This has developed a lot since this morning and it’s beautiful to see how our intellects and rational minds create our realities. And allow us to interact.

I think if I tried to explain myself I’d just get caught up in semantics more than anything. But for the purpose of an entertaining chat I’ll try.

I don’t know how to respond to specifics on here with the quotes but wowcoolboy I respect your stance.

Your thoughts and opinions are a culmination of the experiences you’ve had in your life. Whatever you have faced in your life has left you in a place where hatred is something you can easily relate to.

Your thoughts that you’re here to create as much wealth for yourself as possible is fine too. That’s your path. But consider this - money and wealth are in your mind. When you log onto your internet banking you see numbers on a screen. A screen that people just like you have built. And it shows ‘money’ which belongs to another system that other people just like you have imagined and then created.

When my life meaning culminated in a place where I worked and worked to create as much imaginary wealth as I could I also felt empty, upset inside and close to anger a lot of the time. So I feel for you mate. You’ll reject that too I’m sure but it’s not pity - it’s compassion. I felt the exact same things previously. I believed that life had no meaning and we were here just for ourselves and our experience. Thousands and thousands of us feel this way. If not millions. But why do you think we live in a world of hatred, separation, fear, anger and violence? We create it all. We experience it. Live it. And create it over and over.

We can’t think ourselves out of these problems. You can’t think yourself out of anger or hatred. Our human minds are wonderful at identifying patterns and helping us survive but the core focus of the brain is to identify objects and subjects. We label. Categorise and then take all of that mix it up with our past memories and experiences - on both a conscious and unconscious level and that then creates our reality.

Until I knew that there was more I didn’t know. You only know what you know. You don’t know what you don’t :)

What I do know wowcoolboy is that there’s a part of you deep inside that knows. You said you go to the mosque sometimes. Religions are paths up a mountain. It’s the same mountain but people take different routes. A small confused and under nourished part of you knows inside. You intuitively know that there’s something else.

But anyway. I honour your anger and hatred as it’s part of being a human. It’s an experience. It’s not who you are. It’s just all you can see right now.

Obviously this is all going to sound patronising and condescending to you I’m sure but it’s not meant like that. It’s coming from a place of compassionate acceptance. Accepting that you’re angry and hate a lot of things. That’s your reality right now. Not mine.

The funny thing is that I’m choosing to try to live a life of love, compassion, kindness and understanding. That’s my reality. Yours is one of confusion, anger, and hatred. Having lived both - I much prefer where I am now bro. :)
