Dear coconut:
Fear is the most powerful emotion, the most distressing. I think we all fear death, it is hard to understand ceasing to exist. But as I look at nature and death being as common as life, it is not a tragedy in nature, business as usual. It is probably that us humans, because we can imagine eternity, we get so devastated that we are not the eternal we can imagine.. and desire to be.
“I don’t feel like anything matters”- but it matters, to “be real and honest and tell myself only the truth”, this is what you want, you stated so, and what you want matters.
“how can you love someone and then get so angry at them that you would hurt them a lot and not think for one second of how they must be feeling and that you actually love them”-
– anger is an emotion that has in it the intent to hurt another (or to scare another with the threat of hurting them). The angry person wants the person they are angry with to hurt, they find satisfaction in that, at least temporarily.
Would you like to share about who gets or got so angry at you and hurt you?
* I will be away from the computer for about 15 hours and will be glad to read from you when I return, if you choose to answer me.
