Title: I'm just going to forget 2013 and erase it from my memory....
Post by: TraceOneInfinite Flat Earther 96' on January 09, 2014, 09:30:20 AM
I got back from Africa this time one year ago.  It was like January 9th.  Everything from January 9th to the end of 2013 I'm just going to go ahead and erase from my memory and act like I just got off the plane from Africa again.

Sometimes you just got to close your eyes and go underground and hustle for a while and that's what I did for 2013, and it wasn't pretty.  First I had no place to stay when I came back and had to live with my brother and his wife.  At least they gave me a room and place to stay, but they are totally different then me so I felt like I couldn't be myself for a couple months.  Finally got my own place and had 4,000 dollars of debt still to take care of.  The winter was really fucking cold all the way till May around here, I remember that.  Summer came finally, and it was just a lot of hustling and responsibilities from then on out with no real time for myself that worked out.

But now that I've got myself in the position I need to be in where life can actually start to make sense again, I'm just going to go ahead and forget 2013.  Just listen to some music to heal and forget 2013 and remember previous years and pick up from there.

How can you describe light, when you don't know darkness.
How do you describe joy, when you don't know sadness.

How do you recognize happiness when you don't know dissatisfaction?

Learn from your experience.

Don't forget you past, learn from it.

I'm 30 years old.   I've already learned enough in my life.  There is such thing as "OVER-LEARNING".  

I'll give you three good examples...

Example #1:  Imagine that I am a salesman about to knock on somebody's door.  The person on the other side of the door has already decided that they are absolutely NOT going to sell to me.  My boss has already decided for me what houses I have to sell to.  So I have to knock on his door anyway.  I knock on his door, try to sell him the item and he says no.  THERE IS NOTHING TO BE LEARNED FROM SUCH EXPERIENCE.   No need to analyze it.  Our time is limited in this life, and YOU SHOULD NOT OVER-ANALYZE THINGS THAT ARE ULTIMATELY OUT OF YOUR CONTROL.  Better to save the brain space for more useful ventures.

Example #2:  When Jerry Tarkanian was the coach of the UNLV Running Rebels in their prime, he used to often cut off practice after JUST 30 MINUTES!  Why?  No need to overload the players with excess information and work.  They went at it so hard for 30 minutes, he felt the value of their 30 minute practice was better than most teams 3 hours of practice.  Also a lot of baseball players, hitters, don't like too much information from the batting coach.  They say it slows their reaction time.  They would rather go to the plate with a clear head and just react to the ball.

Example #3:  This comes from a Zen proverb.  Two monks who had sworn themselves to a life of celibacy and isolation from women were walking down a path.  There was a stream in the middle of the path and a woman with a fancy dress who could not cross without damaging her clothes.  So one monk lifted her up in his arms and carried her across.  The monks continued walking, when a couple hours later the other monk commented... "I can't believe you carried that woman."   The monk replied, "I carried her for just a moment, you are still holding onto her hours later".   MORAL OF THE STORY IS TO KEEP AN EMPTY MIND AND NOT CARRY EXCESS STRESS.

The funny thing about this is if I was making another nostalgic post about one of my favorite past memories everybody would of posted saying... "MOVE ON INFANT!  FORGET IT!  YOUR STUCK IN THE PAST!"  lol

Actually it's pretty simple.  The mind can only contain so much information.  If your theory was true I wouldn't of failed so many classes in school and I would still remember my formulas from Freshman year Algebra.

I'm 30.  I've had enough "dark" experiences.   You have to have balance of "light" and "dark".   So if it's dark for two years before I get to the light, it's better I just go ahead and forget one of those years so everything can equal out again.

It's pretty easy homie..  I had an x-girlfriend in high-school I couldn't get over and it took me 4 years to do that.  But once I figured out how to get over her, I could get over almost anything thereafter; as long as it's not staring me in the face. 

Also, I've carefully documented my whole life through music.  I just modify my playlists and memories are either enhanced or mitigated.

Pretending like things didn't happen or exist is living in candy land. Learn from your mistakes. Confront yourself on what you could have done differently. Also look at the positives too.

You could be the best salesman in the world but if the customer has already determined that they are going to tell you "NO", no amount of learning from experience will help.  If your boss insists you try to sell to them, then you just knock on their door, they say no, you forget about it.. pick up your hourly wage and move on.

That's an analogy of the situation bro...

I'm not really getting your analogy.

Life is intended to be difficult. It's not supposed to be easy. You gotta prove what you're made of. Everybody struggles albeit in different manifestations. You are not unique in your struggle.

I don't think you're understanding the point I'm trying to make. I'm not talking about high school classes, I'm talking about genunienly trying situations that you claim to have gone through. All I'm saying is that you can learn a lot from situations that push you to the brink. Like dude above me was saying, life isn't supposed to be easy and really sucks at times, but that doesn't mean there isn't a lot you can learn from those difficult situations to make yourself better moving forward.

No, I am unique.  Have you ever seen anyone with the same fingerprints as me?  I am a first in the world...

...And life doesn't have to be difficult.  Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad.  Some people have lives that aren't difficult.  Don't make statements as if they are universal truths.

I don't have to prove anything to anyone.  What difference does it make if everyone struggles?  What are you implying by the comment that "everyone struggles"?  Are you implying that I shouldn't "complain" and that I should just live in denial or burry it deep inside, or accept it self-effacingly, or be hardened by it?

...You took one sentence out of my whole statement and took it out of context.  Point is, I don't need to re-learn the same lessons over and over again.  That's over-learning.  Once I get in a new situation with new circumstances and can spread my wings a bit again, then I will be happy to learn again.  I'm not learning anything being in Kansas City.

it sticks in the subconscious for eternity

While everything we do is lodged somewhere in the subconscious, a memory can lose it's power to affect your life, energy, aura, and thought process. 

A good example of this would be George Lucas the creator of Star Wars.  Before he became famous he had a near death experience with a car crash where he should of died, but remarkably he lived.  It gave him an all new perspective on life and he felt like a new man and as if every day thereafter he was on borrowed time.

So obviously that doesn't mean that he totally forgot his childhood, it just means he was able to take on a fresh perspective.

So which is it?  Am I supposed to remember the past or forget it.  I get confused by you illiterates.

So the last 20-something comments I wrote on whatever you felt the need to share with us "illiterates" get ignored and the one time it's really just a sarcastic remark you reply? Nice.

You don't want criticism or honestly look at yourself and your past and draw consequences to better yourself. You only wanna FEEL better ABOUT yourself. So you just pick that one part of your past that's been enjoyable by chance to revel in it and try to simply ingnore the other parts? Fuck, if that whole completely unnecessairy LA incident, and how you nearly fucked up a friendship over nothing in the aftermath, can't make you see that you need to work on yourself hard, I don't know what can.

But yes, by all means, just erase that memory. I wish you luck. But not too much, cause with that attitude you hardly deserve it.

no. if you think you know everything crawl under a rock to die.

you can always learn more , you can always learn to better yourself and your  life. except you think that there´s nothing wrong with you but the world and other people put you down.

a fear of growing up, that´s what eating you. refusing to learn new things and then whine about how things stay the same whenever you´re not travelling.

I promise I know way more than you, and I've sacrificed way more than you have for the deen.. and I got members of your own fam that can vouch that shit.  Most of what you know is what your mommy taught you when you were 6.  I learned from the ground up in spite of my own parents, and in spite of nobody else in my suburb being a Muslim, I made my own sacrifices.  I've been to Hajj and did Dawah Jammat Tabligh sleeping overnight in masjids all over the world from Emirates to West Africa.  I spoke in front of hundreds in masjids in the Emirates and Chicago.  I've had ten people convert and accept Islam after I gave them dawah and gave them Shahada.  You probably don't even know what Shahada is, is how little you know.  You can't even accomplish the most basic acts, like greeting a Muslim properly.  I've mentored new Muslims and old, I can recite more Qu'ran than you, guaranteed.  You can only recite what your mommy taught you when you were 6.  Under any metric or scale you want to come with it, I can show and prove on you.  Stay in your place, mama's boy!

...now go ask your mommy what "Shahada" means

Life is intended to be difficult. It's not supposed to be easy. You gotta prove what you're made of. Everybody struggles albeit in different manifestations. You are not unique in your struggle.

No, I am unique.  Have you ever seen anyone with the same fingerprints as me?  I am a first in the world...

...And life doesn't have to be difficult.  Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad.  Some people have lives that aren't difficult.  Don't make statements as if they are universal truths.

I don't have to prove anything to anyone.  What difference does it make if everyone struggles?  What are you implying by the comment that "everyone struggles"?  Are you implying that I shouldn't "complain" and that I should just live in denial or burry it deep inside, or accept it self-effacingly, or be hardened by it? 

Well you're always whining about how tough you have it, how life sucks etc. I'm just saying that for 99.9% of people, life is hard. It's always gonna be hard until the day you check out. You're not unique at having a tough life. So quit your bitching like you have it worse than everyone. You're responsible for whatever situation you're in whether you can admit that to yourself or not.

What you call "whining" I call "expressing".  If what I do is "whining" than most the 90's rappers are a bunch of "whiners".  Because I learned how to express myself through hip-hop and that's how a keep a clear head.  Shoving all those toxins in and not expressing it causes you to carry excess weight around.. like Petey  ;)

Back in high school when I didn't know how to express myself it lead to Somatization disorder.  Which is some serious shit.

smh you know nothing about islam bro...

I promise I know way more than you, and I've sacrificed way more than you have for the deen.. and I got members of your own fam that can vouch that shit.  Most of what you know is what your mommy taught you when you were 6.  I learned from the ground up in spite of my own parents, and in spite of nobody else in my suburb being a Muslim, I made my own sacrifices.  I've been to Hajj and did Dawah Jammat Tabligh sleeping overnight in masjids all over the world from Emirates to West Africa.  I spoke in front of hundreds in masjids in the Emirates and Chicago.  I've had ten people convert and accept Islam after I gave them dawah and gave them Shahada.  You probably don't even know what Shahada is, is how little you know.  You can't even accomplish the most basic acts, like greeting a Muslim properly.  I've mentored new Muslims and old, I can recite more Qu'ran than you, guaranteed.  You can only recite what your mommy taught you when you were 6.  Under any metric or scale you want to come with it, I can show and prove on you.  Stay in your place, mama's boy!

...now go ask your mommy what "Shahada" means
lol at my mom teaching me anything related to islam. I had to teach her how to pray when I was 12 becuase she forgot how to pray because she's not that religious. You know nothing about MY family. You just know one of my cousins and his parents that live in america, and siavash doesn't even consider himself muslim so I don't know what he has to do with this. I grew up in Iran bro and I've learned everything firsthand and in school. I know plenty of people that have went to hajj and they know the whole Quran by heart and I don't even consider them muslim because thats not what makes you a real muslim. I call you out because it's people like you who preach islam 24/7 yet they act in a manor in which no true muslim would. I don't claim to be the best muslim ever like you but I know for a fact that I'm more of a complete muslim than you. The Prophet (SA) would get spat on by kids and adults in the street and he would still go and leave money/food on there doorstep at night and smile at them even when they would curse at him in public because he knew they were under the influence of shatan and they didn't know any better. He would ask god to forgive them! That's how every real Muslim has to be like and take the high road but I haven't seen you do that once. IMO you see 2pac as more of a role model based on your actions more so then my Prophet. lol at saying all the good deeds you did to try and justify that you're a good Muslim, and referring to it as "shit" by saying they can "vouch for that shit" Astaghforollah smh. By the way A real Muslim shouldn't have to say how much they have sacrificed for God and his bandehs because that defeats the whole purpose. Peace.

good job contradicting yourself.. it was you who didn't take the "high road" and began taking low blows at me when I'd always treated you as a friend and brother.  And it was also you who showed arrogance and suggest that your a better Muslim than me.

This is all on you...  Only reason I mentioned your fam, is because you said I know nothing about Islam and I know about 10 names of family members of yours who could tell you to your face that I know more than you.  That's only from you suggesting I know nothing..

What low blow? The thread I made a while back about you tripping over nothing about My homie elior and changeez? If we were truly homies you would have brushed that off as a joke to seemingly break the tension that YOU built between you guys for making those thoughtless threads that you made while you were obviously under the influence of shaytan, going at your homies over nothing. How is it a low blow when I'm asking you how you can call yourself Muslim after reading that you said "I'm 30 years old. I've already learned enough in my life." when any real Muslim knows that you can never stop learning, and that the only all knowing entity is God that doesn't need learning. Almost all of Gods messengers became actual Prophets when they were in their late 30's early 40's because God knows that even if you're one of the most purest souls like My prophet Mohammad (SA) or any of the other hundreds of Gods messengers you have to have lived a certain amount of time to have reached a certain level of enlightenment to be able to say something like that, and I know that you haven't reached that to say that you've lived long enough to not learn anything. Just based on the fact that you are a walking contradiction on this forum makes me sick that you are giving my religion a bad name by acting the way you do towards everyone on here. I made it aware to the forum that you're not a real muslim because you are tarnishing my religion by acting the way you act on here 24/7 and saying you are acting as a Muslim. It's easy to be nice to people who are cool with you and you can't even do that by dissing lamb who's had your back thru thick and thin. A real Muslim is one who is able to smile in the face of people who do wrong by them and ask God to forgive them, not "go to war" with them how you say you will on here constantly to the "forum clowns". The constant bad attitude you have towards anybody that disagrees with you or the name calling that you resort to. I know for a fact that you don't know 10 of my relatives to vouch for you. Siavash doesn't consider himself Muslim and his dad doesn't really practice Islam and his mom is more into Buddhism now, so I don't know how you kicking it with ONE of my cousins from 8-9 years ago for a few months matters when I know more about you then them because I read everything you do or better yet every thought you have on here for the past decade. I always gave you the benefit of the doubt because I always try and see the good in people but you keep bringing up Islam and acting like a kafar every chance you get. I did say I don't' claim to be the best Muslim ever and I have flaws, but everyone does, the important thing is to accept those flaws and admit when you are wrong and try and learn from your mistakes and not keep getting bit by the same snake-hole (shaytan) over and over again. Every time you admit to being in the wrong you make a thread the next day contradicting it and that would be fine if it was a once in a blue moon type of thing, but this happens on the daily and it's been going on for a few years now. My final words for you Infinite are that I'll pray that you actually turn into the Muslim that YOU claim you are because it is hurtful to my Prophets religion for you to preach it but not practice it so blatantly as to where it sends out a wrong message about Islam to people if they were to think that YOU are a proper presentation of what this religion is all about, my brother.

...Funny how similar it is to my current life even though it was nearly 10 years ago.  Especially if you consider the hate I was receiving then from the forum and the hate I receive from co-workers, x-friends in my current life.
 A lot of parallels all around.
