About Me
I am a human being. Like you. <3
General Philosophy in Life
I live life magnanimously, that is, generously forgiving of others. I used to be an angry, hate-filled bitter person. I made a decision not to be. Now, like anyone, I can still be angry with people, and even greatly dislike them, but I forgive them. Holding a grudge and just staying mad doesn't hurt anyone but me. Like that awesome dude Buddha said:
| Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned. |
|---|
So, I forgive others. Everyone is a deeply flawed human just like me, after all, so why hold it against another person when I may have made the same mistake in their shoes? Some people I can't forgive, sometimes, I don't even want to, though I'd at least like the ability to let go in some way. My rapist, for instance, can go to hell for all I care.
When I pray at night, I pray for those I know, love and care for, but I also pray for the well being of my enemies, whoever they might be.
All this said, there are people I just plain don't like. In my years in life and even in CoH, I have met a whole lot of people. I have impressed myself upon them for good or ill. I'm a rapid cycling bipolar, and it's not always easy for me to control my emotions. I experience emotions on a daily basis more powerful and intense than most people ever feel in their lives. I don't, therefore, understand like and dislike as other people do. I used to think I did, but I realized I really only know the extremes, love and hate.
Anyways, what I'm trying to say is that I've been an absolutely wonderful person to many, but I've pissed off my fair share of people as well. I deeply regret that. Occasionally though, someone will outright wrong me. I forgive these people, but I'm not in any way obligated to like them or let myself get stepped on. If you know me, and I inexplicably stopped talking to you, guess what?
Unless I deem you a sociopath however (someone incapable of bonding with other people on an emotional level, or even seeing them as people), I'm big on second chances. I always prefer to kiss and make up and be friends than have people whom I am at odds with, or worse yet, I'm enemies with. The word enemy has a lot of weight behind it though, it isn't just someone you think sucks, it's someone you genuinely despise for some immense wrong. Because of this I don't us the term lightly, and there are a whole two people in the world I consider my enemies.
As I like to say though, Love Others!
Here's something else to chew on:
| Love is a feeling. Love is an attitude. Love is an action. Love is a choice. To live magnanimously and love others is to live well. Forgive others their flaws and accept them as human beings, for you are also flawed. To love and appreciate others, to show empathy and compassion, is to live well. |
|---|
Remember. Love isn't just a warm emotion you feel for friends, family, and significant others. Love is an attitude and a choice, it's a decision to be kind to others, to show people through your actions that they don't have to be bitter and hate life, that there's happiness and contentment out there... but it's a choice. A decision must be made. If you spend your entire life waiting for happiness to find you, you'll be truly lucky indeed to find yourself happy.
I love you all! <3
