Another day going to my dead end job at Disney World. I dread having to serve and clean up after fat, infantilized middle-aged guests from the Midwest. The foreigners are typically nice, when the Latin American families aren’t leaving their filthy trays on the table and leaving. But the Americans have no respect for us workers. They require convenience. It’s a life or death situation in their eyes amidst this Florida heat.

I’m just glad I have a job.

You know, one thing I never knew before the internet was that people actually strongly desire having relationships and sex. I enjoy them myself of course, but it's just another part of life, whereas for many people on 4chan it's like the most important thing in the world. I wonder if this division has always been around, like today's ">tfw no gf" guys are the same type as the young guys in bildungsromans that get obsessed with young girls like in Steppenwolf and Oh Human Bondage, and the others just preoccupy themselves with an ambition or hobby or something. Not to say they're black and white or necessarily fixed, though.

watching that painting makes me think myth is vital to man; wisdom is characterized by the acceptance of uncertainty.

it's like we're all in a feverish dream and some switch just broke... work and work, fake smiles, fake souls, no story, fake joy; we're so confident that we are in full control that our hubris creates large voids of space; colorless no matter what we pour in them.

doubt has ravaged our souls; and after it no faith can ever surmount to make up the time lost. even children today are withered; such is the path we choose; for knowledge always comes at a price of being.

Im tired of all this, its all for nothing. Everything thats happened, the time, chances and people lost. I dont want to do this anymore. I dont want to struggle all my life and try my best just for a Pryhic victory, or less. All the regrets and mistakes, fuck, I just wish I could have known differently back then. I wish I could do something to make this all right instead of just ending it. I guess I thought life was a lot like fiction, that there would be a ending, a proper ending with all the characters and tying up all the loose ends and everything coming to some sort of conclusion.

Its not though. These unanswered questions and everything thats happened, its never going to change. This is the new status quo. I cant believe I let this all happen but I know I couldnt have done anything. I feel like I made a mistake in arriving at this place but I dont think there was any other destination either.

All these moments are just going to be lost too, the memories and the people, gone, forever. Just like it never happened. Sometimes Im not sure as to whether it did or not. Just left with nothing but more regrets.
Im tired of all this.

>In so far as the citizens of the Western democracy have really gone wrong, they have not inherently or quite naturally gone wrong. They have been taught wrong; instructed wrong; educated wrong; exalted and uplifted wrong. A huge heresy, rather peculiar to modern times, yet singularly uncriticised by modern critics, has actually perverted them in a way which is not really very consonant to their personalities. The real, natural Americans are candid, generous, capable of a beautiful wonder and gratitude; enthusiastic about things external to themselves; easily contented and not particularly conceited. They have been deliberately and dogmatically taught to be conceited. They have been systematically educated in a theory of enthusiasm, which degrades it into mere egotism. The American has received as a sort of religion the notion that blowing his own trumpet is as important as the trump of doom.

Everyday Chesterton gives me something to marvel at his superhuman genius. Even the line "trump of doom" is almost spookily prescient, as it seems to contain traces of echoes of our Trump of doom.

Why isn't this guy taught in highschools or at least undergraduate more often? Too white? Too male?

There is this massive black hole in my chest from when I was a kid, and a shitty neglectful doctor forced me into benzo withdrawal. I spent three years lying in bed fighting for my life, when everything felt like it was on fire and I wanted to die. I survived something that very few children tend to live through, but no matter what I do, nothing can fill the void. There is no bottom to that hole, I can't stack the things I love, use them to replace what was once there because they just fall into this endless pit, never to be seen again. It's as if there is an inky dark eclipse robbing the whole world of light, but when I look up into the sky I'm the only one who can see it. It is only there for me.

I cannot find anyone who understands this. I am still alive, but infinitely alone.

I'm in the university library right now, watching the day turn to night from above. it's so calm and cosy.
my first month of uni hasn't passed yet. I'm loving this freedom I'd never experienced. just being able to sit in the central station for hours on end watching life go by, smoking a cigarette every hour just because no one's stopping me and spending afternoons reading in local cafes because it makes me feel like I might look like someone I'd be happy to look like.
the experiences are endless. city life means I can do anything. and it's really wonderful.

but I'm starting to notice that I'm enjoying it alone. I miss my old friends a bit. everyone seems to have found their people here, but I spend my days alone and sometimes just talk to myself to make sure I still remember how to talk.

The bathroom stall is a safe space. Total vigilance doesn't reach there. It would be a counterproductive measure to install cameras in the bathroom stalls. We could sue them. But maybe they have hidden cameras. Perhaps inside the toilets. It would be too risky to leave such a place unwatched. I could sleep here, if that were the case. If I needed to sleep, that is. Kneel on top of the toilet and close my eyes. The place would be swarmed with homeless people. I could shoot speed or place a bomb. It's too risky to not have cameras. That must mean I'm being watched. I wonder if it's somebody's job to watch live CCTV footage 24/7. Or if CCTV footage is held in an archive in case something happens. I would like to not be videotaped while I'm in taking a shit or masturbating during office hours. Another pill, yes. I'm sweating. I need a cigarrette. AC is not working.

Life could be so much more. The truth of this statement is as true of the unaspiring layabout as it is the staunchest up and at it go getter. We are all like medieval peasants stuck in our times and station, content with the idea that things will never change and that it will always be like this. On the contrary everything is bursting at the seams with possibilities. The future, even the next minute, the next hour, the next day, is as plastic and open ended as a ball of puddy.

Everything crackles with limitless potential if only one's imagination is on par with nature's. You simply need to dip your hand into the flow of things to discover something new and delightful.

But the modern person, including myself, seems more intent on building a private fortress-prison for himself than venturing into the unknown. The world has become a distant, untrustworthy thing, full of rejection and dangers. The coward is brave and the brave is a fool. We've lost touch with the wisdom of life of the ancients. They were more real than us, more man, more woman than us.

I despise my family who gawk at me for living and working in far off places they believe are dangerous and evil. Their outlook on the world is exactly as you have described. They hate their own country because of what they’ve been told about it, and yet they themselves have never been out there. They have not journeyed beyond the next hill, and it is up to me to come back and laugh in their faces about how wrong they are. Have you ever realized how childish a 65 year old man is who lives and functions in this way, the closed off fashion my father does?

I never remember my dreams; the space between drifting off and unpleasant awakening is smooth vellum. My memory is similarly absent, large patches of blank space in between fleeting glimpses of a barely-remembered past. My mother looks at me with worry when I admit That I’m unable to recall birthdays and Christmases, schoolteachers and relatives.
Where would I be now without these incomplete gaps dotting my consciousness? If I could remember my dreams, to have that level of unconscious awareness open to me; if I could just recall more of my experiences, to have learned from them beyond the short term and carry that growth forward with me to the here and now. It’s like some aspect of my essential self lies just out of reach, the unconscious me, the me that lives in times lost to the past.
Would my life be the same if I could touch this part of me? Would I have made more of it? Is there something inexorably wrong with my brain, some rot eating away at the parts of me that I try unsuccessfully to look back upon?

I visited Europe this summer and was struck by how small it felt. Flying over the continent the various countries passed below in due course, Ireland was a wink, Great Britain a sliver of cold beef in the early morning light, France a sleepy flat plain of listless villages and fields, Switzerland a jutting, magnificent crown of mountains with nary a sign of life.

The whole continent seemed like a fragile antique, a brittle piece of craftsmanship that could easily break if dropped. I wondered how this place managed to have such an exaggerated impact on world history when Asia looms over it like a hungry giant.

A critical lack of conscious observation leads one to surmise that all subjective things, including those present only in the individual, are of a most stellar, or spectacular nature. I would say this assumption is indicative of a problem that goes beyond the mind of the individual, and perhaps reaches into the very will or fortitude of the individual. Without question, there is a certain sort of "attitude" or stigma which seems to present in the individual as a form of intellectual deficiency. To separate deficiency from degradation, it could be said of the mind to allow for a more spiritual sense of intuition, the likes of which would not be in the disposition of degeneracy to fit itself with. On the contrary, intellectual degeneracy seems to invoke a sort of disdain, unique in its sensation and not wholly attached to the personal feelings of the individual. In this way, disdain could be spoken of as an unnatural sort of feeling, which does necessarily preclude the attitude of the individual.

The bible is one of the most complex documents in all of known history, even core tenets such as the Trinity takes years of study to truly understand. But, no rather than the most learned scholars teaching the ignorant masses on scripture the protestants think that anyone no matter how dumb, how illiterate can form true opinions on this complex document. Even people who have never read the bible, aka most Christians can form opinions on it.

To find out the more sinister and hidden motivations behind the spread of this retarded doctrine we need to look at more complex power analysis. All power institutions want to expand, this is the nature of power and so the Christian Monarchs would allow Protestantism to take over their nation so that they could gain even more power. By eliminating the church as a competing institution of power.

And here is where it gets interesting Liberalism which is similarly asinine, and has similarly ridiculous ontology has managed to take over the entire world (or most of it) and how did it do this? Liberals seem to think that it was “the people” carrying out these liberal revolutions, but this is just insane, the average person is an idiot, I don't want to sound harsh but it's true. These ideas must have come from some area of power and they did, much like Protestantism was a facade for expansion of the Monarch’s power, liberalism this seemingly liberating ideology took power because institutions such as the media wanted to expand their power.


I'm new to politics and philosophy and even newer to power analysis so I'd really like some critiques of this.

i just want to be a man and have firm opinions. i can't hold a opinion for more than a few weeks because i'm always looking out for new information and arguments. basically, i want to stop being an agnostic and start being a full fedora atheist. if i can remove the fear of an afterlife, i'll finally fucking kill myself without any doubts, really. i got some sleeping pills from a friend and when i used it, i blacked out almost instantenously waking up 14 hours later. there was not a single dream no a moment of awareness. if death is like this, then how can it be so taboo? i don't want to be edgy here, but it's literally the best thing that could occur to me.

Scientists give us 50 years. I will likely see the reinvention of humankind or the extinction. Society has grown so large collapse is inevitable. The poor and stupid are having more and more children while the rich and smart bear fewer and fewer children. Natural selection has been eliminated and the human race grows weaker and less intelligent by the day. This doesn't bother me too much, but it is an unsettling thought.

once i was sleeping in the garden only to wake up and find my balls had been bited off by ants. i went to school with a huge pain and a huge bulge and i got bullied for 2 weeks and they called me balls of steel haha

i know you want to put down a generic whiny post, but trust me anon, i think i'm in actual pain. i had to drop out of college because of my health. IBS attacked me and i'd wake up in the morning shitting water for 9 or 10 times, each time more painful and pathetic, essentially leaving me no time to do anything in the morning. it was like this for 5 years, only recently, 2 months ago that it stopped completely, but the damage was done. i live in a shithole with no neetbux and colleges have a rule that if you drop out for more than 2 years you have to re do the course. this means that i'll only finish it when i'm 29 years old. the time that i should have a stable career and enjoying life i'll be a man straight out of college. there's then the sleep deprivation part. i have full raging blasting tinnitus that prevents me from sleeping. nothing works against it and it's literally deafening. doctor said that if i don't treat it the sleep deprivation will cause permanent neurological damages, and i think that has already begun. i can feel my iq decreasing, i'm forgetful and writing that was so easy for me to do back then takes me hours nowadays. there's also the fact that i'm your typical 4channer, meaning that i never had any positive experience with girls, i have literally zero friends and absolutely no life prospects. also i have a brother who's a enterpreneur and already has 3 kids and a expensive house. i get compared to him every day and my dad says that he's living life for me, that is, he already has 3 kids, he already secured my dad's offspring while i'm a virgin. just let me go already reeeee don't you think i deserve a honorable death?

I often wonder if anons who say they'll kill themselves once their parents pass away really mean it. I've heard it in so many posts, yet I ask myself if it's just a very common and natural self-rationalization that people use to hide behind, when the truth is that they can't actually muster the will to kill themselves to begin with. This post isn't meant to discourage people from thinking this way of course, I just suspect that it's a coping mechanism that people genuinely believe but is really a lie they tell themselves and that they just don't know it.

>> No.11909297

>>11909282
Probably a little of both. I sometimes fantasize about killing myself after my parents pass away but even then I’d have siblings so I wouldn’t do it. I view the parents thing as just another obstacle in the way of people killing themselves, it’s not the only thing keeping them from doing it but it is part of it. So one day after their parents are long gone and they have a shit enough day, it’s possible that all the other justifications aren’t enough and the thought of their parents wont be their to push them to survive. Most people who say that probably wouldn’t off themselves as soon as their parents passed but they’d probably be more likely to do it after they passed.

I feel like a fucking fish in an huge pound where women just throw bait in, jiggle it around, wait for me to notice it, and then as soon as I get my act together and go for it, they reel in and leave the pound.So I just stand and wonder what the hell just happened for a while, and, as soon as I forget about it and go about my fish life, another fisherman comes in, throws his fishing line, and the cycle continues, and it will, until I die I guess.

And now a new bait has been thrown, it's looking tastier than ever and I'm just tired of it, I know if I show even the slightest bit of interest in it, it'll be gone forever, and if I keep it up and don't show any, it'll just leave. So I think I'll just float around with my fish mates.

Wage slavery has to be one of the most humiliating things civilisation invented, outside of actual slavery itself.

Working for some fuckoff boss at a dirty bar or a nondescript administrative company or a giant, empty warehouse just doing meaningless work to be able to pay the rent isn't "ennobling", its frustrating and soul-crushing. So many wage slaves are either openly depressed or they've just found a way to drown their sorrows every weekend and put on a facade of happiness in the meantime.

Why do you think things like video games, porn, netflix, fast food, reality TV, etc. are consumed in such high quantities? Because people feel hollow inside, and have to rely on cheap distractions in order to numb the pain. If this work was truly as "ennobling" as you say, people would be far less likely to waste their time with such frivolities.

This idea for a science fiction story. It revolves around a story keeper. In the future people are employed, recruited, or destined to be story keepers. Their role is simple they have to root out and eliminate any foriegn stories that are trying to derail the societies grand narative. So, the protagonist realises that the grand narative is flawed and hopeless. And yadda yadda changes the world, which was the initial reason that the grand narative didn't work - because it relied on a grand hero arrising and changing everything.

Visit different churches to find one that’s “right” for you, don’t just settle for whatever’s closest.
As someone who’s attended a lot of different churches, you’ll absolutely know when you find the right one for you.
As for what other people will think? Most churches will be happy to have you, and as for people in your life, who cares? If they’re true friends and family, it won’t make a difference to them that you’ve found Jesus so long as you aren’t militant about it, and if being a Christian is enough for them to drop you, they probably weren’t healthy relationships to begin with.

I'm starting to wonder why I bother reading philosophy at all. I remember that ecstatic feeling I had as a kid when I first discovered philosophy - it seemed so esoteric, so unknown, almost magical. Now that I've read most of the big names from the Greeks, to Scholastics, to Muslims, to most of the moderns (including our friendly speculative materialists) I just feel incredibly disappointed.

It's simply incredible how myopic so many philosophers can be. Just idiot savants spending a lifetime on pet theories without once batting an eye at the insanity they're putting down on the page to question what implications it could have, or whether or not it might be too simplistic to make sense of the wider world in which they live. Brains on fire, possessed by the strongest kind of autism.

And then you also have the dudebro tier Easterners who have countless volumes that sooner or later boil down to similar if not identical core concepts. I remember feeling legitimate anger the first time I read Zhuangzi.

The fact of the matter is, most philosophers are the same as most readers of philosophy: they don't give a fuck about what the truth of the matter is. They either want to fuck over some guy that came before them and take possession of their fame, or they're simpletons that want to validate their preconceptions in outlandish ways. That's it.

I've literally wasted my teens and twenties reading philosophy only to discover it's a fucking joke. But there is no catharsis. Rather than thinking now that it's time to go outside, that it's time to read a fucking fiction book after five years, or god forbid play a video game, my one and only instinct is to tell myself I just haven't found the right guy yet. That somewhere out there is some obscure fucking nutter that I've yet to read, that's somehow going to give meaning to my pitiful existence and give me the same kind of certainty that Kantfags and Hegelfags get.

Got up early today and took a long, introspective hike up a mountain. I was thinking about where I am in life, where I'm going. All the people I miss and times I wish I could have back. And of course my crush, who I finally admitted my feelings to months ago and naturally turned me down. It was really cold and windy at the top, but I sat and looked out at the world for a while. Then I grabbed the peak log and wrote a goodbye to the friends I've fallen away from and a short note to her saying how much I cherished our time together and that I was sorry that it ended the way it did. And that I missed her, of course. Even though I hadn't seen her for months this was the first time it felt like I was actually saying goodbye, and I teared up a little. After that I walked back down and went home. Now I'm just drinking tea and listening to a bittersweet playlist of songs I played when she was still in my life. When I still had that childish love for her and wonder for how good the future could be.

I miss that feeling.

Time to move on I guess The pain is still there, but it's faded to a dull melancholy from the overwhelming despair I was facing early in the summer. I don't really know what I'll do, probably just see where the wind blows me.

9. PSYCHOPATHIC DESIGN IS BEST CHARACTERIZED BY THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE IN WHICH ANIMALS ARE 'PROCESSED.' ANIMALS ARE LIVING SYMBOLS, OR SYMBOLS OF LIFE THAT

ARE ANIMATE, AND ARE IN SPIRIT CHILDREN OF GOD. THE DEAD SCIENCE, LACKING OUR BASIS, CORRALS ANIMALS IN CORRIDORS OF AUTOMATION, SEQUESTERING THEM FROM

THE WHOLE OF THE WORLD, AND THROUGH THE SPECIALIZATION OF MECHANIZED SLAUGHTER, MUTILATES THEM FOR THEIR VISCERA, RESULTING IN HELLSCAPE, THE

LOWERING OF ENERGY SIGNATURE AND ENDING THIER LIVES IN CHAOTIC DEATH.

THE PSYCHOPATH IS BY NATURE A VAMPIRIC BEING, A PARASITIC BEING, WHOM EXTRACTS PLEASURE FROM MURDER, AND WHOM ENGORGES HIMSELF ON SLAIN, INNOCENT

I was standing at the counter in a coffee shop today waiting for my coffee. A cute girl was sitting in the corner eating her lunch. She called over to me and asked me how the line was. I replied that it was short at the moment and that i would go for it if i were her. She smiled, thanked me and went to line up.
After 30 seconds i glanced at her and found that she was already looking at me. She gave me a big smile and i did my best to muster up a smile back.
Once she got her coffee she came and sat at a table near mine. I desperately wanted to go and talk to her, but every time i tried to gather the courage to do so i felt myself start to slightly shake and then stopped myself from doing so.
I sat there in silence, scrolling mindlessly through 4chan on my phone, praying that she would come and talk to me.
After 30 minutes she got up and left. I feel like such a bitch. I spend so much time feeling lonely and wishing i had a gf, yet when an opportunity presents itself i completely pussy out.

It's been around ten years, since I've known this girl. It's been about eight, since she went to live to the other side of the country, but we still chat regularly.
Always felt attracted to her, she's the intellectual-type after all, and over time I've made her like me too. Three days ago, being the introverted little virgin she is, she took some courage and send me nudes. The things is, I don't really feel anything by it except some sense of achivement like the one you'll get after running a marathon or reading a big book. On more local matters, a friend is eager to introduce me to this girl. "She really wants the D" he says, but I can't seem to be interested.

The very possibility of me being real is absurd. It is impossible to create filth this disfigured and deranged. If one holds that I do in fact exist in the material plane equals to claiming that mountains can sing and worms dance. The possibility of a life form this foul and disgusting is beyond any conception and so the only logical conclusion is that I in fact don't exist. All I ever did was taste poison seeping from every crevice of life, each day a new form of torture. Even my body feels alien. I don't feel like it is mine at all, I am thoroughly disgusted with each atom making up this bag of flesh. I have been in agony ever since I first opened my eyes.

Improve the country in which you live rather than seeking escape to another, which will in due time face the same problems as America. I do agree with you, though, that modernity has given us a serious architecture problem. I've been to Rome once, and the older parts of the city (read: the touristy parts) were absolutely beautiful. Now, comparing my experience of Rome to mine of New York, I've found that even the most beautiful sections of the latter can't compare to those of the former. God, imagine if every city inspired feelings of awe and happiness rather than disgust. Modernist "architecture" is a blight.

I yearn for a creative outlet but I'm not sure what. My heroes are Joyce, Borges, Proust, Kubrick, the Coen brothers, and various comedians. I'm getting very good at digital and social media marketing, I make a living doing it, I nerd out on it a lot, but I would like to do something more creative. And I want to be great at it, I want to move people, I want to create art. I've tried writing fiction on and off. All of my friends have told me at some point that I could do standup comedy/comedy writing, but I don't know if I am funny or they're just fucking stupid.

I've been alternating between Ulysses and In Search of Lost Time for 1.5 years now and have not finished either of them. Every time I start a different book I feel like it's not as good as Joyce/Proust and I get frustrated and put it down and try Joyce/Proust again. The only thing I read entirely through was Ficciones, Nichomachean Ethics and Madame Bovary. I've began and stopped in the middle of over 50 books in the last 2 years, always stopping to go back to Ulysses or ISOLT. The worst part is it completely goes over my head, and I have no literature education aside from 101 and 102 classes in college.

I've gained too many interests and I feel like I don't have enough time for all of them and it's becoming a big source of anxiety. Studying languages, reading fiction and philosophy and poetry, studying quantum physics, hiking, writing, composing music, learning to draw, going to the gym, photography.

I had a long rebuttal to some idiot but the thread got pruned, so this is on my mind:

>>11915752
My argument at that point was simply that the YouTuber doesn’t know what he’s talking about, not that Foucault directly contributed to the rise of identity politics. I’m not watching the video again because it was shit, but from what I recall the dude said something this:

“Jordon Peterson blames people like Derrida and Foucault, and postmodernism in general, for identity politics. But identity politics are an outgrowth of something called postcolonialism! Therefore, it has no relationship with postmodernism, and thus no relationship with people like Derrida and Foucault.”

My point is that postcolonialism definitely is a postmodernist paradigm, and moreover, it’s basic conceptual foundation is Foucaultian. So to act like people who see connections between these things are idiots is itself idiotic.

If people like Derrida and Foucault came up with conceptual paradigms based on radical constructivism, power dynamics, deconstruction, and were moreover in many ways anti-western and political activists, and then you have a bunch of people who build intellectual and political movements entirely off these conceptual foundations, completely in line with them in many ways, share their anti-western orientations, and become similarly politically active, it’s hard to avoid seeing a non-arbitrary connection.

If you read mein kampf and thought the some of the rhetoric was inspiring because of its power, and then reproduced some of this rhetorical power in your writing, that would be a bit of influence. If you memorized the text, started wearing an ss uniform, grew a hurler mustache, and starting giving speeches talking about founding a new Reich that would last a thousand years, I might be able to stop and say: “you know what, I think this guy is acting and thinking basically in line with what Hitler himself set in motion, and I think Hitler himself, the author of the book that got this guy to start shouting like this, is in some sense to blame.”

A little after the morning has set, when it would become embarrassing to sit in bed any longer, I leave my dorm for breakfast. If Lianne, the sweet Christian girl, is swiping cards at the front desk that morning, upon my entering the first floor, she will give a bright greeting that does not feel artificial at all. Though my expression is flat, and worn under a seemingly glum shroud, I do appreciate that sort of thing, honestly. So when she does it, I smile gently, and, in a low voice, tell her “yo”, and move out to catch the shuttle.

On the shuttle people talk if they know each other and they do not if they don’t. I think that’s normal, but one time, a student made fun of the fact, and suggested we ought to speak to one another, even if we’re strangers, because we’re all students here, and there’s no reason you should spend 10 minutes sitting across from someone and trying desperately to only meet eyes with their shoe. I believe in that spirit, but he felt too proud at having announced it, as if it were a sort of revelation. I don’t talk to anyone on the shuttle, I did once.

When I’m off the shuttle, I usually go to dunkin donuts for breakfast. I always say it’s some of the most decent fast food you can get. I usually get there after most people would have gone, but I prefer to get there when there is a lot of people there waiting for breakfast. It feels like I’m a part of a community when it’s like that. To even have the shared experience of wanting coffee and an english muffin is satisfying for me. I don’t like to go there when there’s only a couple people.

I hope I have not ruined my relationship with my girlfriend by cheating on her and lying to her. I would hate that, and I don’t know what will happen. Whatever Allah decrees I will accept, but I do hope he wills for us to be together and improve. I don’t think I would be able to say in confidence that I wouldn’t do it again if it happened maybe, last year or prior. I told that to my friend Ahmad, but, now, I feel differently. In my heart, I feel that Allah chose this time to reveal these things because I truly can be true to my word and improve, I have faith in that. But, it is incredibly reasonable for my girlfriend to feel otherwise, and, that is my fault. I don’t know what I’ll do without her, she is everything, one thousand meadows perennially blooming, a thunderstorm of honey and bird songs, and the thunder itself is only the plucking of an aeolian harp. I love her deeply, profoundly, and I have not proved it at all. No I have not proved it, nor do I deserve her grace or mercy, I know I don’t, and I don’t know if I deserve God’s but it doesn’t feel like I do, I think He just does that. What is it like to love her? At the bottom of an ocean, wading in bliss, the current of her charms, in which I only sink deeper. To bare the sun’s gleam, wide eyed, and to change your glance, only flushed with the white of the rays. I would like to burn my irises like coal with her love. But, I have been terrible and licentious and deceitful and corrupt. It’s not fair, and I am undeserving, ungrateful, selfish, yes. If she refuses me I may scream. Not at her, into something. I hope we can stay together and I can prove myself to her. I think the first song we declared as “our song” was “Song for Ariel” by Panda Bear, and the lyrics “I really want to show to my girl that I love her, and I do”, are very sharp right now. I wish I could play guitar and sing that to her but it would be very inappropriate and disrespectful. I wish I could do a lot of things for her but they would all fall into that category. Today I read a very beautiful story by Chekhov called “lady with the dog”, Allah willed it, because it was about two adulterous people finding love with one another in spite of their deceit and wickedness. I was expecting the story to end on a sad note, chastising their infidelity, but instead, it made it a pleasing romance, and I hated that. The story was very beautiful but it felt so surreal reading it, because it’s just not what I want, and not really what they wanted. They hated their secrecy and I hated mine, but, the difference is, they’re looking for a means to resolve it and be pleased with each other, and I wish to dissolve it, cut it with a scimitar, I don’t want to be wicked!

Iat least feels ok to write this, but I do feel dread, I do feel dread that she will leave me and I don’t know what I’ll do about it. There’s nothing you can really do, you’ve made your bed haven’t you?

The best thing you can do is to produce things creatively to fill your time, continue to put yourself out there, and try your best to mature your views on both platonic and romantic companionship.

Haha this is a funny response but thank you. We actually just spoke tonight and she said she'd give me another chance which I'm very grateful for. Also, we have the same God! There's only one God, He's just conceptualized differently by different religions. But as far as the Abrahamic goes, we have pretty similar conceptions, albeit yours has a heavier emphasis on things like Divine Love and the sort. We emphasize more so just following the sunnah (rules of Islam) and submitting to God completely.
