Good people have high levels of empathy, but once that empathy is exhausted, they switch to a state of objective observation. They see you for exactly who you are, without the filter of their love. This is why their anger feels so cold, it is the absence of the warmth you took for granted
The kindest thing literature does is remind you that your peculiar little feelings have always existed. Someone, in some century, was equally confused by love, bored by society, tired of performing, and hungry for meaning.
La romantización de la "salud mental" en redes nos está vendiendo la idea de que sanar es tomar café en tazas lindas y escribir en un diario, cuando en realidad "sanar" es un proceso asqueroso, violento, solitario dónde eres tú peleando con tu mente
I read it somewhere "We romanticized the wrong organ the stomach is more emotional than the heart" and it feels so true. We feel butterflies in our stomach and when we're sad we lose our appetite our stomach gets affected by emotions way more than we realize.
It's crazy how people always forget that politicians are their employees. 'Public servants'
You literally pay their salaries. They are employees, not rulers.
The fact people forget this is why they're able to get away with so much mischief and tyrannical BS.
Most people need consistency more than they need intensity.
Intensity:
-run a marathon
-write a book in 30 days
-silent meditation retreat
Consistency:
-don't miss a workout for 2 years
-write every week
-daily silence
Intensity makes a good story. Consistency makes progress.
