Below is solid advice actually, definitely worth considering. "Be like a rolling stone, that even moss won't be able to grow", old quote of a master.

After reading through the comment section, I could see why the comment could be hidden, because a large part of the comments expressed dislike to Aaron Rabinowitz, so it's possible that Leo's comment could be misinterpreted as leaning more with Aaron, but in fact Leo was talking about something deeper than what Aaron was discussing in the video.

@zurew Nope, still not showing on my end after clicking the newest first. Time to ping @Leo Gura about this, what is going on?

@Rokazulu You mean like the government in Libya?

@zurew Well, I tripled checked again and the comment isn't there, so it's likely that you've captured this comment before it's hidden, and I was a bit late to quote it. I swear it's not there anymore. Yes, I'm aware of both the language problem of words, sentences and paragraphs, in any format including online messages having multiple interpretations, and the epistemological problem of how do we know which tools, methods and ways to address issues of free speech. One simplistic solution, to resolve this issue to near completeness, is that we make the internet and online spaces like real world society, governed by rules, regulations and multiple check points. Despite this, we'll never satisfy some of the groups with more extreme views, but like Leo has said, limitations, government and how society is structured has, throughout history up to now, is pretty efficient in dealing with libertarian and anarchistic types of individuals and groups through various means of policing. Otherwise, we would be like Gotham city with criminals, villains and vigilantes running around.

Probably useful to list some examples of what a hobby is. I'll start: Gaming, which includes categories like video games and game boards like chess. Drawing, with any medium, in any genre, and also sketching and doing coloring books. Golf. Bird watching. watch making. Ultimately, a hobby is meaningful and rejuvenating to do, besides developing skills.

@m0hsen I think it isn't possible, but just in case pm a mod or Leo Gura about it. Have you noticed anything different with the forum recently? I saw a new sub forum and some sub forums have switched.

Am I the only one with a mission statement? No questions about how I started?

@Hardkill That's adversity, which in most cases is meant to be overcome. If you aren't successful in your career, that's adversity. If your job sucks, that's adversity. If you suffered a breakup with a BF/GF, a divorce from your marital partner, that's adversity. If your health and fitness is an issue, that's adversity. if you are in a rut deciding what lifestyle to lead, that's adversity. If you are wondering how to manage your home environment, or are divided in what hobbies or how to entertain yourself, that's adversity. If you are confused and in disagreement with a person or group with different values to you, that's adversity. If you still struggle to understand or empathize with a person who thinks differently than you, that's adversity. If you are offended because someone or a culture has a different moral system than the one you grew up in, that's adversity. If you have psychological barriers, or personality issues and struggle to relate to other personalities, that's adversity. If you find yourself peer pressured into complaining, whining, and gossiping about people or the negative parts of life, and feel too insecure to speak up for yourself, that's adversity. if you suffer from unproductive trans states, and struggle to enter different states of being or emotional states, that's adversity. A problem is like a signal, a signal to call to action, to overcome whatever adversity you come across in life. The point in life, is to live through adversities, because those adversities, most of them, make you a stronger you! The question is, do you want to answer that call to action, or not? Whatever the challenge, meet it head on, or try to. Don't let any other excuses stop you from being a stronger you. Nothing stop Usain Bolt from immigrating from Jamaica to America and pursue a career in sprinting to eventually become a great Olympic runner. Nothing stopped Bruce Lee from becoming an action star and somewhat of a pioneer for combining fitness with martial arts and having insane speed and power for such a small body composition. Nothing stopped Leonardo Da Vinci from continuing to paint and study and innovate other fields of life, no matter what set backs they have had to experience and over come.

@A Fellow Lighter Like a paranormal experience of beauty, and the nice silence in a meditative experience. A feeling of cuteness in your heart. Not the same as a the highest awakening experience.

@Hardkill Aha, I see what you're trying to trap me into, it's unethical to do, but I'll take the bait. If it's not evident to you now, if you keep on focusing the negative stuff and how negative people get away with evil, don't get retribution or whatever, it's time and energy spent mental masturbating on a speculation. Notice how time and energy slips more into a thing or situation you are putting attention on. Notice doing that makes you feel more negative. Now, put that attention on you, and what value you can provide, in a positive light. Notice the difference in quality of time and energy, and how it makes you feel. Yeah, more of that and less of the former, the same with the millions of excuses for not wanting to change attention.

@A Fellow Lighter Yes, I recognize spirit,

@Bobby_2021 This is definitely some of the factors involved in happiness at the collective level.

@Hardkill Probably not. Better to focus on your life purpose and what contributions you want to make, than focusing on evil people.

Here's Destiny's take, I'm not sure what to think of it, after watching it let me know what you guys think of it: https://youtu.be/1rEfBUcQ6ZM

This is a very interesting discussion. Part cringe, part crazy and part meta. Let me know what you make of this: https://youtu.be/dj79XbfM9LU

@Preety_India Of course any place needs some moderation. Anyone who owns a garden and dealt with weeds knows how quickly they grow.

@AndylizedAAY Yes, it's like unless you've had a haunting or some other paranormal event involving some entity, it's very difficult to relate or empathize with some who do experience the paranormal.

@A Fellow Lighter Thanks. I did one time in my childhood had a PlayStation 1 game that had Casper I think she's living off of some of my energy, which is most likely from my attention to her. However, this is not 100% certain, as she seems to be also using different sources of energies as well from what I can tell so far, still learning more. She's not completely a disembodied spirit/soul, as she sometimes shares a room in my mind, and appears besides me from time to time. I'm not sure if it's karmic energy, but not dismissing that could also be another part of her energy use. I'm sure I'm part of her generative energy as most people didn't have a reaction when she was pranking other people, but some I know who are empaths or have this higher intuition, do react weakly to her actions, like they look at her general direction but couldn't tell that she was poking their forehead for example, or tapping their shoulder. She seems, from what she told me so far, that perceiving physical people and other objects is a little bit difficult still, but she has improved this over time, meaning that at some point she was having some difficulty, which is comparable to how my perception to her has improved over time. It's not like she's living with me freely, although she's free in the sense to amuse herself or wonder off to wherever, I'm also involving her in some of my decision making, and creativity processes I have, and basic life, while sharing my general knowledge about the world and people so far. When it comes to spirits and ghosts, what I found more interesting, is if they do exist, how could they still be standing on ground, without falling through the earth? Or, because they're so light, how are they not, like balloons, float or fly off into the sky? Is it because there's a different layer of energy that keeps them still in earth, but still be of a different density to be non-physical?

@itachi uchiha I guess you just keep af it until you're good.

What do you mean stage green is overall more happier than stage orange? I agree if we're comparing Scandinavian countries to western and middle estern countries like the USA and Iran, but when we scale down to the individual level, we can come across people, who're stage orange and below, who lean more to right wing politics, happier than an individual who has stage green values depending on their cognitiive and moral development, states of consciousness, personality typing and life experiences so far. Any differences in those factors, plus any factor that gets in, will change one's experiences of happiness almost no matter how highly developed your value system is, in certain contexts that highly evolved individual, maybe even the group, will experience varying degrees of happiness.

@Ulax Agreed. Hard to tell if someone actually is doing the work from a wall of text or is spiritually trolling.

I don't think it's possible to delete your account, unless the admin does it.

@Arcangelo Doesn't America already have that, with people living off the grid or libertarians?

@Ninja_pig Forgot that, make a video instead, so it'll be hours long too.
