Could be also time preference. They reached a different phase in life, where they have to concentrate on a different part of life.

it's a lot of factors. we could go on and on 😂
but you've noticed it, now notice why and how individually it affects each one.
Something smart about factor 3. Mentioning gently factor 4.
"Some smart quote"
Closing with a summary.
😂😂
people on here that I like regularly express these points in their own words, which is the best way. personal experience trumps intellectualization. questioning like you are doing leads to understanding, don't stop.
Thanks nostr:npub16jad3sjdf0hynxhmpzpsuuwazqlxrcq824kjpw3w7wr8ldt3xm0q0zq4nn I also think a great question already have half of the answer, so we have to learn to ask better questions to improve.
I guess individually understanding people's situation could help to see, where these solutions can enhance their lives.
trying to enhance a life of a person who isn't interested is probably futile and potentially harmful. no matter what our intention is.
you're fun to interact with BTW 😜
It's also hard.
Because if you want to live a more private life e.g., you have 2 choice:
- use the bad tools your friends use,
- somehow guide them to use more secure and private apps
I mean if you want to interact with them, you have to meet somewhere. In the app they use, or in the app you use.
mmm
why be attached to friends? people come and go. as we get older we change and others we know change and naturally drift apart.
(the following is very common to recite before morning Zazen and inarguable, we have been talking around the 4th one this morning)
The Five Remembrances
1 I am of the nature to grow old. There is no way to escape growing old.
2 I am of the nature to have ill health. There is no way to escape having ill health.
3 I am of the nature to die. There is no way to escape death
4 All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change. There is no way to escape being separated from them.
5 My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground upon which I stand.
also
time and family isn't a given to close people, I know open and closed people of every personalsituation.
it's a mystery. and it's fun to explore it , because the journey of why is unending even after we are dead.
