Is anyone truly happy?

I’m starting to wonder if anyone is truly happy. I don’t know any truly happy person. I know a lot of people that pretend but when we have one on ones and soul sessions they admit they are not happy. Just makes me wonder what’s the point of living. What did I sign up for? What’s the purpose of this all?

I'll be happy when I'm dead.

Happiest I was in months was when I thought I was dying.
How comes? @GeistInTheMachine

@NattybyNeter Because I actively have a death wish but I have spiritual reasons against suicide so I am at an impasse.
Do you believe in reincarnation? @GeistInTheMachine

@NattybyNeter Oh God no. To me that is Hell, and would be Hell. I never want to come back to this evil world full of degenerate awful people.

I don't understand why people love reincarnation so much.

Seems evil and of the Flesh to me.

I don't want to be a meatsack again!
I don’t want to come back but I do believe in reincarnation and you ever stop to think maybe you think that’s the true definition of hell because you are not enjoying your first trip here? Assuming it’s your first @GeistInTheMachine

@NattybyNeter Ugh. I've thought about it too much since I was a kid.

I'm pretty loathe to talk about it much.

I fear reincarnation more than death.

Why do you believe in it? New Age?
Not new age at all. The new age people them annoy me. There’s nothing new age about deep thinking and consciousness. Anyways, I believe in it for several reasons. The main one is because it makes more sense to me from a scientific explanation. If everything is energy and vibrates. The law says energy never dies. It transforms as well as I’ve met people that just seem to be wise beyond their years and it has nothing to do with their experiences only. And a lot of other stuff that u feel I can’t type here without ppl thinking I’m a complete nut job. @GeistInTheMachine

@NattybyNeter I agree with some of the esoteric vibration/energy stuff, but I think that does not prove or mandate reincarnation.

If anything, all that energy and conciousness crap I think points to a loving God, and I don't see why he would have us looping lifetimes to pay off karma we can't really pay anyway.

And for what? To be extinguished in the end in Nirvana?

You can have spiritual pre existence without reincarnation. some christians believe in that.

Anyway, whaTever the real answer is, is nuanced and complicated I am sure.

From my spiritual experience I do not buy into reincarnation in part because it conflicts with my experience of God, but you do you.

Be well and God bless.
We will never have all the answers and I am okay with that because I wouldn’t want to drive myself crazy trying to figure things out. I guess humans come up with all kinds of things when we want answers as well because I always wonder why innocent kids would be born with aids or an innocent baby getting abused unless they weren’t that innocent but again just humans coming up with answers. Be well 🎈 @GeistInTheMachine

@NattybyNeter The are innocent. They were just born in a bad world full of devils.
I can’t speak with such surety because I don’t know that but if you do that’s cool too. I hope you find some peace. My perception of the world is not so dreadful @GeistInTheMachine

@NattybyNeter That's one of my issues with some elements of eastern philosophy. Moral relativism.

I literally hate people and want humanity to die out, but even I can say little ones are innocent.
