We all are. It's the basic condition.

Yes. And that is really rough for people in mood disorders. Extra rough.
if I could escape my own reality enough
Some post-modernists are calling one's own reality a fiction. I think it's a
handy tool for thinking.
to really see others for who they really are, see past all the jealousy
and insecurity and neediness,and self loathing and shame, my world would
be a much saner place.
Yeah. All the wise people claim that is how it is. The doctors too.
of course this is not a new idea but its been on my mind,
So now is a good time to pursue it.
also given the political climate, terrorisom= hate, isn't hate a very
dangerous thing because, isn't there a kind of transference that happens,
don't you kind of become the thing you hate,
Yes. that is exactly how terrorism is supposed (by terrorists) to work. That
goes for any kind of terrorism too, whether state or cell, whether here or
there; and it does it the same on both sides. It's an escalating force.
I think this sort of bleeds over into the idea of love and hate being
horns on the same bull, and the idea that there can be good inside of
evil,
I don't know. I guess I lean toward the bull, but the good and evil part is
too confusing for me. I try to just stick to harmful, how harmful the
different courses of action or inaction, choice, may be.
the lines get all blurry,
Too blurry for me.
what a world, be happy as you can be, jill
Ok.
