do u think some people are cursed to not having their plans and ambitions solely go their way if they didn't became a 24/7 devotee of god. i feel like im one of those people who can't get anything done even through hardwork unless im begging and praying to god for it (even so, it doesn't turn out to be worth it). i feel so jealous of people who could care less about god, they're always the ones more successful and confident. im going insaneeeeee

I'm not sure. But your thoughts remind me of my own past when I used to think that the most religious people were also most successful. As if they were rewarded for their practice and rituals.

If not God, person believes in some other idea or image. I couldn't bring myself to believe in God, but eventually I started believing in psyche and devote myself to studying the psyche.

Hopefully your confusion is a sign you will find your answer someday. Not all those who wander are lost.

Unfulfilled Desires?

One of the biggest lessons I learned as an adult was the reality of unfulfilled desires. It was something that I'd never dreamt as a possibility. I thought that if you feel it deeply and work towards it, your desires will come true. Or just living in the future will make the desire happen. Or feeling it all over your body and your intuition and seeing coincidences is proof that your desires will come true. Unfulfilled desires are like empty buckets, they may be filled someday so the wait keeps perpetuating.

Despite knowing people in external world who lived with unfulfilled desires, unreached potential and unaccomplished goals, I, for some reasons, thought that I was exceptional and different. I do not mean to say that one must live in misery, frustration and depression all the time. Some door opens when others are closed..

What I mean is that this concrete reality of 'unfulfilled desires' is something we don't talk much about. Sometimes it feels like the unfulfilled desires are socially silenced to the extent that a person buries and curls themselves up into a symbolic ball. So that nobody can see their unfulfilled desires and aspirations, and consequently gaze at their vulnerability aka emotional nakedness.

But maybe if we talk about it... Or perhaps it's better if we don't?
