What happens when your worldview changes? Firstly, what has it changed to? Has it changed to a more optimistic view or pessimistic viewpoint for example?

Hello, Darkness, My Old Friend
It closes in with every passing day, I try to flee its grasp, but I cannot getaway. No matter what I do it consumes me bit by bit, Nihilism grows, creating more conflict. The search for happiness seems so futile, It has escaped me now for quite some while. I grow tired and stop to…
Tales from the Underground
I sit amongst the masses and find nothing in common with them. I am treated with contempt when I approach a checkout counter. When I ask a simple question, I am given an argumentative response.

Perceiving is Believing (Updated)
Delving into more works of the Stoics, I have solved a major enigma. Life is completely about how we use our minds to perceive our current conditions. The first aspect of this practice is living in the present and not lamenting so much about the past nor fretting about the future. This is an incredibly…
