       Thanks.
       Also like i undug how we interact with the world directly, its
       not via thoughts and feelings, it only seems that way. Thoughts
       and emotions are not mirrors or results of interpreting reality,
       they exist side by side it. So if the wrold is perceived as
       fucked up or weird or just you know dreamy and not really
       coherent, why would thoughts and emotions have to be? Because
       they're mine, because they are me? Yeah right. We interact with
       the world directly, not indirectly. I see into the world, but
       sometimes it feels as tho I might keep my eyes closed , its
       really the same.
       But basically what i was going for is this, why would it be that
       the world is allowed to be percedived as shitty or bad or wrong
       sometimes , but thoughts and emotions cannot? Why would they
       have to be held up to some higher standard? There is obivously
       no standard. WHy cant emotions and thoughts also just be, but I
       guess where would we complain then, you can use emotions and
       thoughts to make up for the world, but where would I make up for
       the thoughts and emotions? Nowhere, just nowhere. It is all what
       it is,its all a big "because". I know nothing about anything
       even when im looking straight at it.

       Dear F:
       Why, why, why, why,  why.  Stupidest word in the English
       language. What would  be the point  of knowing 'why'.
       I will tell you, before hearing your answer, because I know the
       truth of the is issue. There is only one point, to prove
       yourself right, better or smarter and some one else or this,
       wrong, lesser or stupid. That's is, absolutely all there is to
       'why'. So why the hell would you ever ask it again, ever.
       You see, I just used it to  make myself smarter than you.  Now
       that's pretty stupid in my world. There are things you are
       smarter at than me and visa-vera. If you are smart you will
       start asking smarter questions and get out of  your egoic 'why'
       rut.
       If you ask 'how' about things you may get an answer that will
       lead to something else. How did I burn my finger. Hmmm.. I put
       my hand on the hot stove. Well, I don't think I don't think I'll
       do that again.
       Or, why did I burn my finger. Cause I was stupid, didn't pay
       attention, was a complete idiot, a moron. Yes, you may be, but
       it doesn't help much with your burnt finger syndrome does it.
       Never, ever, ever, ask why again or I will compel a thousand
       camels to  piss in your tent and it won't be pretty, trust me. I
       will also make you wander the desert alone for an eternity
       without water. Why would I do these things... because...
       Love ya, Jed.
       P.S. You think I'm joking... just try me.

       My life really consists of a couple relationships which have
       been intensifiying with fight every couple of days. Im sometimes
       wrecked with fear of separation and abandonment and being alone
       and WHYY does it all have to be this way, and sometimes im
       strangely calm. I have no real desire or wish to get out of
       them, and the thought that comes to mind is to just let it and
       see what happens. Im kinda seeing how its almost impossible to
       understand each other and the only thing that glues together is
       that i dunno lovey dovey feeling that exists for everything in
       particular. The thing that leads to a fight, which is
       misunderstanding , or lies, never leads out of them. There is no
       thinking out of a fight.
       Ive been thinking of leaving them, but leaving something just
       because its bad seems kinda seethrough, im not chasing rainbows,
       also I have no real drive to seek any kind of relief or escape
       or find something better or anything along side concepts like
       that.
       Also apparent is how I cant really help anyone or give advice to
       anyone cause i have no idea what are they talking about or i
       just find their situation ridiculous , and i know theyre gonna
       change their mood and their opinion next morning or the moon
       phase or whatever, not that im that aloof and cool even half the
       time but its somthing like that. Its really really hard to just
       be the space for people to be in without giving some kind of
       dumb pointless input, its not even really giving, the words just
       fly out of my mouth before i get the idea to stop them.
       Thoughts? What to do when people lie to you? When people refuse
       to say that lies arent truth? What to do when people show no
       real desire or effort to understand but they wont openly say
       that they dont love you or maybe even like you?
       I feel like i am 5 years old, I have absolutely no idea how to
       behave. Should I just lie too, I prolly have been doing it
       already.

       Sometimes when i wake up from a nap ill fear intense fear and
       being lost, and like i look at things but they dont get me that
       "home" feeling, like i cant ping off of the environment
       sometimes. What came to mind in autolysys is "maybe i cant
       remember that i dont have to think something bad will hapen" and
       similar word plays like that.
       Also I seem sometimes unable to feel like my memories are
       correct, like I do "remember", thoughts arise but it doesnt feel
       like anything special to me, like memory thoughts dont really
       pass of as something special flashy with a memory function
       designation and a "memory" id card, its like theyre stripped and
       are just thoughts now. Sometimes what comes to mind is asking
       someone if we really did share that moment last night or lunch
       or whatever, I am not sure any more. But I dont do that.
       Also I have trouble with the whole C-rex thing. When I first
       read it the same day I had like a noticeable shift in my living
       experience, but it soon wandered off, the punch weakened. So I
       started to dig it recently and what I can get to is that C-rex
       was viable as long as I thought it was like a conciousness in my
       head, like im that mutant Cyclops and the red beam he shoots of
       is the world i am seeing and the beam is conciousness, like
       literally the world is in my head but how can it be conciousness
       is in my head when my head is also just in conciousness and i am
       in conciousness , body thoughts feelings, this sense of me is in
       conciosness BUT STILL I am the one being concious of
       conciousness so something stinks there. I know i am concious of
       stuff, like on a thinking basis but it doesnt feel like that. It
       does not feel like stuff exists only because i am concious of it
       or aware of it. It does not feel like im the one aware of
       awareness or that i am awareness or that i could be awareness,
       but its gotta be something because I am aware.
       Or its just that I feel im the sense of self, thoughts body
       feelings is the problem and really Im the awareness awareness.
       But it does not translate into my living experience. A lot of
       this seems to relate to killing how i think i know and
       underneath that i feel like i know and not just think it, and
       then i see that i really only do think i know and i dont know
       and then the doubt is viscerasl and uncomfortable but there is
       no going back.
       Maybe there is a better word for this "aware of" lingo, maybe i
       should stop playing games.

       Deleted last post. No no no. I feel like I cant say anything
       true to you. I dont understand my own words , i dont understand
       my questions. They all seem so different once on screen, and I
       walways want to write more and different ,a and more and
       different and less and different. Im never satisfied with what I
       write to you here, it all seems so fake. My concerns are so
       shitty, cant allow what is, cant bring myself to accept what i
       see, cant bring myself not to be concerned with what cant be
       changed by me, cant bring myself not to be concerned with people
       that dont really ask for my concern.
       I feel torn in million directions and i feel like can only go
       nowhere. Its groundhog day for all of use. So why am i
       concerned? Obviously im lying to myself. I cant even be honest
       with myself. I thought i was focused but i see how i cant focus
       myself. The emotions dance all around, and are always
       threatening me with crap. How do I stop being a hostage? I just
       want to have one honest question or a remark, whatever, just for
       once. I do not want to doubt all of me every day of the week, I
       cant even do this right, I cant do anything right. No , not
       right, its more like properly, honestly. I cant do anything with
       my full weight behind it. im always squirming and not commiting
       fully. WITH everything
       How do I stop the confusion?

       I dont know who is the one confused. Its not me. I think its all
       the bodies baggage anyway, like thoughts , memories, feeling,
       what the fuck ever, its all body's. Identification is the
       problem. I am like a camera glued on to, but not just sight,
       like i get every feed, everything that goes on with the body i
       am aware of. I am that awareness.
       its just hard to admit how badly my "neighbor" ( calling it like
       that because its the closest body to the FoV, or the biggest)
       feels, the stuff it goes through, but i get how there is no
       person in the body. The body with all the sensory crap and the
       ranting in the form of emotions and thinking, the loops it gets
       into, the traps that set it off, how much energy, trapped energy
       is there. Its hard to admit its you at first and then its even
       harder, its almost impossible to admit its NOT me. None of it is
       me.
       How long do you get accustomed to all of this, to allow yourself
       to see everything as it is, i dont even really get why does it
       affect the body but it somehow does , but trying to understand
       it seems like a trap. You cant do anything about it anyway.
       There are no mechanisms, no levers, no buttons, no plugs, no
       cogs, no wheel...
