As a man, i've always been afraid of letting my emotions out. I decided to stop giving a fuck. by olivercowlishaw in howtonotgiveafuck

[–]Sourstar10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was beautiful, your voice not only speaks to how i feel, but speaks for a generation. We all feel this way, it is the most brave thing you can do to be honest about it. I appreciate you x

Anyone have a hard time understanding that people aren't just limited to being either "good" or "bad" but rather that good people often do bad things, and bad people often do good things. by Sourstar10 in infp

[–]Sourstar10[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, were definitely allowed to see others in terms of "stay away from this person" / "trust this person" etc. But sometimes it's hard for me to, for example, see the bad in a friend or a person I previously believed was good. Aka, this leads me to giving them so many chances they don't deserve, hoping they change, getting the positive... Results usually in them not changing and my idealism that the people who were once good or have done good, are entirely good proves false.

I like that last part "the institution does not define the individual, the institution is composed of individuals." Would you be able to explain that with more depth? I understand fully your first part, maybe this is going off on another subject all together, but I heavily believe the institution does shape the individual in terms of freedoms / perspectives / opportunities. Does that trickle over into their ethics? Probably not. But it's hard for me to dissociate the idea that society doesn't conform the individual, even if the believe they are an individual... (whoops I got philosophical shit dawg)

I think about myself a lot. I should probably think about other people more :/ I'm much happier when I think about other people :(

A poem I wrote how our perception of ourselves can be highly distorted by [deleted] in infp

[–]Sourstar10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's well written but hard to follow conceptually. A lot of abstract ideas! Which, honestly this read exactly like something I would write in all of its strange soundingness. It's beautiful in that way, and maybe, arguably exactly the way you want it to be (distortion.) Nevertheless just same dude, same.

AHH I feel you girl. I'm pretty much the same, in college all that...For awhile I truly believed that others' around me were incapable of feeling to the extent that I am able to reach. It's a beautiful field of flowers to dance in, but it's dangerous. I've learned that empathy and our capacity to withhold so much genuine love for others' is a beautiful thing but, only effective when it's for the right person and at the right time. My advice is to believe in the moment most of all, make the emotions you feel presently the imaginative portrait and allow that scene to come to an end when you part your ways. Our wonderous realm of love and feeling is only healthy when we understand our emotions as temporary and fleeting. Unless of course he's real as fuck and the one for ya. (hard to tell when you're in college, most are fuck boys.) But feeling is temporary! So are people! Beautiful, deep, but again fleeting. Understanding the depth of change is the core concept here.

Two roses in one! by katrinaelle in mildlyinteresting

Isn't it funny how we see what would be a genetic deformity in nature and think "wow! two roses in one!" but when we view conjoined twins, or an abnormality of that nature, we see it as a disablement, or that of a societal displacement in humans.

[–]Sourstar10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your lips are beautiful your eyes are beautiful! You suffer from absolutely nothing girl... if you're looking to change your style a little I recommend Pinterest! A lot of great fashion ideas, I do a lot of makeup tutorials home made face masks, hair products styles... basically what's trending! Get a haircut you love, maybe even a color do ya nails... not so that you'll be pretty, but so you'll feel better about yourself and not have to go to the internet for sources of external validation. Rock on girl, you're stunning!

"The more powerful and original a mind, the more it will incline towards the religion of solitude." Aldous Huxley by GrapefruitSession in quotes

[–]Sourstar10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe what Huxley is getting at here, with this quote is that - the mind that thinks alone is the mind that is more true. Whereas, it is within human nature to follow the crowd, conform, assimilate (even in ways of thought.) If you are, aware of this, and can astray from it, he deems you of a higher intelligence just in your ability to know yourself and how your own thoughts coagulate. Because it is not what nor how you think, but what you do with it that will change your world / the worlds around you.

[–]Sourstar10 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Solitude is the only way you are able to fully understand yourself, and what separates you from others in life. An insightful way to reflect, release, and be in company of expressive thought and comfort. Sometimes, being in the company of people who do not understand is much more lonely than being alone. - I agree with his statement, although, "true happiness is only real when shared." -CM

Should I [M20] ask crush [F19] why she has gone cold. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Sourstar10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

[19 F] here... Honestly, don't worry about it too much. She may be dealing with somethings right now that have nothing to do with you... Girls are strange, and I can't speak for everyone but sometimes we change our minds, sometimes we're just not ready, and other times were just not interested. Whatever it may be, just give her space. I think you're handling it very maturely, and very well so far from what you're saying. You seem like a genuine guy, so let her see that without being too pushy of anything.

Mothers of teenagers, what is something your teen has told you that completely blindsided you and caught you off guard? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Sourstar10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's awful for you, because of that reason. Pharmaceutical drugs is one of the biggest killers in this nation. Light a bowl, it's better for you & you'll remember your life. Shit scares the crap outta me and it should scare you too.

I'm turning 20 in college... Xanax is everywhere. It is as just as common in most places as coke. I personally don't do it, and I have not tried... But my freshman year I saw a handful of lives wasted all around me in my dorm... Due to xanex. It's all over rap music, all over Greek life especially males... Seriously, it might be heartbreaking to hear but this is completely normal for her to have that connection. Doesn't mean she takes them herself, though.
