Is heaven a physical place or realm of some sort? Or an internal state? Or maybe both

1. From whose point of view? From “gods”? Because some type of suffering just seem negative and doesn’t make life more interesting imo. 2. That’s true. I’ve heard cases of people awakening under deep suffering. But the chance is really small unfortunately it seems. It happens to only a few people, most suffer without awakening. 3. Evolution how? I don’t really understand. Like if we take chronic illness for example , do you mean that people die from illness and those with better genes and health survive so that’s evolution. 4. that’s right, the hard work it takes to get to the top. That’s a struggle we could choose.

I see your point. I think the answer is quite nuanced and it depends on the suffering. For example the suffering you feel when you don’t wanna workout but do it anyways, it’s “worth it” becuase you’ll be closer to your goals if you do workout. The suffering you feel from a heartbreak, is that worth it? Maybe you learn from it not to become too attached or something to someone . So in that sense it was worth it. The pain from a chronic illness? Maybe not worth it. Maybe some things are just bad and don’t offer any worth. So it depends

Trying to adopt a mindset to see struggle as essential or worthwhile somehow is a sneaky way of trying to struggle less. So you’re trying to reduce the suffering at the end of the day. Nothing wrong with that as it’s the natural reaction. I’d say struggle just is, suffering just is, and whatever mindset you adopt about it is just an extra add on to make you feel better somehow

Ok I see

damn 25 is soon Yea it’s nothing to think much about now

Thanks for the input. I will use myfitnesspal

Does anyone know if this is a useful tool? It costs just a little money so I wanna know if it’s worth it. I don’t calorie count strictly because it’s not necessary to know with full accuracy how many calories I’m eating, but I’m wondering if this is a good tool to get an approximate amount, something to use sometimes when you wanna know approximately how much you’re consuming. For those who don’t know you take pics of your food and it calculates how many calories it is.

When do you wanna have kids?

Basically you’re normal I like for my children to save a lot of money so they can eventually move out. Depends on the salary too like sometimes it’s low and minimum wage then i wouldn’t take money but if it’s a good salary then maybe yes

Admit you just wanna spread your chad genes, wanna make sure your lineage survives Jokes aside I have a thing against parents who make their children contribute to paying the bill

You’re the last person to accuse someone of being hard to understand #burn Roast aside I meant that what’s the harm in seeing having children as a divine purpose as long as you mainly want them as people and love them properly for who they are

I don’t see how that would be, you’re still having the children becuase you want them as people so you’ll love them properly for how they are

Takes a highly developed conscious person to create such children and make it into a divine purpose

Who is reading alla that

Good. I will use it

Google agrees thanks

@Schizophonia I wanna start counting calories. What’s best in your opinion chronometer or fitness pal?

The government website said Sweden criminalized it and it will begin to be criminal 11th march

I would say I agree. Breeding more people into a good life is a good idea

I don’t value nationality much

Ofc starting a family goes way deeper than some political values. It’s true that it’s wired into us on a biological level. But then it’s a problem when people expect everyone to follow this imprint. There are plenty of things we do today that are “unnatural” , one could say we’re wired to live outside in nature, but we aren’t getting shit for not doing that. Just an example. And yea it seems the pressure is larger on women as if motherhood is seen as more core than fatherhood. I agree with you on the maturity part

I think the stigma around choosing to be childless should go away. It’s not good for children to have parents that didn’t even want them but felt pressured to, hypothetically speaking, if that ever happens. There’s more to life than having children, although there’s value in it ofc. People have hive mind by default , so it shows in this topic.
