting every single day and the love and compassion and genorosity that they have shown me over the past few days. You and all of my followers and anyone who has read and liked and questioned and followed me are responsible for the warmth in my heart and the nourishment of my soul. So thank you all :)

Does the future make you more nervous or excited?

ThatsSoMeee’s Profile PhotoElena
It excites me now that I see the overwhelming beauty erupting from the pores of the Earth like tears of joy. There is so much to be excited and optimistic about that I now am relinquishing the hope I once had in place of the former.
Power will be restored back into the hands of the people and the illusion of might the superficial world once reigned with is eroding into thin air and will soon be replaced with nourishment and health. Sure there'll be bumps along the road but we are getting ever so close to sanctuary, majesty and ecstasy as human beings.
The hands that, for so long, have been covering our eyes unkowing to the masses are running out of strength to hold them there and as each crack between its fingers are revealed we ourselves gain the strength to cast the deceit away and begin anew on top of the good that still resides in a broken society.
So I maintain, I am very much excited for the future and what it will undoubtedly bring!

Do insecurities make someone hard to love?

Only when they are your own insecurities.
We are all, inherently, made up of imperfections and doubts and worries and pain- but we are also made up of hope and joy, optimism and beauty. We all deserve love and when it is pure we found our way, not around other's insecurities, but through them.
Trust in love and open your heart to it, nothing nourishes the soul quite like love.

What is a soul, in your opinion ? Does it have anything to do with a human being's organism, their organs ? Or is it something beyond a physical body ?

I believe that the soul is your true self and it is your connection with Earth and with God.

Opinion on music? What does it mean to you? Any favorites?

Expression and communication, as I notoriously always say, are everything! Without it we are nothing but bags of bones and fluids, empty and meaningless vessels. And I think that the human race is worthy and capable of much more than that!
I am a singer/songwriter myself and take my work very seriously, I believe it to be one of very few tools I can use to make contact with my soul and with other human beings. My genuine aspirations, as a singer/songwriter, began at around about 14 verging on 15. This was around about the age that I felt, within my soul, that I had discovered my true path in life. You see, music to me is like a soulmate, I love my art more than I have ever loved any thing else- animate or inanimate. So the feeling I described prior was the same feeling I had when I fell in love with my ex, it's a connection that spreads from your very core and throughout your body and out into expression. It is honestly one of the more powerful experiences of my spirituality that I have ever felt.
To summarise music and it's place in the world: music is art, art is beauty, beauty is perfection, perfection is the soul and the soul is total communication with everything. Thus music is divine.
My aspirations as a singer/songwriter and musician include being signed to a record label and thus being able to work as a musician professionally and I hope to reach the heights of my idols in becoming one of the most successful and revered artists of all time. But the beauty that lies in all of that is in the music itself and it's magnificent and glorious power, nothing is stronger than the soul and music is one of the most powerful ways to connect with a persons soul.
So, in conclusion, that about answers your question and what music means to me and a little bit about my own aspirations as a musician myself. Below is a list of my favourite artists, though I may have missed out one or two, if not many...
In no particular order I hasten to mention these are my favourite bands:
The Beatles
Arctic Monkeys
Radiohead
Queens of the Stone Age
Nirvana
Led Zeppelin
Kasabian
Foals
Muse

How important is sex to you? What does it mean to you? And could you live without it?

Sex is, naturally, a very intimate topic, but it's also something that we fail to discuss openly, in a relaxed and honest way. Sex shouldn't be scary or discouraged or frowned upon as taboo. Sex is beautiful and is thus pure and divine. Sex is the act of two souls connecting in the most intimate way capable to a human being and also brings us closer to nature and to God. Sex is a very spiritual activity.
So of course sex is exceptionally important to me because I value it as it should be valued, I'm open about my sexuality and if I find somebody attractive in whatever capacity whether it be a committed relationship or two people whom just have a very physical relationship with 'no strings attached' I am open to all mediums of expression and sex is perhaps at the topper most of the pyramid of communication. It is the communication of souls and bodies creating one form, one magnificent celestial being. And thus this also answers what it means to me. Sex allows me to be at my most pure and divine, in one moment we become at one with everything. It is unwavering in it's beauty.
And could I live without it? No. Why would I want to when I have just described how important it is for the soul, to nourish it with communication and connection in such a profoundly intimate form of expression? Sex, to me, is an art form, it's absolute total communication with no bounds or limitations. Sex, as is life and the soul, is infinite and essential. So no I could certainly not live without it, but that doesn't mean to suggest that I need it a certain amount of times or with a certain amount of people. I just would be foolish to say that I didn't value the beauty in sex and the nourishment it offers us as celestial creatures.

If its ur last day in ur life what would u do and were would u go ?

I couldn't possibly answer that accurately, without knowing how my mind would respond to that reality and what my thought process would be I just would be a fool to mislead myself with a plan as intricate for something I, as yet, have no understanding of.
Ask me again when I am faced with this as my reality and you will truly get a pure and honest account of what I'd do and where I would go. Until then I am utterly useless with regard to this question.

Could you, please, answer my question about lucid dreaming? It's important. I would really love to know how lucid dreaming helps to battle depression; I didn't really find anything of significance on the Internet about this subject. Thank you in advance.

Sorry, I have now answered your question although in response to you describing it as a tool to 'battle depression' I personally don't utilise it for that. I use my lucid dreaming to penetrate my mind as far as I can take myself and allow my consciousness to fester in it so that I can absorb information that I wouldn't otherwise have access to it. I also use it simply for fun, I enjoy my abilities as a dreamer. And I also use it to explore my mind and scenarios that in reality I can only play out once, in my dream state there are no limitations and I have often spoken fluently in languages I couldn't possibly know and yet I understand, for the most part, exactly what is being said. I also am able to construct infinite spaces including infrastructure, cultures and whole, fully animate and unique characters.

Could you, please, tell me more about lucid dreaming? How is lucid dreaming related to depression?

Well what would you like to know specifically? Anything at all, I am at your disposal intellectually...
And I believe that my depression bares very little influence on my dream state. However it is arguable that my depression has caused me to have a unique relationship with my mind, perhaps to be more aware of it and better equipped to explore and penetrate it and thus gather information from it.
