go to higheer level of your consciousness.. "Ego Death".. Sense of oneness... we are one!!.. transcendence
Ego evoles.... Zawad ... You have ego, definitely

Every I make tons of judgements per day.. You are jackass... bullshit... move away from judgements... Raise your level of consciousness.
Everything is OK.. It just being.. Don't evaluate
"There is nothing good or bad, only thinking makes it so" - William Shakespeare
external circumstance -> (Your thought which you may call interpreter or filter) -> motives to action -> mutate your emotion
Thought creates Emotion
Breakup happened, right???
Is it a bad event or good event?
No, it is just an event !!!
Your thinking actually makes it good or bad.. remember it is just an event!!
Your thought process is actually the interpreter.
"if you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment." - Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
Fuck it...I'm gonna think it negatively
I can change the filter, I'm in control of my thinking, nobody else.
Your suffereings is not for external circumstances, it's because of your lazy interpretations.
You are insulted and you ruined it...Shouldn't I feel bad for it?
At that moment .. "Learned Helplessness"
Take a conscious decision.
You can grow your brains.. You brain is essentially you.. that means you can grow yourself. Read books and practice it.
Though it seems anecdote, You are causing your emotion.
You are lonely because fundamentally you're disconnected from being and from your true self.
You can really bask in the being and really appreciate it!!
You need to be serious about your growth...bite the bullet in this case and face the solitude head-on..you need to expose yourself to the loneliness... go through that initial hump of being lonely ...tame the loneliness ..connect yourself to being and then center yourself in solitude... Solitude is your center.. It's the thing that grounds you... It's like bedrock of your whole life... It's your compass because you are essentially part of Brahman.. merge your atman with brahman.. subjugate your maya... escape from samsara.. Try to achieve Moksha or Nirvana..whcih you can subjugate through practice. Dissolve your ego.. Oneness there is it......
The Holy Grail is the beauty of life but it's not as nice as it sounds on paper right because it's not... BUT you can take photograph of it... It's so profound and you can't express it to others... with language or images.. It's all inside you..
..For you with personal development is that you want to be able to be the last man on earth so to speal and still be happy so that you need nobody to happy because you are so thrilled with the joy of existence itself of some the simplicity of being but also the profundity of being.. and you're connected with that.. that everything else is a bonus.. which does not mean that I'm telling you that you should be anti-social...
After understanding the of context of various situations or phenomena.. be mindful...why this.. after going through the hump..then make good friends and good girlfriend.. and contribute something of value to the world..
When you're contributing something of value to the world and you're drawing your inspiration from your solitude..
solitude makes you creative...solitude is what gives you the vision of a genius that most people can never understand...it gives you foresight and it gives you wisdom and then... contribution make you happy...but this is secondary... primary is as mentioned "IN THE STATE OF SOLITUDE"
.. find your authentic self..You are actually catching bigger fish..
