Subtle Simplifications of Somber Sentiments

I don’t trust anyone anymore. These past 3 years have stripped away all the faith in people I had left.
And now I know for certain that there’s not one person on this entire planet that understands me or is willing to try and make sense of the shit in my head.

So I’ll keep doing the CBT’s and the Shadow Work for my own benefits. I won’t ever look outside myself again for anything or anyone.

Everything of my present is just a continuation of the life God handed me. I can keep on trying to do what I think is right for reasons I think are right, but as has been proven over a thousand times, I am not entirely enough of anything for anyone in any way.
It’s a hard realization.
It hurts.

But the world spins onward and everyone makes their ways forward. Including myself as life drags me through these endless mud pits and along all these unlighted roads.
I don’t blame anyone for any of it. I just know where I stand inside of it all.
And that’s alone.

Truly a man without a single person he can call his own. With nothing left to hope for save the success of his grandchildren.
And even they at some point will look at me and feel let down by my efforts. Just like every soul that’s come before them and found themselves in my presence.

I type these words in all my useless Anxious Attachment. Knowing that I type to an Avoidant. Knowing that what I’m seeking is some type of validation that I probably can’t accept.
But fuck me if I ain’t ever felt more alone or unworthy in my entire existence….

The world spins off its axis and I can see it. But nobody sees what I see the way I see it.
I finally understand the true depth of it all and the curse of my love and what that does to others.
I finally understand that it has and will always be my fault for being the person I am and that it is my fault for not keeping to myself sooner and saving everyone else from the effects of me.

I prepare myself for a life that winds its way to a place of nothing as it travels down a dimly lit pathway of solitude.
This is what is what.

In Japanese thought, there’s an idea that not being fully understood will always be a part of being human. Even people who love each other deeply only ever meet in fragments. Not because one of them failed, because no mind can fully contain another.

'being alone’ is not a verdict on worth. It is likely the natural distance that exists between all people, including the ones who care, but exacerbated by the fading of community links in an ever self-driven world.

Things don’t have to be complete to have meaning. A broken cup is still used. An unfinished path is still walked. Your way of loving, even if it’s too much for your world just means it won’t fit everywhere. The many ways this world is broken is also meaningful.

It is never right to force hope even upon oneself. But one also doesn’t have to turn moments into a life sentence. Feel your feelings , all of them. All of them are true but none forever.

@Miram Not to be forward or off putting, but I have found you to be an intelligent poster and commenter..
SW isn't always known for the intellect of its users but in you I see a depth and a sense of understanding that is rare here.

Keep being you because you're super cool and intriguing.

Be well
Live happy
Keep trying,
Rob

PS~ I read the other post 2 more times. I have nothing intelligent to say about the millions of scattered thoughts I had on it.

@HikingMan No worries, you're absolutely not obligated to respond to those sorts of posts. I appreciate you reading them and I wish to read more from you too in the future.

Your love is enough, as it is.

I used to post far more sophisticated writings. Today much of what I say here is my silly side acting out. While I value my mind so very much and I know to count it as a privilege, well aware we humans aren't traded the same cards in life, I also wish I have consistently invested my own blessings in good things...I didn't .

I needed the time, the mistakes and the guilt. And if it weren't for love, love in general, I might have been another nightmare to you and to the rest of the world.

Life is strange 🤗 but we have a say in our story. And that's good.
