How does anyone else deal with the fact that humans made everything up and that it is only our minds that make anything perceivably real?
The fact that it is all a bunch of self serving hypocritical rubbish to ensure our own survival.
And even upon that understanding our perceptions are limited....
I find such a misplaced expectation in the world from a biological standpoint.

What would it be like to experience the world without that automatic self driver?

St David’s Day today in the UK! Which is a Welsh thing. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

St David was a Welsh bishop born in the 12th Century who was supposedly a very good man and bishop and is a day to celebrate him plus all things Welsh. This day was typically called ‘The Feast of St David.’

Thanks to journaling, I've gotten everything that is bad out to be written in my journal, and now, my life is better today than all days before! I love that the feelings are out now!

Hey Blaze!

Nice to see you around! A lot of changes in our lives in the last few years for everyone.

Covid killed a lot of things. Friends and friendships.

People reevaluating what is important to them.

In the last year, I have lost or gotten rid of a lot of people. Friends and family. I have been to six funerals. Missed going to a few more, had to work. Those that didn’t die, the relationship did.

It is a new world. Adapting to the changes, is challenging.

I used to say I like change. But the changes are not the kind that I could like.

Kuebler Ross says acceptance is the last stage of death. I guess that works for the loss of relationships with friends as well as death of them.

Covid killed, just not in the way that that we would expect. It killed the heart and soul. Governments should be ashamed, for the spectacle they created. Sadly, most won’t even see, what was done to them. They don’t see that deep.

This year is looking much better already financially. Except that there will be more funerals. I am friends with and am related to a lot of vaccinated elderly. I tire of wearing black.

Anyways, hope you are well.

Ah. Change is the only constant. Clouds never remain. Like them, dislike them - clouds will always be clouds. Going about their own way.

Because of my practice, I no longer have worldly friendships. I'm quite boring because of it, but the fruitless tree rests in peace. Taking care of my parents keeps me in the worldly sphere, though I'm always careful not to fall into hermit-like habits. It's very easy to become enamored by solitude.

But I've said too much. I fear that may come off as preachy. If so, forgive me, friend. There's only so many ways one such as I can say it's good to hear from you. :D

It’s alright, my Mother is one of those I lost last year. As well as her brother, and sister. In the first 3 months.

Transformative’s. Pluto my second strongest planet was very busy last year. Now it is moving on.

Take care of your family, and enjoy the time you have with them.

Sorry, as yesterday I'm not well at the afternoon and had to sleep early, because I had an headache since when I came back home from school. (I posted exactly a post yesterday, and it's 3AM now because I slept too early, so I woke up early, too.)
