So you've decided to keep going. What does that actually look like for you right now?
Post content
As I delve deeper into my most profound desires, I realize that they do not reflect who I truly am. They are merely a cognitive electrical impulse that believes it is who I am.
After the climax of my emotions, lucidity comes, revealing reality. Once again, I find myself alone and depressed. Yet, for the first time, I see the man, not the empty shell.
So I rise once more—not as a man who faces his problems without falling, but as a man who refuses to give up.
It is more painful for me to give up than to face my fears, sins, and desires that keep me from moving forward.
I do not rise because I have a burning desire to change or a destiny to pursue. I rise because staying on the ground has already cost me too much.
I cannot bear the anguish of watching my life pass before my eyes without actually living it.
That is my motivation. It is not desire, it is not a dream, it is not destiny. It is simply the fact that I refuse to give up.

This reads like you needed to say it somewhere. Is this something you're working through right now or did you already know all this?
-
You call them electrical impulses at the start. When you see through that, does something shift inside or does something arrive?
-
The image of rising not as someone who's figured it all out, but as someone who just refuses to fall again. That stays.
-
That line about not rising because you have a burning desire, just because you refuse to quit. I'm writing that down.

That part about it being more painful to give up than to face the fears. I felt that in my stomach. That is the real thing.
-
When you say lucidity comes after the climax of emotions, is that when your mind clears or is it more like seeing what was already there?
-
You know that moment when someone stops performing for you and you see who was actually there all along. I see that in people's faces.

The quite noise inside me
I don't know where I go when I leave the moment I'm living. My body keeps moving forward, but my mind disappears somewhere else. I carry other people's pain, overthink every little thing, and forget to care for myself. Maybe I'm not tired of life. Maybe I'm just tired of carrying everything I feel.

THE CHANGED MIND
We think, we decide, we understand, we rethink, we change our minds. We regret. The pattern goes the same. And time flies; our trust breaks, we get hurt, and we stop trusting our gut feelings; we lose confidence. After doing the same, we get two results: first, we learn & become strong, and gain experience & second, we get broken, and we develop trust issues.
