Only thing is I feel myself slip-sliding towards that with each passing day.
It's nearly unbearable. Nearly.
To have consciousness is not quite a plus in these days.
Not that I'd rather be in a state of unconsciousness. But it's so intensive these days, it hurts.
What a way to wreck oneself.
You eat correctly, take supplements, exercise, get enough zzz's, surround yourself with positive reinforcement (zen, spirituality, etc.) and then get subjected to/exposed to this toxicity.
Nice going.

Hi, Lust For Life! 🤗

Peace be unto you,
