Today is the day. I make moves that take away my safety net. I intentionally force change into the daily regiment.
If anyone has time to drop me some encouragement or, better yet, their reasons for choosing life
Discussion
I have only one reason that I can share, there is always time to die, but not enough time to live! 🐶🐾🫡🫂

I like it.
Hope you’re road is paved with twists and turns that make the drive memorable.
People have been trained to fear adversity, avoid and condemn mistakes, and strive for life of static safety.
With this bred fear comes the human inclination to point and wag fingers at those who know the truth; failure is the only path to success.
Thanks for being on nostr. I see your notes often; engaging in this grand experiment is one of the biggest contributions to change available in this world gone upside down.
Love you, yo-mie.
Stay changin’

Wow! Thank you, this is great and insightful reply.
Although I preach a lot of positive things, I am not a stranger to negative thoughts myself. I guess it’s just part of being human. 🐶🐾🫂🫂🫂
Certainly!
And not that you interpreted it differently but know I don’t wish or advocate for negativity or bad things to happen; they are going to happen without my or anyone’s help.
What I do promote and hopefully propagate is the ability to receive such events with grace and acceptance; knowing the benefit of handling them accordingly, and ultimately the more complete person we become because of it.
🙏
Thank you! 🐶🐾🫂🫂🫂
As nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w stated, I have also struggled with life at times. I've come to think of how we deal with problems, as people, in two ways. We can allow all the crap, pain and suffering to fall upon us and crush us. Or we take the pain, the crap and we use it to build and we climb above all the shit to see all the opportunities and joy life provides.
💯🐶🐾🫂 if it wasn’t hard to live, it wouldn’t be worth living!
Without doubt. Without pain, sadness, loss, would joy, love and laughter be so precious or just the norm?
Precisely 🐶🐾🫂
The problem today is everyone wants to feel safe and happy all the time, but wonder why the don't. They avoid the hardships that take willpower and hard work physically and emotionally.
Ahhh, *breathes in deep* THIS is how I like to converse with people. These are the conversations worth having.
Glad to have struck them with you folks.
If I could sit around a campsite, in moderately remote places, and have this here kinda interactions?
Well I just might consider myself blessed.
Ima be zapping them responses of yalls cuz they warrant it…but RIGHT now? If I don’t put my shoes on and get on the shoe leather express I’ll have some hungry dogs on my hands.
✌️
Wish to have these kind of discussions for sure. Around camp fire and in nature would be a huge bonus! 🐶🐾🫂
I've certainly spent some good nights around a camp fire 🔥 talking shit and challenging ourselves mentally. I can't do small talk, I find it painful, but big ideas, important thoughts I will talk to strangers about any day 😂
Dude, we’re family then cuz that’s me absolutely.
I constantly feel out of place in conversation by either conveying a complete lack of interest or monopolizing the conversation with my verbose and thorough take.
It’s twice as bad if those around me happen to be younger; they immediately peg me as a stuck up square and not to flex or exaggerate but I couldn’t be further from that moniker
Yep I totally do that too, I'm not popular because I probably come across disinterested or a show off 😂
Who cares about popularity, as long as you enjoy and have the right people to talk to, you are in a good place. 🐶🐾🫡🫂💜
You’re not wrong; it can be difficult having only your digital self in that place.
There really is something to be said for the phrase home is where you make it.
Things are good because I accept they are good. (From my perspective)
🐶🐾🫂💜
I've always been an outcast and my small amount of friends the same.
So I had a very tight pack after grade school ( Im dyslexic so that’s a whole nother’ can) and into college. Then the opioid crisis claimed me as a static. Fast forward a decade and a coastal chage and I’m so solo shoulda named my dog chewy and the car falcon.
Sounds like we have a lot in common, I've been to rock bottom a few times. I spent the 2000's trying to kill myself with alcohol and other things. It gets better, I met an awesome woman who puts up with my shit, we've built a great life together.
Do you have a wallet connected? Tried to zap you and it says you don't.
Yeah it’s WOS. But yeah I actually just got a sublocade injection yesterday and guna be done with MAT hopefully around new years.
Im not anti-drug, in fact I think they’re like any tool out there, gotta know how to use it. Opioids are something I can’t trust myself to do sparingly.
NBD as I’m in a phase of my life where being down and uselessly doped up is the furthest thing from my mind.
And that woman counterpart; man I’m in a hard way there…definitely had the girl of my dreams last 3 years of college. We moved back to our shared hometown, and the using was presented as the reason but she wasn’t the same person while living with her parents. They were something else.
But yeah really need to find me a ride or die doe
OK worked that time to zap. Anyway, glad to meet fellow adventurers of life who've survived.
Indeed; life, or life as we know it, can’t exist without duality and the spectrum it creates. Tampering with, or trying to purposefully stabilize oneself on the spectrum as to ,ultimately and as a goal, negate the rest of it is unsustainable, in all forms and fashions.
It is the peaks and valleys; there is nothing else to define to be alive.
