Hey, a great rabbit hole :)
I diagonalread your article. Hopefully will come back later and read it again, slowly.
Do you know what distincts humans from animals? We humans tell stories about ourselves. We also tend to exaggerate and prettify these stories. And we believe our own lies. That's how we are made.
Another distinction, that we share with other apes, is that we try to take benefit of every situation that we are in. We try to change the circumstances to benefit us. We control others to our benefit. Isn't this the gist of our society and civilization?
Why have my ramblings to do with your laugh escapades? I don't know :)
I am just happy that you really know how to laugh and have fun. No matter where no matter when. You stayed your inner child which is an ultimate achievement in this controlled by the logic world.
Congratulations!
Yeah, thanks for that info! I am thinking heavy on this topic! I'm getting out of my suffering! The human mind feels so weak and vulnerable.....I have been really living, or not living, outside of my mind! It's really disturbing how bad it has gotten. I am trying to make friends again, and now i see how much of live i have missed. Friendships based on authentic truth is essential for life.
yeah, we tend to try to make it all about us...sad isn't!!!
I don't take it as sad. It is a defence mechanism of sorts. It is all about conservation of energy, a basic natural law. Why? It is easier to live in lie than to try and make a difference, to make a change in your life. It is all about stepping out of your comfort zone, no matter how fake and full of lies it is.
You are making friends here. I don't have to tell you the recipe. Here it comes anyways, in case anybody else is reading these ramblings :)
Be yourself!
When you are a fake, then your friends are fake friends too. Look at all these social networks. Need I say more?
