As in continuation...
So I was riding home, listen to my tunes, thinking about what my uncle had said to me. I dont really want to go into it but it got me thinking...
That, this book, and Adderal is mos def a strange combo, but anyways, lets get down to it.
I sorta came to the conclusion that if you dont acknoledge the ideas and opinions of people, they dont exist; as in they dont have any. And what doenst exist, pretty much by definion cant affect you in anyway. Positive or negative. And once the opinions and thoughts are out of the way, you are free to set your own standerds that apply only to yourself. [lets see where this is going...]
Not only that but something that happened today got me applying my theory. If some dude believes in god. By saying there is no God, you acknoledge his Gos's realness because you've acknoledged his faith, weather you like it or not. What makes things real is not that they are physical but though being expierenced cuz there is nothing until it is expirenced. But by denying his expirence he has nothing. His belief/faith though his expirence is his only connection to whats abstract to the all else, get what Im saying?...I didnt really notice how the opinions of people that ive never met and im not sure exist affect me until now.
Its sorta like, I cant be tacky until I accept that you say I am. Its almost like, without the opinions of anyone else you can be virtually anything...there is no tacky, no beautiful, no best and no worst except that which for you decide yourself. Just people and the garbage that people creat to compete against themselves cuz people cant be equal. Thats what I think, and I dont believe that they should be. So if people are not equal, who ands what decides the better and the worst? I couldnt answer that question, it had to be everybody or nobody. so I figured that I should. I decide how to judge my reality, and you do the same for you.
Simply because I cant see the world through your eyes, I cant process the truth of the world the way you would so how could I possibly tell you anything about the way you experience life? My aunt said, "We could live the exact same lives and turn out everyway but the same." It makes sense cuz every consciousness is different so everything that I see and know about the world isnt what you know. On the same planet, my world and your world are not the same thing. Okay, Im confusing myself...lets try agian here.
What Im talking about is sorta ..a way for you to perfect the world but only the world you inhabit because you can know no other world just as you cant be another person. This doenst apply to physical things as they are in reality because they exist in a demision other than your mind, the universe pretty much. Its physical properties are the same to all people who come incontact with it but as soon as you think about it, it is distorted by your brain. The brain is a more like a fun house mirror than a filter. Its changes reality into what you expirence.
Im not saying, be ingorant of people and everything but Ive kinda realized, you cant talk about being happy in terms of people and you definetly cant act that way. I scarcely remember anytime that Ive felt bad or inadiquit purely on my own accord. It was the expressed opinion of someone else and my acceptance of it that did it. You know, I cant be stupid unless I believe youre smart. Its impossible to be lame unless someone is cool and vise versa. I guess in short, deny that there is a standard and you cant fit into the spectrum soley because isnt one. Then, I guess, youre one step closer to being happy.
Well...that was my stab at philosophy, the product of my boredum and medication.
I dont think this makes sense to anyone but then again, isnt that the point? although it is equally possible that Im out of my mind.
