Toi La Toi




Carl Jung once said that loneliness doesn't come from having no one around you, but from being unable to communicate the things that are important to you. Keanu Reeves also said something that relates with me, he said that "I always felt like I'm not from this generation I just live in it. Because the way my mindset differs from the majority, you'd think I come from a different dimension. That's why I keep things to myself because a lot of people won't understand me.". Jorge Luis Borges said that "I'm not sure that I exist actually. I'm all the writers that I have read, all the people that I have meet, all the women that I have loved, all the cities I have visited.".

I am a laid back person with a ton of anxiety. I spend a great deal of time inside my mind, dream up a better world. I often compare myself with the better version of me, it caused me to think very little about me sometimes. I am a person who constantly looking to find a balance between not being cold because I am  "shut down" and not being too emotional because I am "open up". I love routine until I'm bored, then I love excitement until I'm overwhelmed, then I love routine. I will go from extreme drainage to time-bomb explosions, from deep focus to total chaos, from feeling everything to feeling nothing, it's all within me every day, every minute.

I will understand you, forgive you, and give you the benefit of the doubt until I get to the point where it's not that I don't care anymore but I just can't. I don't like being an inconvenience to strangers or creating ruckus in public. I walk faster so as to not hold up pedestrians behind me, I make sure that I don't splash people whilst driving in the rain, taking money beforehand to pay, I'm always looking out for other people even when they don't do so themselves. I see helping people as my purpose in life, however, my real passion is to get to the heart of the issue so that people are need not be rescued at all.

I also have a habit googling unknown phone numbers that call me before answering or calling them back. People often called me smart because I have a variety of information on different subjects but in reality, it's all surface-level intelligence and I don't feel like I really good at anything

Smile

How to Win Friends and Influence People Dale Carnegie It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.  It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature´s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.  And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying someone should be too tired to give you a smile, maybe we can leave one of ours for them. For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to  give !  give ! https://www.thesun.co.uk/living/23...

The Gateway to All Understanding

The tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao The name that can be named is not the eternal Name. The unnamable is the eternally real. Naming is the origin of all particular things. Free from desire, you realize the mystery. Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations. Yet mystery and manifestations arise from the same source. This source is called darkness. Darkness within darkness. The gateway to all understanding. Tao The Ching Chapter 1

Entitlement

People say our young generation is entitled, it is a good topic to joke about for the stand-up comedians. Entitled is believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. I believe this is not owned by the young generation only, every generation has it, every one of us has it to some degree. This is a problem we have in society in any age, in any countries in this world. I remember when I was a kid, at night during the hot season our house was filled with mosquitos, and dengue fever are quite common in our country.  I can't remember whether I and my sister ever whined about it but I always remember the fact that my mother often stayed up late holding the insects killer racket just to defended us from the mosquitoes. However, My entitlement behaviour took the bad on me, I thought she ought to do that one because she is our mother, it's her duties to protect us. I did not really care how many hours she has spent at our room every night, or whethe...
