  • I have anxiety disorder - I'm also highly sensitive to things. It sucks. But I often reach a place of absurdity. Where I feel so much of everything else that I cease to matter. And in an odd way it's peaceful. I matter to the people in my life but that is fleeting because they are fleeting. When you step to the edge of the void, sometimes it's fun just to dance.

  • My mother passed away just five days ago. I found out via phone call with my step-father. I had just been with her two hours prior. I had hugged her, told her I loved her, and headed to my college campus, completely unaware that was the last time I would ever see her alive. All I can say at this point is that life goes on and my world and its struggles are wholly different from another's- something I find somewhat beautiful. No matter how absolutely devastating my life may be, people still laugh, people still smile, people still live, perhaps entirely unaware of the acute pain I experience. I have found comfort and solace in this idea. As well, I've acquired a newly-compounded sense of consideration for others. I can never know what others are experiencing, so I tread lightly, keeping in mind the pain I go through now and the potential pain another may be going through that I could never truly know. Life is so strange and beautiful. Hug each other, love each other. We can never really be sure what may happen next.

Then the inevitable happens again - change. Nothing can last forever in a lifetime of change. Even suffering is tempered by change. Joy is a moment of not-sadness. Change can only free you from the present Now. ❤

  • Hi Robert! Amazing video as always! I was wondering if I could give you a suggestion. I have a friend who introduced me to your channel (she's been a subscriber for almost four years now) and she's been interested in Philosophy her whole life. She hasn't taken classes or gone to college to study because she is deaf, and unfortunately, the places she could go to attend classes have a huge delay in providing a sign language interpreter. Because of that, she relies on KZhead and books to satisfy her curiosity for knowledge and keep learning. That's why I was wondering if you could provide subtitles for your videos (because the KZhead-generated ones are quite difficult for her to understand most of the time). You could even have them on your website. Please don't take this the wrong way; it's just an idea. Once again, we thank you for your videos and the quality of your content! I hope you have an amazing weekend!

  • I think an underrated response to anxiety, is the act of courage as delineated in “Courage to Be”, a short book by the German existentialist theologian, Paul Tillich. Stoicism tells us to, essentially, have faith in the “laws of nature”. Tillich would say to summon courage in the face of meaninglessness. Nietzsche’s message was the same, “He has heart who knows fear, but vanquishes it; who sees the abyss, but with pride. He who sees the abyss, but with eagle's eyes,- he who with eagle's talons grasps the abyss: he has courage.”.

So intellectually I may hear wise words or good advice, however it doesn’t filter through to me whilst depressed, it’s understood but not felt. Feeling something so it really hits is different then just hearing wise words. It’s a knowing of the words that matters, it’s also an acceptance of self that I’m looking for too

  • In addition to controlling the way we interpret and respond to our experience, we can also control what we pay attention to. This is huge but we usually act like robots on autopilot. Those are the only 3 things we can control but we have to do it on purpose in order to make use of this purpose - Free will is an action. If you aren't really present, you have effectively no free will. I like the concept of anti-fragility or actually profiting from untoward events as opposed to resilience and robustness. Nice graphics.

  • Imagine a world. In this imagined world, upon reaching a certain age, individuals are presented with a profound choice: to evaluate the worth of their lives and decide whether to continue existing or to opt for non-existence. Our existence isn't a result of our own conscious decisions, but rather the outcome of our parents' actions, driven by their primal instincts. We are brought into this world not by our own volition, but by the desires of our progenitors. The truth is, we lack agency in our own creation; we cannot choose to exist before birth, and once born, the option to choose is no longer available. I believe that if we are not given the autonomy to choose our existence, we should, at the very least, have the fundamental right to choose our non-existence. This should be regarded as a basic human right, honoring our desire to escape the inevitable tragedies of life. Considering the possibility of infinite universes, it stands to reason that in at least one of them, governments would recognize and uphold this right for every individual. Unfortunately, we find ourselves in a reality where such recognition is absent. In the face of perpetual sorrow, could it not be seen as an act of mercy to grant us the freedom to depart peacefully?

But plenty of people were convicted or acquitted before they understood how to use DNA evidence. One thing which is hard to argue with is the behavior of the disciples, and hundreds if not thousands of other disciples whose names we do not know. They certainly believed that Jesus had been resurrected. They were glad to die martyrs' deaths because they did believe it.

I watch wildlife run in fear as their habitats disappear, I watch as pets are set free or sent to shelters as their owners become homeless or die, I watch the oceans and their habitats decay, ... I was secure at one time, but broken promises, theft, and lies took everything from me. All life suffers like tears in the rain.

  • I know all of this. So do you and everyone else. There isn't anything new in world that hasn't already been said in some old book or script. Yet we still struggle. I know all of this and yet I struggle with not worrying about things I can't control. I am a private school teacher and my school is getting sold and it'll be demolished. I'm about to become unemployed in 3 months. The landlord called yesterday and he says he'll raise the rent by 300% or we get evicted. I'm gonna take an exam to get into a government school in my country but the 3 stage exam is in june and august and god knows when the results will come and I don't even know whether I'll get into a gov school or not. If I do, I'll have to move once again into another city. Everything is utterly a mistery and that's the cause of my misery. All of this unknown is making me paralyzed. I don't know what course of action I should be taking. Today I had a great dinner with my mom. I wanted to enjoy it despite everything. I looked at her and hugged her, thinking no matter what happens I just love her and it's ok. I know nothing's worse than losing someone you love and I try to live knowing that, but still it doesn't make those facts I listed go away. I'm still struggling financially and I have to support her, I have to find another job probably, have to find a house during economic crisis and no matter what job I find, it'll not be enough to pay both the rent and bills. I still have to take that test for a better position but I can't even collect my mind to study among all this.
