  • On Knowledge of Self - On Regret

    The philosophy of: facing up to the truth and the folly (and danger) of denial

    November 14, 2018 - By Dave

    Acknowledging what is true, and what is really happening in your life, and not living in denial about things in your past is the way forward. And though it may be difficult to acknoweldge that we messed up, that someone was terrible to us, that a relationship is over, or that today will be a longass sucky, it may be…

    Can you only truly love others after you first truly love yourself? – The Philosophy of: Queen’s Somebody to Love (on Self-Love)

    November 13, 2018 - By Dave

    There’s a shit ton of songs about rescue fantasies – about how when we find someone to love us it’ll complete us, give our life meaning, or even save us. But no one can complete you, save you or give your life meaning except for you. Giving true love to others–free from attachment, jealousy or possession– can only proceed once you first love yourself.…

    If someone points out a flaw in you, you can either get upset (which may mean you acknowledge it) or you can actively try change it. & what humour’s got to do with it.

    October 6, 2018 - By Dave

    There is no perfect person. We all do absurd things and have neuroses that make no, or very little, sense to others. From time to time, some of these may be endearing, but at others, they be completely maddening to those around us. So if someone points out something that you do poorly, or lazily, that you’re always late, overly neurotic…

    The philosophy of: Charles Bukowski [pt.2]

    October 1, 2018 - By Dave

    Bukowski may have been on to something when he said ‘Find what you love, and then let it kill you’. Either way, our significance is completely insignificant, so what’s going to be the difference if you pussied out of things you were afraid of doing, or whether you did them. So if the latter is way much more fun, why…

    Whenever you feel flat or not like yourself, what do you do to bring yourself back? – The Philosophy of: Jason Mraz (and the joys of the small pleasures)

    September 23, 2018 - By Dave

    Listening to songs that you did at happy times might bring you back to it. Looking at old photos of times where you most felt the way you love to might as well. Or maybe even writing or drawing or just doing the stuff you did when you most felt happiest. What’s the song (or songs) that take you back to…

    What is Truth to you?… Honesty? Sincerity?

    September 19, 2018 - By Dave

    Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth’ – Henry David Thoereau What does truth mean to you? Is it some kind of universal truth based on science or mathematics? Or is it honesty? And sincerity? To others, and maybe most importantly, to yourself? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cxqtlEUYhk

    Are you a sapiosexual?

  • On anger - On Knowledge of Self

    You don’t trust a lot of your instincts from when you were a kid (e.g. That you can fly, one day you ‘want to be a real T-Rex’, or that you actually get 3 lives IN REAL LIFE, like in Mario Bros*), so when something sets you off or upsets you, why trust those instincts (when they were probably formed around the same time)?

    * That last one, my brother told me that one. When I found out it wasn’t true (when I was about 6), I cried.  When someone pisses you off, says something that just gets to you (and cuts deep), someone does something that immediately makes you uncomfortable, or something happens that immediately makes you cringe with anxiety or panic with…

    Question: Are you normal? (Answer: You’re not. And that’s normal.)

    August 17, 2018 - By Dave

    What is normal to you? And what’s ‘weird’? Anything unknown (and that challenges what you think is normal)? Well that can basically everything. What you see as weird is perfectly normal to someone somewhere. And vice versa. So there is no normal. The problem with trying to be normal is that only you truly know you. No one will ever know all the things…

    Getting upset with people is not about them doing things because they don’t like or respect you, it’s a question of how much you like and respect yourself – How to stay calm with people (Look for the pin)… The philosophy of: The School of Life

    August 13, 2018 - By Dave

    If someone pisses you off or disappoints you, that is not an issue of them purposely doing things because you are easy to take advantage of, you are stupid or that you don’t deserve respect. People doing things to upset us is decided by us. If someone disappoints us, it’s not that they have done something that directly hurt us, it’s…
