How often do you review the tenants that form your core beliefs? How much of what you hold as knowledge was derived from direct experience?
Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.
~Martin Luther
Curiosity and engaging in dialogue are key. Balancing openness and mental stability is increasingly difficult due to the sheer volumes of cultural data available to wade through. It becomes crucial to stand on grounds built upon a web of trust.
Likewise, new here and looking to build into the community. I'll be happy to bat around ideas with you!
This is fantastic advice, thanks for engendering growth 🙏
It'd be great if you can post a review of these at some point after you've had a chance to put them through their paces. I'd be interested to hear your impressions of them after some decent use.
Looking for suggestions for great follows 🧐 Who's on your list of must read notes?
Absolute certainty and absolute uncertainty are both forms of madness.
I just realized I'm an idiot 😂 I don't know how I missed the New part 🤦
Number one spot for suicides in Mexico and the Hotline info is written in English 🤔
You are not your ideas. Though they flow through you, they are the fruit of all those who came before you, who nourished you; bursting forth from the blossoms they pollinated with their toil and spirit. The legacy of mankind is the birthright of all those who grace this earth. Be humbled by your existence and grateful to all those who seeded the soil from which your mind grows. GN #Nostr
How do you conceive of justice? What does it mean to live justly alongside your fellow humans?
That with the nature to arise has too the nature to fall away again.
Well done! I feel the same, putting my liquor demons up on the shelf and rejoining the living has been monumental for me. Every day gets easier.
The recombinatory open sourcing of problem solving is the straightest line from problem realization to solution. Like a river finding it's path, all possibilities are considered and subsequently accepted/rejected/explored accordingly. Knowledge is the fruit of life and should be reverberated as widely as possible so that it can be tested and refined such that it brings flourishing to all people. Your conception of reality is an adaptation to your circumstances and should humbly be proffered to another with the humility to fully embrace the opportunity to hear their alternative.
It's not enough to have the tools. The tools must be used in empowering ways by it's wielders. Nostr certainly is a progression but it's the people that will ultimately fill the void of possibilities that this new tool enables. We must imagine a future of freedom and manifest it through our sharing of ideas; of voices. I'm grateful that these tools are being built and am emboldened by the community building I see here. There is a hopeful passion that permeates the world of Nostr. It's exquisite.
Absolutely, and the bell is inflation.
Your vote does not matter, indeed. The act of voting is an icon that's lost it's value. What matters is your continued engagement with community building and efforts that strengthen the resiliency of human endeavour.
