About George Floyd Death As there is a video of George Floyd resisting his arrest and saying that he couldn't breathe before being put to the ground I was a bit hesitant about this case. I wasn't sure if Derek Chauvin should be hold accountable because George Floyd looked very unstable. Also, when we are in the moment things can go much faster than we think and we lack perspective and awareness. However, I watched the video below today and I was shocked. I never watched this part entirely before, I only saw a few minutes. This man is being killed on the street, he literally peed on himself, he called for help, he called for his mom, but the cops remain indifferent like robots. Kneeling with the entire body weight on someone's neck for more than 8 minutes is way too excessive even if this person resisted an arrest. Derek Chauvin needs to go to jail, progress needs to be made. This is not something personal, everyone is a victim here, everyone is incompetent, biased, and unconscious. Consciousness is ruthless and brutal and consciousness creates the necessary consequence so that it can evolve. This country is sick. I can feel its sickness from the other side of the planet and the entire world feels its sickness. The US is like a narcissist who hides its true face behind a mask.

I think that if I take full responsibility I can heal 80% - 90% of my traumas in ~2 years. I mostly have minor to moderate traumas and maybe one or two periods where I experienced intense traumas. I think that I can resolve them, it will liberate a lot of pain and allow me to do much better in life. I really want to get this right. I will start with Breathwork and Forgiveness, I will alternate Forgiveness and Breathwork every day until I see enough effects. Breathwork is one of the most powerful practices that I discovered in the past few years. I tried Forgiveness a few times too and it was very powerful. I will then try other things: journaling, I will create a journal entirely dedicated to my traumas; therapy, I will contact Nahm to have some sessions; EFT Tapping, I never tried this, but it looks very powerful. I will not be meditating that much, or maybe I'll do... I'm not sure. I will adapt anyway to what I see as necessary.

@Zigzag Idiot And me too. Many times I protected myself by not engaging on this forum that much and just journaling in my bubble because I was afraid of sharing my ideas and making mistakes here. I think this is an issue that many people have to different degrees.

Yes, definitely. I often noticed that in your posts so I try to avoid communicating with you. Also don't remove your boundaries too, find a proper balance, try to calibrate yourself a bit more every day.

Chiropractic Adjustment This is incredible.

I noticed that I try to deal with this problem with two things: Internet, in particular the use of this forum Masturbation I recently tryed to completly cut off unecessary internet usage inclucing the use of this forum during the day and I also tryed to change my fapping habit. It resulted in a lot of pain and fear and an entire week of sleepless nights. I'm not sure if I should go through it, or do more trauma releasing work, maybe both.

I continue to feel a lot of pain and a lot of fear every day inside me.

@Etherial Cat Do you think that the extensive use of sarcasm and humour in French culture when speaking of people of other background is a form of masquerated racism? I was surprised the first time that I heard French people speaking like that about others and about me. After a point I got accustomed to it and considered that normal and started to make jokes with those people. I didn't saw these people as racists, but as friends who don't take things too seriously. However I had a boss in the past who made so much of these jokes that I saw that it made people uncomfortable, but I had difficulties to discern if it was racist or not.

The Power of Infinite Love Some years ago when I was a student living in Europe I experienced a pretty remarkable moment. I don't remember how nor why, but I was feeling immense deep existential joy that day. The kind of joy that we only feel a few times in an entire life, I was so happy that it was overwhelming. I decided to go outside and sat on a bench, I was contemplating and experiencing existential happiness, I was smiling in the void. At a moment a woman in her 30s or 40s came to me and asked me if she could sit on the bench too, I responded yes. I was surprised because they were other benches. It was the first time that a stranger would sit with me even if they were other benches available. The woman didn't look as happy as I was and I understood she didn't choose the bench randomly, but rather because she wanted love. I didn't know what to do, nor what to say at that time, I felt like she wanted to have a conversation, that she wanted to be understood, that she wanted to get some comfort, that she wanted some love, but I didn't know what to do and I stayed there experiencing existential joy. We sat like this for maybe 20 - 30 minutes, then she chooses to go and told me "Goodbye". I stayed on the bench, then after some minutes an old couple appeared and sat aside me. Again they were other benches and sitting on another one would have been better because we were now three and they started to have a private conversation. We sat like this for maybe 20 - 30 minutes, I was experiencing infinite joy and they were having their normal conversation. At the moment, I choose to move because I was sitting there since at least an hour. The man looked at me and asked with a big smile: "You are going? I hope that it's not because of us?". I responded no and told them that I was sitting there since an hour. I went back to my apartment and continued my day normally. People want happiness in their life. They want joy, they want deep genuine authentic existential acceptance. That's what life is about. Infinite happiness is like a magnet, it attracts everyone without discrimination. More people would probably have come to me if I sat that way for the entire day. I think that it's possible to meet a lot of people that way, to learn a lot about people, and to have many interesting conversations. I also think that it's possible to make a lot of friends like this and even get a girlfriend.

I live in an African country and I consider it to be more developed than most countries on the planet. Of course, it's not as developed as Europe or North America and people are mostly at stage blue, but it's overall better than Asia, South America and the rest of Africa. I consider it to be safer than the US. We don't get shot in the street and we have free health care for everyone. I don't think that European exploitation of Africa is the only reason for the general lack of development. Europe was already more advanced than most of Africa before the first encounters, Europe was already at stage blue where Africa was mostly at stage purple. Leo mentioned in the past that the geography and difficult natural conditions of the continent is behind the low development, I agree with him and I think that it's the best explanation so far. Many things influences human development: geography, meteorological conditions, the plants and animals around, even the food that people eat.

I'm integrating green better and better every day, especially when it comes to understanding emotions.

Experiencing Cravings When we try to drop a bad habit or an addiction we always feel some cravings, and we usually try to deal with them by resisting them... but it doesn't work. I recently noticed that it's better to embrace cravings rather than resisting them. Cravings aren't good or bad, but a natural emotional response from the body. Someone needs to go through emotions to grow. What I also noticed is that experiencing cravings feels better than resisting cravings and makes things much easier and faster. So... when dealing with cravings, sit and experience all the difficult emotions. Feel them, embrace them, go through them until you burn them.

I find feminity sometimes more attractive than a good look. There's a pornstar that I watch sometimes, I don't know what happened to her but she is now so hypermasculine that even if she is a 10 in terms of look I don't find her attractive.

My biggest joke is that I don't know how to make jokes.

I'll understand that I'm highly intelligent I'll understand that my intelligence can make people fearful I'll nurture my intelligence I'll use my intelligence to help others my intelligence would skyrocket I'll easily deal with life I'll combine thoughts, emotions, intuition, and awareness together I'll be ruthless effective in life I'll create infinite joy If I deny and disown my intelligence...
