Why not? Suppose 100 years from now we live in a UBI Yellow economic and cultural system. We are still alive and have 5-year-old kids. It means that our kids have skipped traditional Orange stage. They can simply learn the essence of Orange such as accomplishment, logic, reason, etc. in another way. They don't need to experience and learn Orange the way we did.

I love your style. That sounds good. Thanks! It's complicated because I don't have direct evidence (videos of him feeding poison to my dog). However, I know it's him because every time he returns from overseas, a dog or a cat suddenly disappears. Last year, a stray black cat I rescued from starvation suddenly disappeared. The cat was already very thin and near death. I fed the cat until he became healthy and strong over the course of four to five months. I even named him "Lucky Boy" because he was lucky enough to have met me. Lucky Boy would come to my home several times a day for his meals. But one day, Lucky Boy did not come back. I waited for him for three days, but there were no signs of him. Then I remembered the psychopath neighbor who had just returned from overseas and was seen burying something in his yard. I then recognized a pattern: whenever a dog or cat mysteriously disappeared, that neighbor would bury the animal in his yard. I felt so angry, so I decided to confront him. I directly asked him what he had buried, and he replied that it was a cat. I asked whether it was a black cat, and he answered yes. Then I asked why he had poisoned the cat. He calmly said that he did not poison it; he simply found the cat dead on the street. He sounded believable, so I just returned home. Then, last month, my dog almost died and showed signs of poisoning. I was confused about what had happened because it was the first time my dog had behaved that way—I never thought he was poisoned. I had never seen my neighbor returning from overseas, so I never suspected that my dog had been poisoned. Thankfully, my dog eventually recovered, and I took him to the vet to confirm the poisoning. I also brought a sample of a chemical attached to a piece of plastic that I had found in my yard. The vet confirmed that the chemical was poisonous, but she couldn’t confirm whether my dog had been poisoned because several days had passed since the signs first manifested. I was puzzled, so I contemplated for a few days. Then I realized that my psychopathic neighbor might have returned without me noticing him. So, I decided to observe his house. First, I noticed that his car window changed from transparent to black, which meant I couldn’t see anyone inside his car. I continued observing until I finally saw someone doing something in his yard—and alas, it was him! I began to suspect that my dog was indeed poisoned by him. I contemplated again for several days and discovered additional signs that confirmed the poisoning. Days before the poisoning, I saw his wife walking back and forth in my front yard. That was strange behavior—I had never seen her do that before. Who would normally walk back and forth in my front yard? She was monitoring whether I was inside or outside the house. For context, my house and his are duplex units that share a common wall. My house is gated, and although my dog goes in and out of the house, he never leaves the gate's vicinity. When I’m inside, I obviously can’t see what’s happening outside. The psychopath’s wife appeared to be an accomplice; she was keeping an eye on me. Then I had an aha moment: right after she finished watching my front yard, she returned to her front gate and softly said, “He's outside the house. Not now.” This happened three times before I finally connected the dots. There are other signs that I cannot detail right now because it would be too laborious. However, I can provide another one: my psychopathic neighbor tends to avoid me. Whenever I leave the house, he immediately goes into his own. It seems that he is afraid that I know about the evil thing he did and will punish him for it. I love the positivity, Thanks. I will die trying because as I explained in my original post, my life purpose and spirituality are in Japan. Nothing else matters. I used to think that way, but as I detailed in my original post, it really feels as if an evil entity is actively sabotaging my efforts. When I'm about to succeed, when I'm just one step away from success, something completely outside my control emerges to derail my progress. In fact, I've observed other similar "derailing" events that I did not include in my original post. Amen. That is why I installed security cameras. Actually, I fantasized about catching the psychopath red-handed and caught in the security camera so I would have an excuse to break his face and soul. I don't give a fuck if he dies. He doesn't respect life, so his life shouldn't be respected. That's fair. I have been wanting to move to a condominium ever since threats to my life and my dog's emerged, but it's not easy. I live alone in a spacious three-room house. This is considered a dream house by many people around the world, especially in my country, a third-world nation. But I need to get out of here as soon as possible. Perhaps someone can rent or buy this house, and I would leave immediately if that happens. I exist to materialize and actualize my ambitions and highest potential, not to deal with a psychopath. I can detect the goodness in your heart. I wish there were more people similar to you around the world, especially in my vicinity. People such as you make the world a better place to live in. Thanks! Beautiful music is playing in the background while replying to you. So, here it is my friend:

This is probably the most vulnerable post I've made on this forum. I hesitated to do this because it probably won't lead to a satisfying result. Serious challenges and problems are rarely rectified via a forum post. But I decided to proceed because venting to the universe makes me feel a bit better, at least. And perhaps, a miracle might happen. After many years of trying to return to Japan and spend most of my existence there, I have burned out. Going back to Japan has been the biggest goal of my 30s. Entering Japan for a long-term stay is difficult for citizens of 1st-world countries. It's especially difficult for somebody such as me, who is a citizen of a 3rd-world country. I have applied for jobs at Japanese companies that can sponsor employment visas dozens of times over the years, but every application has failed. When I create a resume, I pour my heart into it; it is tailor-made for each job application, but I have never succeeded because most Japanese companies prefer applicants from English-speaking countries who are already based in Japan. I eventually abandoned that strategy after feeling discriminated against and demoralized. I figured I could obtain a long-term tourist visa or an investor visa if I accumulated significant money in my bank account. So, I started an online business - a listing on an online marketplace. I coded a piece of software that detects old versions of MS Office on a Windows PC, uninstalls them, and upgrades them to the most recent version - Microsoft 365 or Office Professional Plus 2021 (the latest at that time), for free. This process is accomplished with a single click via CMD scripting and automation. I used Microsoft's CDN to download and install Office, and I integrated a script that bypasses Microsoft's licensing mechanism. I suspected this might violate IP rights, but I did it anyway because I hoped my actions were legal. I had an old laptop running Windows 7. I performed a clean installation of Windows 10 on it and was surprised that the OS was automatically activated. I thought Microsoft allowed free Windows upgrades, so I applied the same logic to MS Office. My strong desire to accomplish my financial goal led me to embrace potential corruption, especially given how wealthy Microsoft and Bill Gates already were. My online business expanded rapidly, ranking in the top 20% in terms of revenue in just three months. I felt I was on my way to success until I received an email from the marketplace informing me that my listing had been removed due to an IP rights violation report initiated by Microsoft. The dream abruptly ended. But that failure did not deter me from pursuing my goals. I tried 2 other businesses or strategies; details of which I’ll omit to keep this post as concise as possible. Those 2 strategies also eventually failed. I was too strong-willed to surrender, so I contemplated another strategy for several months. I decided that obtaining a student visa would enable me to live in Japan long-term. I researched Japanese universities that accept students from my country and offer courses taught in English. The process was very laborious. I took and passed an English exam and prepared all the required academic documents. The paperwork exhausted me, but the most difficult part was the anxiety and trauma I experienced when I returned to my high school and college to gather the documents. I was too internally destroyed (anxietyy, depression, low self-esteem, etc.) when I was in high school and college; I created various traumatic experiences and memories. I could feel the CPTSD thoughts and feelings as I entered the gates of those schools. The intensity of the anxiety made me realize I still needed to do more healing and integration work. But after a few visits, the CPTSD was almost non-existent. I began to feel like my true self and I saw everything differently. I even had a spiritual experience. It became clear to me that how you see and experience things and people doesn't depend on what or who they are but on what or who you are. The Japanese university granted me enrollment in the International Relations program. I researched potential jobs in Japan that I could do while studying to financially support myself. There was only one thing remaining - approval from the Japanese Embassy. But even that ended in tragedy. Here’s the public review I left for the university, which received dozens of likes and approval from anxious potential students: " TIU wasted my time, energy, and money - I paid a $2.3K enrollment fee. I was admitted to TIU, but they canceled my admission because I didn’t pay the $5.7K tuition fee by the deadline. I didn’t pay on time because TIU required payment before I received my student visa, and there was no guarantee that the Japanese immigration authorities would grant it. I risked losing a significant amount of money, which made me extremely anxious. Moreover, TIU does not list any refund policy on their website. I was admitted on December 19, 2022, and I immediately asked for instructions on what to do next. But, TIU ignored my emails for over three weeks - they only responded on January 13, 2023. Their first email was a threat: it warned that I might not obtain my student visa on time because the immigration process takes 2 or 3 months, and if my visa was not granted by March 27, 2023, my admission would be canceled. Furthermore, TIU never mentioned that my money would be refunded if my student visa were rejected. All of these factors heightened my anxiety that I would lose the $5.7K tuition fee if I paid by the January 19, 2023 deadline, especially since I only had two months to obtain the visa. Ultimately, I decided to pay the enrollment fee only after receiving my student visa. Why would I risk paying $5.7K when there was a significant chance I wouldn’t receive my visa? I would simply lose all that money. On January 20, 2023, the day after the deadline, TIU canceled my admission because I did not pay the $5.7K tuition fee. I offered to pay immediately on the same day if they would guarantee a refund of $5.7K if my student visa was rejected. But, TIU refused my offer and did not refund my $2.3K enrollment fee. TIU essentially ripped me off. I simply did what was sensible. It was all TIU's mistake; their enrollment procedure is akin to a scam. I feel relieved I did not pay the $5.7K tuition fee because I could have also lost that money to TIU." This tragedy left me feeling severely depressed, and I felt as though I were divinely cursed. I recovered after a few months of depression, contemplation and introspection. Then I decided to learn financial trading as a last resort to obtain the money needed for a long-term Japanese tourist visa. To make it short, I lost a significant amount of money (equivalent to tens of thousands USD) rather than profiting. I was too naive; I underestimated trading. I mistakenly believed that predicting upward or downward trends was easy, but trading is much more complex than it appears. After several months of trading, I was left both financially and emotionally drained. In the past few months, I have been experimenting to create an effective trading system. I succeeded in that endeavor. This year, I became profitable. My trading system yields a return of 13.4% per month, and I feel very happy about this. But another distraction derailed my trading activities. Last month, a neighbor returned from overseas and tried to poison my dog. My dog almost died, which put me in a state of urgency. I stopped all trading activities and contemplated how to protect my dog’s life and punish my neighbor. I took my pet to the vet and researched animal poisoning. I also installed security cameras and looked into criminal behavior, especially narcissistic and psychopathic crimes. Based on this research and observation, I concluded my neighbor is a psychopath. He has already poisoned at least six dogs and cats and attempted to poison my dog. Only a psychopath could do this. Now, I’m standing up to this psychopath, and my life is at risk. This situation is an extreme distraction, and I feel exhausted. I see a recurring pattern. When I’m about to accomplish my goal, something completely outside my control emerges to derail it. I have contemplated this deeply and realized that God or something spiritual might have cursed me. I never believed in dark magic, but now, I am inclined to believe it’s real. How else can I explain my repeated tragic experiences? I’m trying to re-establish my trading activities despite the threat to my life and my dog’s. I am burned out, but I will continue walking my path. Creating this thread is a good start because expressing my thoughts and frustrations slightly rejuvenates my soul. I need to return to Japan as soon as possible. I'm at my best there; my life purpose, intelligence, creativity, and spirituality peak when I’m there. I know this because I’ve already lived there.

This is a classic example of power dynamics in a narcissistic family. Mary’s father, Fred Jr., was the eldest son of Fred Sr., Donald’s father. The scapegoat is the emotional (sometimes even physical) punching bag of the family. As a result, the scapegoat grows up carrying the family’s mental and emotional pain and becomes a dysfunctional adult. I know this because I was the family’s scapegoat as the eldest son. I was the emotional and physical punching bag of the family and I grew up completely internally destroyed (depression and other mental diseases, cripplingly low self-esteem, suicidal thoughts, etc). Nothing worse can happen to a kid than being chosen as the scapegoat. It’s bad for an adult to be scapegoated. If you were scapegoated by your boss and coworkers at work, you would experience intense stress and might feel suicidal if the scapegoating persisted. Imagine the negative impact to a kid who is scapegoated; it’s at least 100 times worse because a kid is very fragile and vulnerable. Kids are supposed to be showered with love and nurtured to grow mentally and emotionally into stable adults, not subjected to hate and condemnation. It’s especially devastating because the evil and abuse are inflicted not by friends, but by the parents themselves, who are supposed to provide love and support. A scapegoated kid, in many ways, is cursed for life! Mary’s father died young (in his early 40s) because of complications from alcoholism. Of course, his alcoholism served as his coping mechanism for the emotional pain he endured as a result of being the family scapegoat. Kim Jong Chul, the eldest son has stayed out of the political spotlight and was probably the family scapegoat. He was once considered a potential successor to his father, but Kim Jong Il reportedly dismissed him as being "too soft" for leadership. Instead, the younger brother - Kim Jong Un was chosen to lead North Korea. It seems being the eldest son (perhaps also daughter) is a recipe for being chosen as the scapegoat in a narcissistic family. It ignites my curiosity. Here’s a good article for further study and understanding: https://jreidtherapy.com/scapegoated-by-narcissistic-parent/

I don't know why Youtube recommended this to me. I don't watch his videos. That hurts a bit. The world has never been fair. This PewDiePie's Japan video has garnered almost 700,000 views in only 13 hours, while the Japanese castle video embedded in my original post has garnered only 33 views after 5 days. The Japanese castle video contains at least 100 times more beauty (and spirituality) than PewDiePie's Japan video. The world is indeed absurd.

Moving up the spiral is similar to any meaningful change, such as breaking free from addiction. Real change is accomplished not via knowledge or conceptual understanding, but via bone-deep emotions and will. That is why being sensitive is crucial. Sensitivity can lead to integrity and discipline, which sustain meaningful change. When sensitivity blends with open-mindedness, intelligence, and experience, genuine change becomes an automatic result.

How did you know this is true? Those 2 narcissist roommates might have gaslighted you. This sounds like you are experiencing narcissistic abuse. This is very bad, and you should not tolerate it any longer. Tell those two narcissists to leave your apartment. If they resist or threaten you, report them to the university principal and the police. Make sure you document everything—for example, proof of you paying the bills and evidence of them leeching your money and controlling your finances. Documenting everything is important so you can provide evidence to the police. Those narcissists might seem strong and brave to you. However, that's only true from your perspective because you don't stand up to them. You have allowed yourself to be controlled. The truth is that narcissists are internally weak and cowardly. That's why they pick people they think are weaker than themselves to control or bully, because doing so makes them feel strong and enhances their self-esteem. You're probably safe inside the university, so it's better to stay there most of the time. Minimize leaving the university after driving them out, because it's possible they will retaliate. However, you must stand up for yourself and establish boundaries. If you can't do that for whatever reason, it's better for you to transfer to a different university to eliminate those two narcissists. Here's a good video for you. It can help you understand narcissistic behavior and abuse because the presenter himself is a narcissist—though more self-aware than most. You can learn a lot from him. I recommend that you watch all of his videos, if possible.

One possible solution is for you to move to a cheap country so that your $50,000 goes a long way. You don't even need to get a job with that amount of money. For example, in the Philippines, it's possible to have a decent standard of living with $500 per month (including rent, food, electricity, water, and internet bills). You just need to be prudent. You can stay for two or three years and use that time to heal yourself or build your dream life. I have seen a few Westerners (both Caucasians and Black individuals) on YouTube whose lives were miserable in the USA, UK, etc., but improved when they started living in the Philippines. They experienced significantly better lives in the country; they decided to stay permanently. One of the benefits of living in the Philippines is that its culture is among the most similar to that of the USA in Asia, making it easier to adapt. Also, most Filipinos speak English well enough.

Yes, life resembles trading: high risk, high reward; upward and downward trends; pullbacks; highs and lows; entry and exit; support and resistance. I have always been amused every time I discovered trading's fractality in life.

This is what I love about Stage Green. I wish there were more people similar to him around the world, especially in my vicinity. But such goodness is too rare to exist in real life.

In a few ways, pets are indeed "slaves", similar to kids. But that is not necessarily bad. In fact, they need to be "enslaved" to a certain degree for their and their owners' survival. What matters is that pets and kids have decent "slave owners". You wouldn't be alive today if your parents didn't "enslave" you when you were a kid. Lastly, what I said about pets making life more beautiful and meaningful stays true. This is true not only from my perspective but also from my pet's perspective. When I look at my pet, I see beauty, intelligence, and love, and I feel these higher qualities inside. I then express them to my pet via words and actions. My pet, in turn, feels what I feel inside. It's a deeply beautiful experience; a romance with existence. Try to remember your childhood experience of having a cat. Perhaps you can gain some understanding of what I'm saying. Not really, especially if the human companion is decent. Many pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and otters love their human "slave owners".

Sin Chang-won is a notorious South Korean criminal who gained fame for his daring prison escape in 1997 and his ability to evade capture for over two years. He was often referred to as a "modern-day Robin Hood" due to his actions of stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. - CoPilot If the information presented in this video is accurate, that means he is more of a hero than a villain. The rich steal money from society enormously and shamelessly, but "legally". That is why there is a massive wealth gap between the top 1% of society and the bottom 50%. There should have been no jail time for this modern Robin Hood, especially that he has never murdered anybody. At worst, 5 years of jail time because it's also a valid argument that he violated the law, regardless of the intention. And 30 years of jail time for Park Geun-hye, the South Korean president and Lee Jae-yong, the chairman of Samsung. But where are these corrupt, rich Koreans? They have been pardoned after a few years, and the others have never been indicted, instead, they have been perversely celebrated. Society is absurd! If South Korea was replaced with USA, China, or Philippines, what I said would stay true. I value Justice, Fairness, and Sense more than Legality, Tradition, and Conformity.

Recently, I have been contemplating the fact that I will be 40 in just a few years. I feel a bit horrified and struggle to accept it. Then, Spotify randomly played that song. Retrospectively, 4 decades pass too quickly. Life is, indeed, too short. I feel mono no aware because my 20s have passed, and soon, my 30s will also be gone. An aspect of me wants to cling to my youth. How about you? Do you want to live eternally?

That's sensible. I understand because I feel the same way. I wonder from time to time whether I really physically peaked when I reached 30. Perhaps, I actually physically peaked when I reached 25, but I was too internally destroyed to notice. I felt internally and physically weak. Retrospectively, I clearly see that the internal state dictates and manifests in the physical state. The first time I felt like myself (after many years of internal and self-healing work) was when I reached 30 or 31. I experienced a sudden and constant surge of energy throughout my body. My physical state began to align with my rejuvenated, empowered internal state. Everything started to flow naturally. That is why I said I reached my physical peak when I turned 30.

But there is nothing wrong with this. Pets make life more meaningful and beautiful.

That was entertaining. 1:02 made me 😂.

I disagree. As I have said in my previous post, honoring divinity alone is not enough. The quality and frequency of spirituality and awakenings you have don't even matter if you neglect your humanity because, in the end, you have a human self and existence. Paradoxically, neglecting your humanity betrays your divinity. I have clarified it in one of my previous posts that having a good lifestyle and diet is important. I don't think this is true. If you observe your body, you feel pain when there's something not functioning well. The human body is designed to become old and eventually fail. So, pain is unavoidable. And knowing that your body is mortal and will eventually become sick and rot results in mental-emotional pain. Just listen to this old American in the video. You don't need to watch the entire video. The first 8 minutes are enough to communicate his message. I agree. Even this integrous MIT neurosurgeon clarified it in his viral video. This shit is not only true in the USA, where he is from; it's also true where I am from, and true where you are from.

If it's something new and important, or extreme, or complex, it's always difficult to imagine or understand initally. But as you continue to think about it and consider its merits, you'll begin to see the sense behind it. As I have mentioned in one of my previous posts, Caucasians (and blacks) reach their physical peak in their early 20s. It's my first time encountering somebody from that race claiming a physical peak at age 40. But if you feel your claim is true, then congratulations. It is until your knee joints hurt and fail to function because of old age. I don't think it's true that most people's path is discovering who they truly are. They just want to be with their family or friends, eat, work, and then die. But yes, a long, healthy, and quality life sounds very inspiring. That's true. But at this point in my life, I am more focused on my human version. I feel the pain of being limited, but I still want to honor my human self and existence. I want to blend divinity and humanity, and the unlimited and limited into a unified entity: me.

I have a pet dog who I love and I consider him my son.

He is the Michael Jordan of spontaneously spewing humanshit (BS). But yes, gambling can be a good profession if the gambler is strategic. There are more similarities than differences between gambling, stock (currency, commodity, etc.) trading or investing, and starting a business. All activities risk money for the opportunity to gain money. A gambler, trader (or investor), or businessperson can be strategic or reckless, and they derive excitement and other emotional stimulations from the activity they participate in. I had a quick conversation with ChatGPT about this topic a few days ago. But there is one thing which separates starting a business from the other activities: directly producing value. From society's perspective, starting a business is better and more beneficial.

It seems you know more about the band than I do. I also want to be big in Japan, but what I mean by big is unique to me.

The melody is decent. But what makes it interesting and capture my attention are the lyrics.

Yes, I'm Asian and probably reached my physical peak when I was 30. Asian males peak in their late 20s or early 30s, while Caucasian males peak in their early 20s. As a result, Asian males (and females) age slower. amen! Why not? God materializes things via me. Humans are God's "co-creators". It would be exciting to stay young for at least 500 years and witness the changing of seasons and generations.

amazing animation! Yes, it's true that a 50-year-old is generally wiser than a 25-year-old. But NOT all old people are wise, and NOT all young people are dumb. It seems you feel more fulfilled the older you become, congratulations! The past few days, I have seen on YouTube men in their 60s and 70s who prefer to live in solitude. According to them, it's more fulfilling because they don't need to deal with people's BS. People are selfish and deceptive, so it's better to avoid them. I feel happy that I'm in my 30s but can enjoy solitude for consecutive years. But I also acknowledge that the point of life is exploration, experience, learning, appreciation, and enjoyment. That includes spending time with people. Otherwise, it would be constricted and limited.

Thanks for the encouragement. But as Mayweather said, Beauty is skin deep. was created by an ugly motherfucker. He has a point because beauty is both internal and external. If by young, you mean young and dumb, then yes. What will you do in Japan? When I was there, I enjoyed the beautiful landscapes, the clean, organized streets, the polite and respectful (but also deceptive) Japanese people, my Japanese ex-wife, sushi, and the Japanese four seasons, along with the cherry blossoms and autumn foliage that come with them. It's the most beautiful place in the world.
