hTx said: preach prēCH/ verb gerund or present participle: preaching
1. deliver a sermon or religious address to an assembled group of people, typically in church.
ser·mon ˈsərmən/ noun noun: sermon; plural noun: sermons
1. a talk on a religious or moral subject, esp. one given during a church service and based on a passage from the Bible.

Its not preaching, its simply the truth. You cannot debate it because the logic is sound. This annoys you. What is spiritual about defining love for ones self as the betterment of ones self? What is philosophical about it?
Many have said love for ones self is acceptance and why change what you love? Why fix what ain't broken?
I say that this is only part of the story, to come into acceptance we must get past denial. That we are broken. That true love (can we agree on this much?) is an intense affection, a caring, for anything or anyone. This means that you do not wish to harm but to better. Why do we find it hard to love ourselves? Why do we suffer so?
What is it within us that harms us? Lack of intelligence? Something metaphysical, perhaps?
To love oneself is to better oneself, to better oneself is to better humanity. Why do we debate philosophy and mysticism if not to better ourselves?
Ignore me if it makes you happy. Filter out what makes you uncomfortable. We do so already, and so, in comfort, we can feel as if we are on top of things. Even if we are most definitely not.
For the past two months, ever since my surgery, I had somehow gotten addicted to heroin...something I was adamant about curing! How foolish I am. Literally the day before I shot up heroin for the first time I was on the shroomery posting about how I wanted to start an underground treatment movement..and than I ended up becoming what I sought to cure.
"Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." Friedrich Nietzsche
The truth of this statement has never been more clear, as it happened to me, and I think here it happened as well. Off-topic but, I am curious.. You once said "I like you, cheers." with a 5 shroom rating that you retracted. Not that it really matters, but what happened?
Now, every post I make, although I have not changed positions in regards to what I post, you seek to mock me.
Why?
I point out something pretty simple, that we must take full responsibility for our condition, and only when we do this can we progress, only when you want the best will you seek betterment. That something within myself has lied to me as to whats best. If that something has lied to me, than surely it must be lying to another. I think the debate lies in whats best. The ideal.
Do we know whats best? Can we?
I do not know what is best, but I know the direction I was heading in was not it. Perhaps whats best is that simple.
Direct away from all harm.

The only thing simple is the choice to direct myself away from self-harm..alas, you are right, it truly is not that simple nor that easy.
There seems two paths, one traveled by most, and is thus set and easy to follow, and another not trampled by many.
The wide path, the easy one, for myself at-least, was the one which caused the most suffering..and yet through suffering I have found the road less traveled. The constant betterment of self, in all aspects, and the realization of the harm of which I was putting myself through.
Forgive me, for I know not what I do.
I am foolish and I am suffering.
I numbed myself to negative emotion, because it feels so bad. The 'meditation' I thought I was doing was simply an avoidance, a cowards way out of dealing with trauma. Vegging out the feels. Lashing out against all...I see now, my condition. My conundrum. My need to help and be helped. My egotistical unconscious one-ups..Everyones need to feel above and everyones need to feel below. I do not understand much of anything, though I understand this much.
In a universe so vast...I'm awed and left dumbfounded. What in the actual fuck is going on...and why am I obsessed with finding it!?
I will find an answer, but first...I must heal.
To be healed, I must heal.

I'm going to you because my response is more personal than dealing with the subject, albeit its not a negative post I'm not sure if it crosses the lines of personalism anyways.

TLDR. The time it took you to write and post the former, would have been ample time to read my very small text. Which tells me your response, is not that you didn't read it, just that you have nothing to say. I will stop here, so I don't bother your low attention span.
And btw this thread is beginning to degenerate.

This is preaching, there is nothing offered to be debated.
Whatever this has to do with psychology or sociology is presented in blank statements, proselytizing half baked spiritual mumbo jumbo.
Since this has been an enduring habit of yours I'll probably just wind up putting you on ignore and save myself the annoyance.
some of us have slight messianic complexes where we think we figured it all out, so we come on here and share our revelations through the anonymous protection of an internet forum. simply put, you can't rant and rave about stuff like this in real life without being considered a nutter by the "normal" people. for alot of us this is the only place to get this kind of stuff out.
that being said, i agree this belongs in the spirituality section, as you mentioned, as it's more of a sermon than a debate lol. i usually post all of my long preachy monologues in that section as well lol....

I would have put you on ignore long ago, but every once in a while you come up with something that makes me laugh.
Just not this time.
Try again.

my bad everyone whole point of OP was basically just telling myself and others I've had a change of heart as to where I was going in my life and moving away from self-harm towards positivity and self-improvement..as the last 3 months I've really gone off the deep end of, well, ratchetness.
heroin, junkies, hoes, thug life..etc etc..just hanging out with the wrong crowd and doing the wrong things.
I want to do something like project mastermind in S&M

It's good you see the light a little bit at least. But honestly not to be discouraging, but if you have been into all that it may be hard to get out of it too.
I tend not to get too happy when someone posts how happy they are. In fact it tends to aggravate me. Be careful.

I just like looking at Nature and being nice to people personally. I don't really go the heroin overdose or STD-filled sluts thing.
