The life of the empath

in #personal7 years ago (edited)

I don't believe in telepathy. I think thats an unrealistic concept.

I do however know this.

I feel empathy, extra-ordinary empathy, and so I call myself an empath. I see people and its as though I can almost feel their suffering, their happiness, their loves and dreams, their pain.

I think it comes from imagination, having great imagination like I seem to allows one to extrapolate people, the more i learn about people the more i can see who and what they are and I learn much from people just by seeing how they act, how they speak, it doesn't take long.

And mostly it just makes me upset, because I know, with a lil better management, we would remove 99% of the suffering here on this earth, I feel the earth, I see its pain, I see what we could be, what we are being made to be, how what we could be and what we are being made to be are not compatible.

We need love but largely all we know is fear.

and contrary to what SOME "Authorities" might say, suffering is not good for the soul, not like this, adversity perhaps, but not suffering, not the way we are.

The ones who tell you that the pain in the world is good and acceptable are the ones most vested in ensuring our suffering maintains.

I however dispute that, I say youve been lied to like we all have, and they use our rage and our hate against us, keep us divided, keep us in pain, where if we surpassed that we could easily become a dominant force in our whole galaxy, we have this potential.

But potential goes both ways, the greater capacity for good, the greater capacity for evil because it comes with the job, one wrong move and good immediately can turn into evil and That is why with great power comes great responsibility.

I have a responsibility: To tell you all the things I have learned and to feel all the negativity in the world until it stops.

One of those is a choice and the other is not, which makes the one that is a choice, in a way, no choice at all.. Oh the universal irony.

Anyway I've said enough.

I Did just wanna link this video and say something about empathy but it evolved quickly beyond my control.

But this clip from x-men really resonates with me, its symbolic to me about how to deal with being an empath which is just someone who can feel things strongly. Its a gift, but its also its own kind of hell and this clip shows that. But then I think, there are legitimate psychopaths who literally cannot feel anything and I think about that and think that THAT would be an even greater hell, a whole different level, one that I would never wish to visit, therefore feeling things deeply is good. I Want to be good, I can understand evil, but I want no part in it or its associated philosophies.

Theres my morning musings on myself for you.

Its 8:15am and ive not slept.

I tend not to sleep in the night.

I also tend to sometimes debate as a younger and older version of myself about the merits of being an empath, hence why I like this clip.

People Like What They Are Like.

Do you like this?

Sort:  

I do feel the same.

I also suffered a big part of my teen time.
Because of the empathy I could feel and get misunderstandings or problems in little as in big bit couldnt do anything.

you needed to see the true underlying problems but couldn't, all you could see were the effects of this fabricated world thrust on humanity, which is painful, which is good that you felt it, because it shows you are human and are responding normally the way a normal human would to such devastation. Pain is true.

it turns out that the true problems of this world are worse than most can imagine, which is why most can't see, because they can't fathom it. But they CAN fathom it if its presented as fiction. Which it is, to a disturbing degree.

But I could see the Real problems. Due to my really big empathy.

People just dont want to be helped. Maybe too egoistic.
Or you dont know them good enough.
Or they tell you to care about ur own problems.

Every political problem also has a solution.
But they dont want any solution. They just want the people to panic.

Right you could see that, but those problems are symptoms of even bigger problems, the ones that I talk about. all human suffering stems from them. We arent a free people we're an imprisoned people knowingly or otherwise all scrambling on top of eachother to try to stay in the sun. And there are precise causes of that.

Were talking about the same problems. Because I dont stop at the symptoms. These are just the beginning of my investigation.

You probably mean the political system..

I come from germany and the brainwash is big.

Anyways. I prefer voluntarism over compulsion. That's why I prefer anarchy over democracy.

And these problems mirror in every day life.

We also dont have a war on drugs. We have a war on mind.

Or why is heroin schedule two and all the psychedelics schedule one drugs?

But okay.. I was dumb enough to write about a better way to handle drugs.. in Bavaria..
Here it's way harder than in germany in general because of the conserative CDU/CSU + SPD (christs)
But that they damage more with their drug policy is not recognizable for them.

But people are so easily instrumentalised
