[QUOTE=Parja;41138429]I've had the same kind of experience. One day I convinced myself that every action is of equal value and that hedonistic pleasure can be derived from anything, it's just a matter of perspective. Honestly it's just a matter of not getting mad at shit and not expecting anything specific to happen. The more you expect, the more you attempt to predict, the more you become blind to the unforeseen and the life-changing. I'm reading a book atm on this subject, the extremely rare and extremely important events, so-called "Black Swans". The guy basically argues that our original mode of living, eat-fuck-sleep-repeat is bound by physical limitations, e.g. there's a hard limit on the amount of pleasure derived from basic needs. If you're hungry, eating a little will give you a lot of pleasure, but there's a limit to the amount of food you can eat before you won't derive happiness from it anymore. Conversely, social and financial matters aren't limited by physical constraints, since they consist of information. I realized a few years ago that since information is not limited by physical matters, it should be easy enough to modify my own worldview to become more open and accepting of things that can't be changed. And sure enough, I've never felt happier. It's easy, you just need to accept that things aren't that important. (At least it worked for me)[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=sltungle;41138496]Was that in relation to me? Uhh, not really. I just sort of thought, who the fuck is anybody else (like the people who used to beat the shit out of me and torment me for like my whole life up until that point) to tell me that I'm not fucking awesome? I might not have had many friends, but all of the friends I did have were really close, good friends. I'm smart, I'm funny. Fuck anybody who thinks otherwise. Awesome is my default setting. I think I also came to a lot of those realisations after standing up to a guy that used to bully me. I was sick and tired of it, and when he threw a shoe at me one day while I was at my locker I picked it up and lobbed it really hard back at him and clocked him square in the back of his head (which knocked him over sort of). If I recall correctly that was sort of the catalyst for me becoming a much stronger person.[/QUOTE] Thank you both, this has given me something to think about.
I might have just found $300 in savings bonds with my name on them, from 2004 and earlier. not sure what to do with it
That's probably only a tiny part of it, too. A lot of thinking about my existence and how unlikely it was in the first place was probably a part of me learning just to be stronger and happier in general because, fuck it, I've only got one shot (which really I shouldn't have when you think about the statistics) - to spend it mopey and unhappy would be a big bloody waste. The odds of the single egg and sperm from my mum and dad coming together to form me is staggeringly low enough as it is, and that's not even taking into consideration all of the chemical interactions that had to happen exactly as they did for that combination to develop exactly as it did. That's just one generation back, and on those odds alone I shouldn't exist. Multiply that out over billions of years of animals and the odds of me existing basically round down to 0. Let's not even begin to get into how the entire solar system might not have formed if like one atom was out of place in the primordial gas cloud which condensed into the sun - chaos theory will see to it that tiny differences in an initial system lead to staggeringly different states later on. I shouldn't be here, but I am. Spending this small opportunity that I've got being negative would be a monumental waste. Seriously, without trying to be funny YOLO. Enjoy it.

Oh well, there's always next time. Anyone else get that feeling that they can never be just plain happy for a whole day? Or even a minute of a day? There's always something to piss me off, or make me depressed. I try to get a positive outlook on life, but it never lasts too long.[/QUOTE] not one day goes by where i haven't had a flip and thrown shit all around my room.

[quote]While I was strung out on Ambien I apparently purchased 4 gray huacaya alpacas by posting a listing on this site and then ironing out a private deal which involved using my moms credit card and lots of money ( [url]http://www.agriseek.com/buy/e/Farm-Animals/Alpacas/[/url]) Help! What does it take to raise alpacas? And can I turn a profit off them maybe? Would disputing the charges do anything? Are alpacas friendly? I already have 2 border collies that roam the backyard, would this be a problem if i were to keep the alpacas?[/quote] [url]http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/threads/407727-Help-I-ve-made-a-big-mistake[/url] One moment you're happily popping pills the next you're an alpaca farmer, drugs are bad mmkay.

Who needs 3D TVs ey?[/QUOTE] Talking about windows, once upon a time, in winter, me and my buddies were having a very weedy evening. Due to it being very windy I put on my hood and suddenly I thought I was watching tv. Turning to comrades I said "My eyes are my windows.", laughter ensued. To this day they still sometimes have fun at me when I'm doing or saying something nonsensical, intoxicated or not. "Are your eyes your windows again?"
The universe seems to smile upon me. HBWR seeds, a few tabs of LSD, and an eighth of mushrooms will soon be in my possession. I've also been doing well on my tolerance break from weed, and I finished the year with a relatively good average, a 3.6. Things are looking up.

i found a goldmine lmao [url]http://www.talktofrank.com/[/url] [quote]It was a normal night at the local park with our crew until a girl from a rough area, near where we live, came down. She recognised a few of us from a festival. She was acting all hard because she had smoked a lot of cannabis that day. She was asking if we knew any dealers and we did know a few but never really spoke to them. She was determined to get some green and when she finally got 20 pounds worth, she forced us to start smoking it with her. Bearing in mind we had never done it before, it was really scary. We all had a few drags on the “bifta” because she was pressuring us. About three people were sick and the rest just chilled out and brought loads of food like biscuits and crisps. The girl started to get paranoid and told us her life story. She had put girls in hospitals and threatened people with knifes. Then she started on one of our crew, and she pulled out some scissors that she had used to make a “pipe”. Our friend started to cry and couldn’t stop. We all felt sick, then the police showed up and took us all to a cell for the night. This was four months ago and I’m still grounded. This was the worst experience of my life, I will never do it again.[/quote] i tell ya just go through the cannabis stories section
