riverdale series finale in less than a week

Young students greet the day with, "Oh no, it's morning already," and the week with, "Oh no, it's the beginning of the week already," and also sigh and say "Oh no, the vacation is over already". The repetition of the same day after day makes them feel depressed and wonder how long this will go on, and then they are shocked when they realize that this will continue even after they grow up.

Sakyamuni Buddha focused squarely on this sense of emptiness in life, and he clarified just why it is that we end up feeling that way.

The default state of life is darkness. This is what Buddhism teaches, and it calls that state ‘darkness of no-light’ or ‘darkness of mind’. All fields of human endeavour are constantly pouring their efforts into diverting our attention from this darkness of no-light—though of course, they can only ever temporarily succeed at this.

However much a person might claim to feel fulfilled, that question, “Why do we live?” lurks at the back of their mind, causing a vague sense of unease. Sakyamuni Buddha examined this question in earnest and stated definitively that there is a way to resolve this darkness of mind. Therefore, the answer to the question of “why we live” is precisely what Buddhism consists of.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
