Are you kidding?! Paranoiaâs a thrill! Makes you feel like a spy in an espionage movie.
Just kidding⌠sort of.
Anyway, I wonder if Destinyâs abandoned this thread. Weâve butchered it pretty bad. I was expecting a whole series of Q&A rounds. I swear I wonât at all of them.
Not an easy set of criteria to overcome, of which I recognise that I too am a victim of⌠victims of an all or nothing mentality, that needs an interim middle-ground found quickly enough to resolve this limitation of situations and therefore growth⌠or is that a bad idea, if our fight or flight responses cannot adapt as quickly as our mind?
I have no idea how you came to that conclusion from what I wrote. Read it again.
Had you even read my last line, you would have realized that my answer to your question was a NO.
Iâm not sure what you mean Mags? I donât think anyone chooses to be in the reality we find ourselves in. However, I think the anthropic principle might address what I think you mean. Itâs like asking: out of all the animals on Earth, why did I become human? Because only humans can ask the question.
Reactive meaning more limited? Not actually making free choices? In that case, weâve got to tough it out. Learn to be okay with the consequences weâre trying so desperately to avoid.
It is not so much in the experiencing than in the choosing, that I am interested in⌠the deciding factors in which way things will go⌠stressful much!
Maybe men and women differ here. But maybe it just me.
Where there is a whole wall of seeming options, I see a monolithic forbidding wall, not a lot of bricks.
Dont I know it. Its the main problem for a wholesome guy with respect to women as well - all the sick dudes will gang up to prevent the match. Same with work. But a knowing, mocking smile is usually enough to disperse that whole wall and send them all crying to their mothers laps.
Other than running pedophile networks and creating slave-markets the size of nations, not a whole lot, I agree.
Sort of. Im actually part of the ride. I make it very difficult for stupid people to enjoy their stupidity. I enjoy this role beyond imagining. It is so lovely to see a stupid person writhe in agony when his stupidity becomes evident to him.

What if an individual refuses, or simply cannot be, reactive or want to tough it out? I see a few humans as the calm, and the majority as the storm.
A nice analogy to describe the dilemma, but I wouldnât know if this was a male/female issue, just from our observations alone.

Females prevent matches too, and who needs the woes of the workplace politics to be played out in front of them every day of the week.
Isnât there currently a call to have the UN disbanded? as they are nothing more than a money pit nowâŚ
i should have said try to enjoy the ride âin the driving seatâ. I am not averse to dipping my toe into the ocean that is humanity, but the experience has proved worthless, so back to the dipping pool for one.
