Why are we suppressing the love?
    #7824010 - 01/02/08 02:47 PM (16 years, 30 days ago)

Hmmm,
just remembering how I was when I was younger.  I loved everyone until I started to meet horrible people.  Then they somehow transfered their horribleness to me.

Inside though, I still have the love, I'm soppy at heart.  Apparently this is wrong for a man.  Society is pushing this image of 'male ego' upon me which actually disagrees with my true good nature.

Sometimes I dismay at whats happening here, everyone constantly living in a lie.  Pretending because honesty is not accepted.

If theres any love left inside of you, then bring it out and spread it!  Fuck image, fuck social pressure.  If your truly good natured then show it and pass it on.

Maybe its just me?  Was I born a true hippy?  Or are other people hiding it too?

:heart:  :sun:

:sad:

Self defence is a sacred right but to indulge in a battle of ego.  No thanks.

Was that your view at 6 years old or is this some negativity that your environment has pushed upon you?

Every statement made here is a representation of ego. People say 'fuck image, fuck being one of them' to make a point, whilst building their own image.

The only way to make a change is to be the change..

Sorry I was just kidding dude.

I think you're right and I'm the same, I'm a 'nice guy', I prefer to be good to people and give them the benefit of the doubt, then if they fuck me over in some way I will find a way of cutting them out of my life.  I think perhaps it seems like assholes do better when they are younger, but when they're 35 and have no friends willing to give them the time of  day, they lose out in the long run.  I don't believe in Karma but that shit exists in human social circles fo' sho, shit comes back around man.

Whats up anyway man.  I think there's lots of nice people on the Shroomery at least! :grin:

No people can say that to build their ego or they can say that because they want to be the change.

I'm not trying to build myself. I honestly was born soppy, its the bad things in the world that have converted me to bad. I want to be that change. At this time of year - its a retrospective time, the time to set yourself a new path. Only time will tell. I agree saying it is not enough but the thought is the start.

Image is a consequence of ego, whilst ego is a consequence of society. Everything we do is governed by it.

The problem with society is social convention.. if it was convention for everyone to express their true feelings about everything then the world would be a better place. Love is a good thing, but not necessarily the answer straight up.. I think truth, honesty and true freedom of expression would change the world for the better.. of course none of this can happen without love.

I spose.

Maybe its just this chemically induced sense of goodness that is completely flawed or maybe it does hold a more spiritual meaning.

All thats for certain is (for most of us at least) we prefer the feeling of love to hate. The people that prefer hate, seem to thrive on it from the fact they don't have enough (or think) love.

I don't know. I'm just trying to decode it all, ya know?

Me too. :laugh:

People that prefer hate do so because of psychological reasons.. there is some sort of ego based emotion fueling their progression of thought.. People that get stuck on such things are the ones that spiral into depression, then self pity, then anger. The thing about anger is that its a very primitive emotion.. Its empowering. This is why people who hate all the time are more often than not insecure; they need the power to feel adequate... It all relates to social convention.

I don't believe there is such thing as an evil person. However; as the world hangs in balance, there are plenty of souls who simply refuse to understand and accept their circumstances, which leads to hatred.

What do you mean by love? Being polite? Where exactly do you live, from what I've experienced there are friendlier places in different states, even cities or streets. In LA there is a disconnect, in San Francisco there is plenty of love, but then again it's hippie love

Also showing "love" to strangers in some places is seen as weak or awkward.

I mean love that feeling that you should care for and be good to everybody else, or am I wrong?
