Trust me, that's why we have to go through a slight variant of the same circumstance again and again.

 

[Lila]

That one makes me laugh.
Yeah, everything is different when I change something crucial. Still looks the same, just feels different.

To see the inner beauty of a person. Always my point of view. You may not be pretty but you can be so beautiful in the inner self. The real beeing of self

"...the physical plane is only the plane of the effects and never of the causes, so that what exists at the physical level, is always a reflection of what exists at the level higher."

“This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.”

I have done as you suggest, and the glorious thing about it is nobody really cares! People are scared of what society will think of success or failure, but I know - I've gotten away with it, and I know it wasn't really failing but just the story line I decided to play out, and it gives colouration to all my experiences added together. I don't personally feel lesser for having made those plays and them not playing out the way I thought they would. It's only when I try to explain a sequence of events it sounds like a fail, but when I am just in the now with no thought of the past, my being is big, bright and abundant.

While reading this, a feeling came over me that it is a wonderful privilege to be human.
To experience all the different emotions. All the ups and downs of a human life.
To experience the opposite of love, namely, fear. To overcome fear and rejoice.
And..... to experience being a perfectly divine, very human mess.
There are many who have never, and will never get the opportunity.

Don’t know if I’m right, but that’s how I felt.

That one pretty much sums up any 'unusual' perception.
Something along the lines of ... If it's not shared it's not real to the bulk of people. Therefore, the person with that unacknowledged perception must be insane?

BTW, is Sinera Arenis your avatar? Did she write stuff about 'truth' and beliefs, etc like you have in your byline below your posts?
I'm curious.

Yes. It's me allowing myself the self-obsessed hybris of self-quote. Evil me.


(If you haven't noticed: Arenis as 'last name' is just Sinera backwards , I like the look and sound of it, also Arenis (only) is another avatar now of mine in another forum.)

The content was a reaction (I admit certainly done one moment on a whim) to a lot of past posts, discussions and stories I saw (... and see ...) here but don't want to (or feel I am not allowed to) discuss or comment anymore on. It probably would not end well, either. Probably would be banned even in the long run for just being honest and too 'direct'.


So therefore at least I write a reminder or a statement to whoever may stumble across it, as a kind of 'balance', also for myself. It's my solution to now staying rather 'quiet' on these posts, topics and 'stories' otherwise.

Well, at least I try to. It is not easy sometimes.


Sad but true. But okay. I can live with it.

And since this is the Quote-Thread, here I conclude now officially with a quote:

I like the last one I added by singer and poet Till Lindemann a lot because it also applies so well to my own state of permanent low depression (or rather basic 'blues' / weltschmerz / melancholy) and my art creation which helps it sometimes:

 

[Snowmelt]

There is existential pain, but who wants to wallow in it? Rise above it. (... bloody weltschmerz!!!)

 

[Sinera]

There is existential pain, but who wants to wallow in it? Rise above it. (... bloody weltschmerz!!!)

That is exactly why any kind of creativity or art helps to rise above it. Or to convert it, use it, turn it into something better, something good at least. Be the alchemist who's turning sh*** into gold.

Yes. Grey cat with green eyes is the best colour combo, IMO. You nailed it.
