".. but not a real life". Yet somehow he knows that there is a thing called "real life"! The divine spark still glows in him. Albeit he's given up. And granted, his idea of a "real life" might just be another bunch of concepts. He's thirsty. Just doesn't yet see that the thirst has been put in him for a purpose, not to torture him.
It is when you have gone through a few trials and had the rug pulled out from under you that you know who your true allies are. Besides, the current social welfare state is bankrupt and you will have to work until you drop I'd you want to survive.
My mindset is the same. All the setbacks, knock downs and gravel in the mouth... Ive always just picked up and kept pressing forward. Fuck ..I lived for 7 yrs off grid -no solar power- where you have winter conditions 1/2 the year. My bathroom was an outhouse and Id chop ice out if a well to get my water after working in the woods all day. Thats one small sliver of my life experience to date.
But its these sorts of life experiences that forge a man into one who can persevere at whatever trials are thrown his way vs one who folds like a wet paper sack and shrivels up and dies though he still remains living.
I don’t think these Tree of Woe types ever even HAD trials thrown at them. I mean just the name alone he chose for his blog… what kind of a loser attitude is that? Fuck these “people”. They are not even entertaining NPCs, just irritating obstructive ones.
This is the best thing you have written. God bless you brother.

Congrats on the new little one.
Yup, congratulations to you both 🙏
Nice!
Brother, I love the epic "mold-breaking" topics. Keep being unreasonable--let's rebuild Christendom.

When the demons come dancing out of the pit to carry them off, I pray that they find the will to fight.
