if you wake up much earlier than normal you feel secret emotions

[medusasstory]

#one time i just woke up at 7 am and stared at the sunrise for like an hour #dont know what emotions those were but they sure were a lot!!

[riverside--wren]

If you stay up late enough, you feel those same emotions, but the bad version of them

An ode to the overcast winter hikes that got me through a long, cold, and isolated winter this year. Being in nature and watching the seasons slowly progress is a gentle reminder that nothing is permanent and that easier times are coming.

Saw this on TikTok... It's really sticking with me...

"What was that flip of a switch moment that permanently changed you're life or perspective?

Client: So I go to therapy, in my first session.

Therapist: you're well adjusted, why are you here?

C: I'm a good father, husband, employee, friend... But I want to be great at those things and I'm not, so I'm here to get help.

T: You are all those things for others: You are a father for your son, a husband for your wife, employee for your boss, a friend for your friends. When you're not in those roles, who are you for yourself?

C: I thought for a moment, and then said I don't think there's much of a person left underneath those roles.

“When someone utters the word “iron” or “silver,” don’t we all think of the same thing? … But what happens when we say “just” or “good”? Doesn’t each one of us go in a different direction? Don’t we differ with one another and even with ourselves?”

— Plato, Phaedrus

“It is, in fact, far easier to act under conditions of tyranny than it is to think.”

— Hannah Arendt, The Human Condition

[philosophybits]

“To call someone wise, seems to me too much, and proper only for a god. To call him wisdom’s lover — a philosopher — or something similar would fit him better and be more seemly.”

— Plato, Phaedrus

“Perfectionism is a self destructive and addictive belief system that fuels this primary thought: If I look perfect, and do everything perfectly, I can avoid or minimize the painful feelings of shame, judgment, and blame.”
