In the western world, our understanding of karma is largely misconception. Karma is actually very simple: it is the result of your actions. So if you do good, you feel good :)   Try not to be so...|||First of all, slut-shaming is not cool. You're judging this woman based on one time that you saw her... you have no idea what her life is like or how many men she's slept with. Furthermore, even if...|||Depends how I get high... if I vape, take dabs or use edibles I usually feel pretty good: happy, not at all couch-locked and sometimes super creative. If I'm smoking out of a pipe or bong I usually...|||I attempted suicide when I was in high school. My father cheated on my mother, my mother left, and my world turned upside down. I was already depressed and dealing with an eating order and self-harm...|||Hmm, it's pretty difficult to argue with an INFP (or anyone, for that matter) who has made up his or her mind. Sorry to say, but I don't see much you can do except hope your friend eventually decides...|||http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO5XB8BEORs&list=PL1ED0378889D70E49|||My favorite band is The Doors, and my favorite musician is Lights :)  I suspect Lights is an INFP, maybe an ENFP... Not sure about the members of The Doors, though.  This isn't technically a...|||I had a dream I went to New Zealand on vacation, which was pretty sweet until giant gorillas started terrorizing everyone. I think I have a fear of gorillas now...|||From the master himself! :)|||http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdFMpSWcHfM|||This may be posted in the wrong place; if so, I apologize!

It makes me feel strong and also helps to release a lot of the anger and sadness I've been feeling.|||I'm short, pale, dark-haired and I'm slim, but by no means a twig. This bothered me a lot in middle school and high school, but I've gotten to the point where I'm generally happy with the way I look....|||I have terrible commitment issues, and I'm sure that it at least partially stems from the fact that my dad cheated on my mom. I was also in a verbally abusive relationship where I was constantly cut...|||Just found out that my friend, who I've had a crush on for going on 3 years now, liked me while I was dating my ex.  What. the. fuck. life?|||This is beautiful in its poignancy. First of all, I am so, so sorry. I feel your pain. I recently had to sever ties with a soulmate as well. It's like you said... it's nearly impossible to break off...|||Not me! But yes she is haha|||All it has ever done is piss me off and convince me that I am better off without that person in my life.|||The hype over December 21st has little (I would even go so far as to argue nothing) to do with true spirituality. Many religions have strayed so far from the grains of truth they were built around...|||Why must you be so attractive and perfect and wonderful? Why must people assume that we're dating and ask me about it? Why is it that every other guy I meet has a crush on me and you, the only one...|||http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZeaIvjoH1FY|||Everything is such a struggle lately.|||Haha, there are pictures of it on the INFP pictures thread! :P I don't want it on my avatar just in case someone I know in real life wanders into PerC one day.  I haven't told him yet, but I'm...|||Writing, drawing, playing guitar (badly... I just started). Creative pursuits make life worth living.  Oh, and tea. And cats :)|||I want him to come back.|||Pretty sure you're fucking her right now.  Also pretty sure that I'm in your head, however fleeting your thoughts of me may be.|||Thank you! Yes, it's me in my avatar :) The picture in my signature is a still from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.|||Hello all! I've known this ESTP for years and I have a pretty big crush on him. It seems like he likes me too, but I really can't tell, and I'm getting sick of waiting for him to do something. What's...|||http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0BWlvnBmIE|||For me, they're two sides of the same coin. I feel that lot of my creativity comes from a spiritual place, and I incorporate spiritual elements into some of my work. I've written poetry about...|||Alright, I'm done feeling sorry for myself! I told you we can't be friends, I deleted your number, I deleted all the pictures of us together, I blocked you on Facebook... I'm going to use this pain...|||I didn't think I would ever be suicidal again. It's been years.  I dream of not existing, of being one with the earth.  I'm going back to therapy. I need to learn to let people love me.|||Thank you. It means a lot, really.|||Thank you <3 I've been doing all of that. It gets easier each day but sometimes it's unbearable, mainly at night.|||I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't stop crying. I hate you for doing this to me.  How am I supposed to function when all I think about is the two of you together, and how you're happy without me?|||I spend Valentine's day with you and then find out you spent the next night with another girl.  I asked you to choose and you chose her.  I cannot do this. I am completely broken and you are just...|||I'm hoping all your tests come back negative. My friend had that for years... Just recently got rid of it. It's nasty. Best of luck <3|||KindOfBlue06 and SpiritedAstray  First of all, thank you both for taking the time to read all of that and respond. It means a lot. You're both right. I'm not sure exactly how obvious I've been... I...|||I'm just going to warn you ahead of time that this is whiny, poorly written, and full of angst.  So, I'm head over heels for my ESTP friend and I have this nagging feeling that he may feel the same...|||Hmm... I don't visit it much anymore except in my dreams, mainly because I'm trying to be in the moment now and find magic in the real world :)   I do love it there though, lots of unicorns,...|||Violet, crystal and yellow.

It's called being an empath :) Once you begin developing your gift (through meditation, grounding yourself, and...|||I used to have this problem! Not anymore, though :) Obviously I still have bad days but they're easier to deal with.  What changed for me is that I started meditating.

Well today she confronted me...|||First of all, just a forewarning: this is going to be part rant, part me asking for advice. But it's mostly going to be a rant because I truly need to get this out of my system.  I live with the...|||Will the world end? I mean, I guess it could, but it could end any day, really. I doubt it :)  However, I've heard a lot about there being a shift in consciousness toward a more loving world. I...|||I recently got a job doing therapy with children who have autism. It's challenging but worth it, and I much prefer it over my old job (serving at a restaurant).
