RE: | t h e • e m p a t h • 2 | Flying under the radar
my thoughts are parallel to yours szuri, especially loss of identity; i have had the hangover you have described for months; it is a hazeful suffering gloom that only grows; of self-perception
this is my thought process in relation to a label (e.g. empath):
1- i haven't accomplished anything by making them feel better if they will have these reccurent thoughts.
2- there is a correlation between identifying as an empath and self infliction (deliberately so).
3- i'm a sentient parasitic life form that to whom exist is to take away life from something else , wrapped up in memories of qualia to fulfill motivations unbeknownst to me? for what? that isn't virtuous!
4- decorating oneself with stories they think they are/what is to be achieved; only later knowing their barren, spurious meaning.
5- that there is an apparent frankness and honesty that is lost among society behind veiled masks (me included, trying to reduce this à la now à la steemit)
5- despite attempts at sincere self-expression anything i think is limited unconsciously
= weltschmerz, weariness from a cycle of hell = done with life = repeat cycle until severe au revoir
(appreciate your posts szuri, makes me know at least someone has similar experience, although i don't think i can help (1 again oh no))
Words can't express the impact your comments always have on me @outtayourbox. Thank you :) ❤
hopefully for the better? i can be a difficult influence, & not always so negative :)
Always for the better ❤
Hi @outtayourbox
Such philosophical words which made me feel liking to comment on them
These are the black holes I spoke about on my comment to @szuri on this same post. These people will never feel any better because they DON"T WANT TO. So better learn to identify them fast and stay away from them as far as you can.
Not necessary. Once you understand it is a noble identity and accept it. Then you will learn to protect it while still being of service to those you feel empathy towards. Having empathy should never be harmful, except there are many black wholes who take advantage of the empath they meet and cause him/her to inflict harm on themselves.
I don't agree with calling the empath as a parasite. If anything, at least from my experience, negative people are usually feeding on any positive energy I have, whether I want to give it or not. This makes them parasites and makes me a parasite haven. LOL
The rest, I call that co-existing.
In my opinion, if I want to deliver a message to people, I am better off speaking in the language that will most efficiently deliver the message to them. It is not always good delivering a message naked.
I am saying this from my own experience. Sadly, I am a very frank person. Meaning, even if I stay silent and say nothing, I can't hide my feelings from my face and this has put me in lots of problems in my life. Sometimes, delivering my message will cause a negative surge from the person receiving my message. This doesn't help me in my communication or in solving the issue. It only makes it worse.
Hope you will feel more positive as well :D
Would disagree with some things:
One can not know the hardship of others without experience,
better or worse is perspective only.
Feeling 'better' is difficult when the compass for being so is unknown, if pain
is to be decreased; maybe I don't want to get better, if only knew what this would mean
Positive energy vs negative are both defense mechanisms to attempt to protect & help
one in radiating themselves, it is my expression, without I would not live.
Parasite perspective is based upon outside perspective on what objectively humanity does,
resources are consumed from elsewhere, other life is taken by our life
Frankness is good, for this reason I don't hide what I say for fear of provoke; despite this not barren of positivity (:
