Two kinds of people.

They say there's two kinds of people. Optimists and pessimists or Idealists and realists. Picture life as an imaginary line that stretches to infinity. We cannot see the end, because it goes on forever, therefore we cannot see how it changes. It's very odd, but those who can see how it changes are called idealists or optimists and those who cannot and see it for what it is are called realists or pessimists. One thing you should understand is that we are so very limited in our vision, so that naturally means the way we see life, isn't all there is. The people who decide on purpose? They knew there was more than pointlessness. Even if they couldn't see it, they didn't have to. Seeing isn't believing to them, believing is seeing. One should never dismiss something simply because there's no evidence or proof. When each of us are so ignorant, what makes us think we have the right to decide what the world is? If we did that, then all of our advancements? They wouldn't have happened. The invention of electricity, the internet and global communication, the ability to capture moments of our lives in things we call pictures... The many wonders of our world! There was zero proof that our world as we know it could have existed even 500 years ago. No one knew. But these things didn't happen because someone said. "It's never happened, therefore it cannot be." They happened because people dared to imagine. They reached into the dark, the unknown to see what they could learn. None of them ever stopped at, "I know the way the world currently is. So that's all there is to it." They kept going to see what the world could be. To learn new things! I think that's what people need to do if they want to manage things like depression easier. They're lost in their dark past and miserable present. They shouldn't stop at what they know, they shouldn't stop period. They should continue at what there is to discover. The future full of so many possibilities that are all yours! Opportunity and potential are words anyone can claim. They're yours to take! It just starts with you, because it's you who can make these things happen.
There's proof. People just don't want to believe it. One could discuss till doomsday, but in the end, it's up to the individual.

Exactly. It's always up to the individual.
@Conscience: Yes indeed.
First of all., I love the way you think...reading further....upon careful reading, AND THE ACCEPTANCE' of the relatively recent change in education policies, I completely understand what you are saying. You should do it quick and concise with poetry. Do an acrostic on godammlibtardidiots.

Dude, great writing. This is why i got into self-help and astrology, because i believe there was more i could figure out about myself and others. We all have layers but we don't all feel open to those layers because of past hurt and trauma. Why show others our spark if they might use it against us? It can be overprotective to an extreme, though if it is all we know, we can either break out of that box one day, or grow stagnant in it, losing energy.

Thanks! There is a theory that describes how we can become comfortable with sadness, or general lethargy. It keeps us safe from the pain growing can bring. The problem is that if you don't grow, you'll never experience the better side of life.

Your welcome. And if we always go down the easy path, we never are able to transform into the people we are meant to be. Energetic souls.

@Conscience: I like this. What kind of conversations do you engage with your consciousnesses ?
SW-User
@TheLoveAge: Talk about anything and everything really, just life in general. Spend enough time with someone and you two just end up having conversations with no limitations.
