I might just bury myself in video games tonight.
Just not in a great headspace right now.
If I'm trying to get over something someone said to me.
Yeah I bury myself in books or games.
Need to vent frustration through digital mouse clicks.
@KelethDragon I used to be incredibly sensitive about what people said to me but then I realized people really are bastards most of the time and there are fewer and fewer really kind-hearted good people in the world and everybody has an agenda what I do is compartmentalize the kind person and warrior in myself and I only bring out the warrior person whenever something is really threatening to me otherwise you just got to let the good person in you shrug off the nastiness.
@KelethDragon My Philosophy and what I found over the years of soul-searching about it is the warrior and good person are always in Conflict within us the warrior wants to come and attack and that's what makes us upset but the good person naturally absorbs the bad comments and really renders them meaningless it's just a matter of controlling the two emotions. Just thought I'd share my thoughts on it. Good luck don't let it bother you, I hope it all works out for you.
@sapadian ...I don't want to hurt or attack anyone.
Just the equilivant of having a heavy sigh, wishing they'd stop. Then doing something to get my mind off of it.
@KelethDragon let me clarify that I don't mean physically attack them what I'm saying is say you have a co-worker that is trying to sabotage your work. The warrior fights with confidence and strength pushing back on those negative forces letting them know you're not going to take no s*** from them. Now there's the other case where somebody might say a couple nasty words in which case you let the Christ energy come out in you and just let it roll off your back.
@KelethDragon do video games work like that for you I find that when I play video games it actually engages my brain more have you ever tried watching a YouTube video of some obscure documentary that you don't know anything about? That helps me.
