Yearning for stability, we hallucinate a stable sense of self, a self-deception filled with static notions of who we are. Thus the river becomes a rock-- unchanging and solidified by its illusion.

If the self is rooted in memory, then the soil of experience and information are essential for the self to sprout into an infinitely massive Yggdrassil.

Sometimes for me to exit my introversion, I have to leap out of my brain and land onto someone else's world of colors.

I wake up every morning with the full readiness to take the day, but something is always missing.

@Lustrxl Could it be that your BPD is sabotaging the stability of a meaningful connection because it prefers the instability of pushing it away so suddenly? Maybe it's not so unusual to like both the warmth of a deep connection and the thrill of destroying it.....hmmm.
