Because it is the people who are supposed to love us and care for us that betrayed us the most. What chance does a stranger have?
SW-User
@SW-User Now that's sad when most of the world is strangers to each other.

Everyone you know was a stranger in start. With the advent of SOCIETY it was believed that world was not just one cast or creed, but amalgam of many. Its rage of few that has drained humanity from human@SW-User
SW-User
@SW-User But isn't it the truth? Reality is not sad. It is just what it is.
SW-User
@SW-User In a way, what we accept and how we accept that is likely more harmful.
SW-User
@Mystical I think we're talking cross purposes. There is a philosophy and then there is a reality with real feelings and pain and all that. Philosophy is great in text and kudos to those who achieve that level of wisdom. For most of us, its a struggle, and we just strive our best.
SW-User
@SW-User Well my quota for false hopes and idealism is almost done. And it wasn't really all that helpful to me in the end. :)
Thank you. But I do not have more to say on this.
SW-User
@SW-User You strike me as not that old, but mature, how do you feel those elder make it through life?
SW-User
@SW-User Maturity comes with experience, not age. Everyone makes it through life. I do not know how everyone really feels inside though do I? We all wear masks.
SW-User
@SW-User Yes, and when I brought about age it really was I don't see your age here. Experience equals maturity, I'm not entirely sure, but it does give helpings in how one is supposed to deal with life, love and all things attached.
SW-User
@SW-User There is no 'supposed to'. We are dealt with some cards, and we play the best we can.
I am not that old. Far younger than you. But that means nothing. Some people have lived more lives in a short time than some do in a lifetime.
SW-User
@SW-User Yes, and I did anticipate you would bring up the wording of 'supposed' when really it was a quick short form way to express something.
SW-User
@SW-User I'm not a mind reader to know which words you use loosely and which you use with definition.
And this discussion is no longer the topic it was meant to be, and thats my cue to end it.x

Philosophy is the birth of an idea. The very ground of society is philosophy. An idea that was turned in reality.it is not act of one but of many believers.@SW-User
SW-User
@Mystical Yes it is. And it is a hard strive to achieve. We work towards it, sure. But it is not something that is the be all and end all of most people. Most people struggle with the in betweens. To diminish the way someone feels with a philosophical ideal is also not that great.
SW-User
@SW-User Okay. I didn't ask you to be a mind reader. To me it's on topic somehow you just don't like where it morphed.
SW-User
@SW-User No I do not like it when it morphs into what seems like personal nitpicking and off general discussion. 🤷‍♀️

As i said we are all humans streamlined with different believes. We see world with different glasses, we read books with different understandings. Yet we live together with a hope. Act of few is not act of every. What some do is not what world does. @SW-User
SW-User
@Mystical No, its not what the world does. But it instills a defense mechanism in us that keeps the world out. Because when it all comes down to it, we're driven by an instinct to survive. And that includes survival of pain.
SW-User
@SW-User Have your opinion, that's fine. Funny attribute of that, that does play very much into how society plays out economically and culturally. And yes - the world can be a callous place structured very much around how people distrust another.

I believe wall doesnt only stop outside world to come in it also stop you to mix with world. A wall is always a barrier but then past has also shown the need of it.its the paradox ans we are just muted spectators @SW-User
SW-User
@Mystical We have to go through the motions of what our experiences teach us. When we sabotage ourselves, that also teaches us lessons. We keep morphing. And some of us will grow with it.
Mystical · 31-35, M
We all evolve, in all new way.@SW-User
SW-User
@SW-User Which is some of what I was saying... Wasn't able to sum it up quickly.
SW-User
@Mystical Exactly. Thats why I believe as good as philosophies are, its guidelines. Not the rule. People find themselves in all positions in that journey, and none of that is irrelevant or dismissive.
And a lot of people do not know how to come out of that churn. A lot of people will focus on the negativity. For all the education we're given, we're never taught how to deal with realities of life.
And therein will start the mass mistrust of every person around them. And it is strengthened by daily deceptions and frustrations people will find on low scales.

True. What we need is grown understanding of life in true essence. We need our world to be more logical than more theoretical @SW-User
