I love my solitude. It gives me a deep perspective of my purpose. I reflect on how my wife's thought process would interpret situations. She always had a deep perspective and put a great deal of thought before she made a decision.
Seems everything leads to tyranny …Man is just a fearful controlling being (not all obviously) I’m talking about ones in power ..this life is to prove we can not live without God . He will return and we will see .
We have giving all our essentials in the hands of other men and govt it’s all big business now all our food all our water all our knowledge …now they hold us hostage …I just want to live on a ranch and live off the land it’s very very hard to break away from this bullshit so many regulations and taxes
Planet Earth is a failed state. My mother was far more evil than my father but nothing can be done about our condition. We may be swamped in science but we are hairless apes. Good is merely the attempt but it's essentially unacheivable no matter the prayers I say, western civillization has a thriving industry in war, organized murder, and often you don't get your hands dirty or even know how many you killed. Men are overt and women are covert and human sexuality was the only thing that held us together but now with a number of genders and women fighting for the right to extinguish their unborn children,so by our own effort Heaven is a very lonely place.
A lot of this sounds like the kind of new world order the psychopathic UN and World Economic Forum want. Disguising totalitarianism as equality and sustainability.
I am not a "Bible-basher", but this psalm is poignant: Psalm 37. Noli aemulari. FRET not thyself because of the ungodly; * neither be thou envious against the evil doers. 2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, * and be withered even as the green herb. 3 Put thou thy trust in the LORD, and be doing good; * dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. 4 Delight thou in the LORD, * and he shall give thee thy heart's desire. 5 Commit thy way unto the LORD, and put thy trust in him, * and he shall bring it to pass. 6 He shall make thy righteousness as clear as the light, * and thy just dealing as the noon-day. 7 Hold thee still in the LORD, and abide patiently upon him: * but grieve not thyself at him whose way doth prosper, against the man that doeth after evil counsels. 8 Leave off from wrath, and let go displeasure: * fret not thyself, else shalt thou be moved to do evil. 9 Wicked doers shall be rooted out; * and they that patiently abide the LORD, those shall inherit the land. 10 Yet a little while, and the ungodly shall be clean gone: * thou shalt look after his place, and he shall be away. 11 But the meek-spirited shall possess the earth, * and shall be refreshed in the multitude of peace. 12 The ungodly seeketh counsel against the just, * and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. 13 The Lord shall laugh him to-scorn; * for he hath seen that his day is coming. 14 The ungodly have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, * to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be upright in their ways. 15 Their sword shall go through their own heart, * and their bow shall be broken. 16 A small thing that the righteous hath, * is better than great riches of the ungodly. 17 For the arms of the ungodly shall be broken, * and the LORD upholdeth the righteous. 18 The LORD knoweth the days of the godly; * and their inheritance shall endure for ever. 19 They shall not be confounded in the perilous time; * and in the days of dearth they shall have enough. 20 As for the ungodly, they shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall consume as the fat of lambs: * yea, even as the smoke shall they consume away. 21 The ungodly borroweth, and payeth not again; * but the righteous is merciful and liberal. 22 Such as are blessed of God, shall possess the land; * and they that are cursed of him, shall be rooted out. 23 The LORD ordereth a good man's going, * and maketh his way acceptable to himself. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be cast away; * for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand. 25 I have been young, and now am old; * and yet saw I never the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging their bread. 26 The righteous is ever merciful, and lendeth; * and his seed is blessed. 27 Flee from evil, and do the thing that is good; * and dwell for evermore. 28 For the LORD loveth the thing that is right; * he forsaketh not his that be godly, but they are preserved for ever. 29 The unrighteous shall be punished; * as for the seed of the ungodly, it shall be rooted out. 30 The righteous shall inherit the land, * and dwell therein for ever. 31 The mouth of the righteous is exercised in wisdom, * and his tongue will be talking of judgment. 32 The law of his God is in his heart, * and his goings shall not slide. 33 The ungodly watcheth the righteous, * and seeketh occasion to slay him. 34 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, * nor condemn him when he is judged. 35 Hope thou in the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall promote thee, that thou shalt possess the land: * when the ungodly shall perish, thou shalt see it. 36 I myself have seen the ungodly in great power, * and flourishing like a green bay-tree. 37 I went by, and lo, he was gone: * I sought him, but his place could no where be found. 38 Keep innocency, and take heed unto the thing that is right; * for that shall bring a man peace at the last. 39 As for the transgressors, they shall perish together; * and the end of the ungodly is, they shall be rooted out at the last. 40 But the salvation of the righteous cometh of the LORD; * who is also their strength in the time of trouble. 41 And the LORD shall stand by them, and save them: * he shall deliver them from the ungodly, and shall save them, because they put their trust in him.
Im ok with putting my body through the paces but mentally if something isn't working as far as any mechanical or technical gadgets in my life its a complete total meltdown! Thats a form of comfort zone expectation thinking everything is gonna work as intended all time. Totally unrealistic!!! I need help!!!
It's not comfort that's the problem it's our broken late stage capitalist system that endorses and sells for profit all of these extremely unhealthy lifestyles. Pain isn't what we need it's a new system that promotes community and healthy clean life styles together.
There is no such thing as free pleasure. There is always a price to be paid. The best kind of pleasure is through persistence through suffering, working towards a goal of some kind. The pleasure of achieving that goal, is what dopamine was designed for. Opioid withdrawals can cause anhedonia. That's one of the hardest symptoms to deal with, for me at least, b/c the lack of endorphins makes it impossible to feel happy at all. Another good pleasure that can be achieved is a rite of passage, through a psychedelic experience or something heroing, like a bullet ant ritual. The closeness to death, along with the connection to the subconscious (psychedelics), forces the devils within our psychiatry to the surface, and forces us to confront them. The heroic dose experience is akin to dying and being reborn, with no weight on your shoulders, b/c you deal with all those demons. Something I think everybody who isn't predisposed to shizophrenia should endure at least once.
I like the video and its message but I don't think "pain" is the right word for what's being described here. More like difficulty, discomfort, unease, resistance, fear, whatever you need to move a situation forward or change it. Being forced to get off the couch, I suppose this is a sort of pain, but then there is REAL pain, suffering, and loss. There is a difference between basic challenges that can be overcome and levels of suffering that are unimaginable, unendurable to the average person. One should respect the gravity of that and be conscious of it when declaring "pursue pain." If you have a choice in your pain you are damn lucky, because usually it just lands on people.
Overly dramatic video. ASPD is the modern nomenclature for this condition, "psychopath" is still a Hollywood term. Furthermore, everything is a scale and situation dependent. You make it sound like "psychopathy" is black and white, but it's not. In reality you have a number of traits, have enough of those traits and you *may* qualify for ASPD. But it's also situation dependent, many highly qualified people have the ability to switch as the need of society changes. We're talking about the loving family father who may have to axle the mantle of a ruthless businessman to save a failing company from collapse. Or the fireman who doesn't save everyone in a burning building because doing so would put his own life at severe risk. Is the the ruthless businessman who saves a company a psychopath? Or is the fireman who plans not only to survive this fire, but 100 more like it? Things are rarely black and white.
People think there's a political system where we can all live in peace and relative prosperity... There isn't, and there will never be. The whole point of civilization is to fight against nature and natural selection. This means that dumb people that who fail to make their own tools, build their own home, grow their own food, create their own entertainment, and plan their own contingencies remain among us, and can install those who would steal our resources and remove accountability, instead of dying long ago to their own inadequacy when they should have. Some of you may say I'm heartless. I say you're lazy and laying the burden of your survival on the rest of us.
No, history shows me that I injure very easily and injury means non-negotiable down time. The best exercise is the one you do regularly and doesn’t feed into the abyss of chronic injury.
Pain is a teacher. Pleasure is a friend. Both are important for a fulfilling life. I don’t subscribe to this toxic buddhist/Catholic philosophy of asceticism. It doesn’t amount to anything positive. Ask any of these people if they are happy and they won’t be able to give you a straight answer.
Good stuff. Except some suffering is not caused by ourselves. And laziness can have positive effects. A better and easier way of doing things may be discovered. Laziness, like most things may be ok in moderation.
Was called too old at 50! Started training in crumbling garage lifting rocks doing pushups on paint cans pullups on beams got ripped af at 53 years old!!!
I know the brain and what it consists of and you don't because your looking for a way how it works where as I enjoy the use of its treasure all your confusion on how things work make it so weird no one can understand your crap no wonder humans are on the way out ya dummies
The way I see things is that the only meaning to life is the one we give it ourselves. I was nothing, really one part of me was in my father’s DNA and the other was in my mom. Until these two things came together (excuse the pun 😊) I truly did not exist at all. The meaning of my life is what I did with this gift that was given to me. Once i leave this existence the basic elements that made me what I was will return to the Universe maybe to live another life in the future and maybe not? My conscience, that will go with me, since I am not a very famous person once my children or my grand children are also gone I will no longer be remembered and it will be like I never existed. But that doesn’t really bother me because in the end we will all be forgotten at one point in the future. Some will be remembered for a while but if we are fair in a million years from now humanity will have been forgotten, just other part of the Universe that was and is now gone
