I trusted you I trusted you

 Tough guys are desperate for validation and approval.

 That's why everyone is an asshole.

 Anyone who says they don't care if others don't like them is a liar or a fool. Does that hurt your feelings? Maybe you do need external validation just as much as anyone.

 For example, a comedian doesn't have to repeat or explain a joke. He makes it once with as much self-effacing as possible. This also explains why God chose to incarnate with maximal suffering in Christ.

 Only love is good and only good is love. If someone condemns your mental illness, their opinion is not worth considering. If you say I am considering it as we speak, there is acknowledgement and there is care. Don't care about the opinions of those who don't care about you.

 So I find myself creepy too.

 So I am also uncomfortable with me.

 So if ever anyone has scorned, then I scorn myself.

 It's a bit less ancient of wording, but the Bible didn't like Jezebel either.

 An ignorant person may well be happier than a wise one in many cases.

There's good times, and bad times. More good times than bad though. More OF them. (Last Polka)

 Nothing resolves it fully.

 We can improve our situations, our minds, and our health, but we can never become invincible or unassailable in any way.

 Sometimes, even if someone claims you are logically inconsistent, you just have to say, "Enough."

And anyway, if I did try to tolerate those viewpoints it could sound like introjection; a defense. 

 Or not Bob specifically, but whoever it happens to be.

 Rarely is it the person themselves.

 He was made of light after all. Light behaves quirkily.

Time travel requires forgetting about grammar. 

 Or you'll just return home. 

 The light, whimsical moments of life are all that count. Even what seems meaningless in a passing moment of sincere wit is truly lovely.

 It may make you unsuccessful to not condemn back, but that means nothing. They will probably start to judge you almost constantly, but that also doesn't matter.

 How could he not? God knows everything. He knew they would only eat of it if he told them not to.

 Perhaps one day someone will actually read my blog to see it.

 "There will be no order; only chaos."- Pi

Be kind to yourself instead. If you are too nice to yourself you might be mean to other people.

 Is all non-duality equivocation?

Use Tilopa's 6 words of advice.

Knowing it seems like Buddhist salvation.

And then, I'll assume I don't intend to harm anyone, unless shown otherwise.

You are almost definitely not causing their ignorance, and they are almost certainly happier than you anyway.

Don't betray that trust.

Not always, but usually.

Why would it be considered automatic that there has to be both? That's pretty irrational.

1. everyone is enlightened 2. no one is enlightened 3. assume 1 and 2 4. 1 and 2 contradict RAA

Given the sorrow of life, the absurd goal of never despairing is all we have.

No life strategy guarantees peace except renunciation, simplicity, and sobriety.

There is an illusion of permanence and safety. If you ask me, the only joy is in sobriety, renunciation, and silence. Nobody asked me though.

And if you are the beautiful, don't be proud of that. You didn't accomplish anything.

But The Second Noble Truth is useful to be aware of, because probably it's true for most of us.

Admittedly, humility is easier when you're actually poor. Rich people often start to believe, "I earned this."

at the moment, I am too sick to desire.

the karma that bothered us before may not just change. How we think about it might.

 A perfect game requires 27 outs, or 12 strikes. Probably no one can be, has been, or is constantly perfect... Even if they had a shift of mind.

 Being self-absorbed doesn't affect the world. It just makes you dumb.

 Especially if you're poor.

 You'll always have existed.

 The fruit involves a shift from a moment of arahant to another moment of arahant, but it's equally arahantish. The path involves leaving behind unarahantishness, but the path is still arahanted. The fruit on the other hand doesn't need any leaving behind of its previous moment, which was also arahanty.

 If everyone else believes something about you, you have the executive power to decline that idea.

 That will also prevent me from having to solve the paradox that if I was never born I couldn't build the time machine.

 It will be especially hard to build this if you can't even have load bearing walls.

 Even the narcissist and sociopath is a people-pleaser in their ways.

 One side does too much; the other side feels too much.

 The word, "theist" is right in their names... which means Theos, or God.

 Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps.

 Renunciation is much more enjoyable.

 Women can tell the difference though, which is why they are usually smarter and why they usually hate each other.

 God doesn't hate anyone but if you ever doubt that, then love God anyway.

 Infinitely, I might add.

 Sequels are never as good.

 One can either be 100% helpful to everyone else with 99% efficiency, and 0% helpful to oneself, or 100% helpful to everyone including oneself, with 100% efficiency. Or one can be an asshole.

 So I suppose I am unenlightened. 

Nothing is unforgivable.

 Let's face it, they're yelling. That doesn't mean it doesn't come from deep compassion though. 

 I guess that's not very moral at all then is it?

 Try not to do any more of the bad things that people will have to forget.
