I think experiencing different aspects of life creates depth, and that fulfilling desires creates wisdom

You not wanting to possess a girl is too self defeatist, and speaks about how little you strive for, which is indicative of how far you won't go

I feel like getting 'structure' from outside sources, especially needing to, especially wanting to get it from the greeks is for stupid people who will never be great

Looking for process for process's sake. I'd rather look for greatness, look for what makes sense, and let process eventually come from that

Then there's people like Joyce who genuinely think that their rapid, mindless expressions are is itself a worthy process. Everyone thinks he's great, but that isn't why. It's from the confidence it takes to think your fly by the moment thoughts are art

When I was younger, tripping on acid, I was talking to this guy also tripping. Because of how socially inept I was, I felt that being overly cartoonish was a good way to connect with people. I sensed him mock me so I hit him in the stomach and brought my focus inward instead of trying to socialize with that faggot. Then.. he thanked me. I didn't pay attention to why, because I knew the real reason. No one knows what the fuck they want, and they're happy to be a part of the exercised will of someone that does, even if it's negative. To experience that gives them a moment of clarity and purpose, and the fact is, I doubt the greeks were much different

And I definitely echo your thoughts on grief. For me it's obsession over a girl, I lose myself

Idk, it just didn't
I post like that often, sometimes it's right, sometimes it isn't
