  2. A quotation from Thomas Carlyle

    Money? He will say: “Take my money, since you can, and it is so desirable to you; take it, — and take yourself away with it; and leave me alone to my work here. I am still here; can still work, after all the money you have taken from me!” But if they come to him, and say, “Acknowledge a Lie; pretend to say you are worshipping God, when you are not doing it: believe not the thing that you find true, but the thing that I find, or pretend to find true!” He will answer: “No; by God’s help, no! You may take my purse; but I cannot have my moral Self annihilated. The purse is any Highwayman’s who might meet me with a loaded pistol: but the Self is mine and God my Maker’s; it is not yours; and I will resist you to the death, and revolt against you, and, on the whole, front all manner of extremities, accusations and confusions, in defence of that!”

    Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) Scottish essayist and historian
    Lecture (1840-05-22), “The Hero as King,” Home House, Portman Square, London

  3. This is What #Avoidant People Wish You Knew

    You want to let people in—truly, you do—but every time #closeness feels too real, something inside whispers, be careful. For those who feel avoidant, #connection is both the thing they crave and the thing that terrifies them most. It’s not #coldness; it’s #selfprotection shaped by fear of #rejection, #pastwounds, and #emotions that sometimes feel too big to carry.

  13. Ночь
    Я размышляю о смысле жизни, её целях и причинах, а также о том, какова цель 'я', если ты умрёшь.
    Если сознание 'я' ограничено телом и вынуждено принудительно соответствовать правилам реальности, и при этом у нас есть защита от самоуничтожения, то, возможно, жизнь можно рассматривать как своеобразное заключение в тюрьме.
    Мысли про сознание 'я'.

    English:
    "I contemplate the meaning of life, its goals and reasons, as well as the purpose of 'self' when one dies. If the 'self' is constrained by the body and compelled to conform to the rules of reality, all while having protection from self-destruction, then life can perhaps be viewed as a peculiar confinement in a prison. Thoughts on the 'self'."

  17. If someone calls claiming to be from your financial institution - even if they sound very much like what you'd expect from a bank and say that it's an urgent matter - ask them for a case reference number and tell them you'll call them back at the 1-800 number on the bank's website.

    The fraudsters are really out in force at the moment.
