If you want to feel seen, speak one authentic word.
Because the other person may reject you.
You may be accompanied by 10,000 "friends," but the loneliest place in the world is where you don't accept yourself.
No one can be your friend until you're a friend to yourself.
That's pretty good, lol
View quoted note →"If loneliness is a choice, so is being seen."
People don't tell the truth about themselves because they believe people will reject them.
Actually, that is partially true. If you speak the truth about yourself, some people WILL certainly reject you.
And it will hurt.
But then, you won't have rejected yourself.
You can get away from them, but you can't get away from yourself. Self-betrayal is more painful.
If you don't speak the truth about yourself, NO ONE gets a real opportunity to accept you.
Therefore, speak truth about yourself, sort out the losers who don't see how awesome you are, so we, the aristocracy of authenticity, can see who you are, and welcome you with open arms.
Because speaking truth about yourself is loving and respecting yourself, and we like people like you.
A tip for you:
Marry a women slightly better looking than you.

Listening to and singing Christmas music while driving with my wife, son, and on the way daughter, is so beautiful.

I've fought for YEARS to figure out a low cost way to sell our books directly to YOU, and Grok Bot finally came through, using Strike. Thank you
@jack mallers!
Thank God it's finally done!
For my purposes (scaling fikatimebooks dot com), Grok Bot is heads and shoulders above Hermes and Open Code with Muse Spark 1.3.

Why are Christians obsessed with suffering?
But not really in resolving it.
But seemingly in perpetuating it or living in it.
A job will NEVER make you wealthy.
A house you live in will never make you wealthy.
A huge pile of money will never make you wealthy.
Wealth is owning equity in an asset, while that asset(s) automatically meets human needs in exchange for money, that is more than your expenses.
One use for AI is using it to write all the objectionable things you could text to someone before texting the response that doesn't burn the bridge.
Me: "It looks like you just had a fight with an iguana."
Wife: "It was a sloth, and it won."

@AnnSofiNovelistAgentic AI is a boon for those who love learning.
The Bible contains zero contradictions.
You're in a developmental process with God, who is pursuing you because He wants you.
One facet of God he's developing in you is your intellect.
Intelligence is the ability to make finer distinctions.
Spiritually, psychologically, physically, and more.
Every new distinction you learn increases your contact surface with reality (the body of God), which increases the options you perceive, which increases the selections you're able to make, and this makes you functionally more free.
Confusion can't stay with a person who distinguishes between what is the same and what seems the same but isn't the same.
God is infinitely intelligent, so there is no end to the distinctions He can make.
When you're as intelligent as Him, you're intellectual development is over.
Are you as intelligent as God yet?
As long as Christians claim the sinner identity after being born again, they worship themselves over God.
The more finer distinctions you make, the more intimate your relationships with reality, the more options you see each day, making you freer than before.

For the learners.
When you discover who God is, you'll be glad it's not someone else.
