 Not a shit or fuck to give today... 
#16235515 - 05/15/12 05:02 PM (1 year, 7 days ago) |
|
|
Some days, like today, I feel deep equanimity toward all that would on an average day, I would allow to bother me...
In this zone this space of being, I see the non-significance of what most of us so desperately and unconsciously hang onto and know that I could leave everything and everyone behind and be o.k... Nothing to tether me here or there, only choice and knowing that there is ultimately no wrong or right decision or way of being human, living or dying.
Not a damn to give about the paltry nature of our woes and means of weaving our own self trappings, whether it be ideological or through praxis...
Hope if you any of you are feeling down trodden today, that this strikes a chord and makes you join me in a joyous laughter at the absurdity of allowing ourselves to be weighed down.
 Life...

I find that giving away my fucks is quite a painful process.
--------------------
"I noticed that the feeling from mxe is better when you refrain from masturbating a day or two before, a few times when I masturbated before usage I got this WEIRD look in my eyes and it caused me to not be able to have eye contact with people, my eyes were more squinted and my face looked more puffy, but without masterbating that day or the day before I felt great, it actually felt somewhat like a different drug.
Anyone notice this?"

When people fuck with me anymore I don't give much of a fuck. In fact I pretty much tell them to fuck off. Had a friend yesterday tell me not to talk about something well fuck you. Don't fucking tell me what not to say. I don't give a fuck if it is in your car and you are a fucking whacko. Pisses me off fucking people think they can tell people what to fucking say.
Fuck.

It very well could be, a period of grace before more chaos. Or the eye of whatever storm I am in right now. Dealing with a bunch of B.S. is what got me to this point, so you very well could be right.
If that is the case, I am just as ready as always.

That's all we can do. At almost 60 years I've seen my up go down every time. That's life.

Yup! I've been here about a little more than a third of the time you've been on the planet, and harshly had to learn that at a very young age... But hey, it's way better than stagnancy in my opinion.
If I didn't have some chaos in my life, I would probably create it myself.
But when shit really sucks...

I actually take the opposite track. By directly looking at the shit and realizing that it's going to be there no matter what I want or think it lessons it's neurotic impact.

I'm very much the same way. I don't think one honestly cruising right until they are able to do this.
My favorite lyric in that song is "Life's a piece of shit, when you look at it."
I've gotten a lot of flack from people for looking at things as they are and pointing it out and accepting it, especially the not so pleasant. Accusing me of holding onto pain and suffering and dwelling in the dark, blah blah blah...
It felt nice when a friend of mine thanked me for teaching her to look at the 'ugly things' as she put it and not being afraid or resistant to it...

I'm about to take a shit, so I will give it to anyone who wants it. Still fresh out of fucks though.

Yea, that's how I see it. I've had a really stressful week, probably the most stressful in a few years. But hey, a part of me knows it is growth. We have to be forced out of our comfort zones once in a while or we might just live our lives on the couch, or maybe worse, in front of the computer. Another part of me goes through the process futility kicking and screaming.
Life is full of a spectrum of thing, good and bad, it is up to us to form the perspective which leads to happiness. I believe that the external is a symbolic reflection of what is going on inside of us - gotta work out that internal alchemy.

Indeed. How we internalize the world and project that outward linguistically, artistically or perceptually is but a mirror to our inward condition and it is in our power to mend, expand or learn to deeply influence this.
