Part of maturity is just getting older. You don't need people as much; you are more independent. Problem is if you stayed somewhere long term you let people get reliant on you. This was your mistake. When older and maturer, you don't make the same mistake. You keep them at arm's length. You are not trying to impress people anymore. You are beyond that. Just my two cents.

Am I lazy or am I efficient? Or am I just not keeping up with my peers? Why am I worried? Who am I living for? What's my purpose? Wait let me ask AI.

Environment is huge and it's not just place but people. When you are settled, everyone wants a piece of you. In which case, time to up sticks. Next time don't let people and places get their hooks in you. This is maturity.

First I accept that I am insane and that's the reality of being here. That said there are two things to do. Live normally as far as the insane deem normal. Get out of here alive. Both are full time occupations. One body the other mind. As for body then, just enjoy like all other normies, have fun, laugh and joke and smile. Do the funnest thing available. What body does has no bearing on the mind function. What exactly is the mind function? Forgive the following trio as each arises: ‘I will be the doer,’ ‘I am the doer,’ and ‘I was the doer,’ and in so doing use no moment to construct a separate self.

Factor in down time each calendar month. Time where you do anything you feel like. Like for me I meditate 25 days a month and 5 days are anything goes. I usually put all my cheat days at the end of the month so I can have a good break.

Corruption doesn't exist in the third world. It's a first world label. In the third world, if you want something done, you don't get in line; you bring a brown envelope with the requisite banknotes. Brown envelopes grease the palms of the one's pulling the strings. Money talks, poverty walks. Even if you did something wrong, don't worry because everything can be settled amicably. Just bring a briefcase this time; an envelope won't suffice. Pay the fine, avoid the time. Corruption is a first world luxury. We can sit in universities and work out such codes of conduct. Your corruption is my industriousness. I take necessary short cuts for the good of my fellow citizens. Else nothing ever gets done. I am a admired citizen and I sleep well at night.

I have one Problem. From that there arises unending problems. Problems are my agenda - the things I need to accomplish before I am happy. Notice that nobody is happy. Even 95yo Warren Buffet is busy scheming to eke out a few more billions before he rides off into the sunset. He solved millions of problems but not the one Problem. Worse still he isn't aware he has a Problem and so he spins his wheels until death does its part. Problem is one's BIAS = belief in a self

Identity for most is who do I want people to think I am. As opposed to who am I am really. Thus I will behave to get people to affirm my identity. Most think if others affirm my identity maybe I am really that after all. So I better not change my behavior. True identity of course is awareness, within which no separate doer will be found. Awareness appears as moment-to-moment experience, arising without any reason that can be grasped by a mind.

What is fully and completely understood, leaves no trace as memory. ~ JK https://kfoundation.org/krishnamurti-what-is-memory-from-the-first-and-last-freedom/

Sleep lets the inside take over. To restore and heal. Waking life exacts a toll on the body. The inside can get to work and fix it during sleep.

Religious fanatics don't care about nuclear strikes. They are glory and martyrdom. They will endure any cost. It's a different rulebook to the one the west subscribes to. The regime is riding a wave of popularity and patriotism which will shore them up for years to come. All countries unite in wartime.

The meaning of life is to stop misidentifying as body. Death will oblige and do that. Do it now. Death, where is your sting? - as the bible says. Body keeps doing its silly thing. End the interference of trying to be good and trying to make life good. Body isn't one's reason for living.

Everyone thinks if I look harder my life will change.

That too. Your wit was lost in translation and led to mud-slinging. In any case, he explains better and with more sensitivity than most natives.

He is speaking from a higher perspective that anyone here. Should be more than clear. And besides, sarcasm doesn't translate into other languages. I'd suggest better to reign it in no matter how triggered.

Suffering is, the world is the cause of my unhappiness. Trauma is these people here are the cause of my suffering. If you don't heal, you will fight the world your whole life, trying to make it pay for its evident sins, Healing is to realize I want to be a victim since it gives me a story and to then drop it. Even if you cut off my arms, there is still nothing wrong with me. I came to set captives free. I do that easily when I can back up the words and the works with the scars and the stains. Suffering fast-track's salvation. My abuser woke me up to this understanding. As ACIM puts it: Light, joy and peace abide in me. My sinlessness is guaranteed by God.

It will show that everything that happens is for the best. Yes you can't change anything. The dye is cast. But you delight in watching the unfolding. You watch the movie not get involved in it. You will change your perspective not what is playing out. That's liberation and that's happiness.

Yes. No. Ignorance is a choice to veil truth. Or more precisely to choose illusion. Why choose illusion when you could have the kingdom? Ignorance. A choice to stay like I am, suffering and speculating.

Beautiful insight.

Stop being what you are not. So do you be what you are. What you are not can still do its thing. You are the whole not the part. You come here to learn that before the body breathes its last. You have nothing to do here. Except that.

It crafted the entire universe and the entire history so that you could take form. God wanted your unique perspective through which to view life. There was never anyone like you and never will be again. Use your innings well. God has your back. You incarnated to do great things. Most don't achieve their potential of course. Don't be most.

The universe is on its way to implosion. You meanwhile can take the slow boat there or the fast track. Willingness is alignment with Will. You have free will to opt for Will or want. After that binary choice, there is no more will-power. Everyone is seemingly going home - slowly or quickly.

Yes. You love another no more than you love yourself. If someone appears to have greater love for another, then it's a weak form of love like admiration, affection, attention-seeking or alikeness. So self-love is huge. And loving another should bring you to a higher plane out of which you love yourself all the more.

There isn't something. There isn't nothing. Go on deeper = G.o.d

Yes anger is to drink poison and hope the other person dies.
