This is not to say I think life is terrible or I find nothing beautiful, but there is truly no reason why people are born the particular way they are. Despite the "empirical" emphasis I've placed on my world view, I am also a believer that consciousness always yields to tragedy to some degree.
I prefer to see my own personal accomplishments and achievements as if it were that firebreathing side of me who was responsible for it, and less the hominid. When I go to sleep, I don't imagine going to sleep as a human When I look in the mirror, I realize it's hard to see myself a human. While a lot of my beliefs about the world remain the same, I realize the changes I have made to myself have been in the template of my character. I have even a more robust story about my character then ever before. I've always thought it was a weird psychological quirk I had, and nothing more.įast forward to today an adult: These thoughts continue and have no way abated. I joined the furry fandom some years ago to sort of scratch that itch I had for that fantasy. I have always been obsessed with a particular mythical creature, (*cough* one that might breath fire.), to the point where I have created an entire narrative in my head about what that version of me might look like. I was moving to a new apartment and looked over some old journals I had kept from when I was younger. However, the past few years have been quite.interesting. My metaphysical outlook has historically been one that has very deeply rooted in materialism in other words, sort of the humdrum attitude of "all there is physical, and all there is what I can test." To a large degree, this is how I still interact with the world. I've always been someone with a very deep interest and appreciation for the empirical sciences and philosophy. I'll give my spiel (and dear god I apologize for the length here-there's just no way to put in a shorter form):
I am just trying to understand where everyone is coming from. That being said, I am in no way judging anyone here or putting myself on some pedestal like I know what the hell is going on in the universe. I say all of this because I need to detail my own set of beliefs, which may or may not be at odds with what folks hold here. In fact, the reason I am here is due to a lot tectonic realizations about my own life and how I approach the world, and as such, I am here as a someone with genuine curiosity. First of all, I would like to say I am not here to disparage or insult the community here.
