Every time I stand up life seems to shove me back down.

Taking the hits of life and getting back up is what teaches us to stop and appreciate magical moments in between the battles.

this is why i don't trust pharmaceutical drugs or the company's who make them...

One of the things that happens within the emotions is that empathy is subdued and the darker natureโ€™s of man comes forth. This is difficult to handle for the individual and require great strength of mind to overcome.
The feelings in general alter so much that the personality changes and the suppressed inner being comes forth and manifests as something we could call evil.

These side effects are often downplayed and silenced, but are well known. In most cases it does not come forth in a strong manner, but for a small percentage that has the latency, it has devastating effects.

The need to look again on substances and chemicals is adamant for a greater understanding of the human psyche and the understanding of consciousness. The fact of the matter is that the violence lives within all of us as we are beings of light and dark forces, but the influences and the potential separate us in how the influence manifest in the individual.

I find great danger in tampering with the body chemistry and this is also not an exact science in any way. Most of it is at an experimental stage where there are massive human trials in effect and there are no sound regulations on this to make sure that bad things does not happen. Many lives are ruined and lost because of it and the dark numbers are far too high to let it go by unnoticed.
One issue is that credibility is taken away from people undergoing treatments and what we have is the voice of beard stroking men with no actual experience of what happens on the individual level. The authority has been taken and is thus also given blindly to entities with no other interest than self preservation.

Most of you know Iโ€™m not much a drinker.

To pitch in i dont think it wise to discuss drug use in an open forum as some may be drawn to it that dont know what they're doing.

This is just so beautiful and true I just have to share.

If we look into the esoteric and the mystery schools, the importance comes with the cleansing and polishing of the heart. That means the refinement of character through practice and experience. The focus on the shell is temporary and flawed, wasting time that can be used for betterment of self.
This is what is needed for individual growth and also for the growth of the general population.

The focus on the box, the label or the possessions of an individual leads away from the narrow path and also darkens and hardens the heart. We can see this all around manifested in many different ways. The focus of many is to lead people astray and make sure they do not discover what lives within as that would be a cause for (r)evolution.

I do not adhere to any religion, but hold to the belief in the teachings we can find worldwide. If we can look beyond the shell, we see the individual. If we look at the shell, we will never see the individual. This is one of the reasons the shell can be detrimental for the individual as it can prohibit personal growth. We also have false preachers talking about beauty and the graces, not knowing what is actually meant studying the teachings. The problems multiply when we combine half truths with false beliefs.

There is also the danger of believing that one see into the individual while merely staring at a wishful reflection. This causes all sorts of problems as leeway is given for atrocious acts and we also get the legitimacy for evil to come into existence and thrive.

The balance is difficult to obtain and uphold. One cannot simply choose to see only light, as there is a natural force in the balancing that mean we need to accept and see the darkness as well. And this also starts within the individual. If the individual do not recognize and integrate their own darkness into their being, the light will remain tainted. There cannot be made sound choices based on ignorance, it has to come from knowledge.

Many a time people learn about this through the life path. Some sooner than others. This does not mean there is a specific way of actions and choices that will always be correct. There is no such thing and a lot of the bad is needed to come forth to realize certain things.

Sometimes we can gain a lot of insight looking towards the elders amongst us. Some of them hold great wisdom from a lifetime of experiences and choices. Some of the things they talk about is only given context when personal experience line up alongside to provide understanding.
Naturally, this does not mean one should become a follower, but gaining wisdom from others experiences is valuable and it makes our own path shorter and more efficient.

We could dive into these matters and explore lots more of the depth, but there are times and places allotted for all these things.

War Is a Racket

Its about controlling resources. A tool.

The way the world is set up now is highly unfavorable for the grass roots. Which is done on purpose of course. The propaganda used is a way to legitimize and to control public opinion to keep us in the dark.

On the whole its quite a study. Finding out more on what happens and why is concerning. Many pawns move round not knowing what they are doing chasing titles while doing so. On the whole these titles and labels do not matter at all. Some wake up to this fact while others do not. The ones that do tend to get thrown in the back of history and their work either hidden or destroyed.

bostrom's simulation argument

We are limited beings with almost no perception, so we have very little awareness of what we are inside of. So the simulation seems likely. The possibilities within is also endless. The matrix covers this rather well in how one can train the mind to be blind or to see. The ones we deal with that see "too much" are considered insane and get locked up. Or they keep it well under wraps.

I think there is a lot of unlocked potential in humanity. And that work is done continuously to keep us in the dark fighting amongst ourselves. Development of self causes one to see this world we live in as a horrible place to exist, though also with immense beauty and with potential. Its hard to look onto things after a while as so much seems like utter nonsense, but then again one has to remember that not all are aware of the same things.

Help-QA feature poll: Changing Anonicons

I think the individual should be responsible for their content and not be under the protection of anonymity. This means that one have to think more about what one post.

Within this setup there is already a sort of mystery as of who the individuals really are, and there is enough room for being anonymous already in that regards.

If one cannot own up to what one say or become scared of someone finding out, then maybe those things should not be posted online at all for all to see.

Does not mean it have to be that way. Its just my opinion on the matter.
