I need to get out of the house, but I can't get you out of my head.
I feel like I have said everything I needed to say, but I just don't know if it was enough. I encourage you to read my posts on this forum.
You must understand yourself and be honest with yourself. That is the bottom line. All the intellectual stimulation in the world will not save you from yourself. The solution to your troubles cannot be found in philosophy or any other complexity that excites you because you understand it so easily. It's much more basic than that, but it shouldn't be ignored just because it doesn't stimulate your intellect.
You are not as reserved as you think you are, and you damn well better let go of any prideful resentment toward society.
Remember this Bible verse that Jesus said about those who crucified him:
"Forgive them. They know not what they do."
People are not intentionally trying to hurt you. You confuse them. They don't understand you, and you can't make them understand you. You need to make peace with them. You need to be around people so that you can inspire them, but you have to think of realistic ways to be inspiring. Most people just aren't as "book smart" as you are, but that doesn't mean that they are stupid. You should still find a way to help them and see the good in them. Appreciate the value that they bring to the world. SHOW them that you care.
Before long, I'm going to have to give up on this. It's hard. Eventually, I will have to stop myself from posting on this website all together. I feel like I have seen "the light", and it tears me apart to think of anybody else going through the same types of things I have.
Did I do enough? I just don't know. :sad:
