Alone

 I feel alone again. I don't understand why this is happening. I am surrounded by people who are kind to me. Why do I feel so alone?! It makes no sense. I would like for something to make sense for once. Something in my life at least. Other things make sense. But my life does not. I'm sure life makes sense to someone out there, and I am envious of them. If I could have that same clarity, maybe I wouldn't hate life so much. But I do. There's no rhyme or reason to any of it. I just don't grasp the simple concept of life.

I've thought about it over and over again, how we are born we live, and we eventually die. Then someday there's a judgement for all of what we did while on this Earth. Maybe there is nothing to get. It could be all a charade meant to fool me into a false sense of belief, if I were to have something make sense. No matter what happens I am still alone. So, I will go forth and try to exist the best way I know how.

Life shouldn't be this way. It needs to be something better. Only I can make my life better than it currently is. How do I go about doing that exactly. There must be a way to reason with myself about how this life unfolds. I can't be the only person who doesn't understand life in general. If I am? Then I am one poor bastard. But I don't think it is that way. I try to live my best life as it currently stands. There are days I just don't get the hang of it and I fall flat on my face. A trigger there, a memory here. Something can catch me off guard and I'm down for the count.

I don't want to go back to a hospital. I probably should though. Damn I hate when I know what I should do, but I'm too stubborn to do anything about it. None of it makes sense to me. Why should it. I'm here awake and alive. I'm no harm to anyone but myself. That's all there is to it. There's no reason for me to be hospitalized. No reason at all.

I don't think I'm over my grief and loss of my dad. Not yet. I've just managed to stuff it down so far that I don't think about it. Somedays it comes to the surface, and I am unable to resist the thoughts of how much I miss him. Those days are the worst. Eventually I'll forget what his voice sounded like. I don't want that to happen. It can't happen. I can't let it happen. He was my hero. He was like superman in a way. But he was taken away too soon for me. I regret not talking to him more. I always ended up talking with my mom on the phone. Wherever he is, I hope he remembers me.

There are so many things about this life that I don't get or understand. I'm not sure I want to understand everything that enters my path. It might be too much for my brain to handle. I wish I could forget about the understanding part or trying to understand it all and just live my life. I try to be a good person. I try to be there for others, but I'm sure there's more I could do to do my part. I just do not know. That scares me to a point. Not knowing has always scared me. I fear the unknown. Probably not a good thing to have going on inside my brain, but what am I supposed to do about it. There can't be that many ways to figure things out, can there? Why am I pushing myself to figure everything out all at once. It doesn't make sense.

I am but a man and I do as I wish. It doesn't matter what it is for I am just me.

Suicidal Ideation

 Over the years I've had to deal with suicidal ideation. Those are thoughts of being dead, some more extreme than others. It causes issues for me a lot of the time. It's not an easy thing to talk about at all. Here's what it is: Suicidal ideation ( suicidal thoughts )  are thoughts or ideas centered around death or suicide . Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
