I've posted some rather bleak posts lately and after reading them I've realized that they don't represent who I am. I'm a pretty positive person actually.

I have found that the way I deal with negative emotions isn't completely unique though. Many seem to let their negative emotions consume them for an entire lifetime but I limit them to one horrible night.

Basically if something...

I figured out my greatest weakness and I lament in my laughter regarding the irony. My application of the principle of charity towards humanity is my kryptonite. I sometimes wonder where the energy comes from to believe in a species that is so inept but also capable of such greatness. I can only imagine the torture a quantum being would endure watching the story we...

When you really think about life it exists for the individual as a momentary gaze into the human psyche. People believe what they want to believe right or wrong and they base their entire life on that as well as teach it to their kids. This proves to me that reality is something we make up to feel okay with our daily decisions as well...

Tonight my ex contacted me. I had texted her a few days ago in response to an open question we had between us: can we be friends? I noted the amount of devastation our ability to function as a couple had taken on me and told her what I was currently doing with myself as a sort of farewell consolation. Much to my surprise she...

Seems like a pretty fucked up situation, if I may say so. For me, it sounds like she didn't ever really see you as her partner, but as a functional cohabitant and now that you are gone she wants another one and is hoping to win you back more easily than finding a new one. But that's only my two cents and not necessarily the answer to everything...

Most would like to claim they woke from some coma, nap, sleep, or whatever when they first realized zombies were real. It's easier for the human psyche to accept that we went to sleep when the world existed in a certain state and just simply woke up to an altered state rather than acknowledge the events preceding our transition. I, however, am unforeseeablely altered by...

In the past few months my world view has been completely destroyed but in its place is a much more positive and simple facsimile. Originally it was self serving but now I find that it is actually true.

How can this be possible?
It is because we make it reality on an individual basis. We can't hope for something and through inaction expect it to...

I'm not normally at a loss for what to do but I recognize when I am. Usually I just do what I think is right but with the internet at my disposal I figure why not use it as a sounding board. If nothing else just reading your thoughts on a screen (or seeing yourself exhibit ideas outside yourself) gives a person unbelievable perspective. Given...

For me this makes perfect sense. I've been in a similar situation, only that I was in a relationship when the girl came back after a few years without contact, also being freshly divorced. It can be very hard to deal with situations like that, and honestly said I was unable to cope with the situation that well. It ended with me breaking the contact for I had no intend to put my realtionship at risk. I'm not sure till today if this was the right way to deal with it...

Sometimes one little action can become something much bigger such as a simple apology leading to a reconciliation. Now I wonder why I carried the weight of all that guilt for so long when I could have set it down at any time. I've heard it said that an apology is a one way process and I've adopted that view but when someone reciprocates your...
