There are things that occasionally come and live in my mind¸
sometimes they stay for a while, sometimes forever, sometimes they leave. I'll just write them here.
A friend recommended me a great book a few years ago. I haven't finished reading it yet. I eat it bit by bit, when the times are difficult.
This book is The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. It's about being free and happy, from any sort of pain, addiction, burden. The secret is all in the title, but it sounds too easy like this. Well, the idea is as easy as the title. Anyways, I just thought i'd leave it here, along with some reflexions I've had.
Feelings go, habits come back. We are defined by our actions, and our actions by our habits. To become who we want to be, we must change our habits and let feelings be just feelings.
Thinking rationally and analysing complex subjects such as spirituality, habits, neural pathways and neuroplasticity have become a habit to you after what you consider a relapse or a failure. This is what kept you going this far, and you would not dare to think that it is a bad thing to have kept going. Now, you should not leave this be a habit that occurs after failure, because you would become dependant on failure to grow. Do you see the irony? Do not wait on failure to initiate growth, as you are always free to grow. Make it a habit to grow after a success, instead. Then, you will only keep growing like a flower that never ends to blossom. This is a kalpravishka. The tree that grants wishes is rooted in success, not failure.
You must practice peace to gain more peace

Being a man is no longer useful in our society; testosterone seeks your death. It protects us from danger and makes us more of a "survivor," from tougher skin to muted emotions. Everything it does is aimed at improving our survival. Testosterone assumes you will risk your life and adapts your body to that reality. Because of this, in our risk-free world, men find themselves ill-suited and, in a way, seeking the death they seem built to face. Life is less enjoyable, emotions are dulled, and they find meaning in their existence only by confronting danger and death. Thus, testosterone drives males toward death.
being transgender is thus a very intelligent move from a male organism i could bet that transgenderism is a trait of many intelligent people who adapt to their environment it is, after all, adaptation
