not-a-faerie

I am no expert of course, but personally I expect people of all backgrounds are often unhealthy regardless of whatever they're doing but rather because of their upbringing and how it affects their feelings and thoughts and actions. I don't know how often that is though. It could be 1 in 4 or more, from my thoughts. A lot of people get caught up in anger, judgment, or embarrassment, or subdued. and other things like that. They say these things are a result of trauma. I feel like happiness is found in community more than anything else, but I have heard that those without wealth are prone to struggle with mental health due to the stress of being poor, so having your basic needs is in that way connected to unhealthiness

personally, I find meaning in two places; one is when I practice mindful awareness of the present moment. And the other is when I get caught up in emotions and thoughts. meaning as a goal isn't something I pursue, though. What I really want is to find meaning in the operation of my goals, does that make sense? those are where I find meaning.

what does it matter, is my point. every holds beliefs, and a lot of people get caught up in that, in fact id say most people do. my only desire is to emphasise the open minded approach rather than arguing needlessly over subjective ideas.

I'm talking about the views he preaches on. He just assumes he knows all people, but it is clear he is out of touch with a lot of people's perspectives. just because he's good at supporting people with addiction doesn't mean he's good at other things.

i don't need a map to be on the territory

maybe it is acreative thing, an expression of both through how they match with the other. I would assume they do not say, "here is a key we need a lock" but instead take clay and form the key and lock based on each other. but I've never been or researched the topic, so this is just a wild guess

I notice suffering and encourage being. truth is not some idea it is existence true nah not so. either way you have the same effect. if the outcome is the same what does it matter the path? the wise guru says nothing because there is nothing to be said. the disciple gets angry because they need need need. anyway, observation is not being. criticism and observation function the same way..... I will criticise as much as I want. I like indulging.

i like it. time to work very hard to make it better.

I like to want death and by like I mean it's painful. I actually prefer to be absorbed in existence. Distraction is the way, because distraction is passion. I am not passionate for death, I simply feel a need to escape what hurts. I do not have a threat to myself because I know that death is not the way. There is no point in telling people to embrace suicide, and you saying it kinda misses the point of suffering to the point of needing escape. you say you "So please understand I'm not advocating suicide or urging anyone to commit suicide. " but then do it, how funny you are! I am not wit the answer though. All I know is what keeps me embracing life.

the truth has no objective or pursuit falsehood is fun I like this prevailed how. the truth just is the concept of delusion is kind of silly IMO. ideas are just as true as blacking things out. when we dive deep into something consciousness goes lower. we are too focused to notice what is. and when we are mindful of it, we seem to miss out on the the absorption of something to the point of mindlessness. we do have an obsession with being right,, though, so be it.

what is "woke" What is belief? what is the sense of higher existence? woke is simply existence it self. concepts and ideas aren't that

I just want agency and fulfillement. the other things are just pleasure and consumption. I don't mind pursuing them of course, but the point is as it is, they are not what makes us happey.

people don' tunderstand infinity infinity has constraints infinity isn't everything existence is like infinity. it is constrained to be a certain way. we don't know there is things we can never experience. what's the point in denying that we can't imagine what we can't imageni

this is a good point the stoics teach the obstacle is the way. Literally. If there is n obstacle, the only two paths we can take is either to let it block us and look for a different path without it, or to face it head on and dive right in to the obstacle and let its existence be our path forward. Then, the obstacle directs our attention, our path. the obstacle is the path itself.

stubbornnes doesn't get us anywhere. I don't have an answer to your question of when to quit and when not to. Perhaps we follow what is receiving rewards. What is working? We don't need everything to go our way. but think not of being stubborn. Look to follow what works instead of what hurts. if it hurts, look elsewhere. If we can't pay the bills, look elsewhere. a hobby is not a career path Finding a way in life is difficult.

How is it immature to think and talk and hold beliefs. This is thinking. processing reasoning. interacting. MAture things. think not of things as mature or immature and don't fool yourself into thinking your righteous way of thinking is any different from theirs. I am not good at it yet but I focus on just being to the point that I hold myself to nothing. My thoughts are not any better or worse than any others, and thoughts aren't what's true anyway. only existence is true, I suppose thoughts exist within that though. Why isn't everything anyone says true? it basically is. silly to try to debate our beliefs unto others. Silly to put people beneath us. When I sit with someone we are equals, even if we disagree. feel free to continue to hold your standards. I don't have anything on you

It's like he doesn't understand the perspectives of others and just forces his assumptions on others. that is not logic.

I am the judge of the universe. Every thought I have is correct. Anyone else is a fool.

I've never found his thoughts and reasonings to be necessarily true or logical. I find other people are more educational. He has an agenda, and I am not here to be swept away in people's agendas. I'm sure I could watch his videos and find interesting thoughts, but I prefer others.

I don't mind. I think it is silly, sure, and I am tempted to speak of peace and agreeableness. but that is not important. when I come here all I want is to experience thoughts I have difficulty thinking myself. It's crazy how creative my dreams are, when in wakefulness I struggle to imagine such things.

it's perfectly ok to care about fulfilling tasks, needs, pursuits, goals, what have you. To say that something has no meaning is not really a necessary insight to have. If you care about something, move forward in its pursuit. it doesn't matter if you do or do not. sit in torpor if it suits you. or, act regardless of whether or not it matters, simply for the experience of taking a step. They say to take things one step at a time, and in fact there is no other way about it. Accept yourself as you are. idk I just think. what do I do? I fall into torpor. I hope to change this, but I myself can feel lost or unenthusiastic. I often find myself not caring about fulfilling tasks, needs, pursuits. I find myself daunted by imagining all that must be done to accomplish something my mind obsesses over. What meaning there is - is to accept oneself and remain conscious of what is. or not. it's up to you ( and myself as well)

to be sad that nothing matters is to cling to the idea that something matters. You don't truly see "nothing matters" as long as you cling to the belief that something must matter, that there must be purpose. When there is no purpose, when truly nothing matters, all there is is the present moment left unjudged. I recently watched a thoughtful video talking about how people learn. When we see failure as a cost, as a price, as something that states about us one way or another, we focus too much on being averse to it. When we focus on our goals and our attempts and moving forward regardless of failure, we have a much higher chance of learning and succeeding, and our experience is more pleasant. more in flow and less in anxiety. this is to say that when we worry over what is and what can be, what should be and what to make of it, all we do is take ourselves out of flow. but does it matter? no. Do as you wish.

I simply wonder if there are things I could never experience. I simply wonder if there are things I can never imagine. If there are, I would never know as such.

I have a few things i want to work on where I don’t really understand why I’m like this, for example I seem to be really averse to meeting new people despite feeling lonely and wanting an irl friend. I also tend to avoid talking with my online friends some times too. I’m working on stuff with a therapist of course but I’m hoping for some pointers on self discover through contemplation and visualization. And anything else. Idk what to expect or where to begin. I googled it but it was a bunch of personality tests.

It is for nothing. Suffering has no purpose. Don’t waste your time trying to change what you have no control over. Don’t waste your energy trying to make shit edible.
