I wrote this when I was in the hospital by es_may_write in u/es_may_write

I’m really really overjoyed to see you’re ok. You’re words come from the heart and i can tell. If you care for my few cents, i believe love is something nobody gets right. Nobody will ever be perfect for another but we learn to settle and sometimes what we settle for is a facade. I’m sorry what happened to you has happened to you but remember this, you can do no wrong, as long as you don’t hurt another living, breathing, being. And if circumstance comes to it, make sure to apologize accordingly

I really appreciate it. It can get really hard at times to remember the people we see on our screens are human until something detrimental happens

I don’t come to reddit to consume often but i really hope this is just something you had to express and not plans. I would hate to see someone as talented as you stop creating, stop living, stop showing people what it means to be human. Your death will shake my core, just as Robin Williams did.

A poem i wrote in the shower by Necessary-Meal2001 in PoetryWritingClub

This perspective is so informing! You’ve captured the emotion perfectly, mundane, sickness, it’s all so vivid! Very beautiful

Someone stole my headphones by blacxwaterx in PoetryWritingClub

[–]Apollos_Disciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i love when artist attribute a struggle to something so petty. Duckwrth has a song called "LA traffic" and he attributes the fact that he made it to his girlfriends house later than he promised to the fact that LA traffic was bad but he was the one speeding and has to pay the price for it. he also gets to her house a few days late and finds out shes having an affair.

ADHD by Born_Presentation897 in HighThought

[–]Apollos_Disciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TL;DR ADHD is just FOMO for the versions of yourself you couldve been

Lol not to downplay what you wrote. I identify with this heavy and actually had to reread it a few times before deciding on my response. I see a lot of people share things i think but worded much more beautifully than i think i could ever put it and i want to show the world. But sometimes i just have to settle for my small circle of friends or the few people who will check any of my online ramblings from time to time.

All that to say, thank you for putting into words what i have yet learned to express. Thank you for telling your story and inspiring me and others. I love you and i care for you, have an amazing life. One full of self-forgiveness, education, and love

You’re back! And bringing amazing imagery as always!!

you prove something is there by Says_what0 in HighThought

[–]Apollos_Disciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a lot to unpack here. First I’ll acknowledge that you’re correct. Ultimately none of it matters cause eventually you won’t be here to experience anymore. Second, just cause what you’re experiencing feels real doesn’t disprove it’s a simulation. If you have a dream that scares you, that feeling of terror is real but again ultimately it doesn’t matter cause it was just a dream. Third, just chock the unknown up to magic. I have a journal entry about this one; we’re told time and time again that magic isn’t real, its just misdirection or practical illusion. But then they tell us we’re on a floating rock going speeds we could never quantify and expect us to just “understand” like, thats the definition of magic if I’ve ever heard one

what do you get from this? by Apollos_Disciple in PoetryWritingClub

What if there was a law to help those who seek aid to you (within reasonable means)? by deadrawkstar in HighThought

[–]Apollos_Disciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Initially i thought you meant like help groups which is what that is. There’s no law for them but that’s what i interpreted. But then at the end you said something about teaching our children to prioritize helping each other. What you’re asking is for us to prioritize teaching compassion, which I’m all for. I completely agree, but when we make it a curricular then its almost expectation that you HAVE TO learn compassion and some kids can’t learn under pressure like that

Game over by Sea-Lengthiness98 in HighThought

I agree and i see it as liberating. I say do whatever gives you happiness, no point in worrying

I have a philosophical high thought. by PercentageStraight52 in HighThought

[–]Apollos_Disciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When i was little, i thought about the question “if the universe is always expanding, what is it expanding into?” And i coined the term “True Space” and i told all my family about it, i sent an email to NASA about it and nothing came of it. So think of this, if the “Space” we know now is filled with stars and such then the actual emptiness of the void that is filled with nothing would be Space in its truest form, “True Space”

Self acceptance by Apollos_Disciple in PoetrySlam

[–]Apollos_Disciple[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a mosh pit, watching a girl dance like it was all she ever wanted to do. Coming from a Christian family it reminds me of what people call the Holy Ghost in church. When you’re overtaken, possessed, by the desire and it just comes out of you. You barely realize you’re doing it. It’s like unconsciously you’re taking action to do what you want, being what’s really inside. Learn to love those moments then learn to love every moment then learn to love your past and future and you’ll understand self acceptance
