Facebook is probably easier, I'm just going to grab my breakfast and some tea and then we can start >.>

>breakfast at dinner time

Fucking bongs

It gets worse when you realise it's 40 minutes past midnight, here.

I'm having soup with bread.

Bizarre. Music, at least to me, no matter the genre or tone makes me paint scenes in my head. Anything, I have something going on in the background. Shame I have NO determination to actually make something out of it in drawing or writing.

Right, I have some more time and I've collected myself up a little better.

The waking mind and the sub-conscious are always at war. They contest one another, constantly. The waking mind is your reality. It's the one you're familiar with, and see every day. Which is why, your subconscious contradicts your beliefs. Because often, people make barriers for themselves. False realities to accept and deal with the world around them.

Look at smokers. You tell them they should stop. It's not healthy for them. That right there should be enough. You're smoking ash and toxic chemicals that wittle your body down piece by piece until you die.

But they say, "oh but I'm addicted. I can't beat it."

That's a lie. People lie to themselves all the time without knowing it. The waking mind will come up with any excuse, any reality that suits them. But the sub-conscious always knows. And that's a fact. You know when docs put people into a state of hypnosis? A controlled state, almost like sleep, where the sub-conscious emerges, like it does when you dream.

That's how they find buried shit. Because the sub-conscious knows. It remembers. It picks up, on all the little things your active mind misses. Like subliminal messaging.

But, even when you're awake, your sub-conscious still holds power. Because it plays games. And you have to look for the contradictions in yourself. Like I said, I'd go into crowds, feel sad, listen to music, and then feel sad, even if I listened to happy music to cheer me up.

I got depressive, and a little bit of self pity slipped in. And one day, I spotted it. I said, "Wait what the fuck? Why am I being all mopey about people? Why am I being mopey about being alone? I've always been alone. I like alone."

Not quite. I like alone. But sharing it with another would be better.

And now, my waking mind knows.

But it's not easy. Because this is your sub-conscious we're talking about here. And sometimes, those contradictions in your thoughts and actions, are so fucking small they aren't even there.

Another suggestion to you, since you probably have access to more than I do, is to go to one of those docs that specializes in that sort of stuff.

But, I'd go with self examination first. Because if you go to one of those docs, you might dig up way more than you want to.

Tell you what? You drink any sort of alcohol?

Try getting tipsy. Or drunk. Get a friend to write shit down. Make a list of questions they can ask you. You know why?

When you're drunk, you're free. Your brain is drunk, and your inhibitions are set loose. That's why drunk people mouth off. They get into fights. They say stupid shit. Because they have nothing holding them back. Nothing holding back what they're thinking.

If you drink, then that might be another way to learn a little bit more about yourself.

And, I have one more example for you about how people lie to themselves.

Talk to a drunk person about some of the shit they said the other night. What do they say?

"Oh I was drunk."

The waking mind, deflecting, and avoiding the sub-conscious mind, which was set free, only briefly.

There you go Meta. Canadian Manchild delivers.

Hope it helps.
