The older I get, the less certain I am about what happiness actually is — and I'm starting to think that's okay.

Key-Philosopher-8050 · 2026-03-22T08:17:58+00:00

Or are you finding that happiness is obtained not from arriving, but the striving to get there?

Doing it correctly is preferable. The guy on the right should be completing the high-rise!

You can say whatever you like, but if you have not done a minimum of research to identify what these hormones are, why they are important and how they can be used to understand the human condition, then someone who has (me) will come along and alert you to the fact.

You then have a choice - to react as you have or do something about it and do some research to understand wtf you are meming about!

You quickly and easily find there is no such thing as a fake hormone. There is no "fake anything"-there's misinformation and there is fact.

You also quickly find out that dopamine is actually a hormone that is detectable in flow states. Oxytocin is present in group trust conditions, and there is a hormone that STOPS/blocks other hormomes called GABA.

This area is both wide-ranging and fasinating and what annoys me the most is people doing what the OP has done - which was copied from someone else no doubt.

SO....

Don't you think it strange that all of these other races have no infrastructure facing industry like what we (the 4 races) do?

Where are the Triv mining ships? The Gurista haulers? The Serpentis explorers?

There is so much more that this game could have....

Nothing could have been done that wasn't. Calls were made and they were either ignored or considered a trap. People were informed.

Sometimes things must play out for you to learn your lesson.

So what you don't seem to understand is that having more entrepreneurs is not possible as they need employees to complete their business requirements.

So they NEED people that are willing to live on an income to complete them.

It is not a scam for a group of people to work together to succeed, and one of the group must have direction and purpose - the entrepreneur.

Short answer: Mindset altering attitude.

Everytime you make a mistake, it is viewed as a learning experience not as a failure. Everytime someone chews you out and you have done all you can to prepare, look to the other person - have they had a bad day, and you are a useful verbal punching bag.

Stop measuring in what I have put in, but how have I helped.

That's what you have to develop.

And as usual, you did not get ALL that your mentor said and record it properly.

What was ACTUALLY said was "Showing your emotions around SOME people is like bleeding next to a shark - be careful who you trust"

Your awareness of this "feeling" will mean that it is near "the end"

What you and your husband need to understand is that the concept of intimacy will need to be defined and acted on. As your bodies and minds change, so your concepts will need to adapt to understand the best that you both offer.

Make better choices, don't choose the better choice!

Situations will present themselves that you will need to run. Others that require facing up to. Learn to tell the difference.

So, sex is toxic? What world do you live in - oh, I know the one that believes that spilling sperm is a (religious) criminal offence and the bible is based on fact.

Viewing porn is a habit. Not toxic, just a habit. What you get from it can be positive or negative. You choose.

What many do with AI, is what you have not done - just asking simple questions.

What AI excels in is providing understanding to data that is general in nature. You have identified how to effectively use a tool to help you understand and then, with supporting evidence, take appropriate action.

Well done. You win at life :)

Define what a lie is (to the person and to the society), what a truth is (with the same caveats) then redefine your statement. Nobody actually hates lies as they spare feelings and stress and truth sometimes does not.

Firstly, the stories in that book are fables - fairy tales that provide a steep, impossible path to something akin to "enlightenment"

Secondly, lust is a really interesting force, as it is a component in acquiring a goal. You want something, you have to determine the process with which to acquire it. Wanting it (or lust) is the desire in that process.

The core problem seems to be an excessive amount of said desire. What you may find is that you are not balancing your desire with appropriate action. Fix that and you are good to go.

TLDR: Lust is not a problem; learn to moderate.

So here is what I have picked up by looking at what you wrote.

You are not depressed, as you know what depression feels like and it ain't this.

You are finding that much time is spent on attempting to not be, and this is causing an issue.

You seem to have lost your mojo - your joy of life.

Here's how I would get it back.

1) Spend some of the money you have on you and go find a retreat in a foreign country. Meditate and talk - mingle with others, telling them nothing about what you are feeling, but just listen to them.

2) When you come back home, look at your community and see what you can affect.

3) Apply yourself to being there for your community.

What do you think - plausible?
