Neverland

I hope all works out for you in the end :3 People have burdens that they can't carry themselves. I like to think I'm strong emotionally because I've been through a lot of heartache, so I don't worry about helping others carry their burdens ^^ I know I don't have too many people I can go to with my woes, but I don't feel down too often, so it's fine for the majority of the time lol. Even if I can't relate to a certain someone's issue, I can always try my best to empathize with them :) Yeah I tend to ramble whenever someone talks about something I'm passionate about XD I think that's a common thing among introverted people; it's easier to think before speaking. I'm a little quiet irl when people first meet me, but once I'm comfortable with that person, I'm kind of like this X3

Goodluck Bro. Goals first before anything else. Hmm It'll take me probably 4 years more. I'm taking some subjects slow so I can still be full time at work to pay off loans. You can do this just keep on that grind!

Meeeh, I'd rather concern myself with practicalatters and the likes of individuation and such :p. I have no clue if we will meet aeliens, and therefore withhold my word. :p Forever is a funny word. There will never be a point when one can say humanity has lived forever, and thus, stating it will would be missing the mark haha

Prejudice itself is a result of judgement, which in itself is not a bad thing. It is deeply needed for the sustainment of life, as well as morals, however... A good level of empathy is what's lacking I guess. And even though it's not great at the moment, it sure as hell is getting better over the years. Things aren't all so bad :p

Haha, that thought flow reminded me of P.K. Dick's "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep". The topic of individuality and the hive-mind is an interesting one I guess. Loss would depend upon whether it's a permanent or a occasional joining. One would result in a brainstorm, perhaps some small long term changes with a lot of short term ones, but... our own biological tendencies wouldn't really be touched without direct effort from us. If it were a constant link, then... that's a whole different story xD I guess we'd sacrifice autonomy for a greater processing power in a single unit. Is that sacrifice one worth taking...? No one can answer :p Sins, eh? Funny name :p I'd rather refer to them as innate drives, tendencies or powers that if kept unchecked and repressed in the shadow too long, rule over us ;p Again, individuality in the hive-mind would depend upon what basis it operates under, aaand we're far from qualified enough to practically talk about that. Actually, I doubt anyone understands the brain well enough to talk about that xD

That's understandable, since you wouldn't know who you "really" be meeting. I mean, if you haven't met them before and just talked to them online. We do have Sami people, well, they are also in Norway, Finland and parts of Russia. For customs it varies on where you go, but we do have some customs. One thing is dancing around a midsummer pole. But, that's one thing people do every year

:O No I haven't noticed. I hope whatever is troubling you will resolve soon :) Yes I do that all the time. Idk what it is, maybe it's me thinking "Oh, i'm supposed to be not busy, and that stuff is busy work" XD Lol I have my low points, but don't to bum people out. I know there are people out there who have it together than I do, so I always try to make the time to listen to others and show them my kindness. Some people don't have anyone to turn to, and I really emphasize with those individuals. I believe that if even one person can listen and emphasize with someone's problems, that someone can be just a little more happy knowing someone is willing to lend an ear ^^ It can be overwhelming at times, but I always try my best to cheer anyone up, even if I'm not really that great at giving advice, I hope I can at least cheer them up so they are confident enough to seek the help they need :) Sorry I kind of rambled about that XD
