Does anyone else sometimes just have days where they feel like they just can't stand the physical world? Like I just can't take another conversation with my roommates about what they're wearing or their boyfriends new car. Even the "hey how are you" seems so fake sometimes. I'm not sure if it's just my age and my peer (I'm 19, almost 20) but sometimes I just want to not talk to anyone or see anyone. It's just like there's so much more then this fakeness or something... Does anybody else ever feel like this also?
There certainly are a lot of social constructs and formalities that seem contrived which I'm not entirely comfortable with. You can easily placate yourself and veg out on tv and internet but that can be just as detrimental to growth imo. Over the next several years, you may find alot of people exiting your life and many interesting people have their own issues, so try and appreciate some of those interactions.
Lol yeah. There's a lot of superficial bullshit out there. Every situation you enter into in life is gonna contain a certain amount of bullshit. It's yours to decide whether or not you want to deal with it or bail. Goodness knows I bail often enough.
enjoy those superficial problems while they last, as you get older your problems seem to only get more serious, lol! My financial situation is pretty rough right now, but know i could be doing alot worse so im just thankful for what i have. my daily workout takes the stress right out of me and i never feel very anxious or wound up. also, when things get crazy, i smoke a bowl and nigga, that shit changes your whole perception on everything!
There is no one way to handle it. We're all spiritual, but not everybody is on a spiritual quest, per se. If you are, you'll probably find yourself questioning the value of some of the things people take for granted. What I have found is that I have permission to be myself. For me this means one thing, enjoying the things I enjoy, while for others it can mean something completely different. Maybe it's just natural for some guys to wear robes and fast, but that isn't for me. And for another guy (or gal), he or she is comfortable watching sports and porno. You have to let go of passing judgment on other people and just get on with your life, your tastes. Not to say that you should just quit now and start doing whatever the hell you want to, but you could if you wanted.
The Modern World has created a culture of One-Dimensional people---they are shallow, superficial, and the meaning in their lives is completely contrived---and not even their own. You have to find your own meaning in life---that is why you are here.
I don't think the physical world as such is the problem. More the superficiality of a lot of human so called culture.
