/me

This blog is not linked from elsewhere on the site. This is a personal diary, where I will write things I wouldnt usually want to tell others. Based on introspection, they are a result of my struggle to cope up with my huge internal problems. For my worldly picture, look at my website and/or my thought blog and/or my commune blog.

There are 5 connotations of the name "/me": 1. In IRC chat, when you want to type in a message that is something about you, you type in "/me (message)". This blog is something like that. 2. "/me" signifies me standing alone on one side of the "slash", and the rest of the world on the other side. I have come alone to my own personal private space and am writing about myself. 3. It indicates the URL of the blog - the main site name followed by "/me". 4. It indicates the path location in the unix directory tree. 5. Simply that the blog is about me.

happy! :)

I am feeling much better today.... a couple of relationships got better. Or so it appears now. :-)


But there is a lot of ground to cover still...

How I did this? I tried to let the thoughts in my brain out.... I tried to actually tell people to do something, not just observe and reason, I actually tried to enact something. I let the thoughts flow out to my actions a bit... and let words flow out of my mouth.

I actually tried to show emotions, and let the problems in my mind out, ..... since this is the way happiness is created... .people let other people know by their actions and thoughts how they can be happy, what problems they have, and what is the possible solution that they see to their problems. Others hear the problems, and combine them with their problems, and combine his solutions with their solutions, and thus try to form a combined solution to the combined problem.

It is with free flow of thoughts and words, that synergies of people can be formed and maintained.

It is with the mutual march towards "meaning", that lives can actually be synergized into happiness!

disappointed

Sometimes I feel that I haven't ever been understood by anybody, and maybe never will be. Maybe I have never understood myself. Or maybe I have to a certain extent, but maybe do not have the necessary willpower to do anything about it. Even if somebody comes asking to me about my plight, I cannot explain it to them, since I don't know how.....these are emotions so deep that logical explanations do not feel sufficiently descriptive to be able to put words on them...Or that the emotions are so complex, that they cannot be explained in linear thoughts, which are what we communicate in.

What do I want? Do I want other people to like me? Do I want other people to consider me as a mature person? Do I want ....


Sometimes I make the effort to go ahead and mix with people, put in a lot of enthusiasm, and then things dont work out. And then I have to ask myself, what am I doing? Am I really going in the right direction? Does the world want this? Do I want this? I don't know.

And as it is, my mind plays games with me. I can't think straight, nor write straight, my mind thinks so addictively about what others will think of this situation, and my mind gets saturated, with no real results...nothing gone, nothing done.

Like, right now, as I am writing this, I don't know whether I am writing what I want to. I don't know whether my mind is picking up words from what I am saying or words which have randomly, arbitrarily appeared from some deep complex wiring inside the brain, or from trying to calculate what others will think of me, and then produce words which will impress them?

I don't know who I am. My mind is incompetent of anything, and thus I am. I am the most useless person ever born on the face of the earth.

Everybody makes fun of me, because I am dumb, and say things which are so dumb. I don't know how others can think so fast. Why am I so dumb? What did I do?

What I am - how much is a result of my actions - and how much is God's creation?

Why am I so bad?

Why cant I reason out a way to my own happiness?

Why there is so much conflict within the brain? What do I want to do?

Do I want to be a super-smart guy that everybody is in awe for?

Do I want to be someone so honest, and trustful and moral, that he never does wrong?

Why cant I just be a normal happy person? What will I want from showing other people that I am moral, and intelligent?

Maybe because I am trying to show because of the very lack of these qualities, which has made my life a living hell.


How can people be so happy?

Does hating people, or identifying people who you match with -- is that the way to live life?

It does look like that hating people does help make us ourselves happier, because we feel that we have exercised our choice, and we feel powerful, and enacters, and we feel that now we can enjoy our choices? As if, because they were not our choices, so we couldn't enjoy them?
