Why can't you just be normal? Why are you so obsessed with sadism and seeing other people suffer?

>>130203
Are you just refreshing the front page nonstop lol

I don't know what's appealing about it. It's not sadism necessarily. I think it's interesting to see the sensitive side of men they try to hide so much pretending to be so invincible and stuff.

It would be ridiculous to assume men and women could share so much dna and not be similar in many ways.

>>130205
Okay.

It also helps because men can never really surprise me with what they say because I've already heard it all. And It helps understanding what are their true motives behind what they say. It's very fun.

Are you a spiritual person?

>>130207
Maybe. I take interest in the scripture. I don't know if I believe really, but I want to learn and I do want to follow its wisdom, some of it at least.

I keep thinking about how actions speak louder than words. If I am willing to sacrifice more and more every time I learn, it would mean that I probably do believe. That's how I'll tell.

There are old paintings and other works of art depicting Jesus surrounded by the sun. It's said the sun is emblematic of his love. Always giving everything with nothing requested in return; in other words pure unconditional love. In that sense every non sentient object around us is love and when we die we will return to that pure state of love. There are schools of thought who say we can access this state of pure love even while still living through awakening to our true selves. I find these world views fascinating and they seem to connect lots of old world spirituality together

Well, that could tie back to this thread's topic too. I don't think seeing another one's suffering is necessarily sadistic. I think it could nurture empathy and love, too.

That's a pretty interesting paragraph you got here. I like it.

It is said to awaken to your true self is to realize you are not your thoughts or emotions. You exist independently from them in a state of pure awareness. You are the space between thoughts. You are the silent observer. This connection to consciousness is present in all of us and connects us as one.
