human beings are born with this same ability btw. your thoughts are so powerful, they can not only reshape your entire reality but also send information to reprogram your cells, rewrite your DNA, control your immune responses, and reorganize your whole body on a cellular level
You need boredom. A lot of it. Start by going on walks without music. No stimulation. No distractions of any kind. If you learn to sit with your own thoughts, for long enough, in time they will start serving you. You'll start having ideas once again. You'll start developing an extreme sense of clarity that will shift you into the next stage of your life. All by being bored, which is pretty insane.
“Nobody is coming to save you” but your day literally gets better after you consume art made by other people. You hang w friends & you’re no longer suicidal, even if just for a few minutes. They’re lying to you about the significance of community. People are saving you EVERYDAY!
I love reading David’s crash-outs in the Psalms. 😭 One minute he’s praising God, the next he’s pouring out his frustration about evil, injustice, and why the wicked seem to prosper. It’s comforting to know that even a man after God’s own heart brought his hardest questions to God.
