Inner peace and contentment with life * 2
    #19464165 - 01/23/14 06:59 PM (10 years, 6 days ago)

I feel so at ease, and at peace with life as a whole. Everything is always going to be okay.

Are u at peace?

I've come to conclude from a generalized observation of life as a whole, all the negativity in the world ultimately stems from a lack of love. With love and acceptance we can see that it's okay for things to be the way that they are, without love the world will never be good enough.

Wars, fights, torture, everything can be fixed with love

I need your advice master Sheekle!

I was a happy motherfucker up until grade 12. Exactly what you described, I'd have moments of euphoria on a daily basis where I'd feel entirely at peace and be completely content with who I was and what I had.

Then some personal problems came up (problems I created myself, nothing "serious", but it seemed serious af at the time). These "problems" launched me into 3 years of self loathing, constantly hating myself, who I was, what I represented. I did something embarrassing too, nothing illegal nor harmful, just embarrassing. 

I've definitely recovered some, not 100%, but still fine. I used to have delusions about being the most pathetic human being on the planet, I seriously believed that the Universe was created to mock me.

Sometimes I feel love towards the universe but I can't help but feel a bit of anxiety on a daily basis. I feel like the world is against me, that the whole universe kind of wants to screw me over. I sometimes feel like I have nothing to offer to anybody, like I'll never have friends who'll back me up or truly love me, and that I'll die a loser.

How do you get past this. I feel like I'm 75% towards peace but the other 25% of anxiety is enough to ruin the whole ordeal! Kind of like a ham sandwich that's 75% ham but 25% shit- the shit still ruins it!

Sounds like a lot of unmitigated self-importance. Get past your self and get to work on something.

Inside I'm at peace, yet again I'm troubled by inevitable exposure to the elements.
Its likely that only desolation waits for us and no amount of positive thinking can change that. A troubled peace and worried mind.

Enlightenment is a choice. A choice to choose to dissolve the misconceptions and experiences we have in to one entity that is I am. Peace is balance.

I'm definitely not at peace with the world.  When I was younger I thought I was working toward being at peace, but the older I get, the more difficult it becomes.  It's not just because of my own insecurities and anxieties, of which there are many, but because of the miserable state of the human world.  There is so much wretched suffering happening right now that it's impossible to conceive it all.  I believe in the idea that you should work on yourself, on your own attitudes and ways of being in the world, before trying to help others; but I wish I could be of more use to my fellow people, as well.

I donno if I've said this yet on the shroomery, but its my personal opinion. All the hate, anger, fear and pain in the world exists solely in your heart. If you put your efforts towards compassion, understanding and love, your world will improve drastically!

With respect, that's just not true.  It's true that we project our own pain and suffering onto the world around us, and cause greater suffering in ourselves and others by looking outward for its source rather than inward.  But it's undeniable that this world is full of terrible, unspeakable suffering that humans have brought on each other.  Transitory, illusory though it may ultimately be, it's there, and needs to be addressed in tangible ways.

I support this endeavor, although I don't think there is ever any guarantee that one's experience will improve drastically.  You never know what will happen.

Ok, you got me, that personal quote is great for the facebook kiddos, but under actual scrutiny it fails, hehehe. But i still believe there is truth to it. Like you said, we project our feelings onto the world around us, I personally want to live in a world full of love and compassion rather then hate and fear. But does that make those things not exist, fuck no. I've been to war, I've seen death, I've held my father when he took his last breath. Does understanding help deal with these things, yes it does. but does it change them? No, it does not. I guess the point of all of this is that if only you can change the world immediately around you, then if everyone tried to change things for the better the world would gradually improve. Thats all I'm really saying, one step at a time.

Every year millions of people are murdered or die of starvation, if only they knew that secret.

Whatever you change in yourself, wars will rage on, torture, rape, famine and pestilence will continue. Cat's can be observed to torture their prey, planets collide, the universe is indifferent.

What you're saying I've heard from a thousand mouths, reciting books written by dead people who had less understanding than they pretended.
