I think what bothers me most is the concept of forever. The belief that our consciousness never dies, that, in essence, we never die. Life is never-ending. Samsara is never-ending. We're on a ride that we can't get off of. |

“It’s... your conscience. We don’t talk a lot these days.”
It is both amazing and terrifying. I used to run into people who would say something like "I think I am on my fifth life" and I find that funny. For beings who first became near the beginning of this cycle (say 100 million years after the Big Bang) the number of full lives they could have lead is insane! |

You know what is really scary? Go look up "solipsism". Glad I don't believe in it, but, it did freak me out for a day a few years back. |

I wonder if this is caused by what was going on in the world right now? Or The fact you are experiencing this because we are super aware because of lucid dreaming and other practices? It’s a troubling paradox— |

I used to get it a lot when I going through highschool and University. I was severely depressed at the time though. I am not sure if I was depressed because how weird it is to actually be conscious, or if being depressed made me more actutely aware of the existential dread. |

They say dreaming is dead, no one does it anymore.
It's not dead it's just that it's been forgotten, removed from our language.
Nobody teaches it so nobody knows it exists.
The dreamer is banished to obscurity.
Well, I'm trying to change all that, and I hope you are too.
By dreaming, every day.
so, June is here .. |

It actually feels like fall here for the past few days. Took a walk in the woods and I found some Spring Oyster mushrooms. |

Thanks for all the advice guys, it's very comforting to know that I'm not the only one who's experienced it. |

Rant: My wife's car's AC was broken so we dropped it off at the shop. They said $600-! I agreed and they called me today and said a part was needed and it would be $1,100. I told them No Way and took the car back. |

Basically where the bottom-side of a person's foot has moderate to high pain or tenderness and generally involves inflammation, if I recall correctly. |

You are so good, Dark. Of course you would give them the benefit of the doubt. I, on the other hand, would be thinking the mechanic was trying to rip you off. Mechanics don't exactly have a reputation for honesty... |

Well, I generally agree that many mechanics don't really try to problem-solve the actual issues and just skip to replacing the entire "whatever" that is faulty but at the same time I don't want to say that all mechanics are like that, because it's the same with every profession; there are just many people who don't care for what they do despite the fact they are "professionals" in that area. On one hand, it's annoying and doesn't paint a great picture for the world, and on the other hand it's also understandable since more effort is rarely well rewarded in society at large, anyway. |
