Yea

I don’t understand what you mean or what it has to do with my response

65: Ive been using the forum less. It’s mostly because I struggle with having a pretty empty mind so I don’t feel like I have anything to add and then reading feels kinda pointless too. I’m very quiet in real life too. Ive been playing a lot of Minecraft recently it’s kinda fun. I’m in survival mode and found diamonds in some villagers house so that was pretty cool. Tonight I will bake saffron buns and play some more Just some random facts.

Yea becuase your brain is literally wired for socialization. You get dopamine from good interactions with people you like. It might sound obvious what you and I say but sometimes seemingly obvious things can be deep new insights. Whats crazy about socialization is that sometimes even the mere presence of another human being is enough to make you feel fulfilled of that need for socialization. Like how it is to live with family for me, we don’t even have to talk.

Ok understood

So what are feelings then if not emotions?

Feel as in physical sensation or emotion? So cellular organisms have emotions? What?

That’s why I wrote the two most precious things is good mental and physical health (although mental health is for most people dependent on certain circumstances so it can’t be singled out like that)

Me neither

No problem Okay good Yea you must have in order to write this

Sometimes the seemingly obvious things can be deep insights. But it seems to me it’s just a way to comfort oneself of the need to feel loved

Thinking no woman will love you is likely due to low self esteem. The reality is there is probably someone for everyone, there’s people of both genders at all walks of life. It can be a comforting thought for someone who needs to feel loved by women for his self esteem. Wanting to feel loved is natural but it’s not always sustainable and will lead to eventual heartbreak. But that’s the melody of life that few escape, the impermanence.

It’s fine

It was a very cool text even if I don’t get the concepts. Were you able to write this because you have studied the concepts from various teachers?

Because society puts beauty on a pedestal so you've been conditioned to do so, and maybe because you lack experience with women that would demystify them for you

How am I gonna be able to study nutrition if I can't even get this

she’s cute so thanks. And she seems really smart. I won’t become vegan, I don’t know much about Jung to have an opinion😅

Everyone has a sense of mysticism about life. And many ascribe that to a god. And to imagine god as being this separate entity you worship suits the human mind that experiences itself as separate

👍🏻

Nah, I just think he’s one of a kind, like one in a billion type of person, there’s nobody like him from what I’ve seen. I like in particular his self centered approach, how he considers the purpose is life to be bettering oneself

I don’t know many “thinkers” in general so I didn’t have much to pick from. I haven’t read his book either. But I picked him because I like his message of mental toughness, he has an incredibly strong mindset, truly one in a billion type of person, and in particular I like his self centered approach, he has said things like “the purpose is you” how the purpose in life is bettering oneself. I tend to be very self centered too. He is very straight forward and “simple” which is unlike other thinkers which have more complex ideas. He is not so much of a thinker rather a “doer” one could say so maybe not the best pick for this category but I still wanted to mention him.

No it was when I was under 10 years old . I was awake though so not during sleep paralysis, it was cool. I saw the same entity maybe twice

Lol thanks for answering my mystery

😹😹 Maybe twice I also saw “shadow people” a black silhouette standing in the door way, floating across the room. I wonder if it was hallucination or genuinely some entity

Something I’ve noticed in myself is that if I just eat when I’m genuinely hungry, I won’t eat much and often at all. It’s like my body wants to be lean. I eat nowadays twice a day but on weekends I’ll even eat once a day sometimes and it feels enough. Fasting is healthy but I feel there’s something about a caloric deficit that can be healthy too. Like it feels better to not stuff yourself, to eat less. It feels like the body gets to clear itself out more. There’s something about just eating what you absolutely need and not more that seems healthy to me. I haven’t done research into this but I think I’ve heard somewhere that fasting increases autophagy (your bodies cellular recycling system) which is healthy but that a caloric deficit does the same thing. I wonder why people get hungry so often. I don’t eat often as I said but I have amazing energy levels. I understands if someone works out a lot but I don’t get how people get so hungry they need to eat like 5 times a day. I have some guesses, maybe if someone is stressed that takes more energy in general so they feel more hungry, or if they’re not sleeping too well it makes them more hungry. Or because a lot of food today is hyper palatable so they’re not even genuinely hungry it’s more a craving mistaken for hunger. I also posted a topic a while back about the minds role in diet. And I accidentally stumbled across this video on insta that explained it really well: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDdaryOyaKc/?igsh=MzQ5NGIwMnE4eHlj
