I grunt and moan to signify my effort and enjoyment.

I would say that most things in life are changeable. Being happy with yourself doesn’t mean you stop striving to be better. It means you accept yourself for your faults and all. Strive to be a better version of yourself every day no matter how small. Start small changes and build up.
I hear people say “You are perfect just the way you are” but that isn’t true. Perfection is a goal to never be achieved but is always sought after.
I do not speak to the aspects of our political landscape or the position of our society but the framing of our lives and how we can effect it.
In fact I found quite a bit more happiness and perspective when I seperated myself from political and societal issues.
I appreciate your candor in these talks.

I believe it is easier to see mentally ill people because I was depressed at one point and noticing the behaviors is easier. While I don’t subscribe to the “we are all mentally ill” frame of mind, I do believe that it is a good majority of humans.
I believe that chasing happiness is ultimately impossible. However, being happy with ones self and coming to terms with your reality and accepting what you can and cannot change is possible. Do not dwell on what you cannot change and change what you can.
I have noticed through my own actions and the action of others that we limit ourselves through self sabotage. If we sabotage ourselves and stop ourselves from actually failing then we already know the outcome and cannot be more discouraged than if we actually try. This is why I say accept failure and learn from it. “It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life” -Jean-Luc Picard

People glorify adulting as some kind of ultimate maturity for ones self. It is not that. Adulting is predicting what can and won’t be your life. Surviving better each day. While also keeping after yourself in a healthy manner.
We are always growing until we die. Adulting is accepting what can be and what can’t be and living with yourself.
Perceive reality as it is and accept the successes and failures along the way.
One day you will see people for what they are and are not. That day your awareness of the world will change.
I’ve noticed it has become easier to see liers as I’ve gotten older and mentally ill people.

Firstly, I appreciate your candid response. It is great that you enjoy what you do not many people get that. Secondly, congratulations on the remote position. I am sure that helps a lot to prevent burn out.

You definitely have a point which is why I try to avoid it most days.

I’ve been out of a job and going to school through the VA for 4 years. I love it. I do projects to improve my home,I visit family without limits, and go to different states on a whim just to see them. If I want to go to see or do anything in the middle of the day I just leave. Working until your too old to do anything isn’t sounding great.

This honestly sounds like propaganda trying to convince people this is a thing.

Any political idea that differs from someone else’s seems to get you these labels. They really don’t like it when you straight up tell them you are not going to continue the dialogue and call you one of these two things to get the last word.

You may be right. Didn’t think of that one.
- Comment on Open for discussion 1 year ago:
I mentioned a few ways the Democrats and Republicans are similar and the “open” minded Democrats just started trying to demean me. Not one Republican btw. Blows my mind the irony of these extremists.

Must be nice. We should get fiber where I live soon and Xfinity won’t be the monopoly anymore.
- Comment on How much data can I download on umetered connection? 1 year ago:
I know Xfinity has a limit but I pay to have none. CenturyLink does not have a limit. So you may not have a limit. Google if your IP has a data cap.
