Poem <3
And I received difficulties to make me stronger
I asked for wisdom
and I got problems to solve
I asked for prosperity
and I got brains, the intellect, to work
I asked for courage
and I got obstacles to overcome ...
I asked for love
and I got people with problems on my path, which I could help
I asked for favors
and opportunities I received
"I got nothing I wanted", but "received everything I needed"

-Anything is possible if you try hard enough-
Same is true, especially when inception is applied. I particularly hate how they have to modify how the "rules" are after an amount of time, and even before so, the fact that apparently we are the ones, the species that has to have the knowledge and the eligibility to know such, are among the highest ranks of the food chain, giving a fear of ourselves. That fear turns to the hopes of a father figure, that higher power, that will discipline the ones that are corrupt in due time. It's a longing factor that applies the same to someone who wishes to love another but has yet to find them, looking in every small detail that comes across their day.
I just hate how people become asphyxiated on the concept because it seems like the only hope they have left is just so true, it apparently overpowers ANYONE ELSE'S beliefs, and if not, then it only shows that it's almost as if a last resort thought they want to remain lingering to others to keep hysteria from happening.
The fear of death. The fear of the afterlife.

In a small sidenote, I will have an accidental tendancy to mock religion, considering I am [ supposedly ] a "modern philosopher", being as I might trial and error my thoughts upon the world, but in which case it benefits my intellectuality within reality and the divine concepts.
The ball is in your court, you just need to decide how to hit it.
:Y
That logic sounds kinda self-centered.
I prefer the whole "Invite death, he's a nice guy." approach. If you think about it, the world is perfect, so why would you want to live forever in a perfect world? It gets pretty boring, being interesting all the time.
I've forgotten, I've reminded you of the whole Paradox situation I live in.
In "normal people" it's usually Interest -> Priority -> Influence [ -> Interest ].
Influence increases speed of learning, not interest. Interest just finds starting points, or keys to start the learning.
I on the other hand find everything fascinating, so there is no point to me learning one over the other. That is where I have to figure Priority into account, on what is essential to what I am now. Then whatever I dont understand I'm interested in knowing why I don't, and then it puzzles back from there.
My name doesn't matter, as it's just a title, in my mind anyway. Age is 16, almost 17 in a couple of weeks.
In Science, its more applied. in Philosophy and Psychology, its more variational. In English, its pretty symbolic.
If I'm not interested in math as much as or even moreso than my other interests, there's no point in learning anything else.
At least, in my view. If I don't understand math as it is regularly, how can I apply it commonly as knowledge to any other particular concept or scheme of subject?
Couldn't understand at all what we were doing in math class.
Makes my brain question why it can handle philosophy and psychology with ease, and yet math, where I find it easier to craft building blocks, turned my brain into a shzpile.
