Before getting into this, I decided awhile back it was necessary to flesh out the natural process of short term temptations. This thread is a collage of those notes, some which are thought strings. The structure may seem sporadic.
So how do you feel about this ideology these days?
Despite not being in desperate circumstances, I find it more necessary than ever. I'm only here because I gave these ideals priority and my main focus has been to maintain its priority.
Oh, I was hoping this was some form of past tense journaling where you'd be commenting on how far you've come from getting over such snags in thinking.
So there's room to debate with this ideology as a present tense mindset instead of just referencing an older you? How far would you say you deviate from the OP?I don't deviate at all, these notes were made recently
They sound... like some of your older stuff. I'd argue this is regressional, usually as a compensation cope for when you're hurting. You use this rhetoric to externalize things about yourself that you don't like, and tend to look towards others who are otherwise similar to the quality, but more extreme in display, to rebuke. While it appears as a staircase for yourself for "self improvement" on the surface, I mostly see you beat yourself up and bury yourself in memes while cussing people out for accepting something about themselves that you dislike about yourself. While it looks motivated and inspirational, it tends to come out with repression and denials.
I'll think of some questions for the lettered bits when I have more focus, as this seems worth talking about to me.
