can't find a plug for my zip drive to work on my book, the angelikin.
The amount of talent in this world is actually quite amazing. I'm just not one of them. The experience is humbling and scary to say the least. going over myself in the past, what's clear is that I've spent way, way too much time playing video games, but also that I need to be more emotionally stoic, as well as just I dunno, less crazy in general, and that is still a hurdle.
some authors like Aaron Beck of "Feeling Good", emphasize the cognitive behavioral aspect of things. I don't think they really factor in the poverty though or the fact that you know, maybe there are things in your life that . you can't always just magically make yourself feel better honestly through magical thoughts.
Trying to escape through reading hasn't helped either. I think writing here is probably a better cope but I'm still homeless and on the bottom here.
I often consider my position in life to be judgement of god, but that's not exactly the truth, it's a reflection of my abilities to meaningfully contribute to the global economy and I am not an all star contributor. I'm not even a security guard level contributor which shouldn't be too too hard to achieve.
I still fear hell a lot though. I have no idea how old my soul is, whether I'm a new soul or a young soul, whether I've gone to hell in the past or not or heaven or whatever it is, but I do know that I'm not operating at a high level here and I've hurt a lot of the people close to me. I'm extremely emotionally upset and clearly I need to find ways and means of dealing with extreme emotions that are healthier because I experience them a lot. Deep breathing might help.
I know that drugs, alcohol, idolatry and other such things will not help of course, but I still spend too much time each day just sitting around basically. I continue to be impressed by all the talent in the world and I wish I had that level of talent, especially to build things like houses or to program things or make beautiful things but I don't.
A good human is creative and business minded as well as technically skilled. when you put the 3 together you can come up with some really amazing things. Even though things aren't the way I think they should be, since they are this way they are for reasons.
I'm supposed to be working but work has almost become like this abstract thing for me disconnected from any actual skills which is probably why I'm not getting hired. unless the job is like sitting around or something or building widgets in a factory I might not be able to do it, especially since with say, I dunno, semiconductors we shall say that requires a lot of technical skills which I should have, but don't have.
there's lots of jobs, for like pytorch, python and java developers, I just don't have them.
Going to school and getting assaulted with various dystopian novels like 1984, brave new world, hunger games, handmade's tale certainly did not help. Raading sci fi novels like the hyperian cantos also did not help. my choices in life didn't help but I don't really know in many ways what to do to rectify them. going to go back to applying for jobs here. I may be able to get my cna again and work with older people which would be good. maybe I can convince my employers to start using phenoAge or grimage to measure the genetic damage of aging on people.
The homeless in Boston basically die on the streets here which might be better than some of the fates that people have all over the world sadly.
meeting my sister on 6/17
I want to believe that God has a good fate planned out for everyone but that is not what is written. We are infinitely evil in comparison to God. It is written "no one does good", so if it is a just world, those who don't do good which is everyone might not get anything good.
Still, it's inconceivable to me to believe that God really just creates a bunch of creatures for eternal hell. That would be infinitely cruel, a quality which god shouldn't be associated with, however all the holy books say that indeed, God does kill or those w
