The kids today, sadly, the majority, so 51 percent, not only don't care, but they don't get it. Most won't listen to anything played by real instruments w/o the autotune sound. It's over after my generation dies. I haven't heard any great guitar rock since Silversun Pickups, or maybe GVF. Have you? The Joy Formidable? Florence +The Machine? Help me out here. Seems like guitars, regrettably, are fading...plus, not to mention it takes hard work to play one.

      That's just guessing and acceptance of other people's mindsets.
      I know there r creatures who know exactly what the universe is and have yet to show me any proof of its actual operations. Just like reality god Lucifer or any other story line. I like mystery of faith and nice surprises but in the reality I've been in.... It kinda doesn't seem to be fare. Its unfortunate because I've had to basically sit on the sidelines and suffer another's version of reality. I do love bird's tree's nature and when I'm not judging something I feel much better. I was trained to judge from an early age and duality was put into my mindset pathways. Anywho

      It triggered another memory from all of the insane dreams I had last night. A man mentioned that I need b more careful with my thoughts. I have a diagnosis of psychosis and several other labels that I actually believe r portions of myself trying to develop my mindset as I would like it to be. Its like being a child in an adult body and recognizing that I don't want to behave in some of the ways I've been behaving. I don't like violence and have not been able to watch violent television programs for about 5yrs moew. I'm interested in seeing if I progress in my own development. It's 1 day at a time and catching myself when I'm reactive because I have internalized anger from some unfortunate events I'm trying to process and let go of. But you can't fake it. It really takes a true mmmmmm forgiveness. Looping through the same anger wow. Its taken over a yr of almost complete solitude to calm the negative focus and momentum. I had no idea that I could become that angry. It's not a emotion I like to Express much yet I was hyper focused on problems and the realization that I don't understand the inner workings of my apparatus. That I've relied on outside sources to tell me what I need to b healthy and finding contradictions in that data. I'm most grateful to have the opportunity to retrain my own mind pathways. About 10yrs ago i had forces come into the reality and uproot me from my life i was living. Its been extremely challenging but i think there is reason for all of it and to help me develop in areas of my interest. I'm highly sensitive and disregulted and am trying to work through trauma responses from practicing resistance focusing for so long without the awareness to understand that's what I was doing. I'm a very gentle individual under all of the programs and experimental I've encountered.
