What keeps you guys going? I mean our society is so shit and the generations are just degrading. What's the point of all of this. To just work have a little fun on the weekend. Government lets us get high and drunk on the weekends and keeps us going. If only I wasn't such a coward in the act of just getting it over with id be long gone. Maybe I'm just lonely and fucking beat from work I'm just mentally exhausted and just spent. All I do is get high anytime I'm off work and I'm just tired of it all. Yea I have buddies and we have good times but anytime I'm alone all I can do is waste time and smoke weed bc I'm bored. Why are we here?

I smoke weed way too much when I'm alone too. But really if your that unhappy with they way your live is going make a change. Pick up a hobby, or even change your job. Only YOU can make a difference for yourself. Maybe lay off the weed a little and try and have positive thoughts. One positive thought can seed a positive train of thought and like wise will negative thoughts. Hang in there brother we are all in this together.
-------------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

I find pushing my consciousness to the edge of existential crisis(or diving full on in) to be a fun way to pass my prison sentence, aka life.
I wonder too. About the rat race, purpose of it all, work to live, live to work. I'd rather hop off that hamster wheel, and live fully. The whole why am I here, what do I want to do with my life that is deeply meaningful rather than passing time?
The consumer lifestyle is unfulfilling, as are most social interactions of a superficial nature. When we die, what then? I can't take money, possessions, etc. with me, so what's the point?
So I practice concentration techniques which are a blast, but also help give me a better understanding of the whys, depth of perception, understanding, etc. Then mindful of my attachments to how I want things to be, which isn't necessarily the way things are, you know acceptance of how people in general have aloooot of growing to do.
Why are you here? What are you looking for?

I have a great job it's just fighting some inner demons. It's a bitch but I've always dealt with shit personally and weed has been my coping method. I just know all I have to look forward to is old age and I just wanna fade to black. Idk just rambling. Long week and Im just exhausted from the mundane.

Generally questions like why are we here and why does life suck break down ultimately into brain health problems. You'd be surprised.

I contest that, not that I don't agree to a certain point. But after a certain degree, it leads to a deeper understanding. I guess it depends on whether a person is going in mental circles(as typical) or developing insight(understanding the nature or root cause of such things arising).

Yes, forgiving my parents for bringing me into this world. . . hehe. It takes a lot of love LOL!
Life is so complex because we're such social beings - we have to learn how to have peace with new challenges all the time.
like right now- huge social experiment on a grand scale --- for the last several hundred years. ..
it's always new but the eternals are always the same - be strong, be kind, have no fear!
are eternally good for societies. . . . probably other worlds found the same ones too.

thing is - we know how to be happy - to live and be happy at 3 years of age. . . or some do.
Just be happy, that's all we gotta do, mainly.
at least -- that aids us by a 700% in whatever other activity we want to do - save the earth - work for peace, etc.
but being happy is also the goal of life. . . not just the destination - but the way to go forwards too. . .
the way being happy leads to so many good things, basically.

I feel ya, I have a good job/family life and every day shit it seems every moment at times; I constantly question my existence. It sucks and it is
frustrating as I can not control it. Even when I am happy I am still in the same mindset. I've tried depressants and counseling and nothing really
changes. The other day I actually looked up what Buddhist believe the point of living is (I can relate most with Buddhism being an atheist). Anyways they
believe that the point of living is just that, to live. Be happy and live life with good thoughts and good intentions. It's easier said than done though.
It takes practice and just as much thinking about as the thinking of not wanting to be here. Not sure if that makes any sense.
You're not alone, none of us are. We are in this shit together and it is a shame that most don't realize that. Try to talk more with the people that
you are surrounded by and I think you will see that they feel the same as you. I don't know, I wish I did. Hang in there and keep going, I am sure
we will find the reason for living at some point.

Maybe we are just here to make a difference in other peoples live for the better. Idk maybe my job is done here. Ive done my psychonaut journey and dabbled in anything I could get my hands on. And I feel I have impacted enough lives on my friends and family and niece and nephew and don't see much else to come from this other than the loop we call life.
