I don’t believe in soulmates. I do believe there are people who enjoy deep compatibility but in my opinion fate nor matching have anything to do with it.
What if you do not exist,
And you are only existing because of the thoughts that you exist? You then realise that you stop existing the moment you stop the thoughts of existing. What if?
I would have been gone a long time ago. Childhood.
I have seen things and done things I'm not proud of. What's your story?
I think most rational people could make this statement. I wish I hadn’t been born in the time or place, or into the traumatic family I was. I wish I had been more “street smart” and had better common sense, whatever that is. Being intelligent means nothing if you can’t apply it in the real world. I regret making ignorant and impatient choices. I regret every reaction fueled by trauma. But my heart is in the right place, and I am grateful that I’ve never harmed anyone, even though they have harmed me. It is hard, but I am choosing to dismiss, and walk away the better person. At the end of my life, which I feel is going to be sooner rather than later, I want to be able to say that I tried my best to be a good person who never hurt anyone
I’m not sure what you’re asking. I don’t rate or rank lovers, if I’m reading that right. None of them were good or right for me. That’s why I retired in my early 20s. I’m better off alone.
I just read an advice column about creating a dating profile and it felt so ludicrous I could vomit. I’m here to be myself, not try to impress some rando on the internet. I have no interest in marriage, I just want a respectful and intelligent person to hang out with who is emotionally supportive and challenges me to be better. Why is that too much to ask?
What was your favourite subject or class in school?
Graphic and Print Communications, which was a fancy term for operating a vocational-industrial print shop.I excelled at certain academics as well, but didn’t care much for them.
Memrise app has been the most helpful. I’ve learned 29 words and phrases in a week and a half. I also watch Introduction to the Spanish Language on The Great Courses, and watch a few YouTube videos. But Memrise is my favorite by far. I doubt I’ll ever be proficient, but I would like to try.
Perhaps tell them that racists (of any color) are ignorant garbage human beings and you’re not having an ignorant garbage human being for a kid. I am very matter of fact about this, and probably would be if I were a parent as well. There would be consequences if I had a kid who became racist, or sexist, or a bully, etc. But you have to constantly check yourself first, because they’ll learn from you one way or another. Practice what you preach in front of your kids. They will either want to follow your lead or be nothing like you. It is ultimately their decision, and they will face consequences for that decision in the real world.My parents, who were born in 1950 and 1952, didn’t have a lot of memorable qualities, but they made an effort not to be racist. I will definitely give them that, in remembrance.
