Some are celebrating Halloween, and I'm counting the hours until the Winter comes. It's like waiting for an old friend, you shower, do your makeup, get a good hairstyle, paint your nails and wait. Maybe it's strange. As a kid, I loved to sit on the roofs of high-rise buildings. It helped me to forget, not to think about people, they were just spots somewhere far away. Now, it's like I sit on the roof all the time, in terms of getting away from people, because I feel danger from them.
The uniqueness of the individual and the immortality of the soul.
Why are animals not unique? Our pets are unique, but they got that uniqueness from us. All animals are embodiments of a common natural soul, yes, an animal has a soul that reveals itself, expresses itself, we see that the animal has self-awareness, but how is all this different from a human being? Unlike an animal human being realizes his or her potential, unrealized possibilities, this very fact indicates that the root of the human self is much deeper. The animal doesn't worry about self-actualization, an animal doesn't have to worry about growing in spirit, it lives what it is, it is what it is. Human being, on the other hand, realize that he/she are so much more than than he/she is right now, a human being has abilities, potential, possibilities, so a human makes plans and sets goals. An animal is not self-determined, it just grows within certain limits set by nature. The self-determination of the individual takes place in the spiritual realm; it involves knowledge of the good, what is good and what is bad. An animal itself cannot do good or bad, only if a person does not teach the animal that for example taking food without permission or tearing stuff is bad, then the animal can feel guilt but an animal can't set boundaries for itself. In humans, this boundaries are set by God, society does not set these boundaries, but only comprehends them, sometimes in a false way, and there's so much suffering because of it. The metaphor of personality as a rider on the horse: the rider is the mind and the horse is the animated body, the ability of the rider to control the horse as an assumption that the rider is independent from the body and mental state, the human being unlike animals is capable of self-restraint and thoughtful suicide, the suicide decision come from an unchanging, immortal part of the personality to the changeable part. The horse can die, but the rider can't, only an immortal "myself" has the courage to say "I'm going to die".
Write me down somewhere
As a mark on the glass
Make me a note
Of your long day
I'll be a message on the table
And maybe it says goodbye
Write me down in your notebook
It's not difficult for me
To be a record on a white sheet
We are happy together, I don't know to whom I am addressing, maybe to the void, but nevertheless, don't hurt us, don't separate us, all we want is to live and enjoy life. Don't hurt us...
