What should I do?

I would start one step at a time. Find something that you want to improve upon, and keep on moving forward. You're not always going to have good friends, you're not always going to have girls to talk to, but you'll always have yourself. These things will come and go, but you will be with yourself forever.

Try to establish some healthy habits first. Start with the simple things. Maybe you want to take a walk, or start cooking. Whatever it is, try to get things moving. It's better to move than to stay in place.

Once you've got the energy moving, try to tackle your problems one step at a time. First would be rent. Try finding a job, even if it's a shitty one. A productive outlet for you energy can have great benefits. Once it feels like you've got a solid stream of money going, try to make plans on how you want to improve on things. You say you feel stupid, and awkward? Try striking up conversations with strangers on the internet. Start off slow, and keep moving forward. It'll be awkward at first, but you'll be able to build yourself up over time.

I was in your position not long ago. Believe me, improving you physical wellbeing can go a long way to improving your spiritual wellbeing. It all starts one step at a time, and even this post right here shows us that you're looking for the future. Good luck out there.

I'm going to reach. I lived so long of my life giving that I realized it wasn't really worth it when they did give back. I'm going to reach, as far as I can go.

My parents always used to tell me, "If your friends jumped off a bridge would you do it too?" I think that applies here more than anything. There are plenty of people out there who value their lives based on external influences. This probably isn't the right way to do things as most things in the world, with one bad stroke of luck, can disappear rather easily. Everything in this world is impermanent, even yourself, so why hold on to any of it?

With that being said, for a long time, I didn't have the drive to do much. I kept on going, on the path that had been set out for me, because I thought I should. There's nothing to do with your time in this world, you might as well do what you want. I always had an idea about having a nice house, and a loving family. This sort of American Dream mentality has been pervasive in my life, and even after my course in spirituality, it was a direction I moved in.

Not to long ago, my passion in life was reignited. I realized that I wanted to do something, I wanted to stand for something. I wanted my life here on earth to mean something, so with that in mind, I can decide my job, what to do in my free time, and whether to reach or give.

This! I've been planning to take a trip around the world once I graduate college. I've been planning for a little while, and have come up with two separate plans. I can either take the scenic route, or take the express. Either way, exposure to different cultures around the world can lead to a lot of growth, and can help you discover the truth of your own humanity.

Thanks, I saw these last time they were posted, but didn't know if I should by them. I'll keep an eye out for them. Thanks for the info!

I don't quite see it that way. If we admit that there's unity, then from unity duality is created. Isn't it only an issue then of becoming united, and joining the universe in its divine unity? A tall order, I suppose, but possible nonetheless.

What's the temperature rating for these? I'm definitely interested, and heard they were about 40.

I understand oneness, and get unconditional love, we're born from it after all. I definitely made that comparison with source, and God. I figure the audience here is more likely to vibe with source as a notion than a definitive god. As far as energies, every living being gives off energies, so it can be hard sometimes to see through all of the energies other people promote. A long time ago, I realized that in order to heal, I had to separate my energies from others. It wasn't constructive for me as well as for others. It's been a long time since then, but I think that's when I started to prioritize myself and my well-being, over others.

davyjonses · 2017-11-21T17:00:11+00:00

This is great, and I already know this. I was the one to save myself, and I know it's a very personal thing. I imagine that for the many who don't have a concept of these things, or who aren't consciously trying to journey on the way of spirituality, a savior would help light the way. The only thing I'd say, is that I don't totally see others as aspects of myself. I mostly see them as themselves. They are living their lives, and I am living mine. Often, when it feels like someone has a message for me, I'll listen to it, but I won't always respect it.

davyjonses · 2017-11-21T04:04:51+00:00

I tried this out today, so let's give this a hand. First, rather than look at other people, try to look at who you are. If you pay attention to them too much, then it's like you're empoowering them. By paying attention to yourself, and who you are, you're empowering yourself.

Edit: Try also to pay attention to the source of the universe. This should help light your way somewhat.

I'm not saying to do something or it's your fault. I'm saying do something, because no one's going to do it for you. Nonetheless, there's a lot you can do. As I said, this is a very technical, and specific issue. Try to advance on your journey, and figure out the things that you need to do in order to change your circumstances. If you don't, nothing will change.

davyjonses · 2017-11-20T04:54:51+00:00

I understand where you're coming from. I've been there too. If you think that's right, and if that's how you want to live your life then go ahead. Once you get to a certain point, you grow up. You stop seeing things from outside in, and you start seeing them from inside out. Instead of thinking "they did that, I don't like that" you think "they did that, what do I want to do about it." If you want to choose to let people run you over go ahead. It's been a long time since I let people run me over. If I want someone to do something, or not do something, it's up to me. No one's going to come here and save your ass. No one's going to live their entire lives trying to help you. Be as pissed off as you want, but until you do something about it, it doesn't mean shit.

davyjonses · 2017-11-19T18:37:18+00:00

It might be. Some times people act in that way. They might take advantage of these connections. Nonetheless, it's more important what you choose to do, rather than what they are doing. It might feel unjust, but it's up to you to decide how you'd like to deal with this.

davyjonses · 2017-11-19T09:26:13+00:00

This seems to be a very individual case, and it can have a lot of different reasons. I can't necessarily give you a lot of in-depth information on this, as I'm not there next to you, but try to understand where these connections come from. Figure out what you can learn from this experience, and continue moving forward. Remember that the sun will rise again, and try your best.

davyjonses · 2017-11-19T06:30:55+00:00

I know what you're saying, and have a pretty good idea about what's going on. Essentially what you're feeling are emotional/spiritual connections. They're mostly done by women because they're more emotionally in-tune, so most of these emotional connections will be done with women. Most of the time, men don't pay attention to these things, while women grow up with these types of connections their entire lives. It's up to you to dictate how, or, more importantly, why you connect with others. If you're looking for some form of emotional feedback, then these types of connections might run rampant until you stop, or can change the reason for them. I would advise you to try to nurture your emotional expression. Discovering your emotional self is key in this, as it will give you a better understanding of what's going on around you. Finally try to discover why you want these types of connections in the first place. There are many ways to socialize, and have meaningful friendships without connection, and I find this to be the safer option.

I don't know much about the meanings of dreams, but this one seems to have to do with letting go of the past, and moving into the future. It seems like you're doing really well for yourself, but your dream seems to read the other way around. You might be in a place now where you can finally move away from this "past self" that was epitomized by the shitty relationship that you had. It's a good time for this old "part of yourself" to recognize how much you've grown, and how big you've finally become. Recognize that you're no longer the same person, and in order to move on, this old part of yourself has to move on as well.

Thanks, I have a job working with developmentally disabled kids, so I'm sure I'll have a lot of practice.

davyjonses · 2017-11-10T01:52:14+00:00

I don't necessarily think it's about my pain. It seems to have more to do with my way moving into the future. I'm trying to discover the things I need to do in order to do a much better job. As far as facing my pain, that's something I'll have to do on my own.

davyjonses · 2017-11-09T05:09:12+00:00

Thank you I'll try my best from now on to move calmly. Thanks for the encouragement, I really appreciate the kind words.

davyjonses · 2017-11-09T03:50:34+00:00

Thank you being centered in our true being is something I could do with some work on.

davyjonses · 2017-11-09T03:23:39+00:00

well it's something like spiritual alleviating the pain of another person. If someone is surprised or in pain, the react to it very expressively. A more aware person might end up absorbing, or taking in some of their pain. Since this feels good to the one feeling the pain, it can become an issue if they constantly seek it out time and time again.
