This is definitely what I lack, and I totally agree that community has broken down due to its expansion, and the science backs up the fact that it's bad for us, I think the human brain is capable of remembering 800 faces, some of us may see that many on your into work! There's loads of other stuff too I've seen RU-vid videos! It's hard for infj, time and energy are my enemies, I don't have them so it's hard to commit when opportunities arrive, and then I'm picky, not that most people aren't lovely it's just hard to find people I have that real connection to.
I LOVE the Cheers song! I never used to watch the episode but always listened the opening song then switched over! ☺ 100% agree about lack of community being a major cause of mental health problems. I was talking about this today, funny enough. I think my community of cousins is one of my favourite things about being alive. It's like having in-built friends for life and has kept us stable through deaths, births, illnesses and everything.
You sound like you are in a really beautiful place. I enjoyed hearing about another way of being instead of just running through our lives working to survive. Supportive communities are vital to thriving. I like my space but I love connecting with others. Balance is the key.
so on point...cried this morning cuz leaving Medellin to go back Detroit area...I will miss the plants, fruits, animals and that high level of respect for our fellow man that you see in Colombia and Thailand...thank you Boom
This is very true. I've been isolated for many years now not by choice and it fucking suuuuuuuucks. It's very hard for me to find people I'd even be interested in being friends with now. There's a handful of people on the internet like you that I would actually click well with, but nobody around here where I live. Everybody's a fucking moron or an asshole. Really smart intuitives who have been through some shit are hard to find IRL.
Glibly, I just now listened to Black flies by Ben Howard from Life is Strange soundtrack, which has the words "No Man is an Island". I totally agree with your sentiment, though. It feels really weird that indivdualists would be the ones to draw attention to this worrying trend away from community, but it's an important issue for Western countries as well.
Chiang Mai sounds great! And we do need the balance, but it's hard to balance out something when it goes too far left or right...then we need extra alone time. 🤔
Not much of community based mentality in my country (Poland), maybe that's why there's this nationalistic mindset emerging... I would love to be a part of community like the one you described. I know I have to be more open to people to make it possible :)
I am part of a religious community the United Pentecostal Church. I have a church family i get together with 5 times a week and it is very helpful for me and gives me a sense of having many friends and family. They are very friendly nice people. Studies proove that people who go to church regularly are happier!
Luke 14:26 “If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple." - Jesus Luke 12:51 "Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division." - Jesus Your religion is why people are so divided. The only good thing about Christians is that most of them are hypocrites that don't practice what they preach.
