The society is also selling us constantly the idea that you can be self sufficient, that you don’t have to depend on anything or anyone even friends. Aside from that a lot of the people we meet are not our friends, they are just people we called friends because we had common interests and circumstances, so when those interested fade away, or those circumstances change, those friendships die slowly. (Sorry for the long answer)
i loved it. thank you for answering my existential question. lol i am questioning the world today.
I saw your note 🫂That’s good thing to do once in a while. There is a 50% chance that nothing is real 😂 https://www.ign.com/articles/theres-a-50-50-chance-we-really-are-living-in-a-simulation-scientists-say
one day we can sit down over a cup of coffee or tea and talk about those stories haha
One day 🫂
again, thank you for your patience and your words.
It is a pleasure engaging in this discussion. it’s one of the topics I thought of, I’m always asking myself how is it that my friendships are decreasing over time. So the answer I gave is the answer I found after that self-reflection. One of the other reasons also is ego, sometimes we are too proud to discuss with our friends what is it that they did and that bothered us we expect them to understand naturally.
food for thought. my own self-reflection, i hung out with the wrong people, because i didn't know myself that well. This that common interest and circumstances ring true. I think I am questioning what is real, maybe it's because I am being real for the first time these last couple of years. I have built such a strong inner core, and now I see everything as wrong, not bad (some things are), but not on my alignment. Yeah, I guess about the ego part is how do we come to terms with our inner core and accept the situations for what they are and be an open space for unique personalities to express while setting healthy boundaries. Did we get this ego class in elementary school? It's funny, i feel more awake. When I was younger I felt I was just drifting thought life. I accepted the fabrications or the stories, I didn't question it, and now I see it for what it is. That's a challenge. (Sorry I am rambling. I am going to be heading to bed in a few, ty very much)
💯 that’s the most important thing, be real and stay true to yourself. About the ego part, we all took that class obviously 🙄😂 Good night Sarah ! 💜
