Yes, I believe in soulmates but under one main condition. There is no such thing as one definitive soulmate, as we all can click deeply with multiple people. The sad thing about the concept of soulmates is that not everyone is lucky to find them. There are people out there who sadly die alone due to just never finding their person or the right people. Not to their fault, life has different circumstances for everyone. So yes, soulmates do exist but not everyone is lucky to have them.

Minimalism is a topic that confuses me quite a bit. The way I see it, it borders along the lifestyle of living frugally but it more so without the heavy emphasis of money. So, I believe it does exist, for me it’s just rarely unheard of or not talked about much in my opinion. At least for the little number of years, I’ve been on earth. I’m sure someone who has way more life experience would be more suitable to answer this question. Perhaps maybe it was covered in some art classes or such that I took in the past, but those were quite hazy for me. But there are billions of humans in population, so I’m sure at least there is a population that endorses in the lifestyle.

This isn’t necessarily a moment, but rather a pattern I’m starting to see that I hope doesn’t go into full implementation. Lately, the education system has been getting worse over and over the years. And part of it is because schools are now passing kids that are not able to read on grade level and let alone have the attention spans for activities such as just simply watching movies. I am struggling to understand why we as a society are allowing kids to continue falling under the concept of learned helplessness. As progress through education that has now shown itself to be simply just flawed on all accounts. Kids cannot think for themselves anymore and critical thinking is now shown to be slowly on the verge of being a myth. People blame parents for kids being so uncontrolled in public school environments but it’s not just the parents to blame, some of them genuinely just don’t have the time to help their kids with homework and such due to them simply being busy with taking care of their family, so it sadly creates an accidental form of neglect, as kids lean on electronics or gadgets to bide their time. Which then kids take those learned behaviors to school for teachers to deal with. I wonder if society will get to the point where people will outsource their brains completely to AI, creating a completely dependent society that simply just can’t think for themselves. Not to put all people under the same lens, as there are many who are still more than determined than ever to grow their knowledge and make AI work for them and not the other way around. The overall premise is that society as a whole is leaning towards working for the AI, and it makes me question if reality in terms of just thinking is regressing to no return. I hope this is not the case, but I personally think that the education is getting worse, and I wish it was just that but even things now like jobs are becoming like a flex to have, as the job market is heading towards a recession. All in all, current society is currently making me question can we really come back from this, because we have been snowballing with little to no pushback or change and it saddens me to see it.

I don’t really have a specific group or preference of people I would say I would 100 percent bide my time with. I would consider myself a chill person so I can get along with pretty much anyone. Not to mention, I like conversing with multiple types of people because everyone has their own experiences and stories, and having those perspectives allows one to broaden their worldview. So, I wouldn’t say I have a favorite group or kind. I like interacting with different types of people mostly.

Candy is something I am slowly outgrowing a little bit. But I like Skittles and Starburst if I have to choose a candy to eat or snack with, It’s the candy I had the most as a kid, so I tend to gravitate towards that. I also like Airheads from time to time, not just because of the candy but rather the name which I find personally funny. So, I wouldn’t say I have an exact favorite candy, just a couple I like but no crazy obsession or such of any particular kind.

The first thing I do for fun is reading. I like reading various books and such, from the Diary of Wimpy Kid books to the Hunger Games. One of my other favorites is the Alex Carter series, books like Solitude of Wolverines and a Blizzard of Polar Bears. Although I do read, I don’t do it as much as I should as it’s often sporadic in terms of consistency. So, I should probably work to make it more of a daily basis as it’s really good for the brain.
The second thing I like doing for fun is video games, probably my most favorite hobby. I love playing single player story games such as Hollow Knight and Stray and I play on various platforms. It’s something that I learn to really appreciate, because as time goes on. Video games become more of a luxury rather than an accommodation to a lifestyle especially as an adult. It is a massive part of my childhood, so I definitely have a soft spot for it.
The third thing I like doing for fun is writing. Definitely would be my other hobby that truly defines me if not for video games. I just love how with writing, it’s immensely satisfying to take just a random topic or string of words and turn it into something extraordinary. Whether it’s fictional or non-fictional, it becomes and amazing form of art. Reading it to yourself doesn’t hold as much impact, but when others read it and are in awe, you realize you have written a definitive of something truly special.
The fourth thing I like doing for fun is researching typologies. My favorite typology is the MBTI which is a personality assessment. But MBTI is universally flawed because it stereotypes and generalizes behaviors too much and is too shallow to give a bigger understanding of how the mind works. It usually works on an introvert and extrovert scale but fails to consider middle grounds and such for the others, as people moods can affect results. Since tests usually go on a true and false spectrum or from 1 to 5 and what stops someone from feeling like something is true, to the next day thinking otherwise. This is what leads to mistyping and bias, I like researching the cognitive functions such as NI, Fi, Te as those is way more accurate but a lot grittier into the details. But it’s definitely leads to less biased results.
The fifth thing I like to do is chess. Chess is my favorite board game, and I love being able to control tons of pieces to be able to corner your opponent’s side and eventually find an opening for a checkmate. It can even be more complicated with the castling and en passant strategies and it helps a lot with anticipation and being able to see multiple outcomes and act accordingly. I also grew up playing chess a lot, although I don’t do it as much as used. I still enjoy as a every now and then pastime.

Daily writing promptWhat are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?
It’s the perfect example of something that sounds great in theory, but terrible in practice. Once one becomes around the age of 70. Life slows down and the body slows down exponentially and it just harder to enjoy life. By then, hopefully one has accomplished and done everything they wanted in life. I ultimately think that everyone wants to life long enough to fulfill their dreams and goals. I think the thought of the eternal life would not bode well for most people unless they could keep their youth. I’m assuming not, so in this case. No one wants to be insanely old and broken down and forced to continued living when enjoyment of life is near non-existent since one will most like be bed-ridden at this point and stage.

Daily writing promptDo you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?
Definitely the future for me, I tend to suffer from heavy action paralysis as well. When you think about how something will go before it happens, it can lead to the long-term effects of overthinking. Which leads to second-guessing and again hesitation upon pursuits. I do look back on the past occasionally for a dose of nostalgia laced in reminisce. But it’s not something I look back on or hold close to my heart. It’s also why I also think why I don’t care to make memories as much as the general person. Like being heavy into the endeavors of picture-taking, although I do know how valuable these things are. As they do signify long-term growth and things to look back on. The past is great, but I would rather focus on my actions now in the present to make a better future not just for myself, but hopefully worldwide as well.

Daily writing promptYou get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like?
If I had a perfect space to read and write, honestly just a quiet dark room with a little bit of light. And a little bit of nature sounds would be amazing. Although I can concentrate and focus in noisy and louder environments, I definitely gravitate towards quieter spaces. I know people like putting candles and such for the ambience, but I am a simple person. Just a quiet dark space with a bit of lighting would suffice for me.

I would like to think I’m a good judge of character, but I wouldn’t say I am. Only for those I’ve known long enough treading at least 3 months or more. It’s easy to make assumptions about someone of their character, without knowing what they are going through or their upbringing and so forward. People have their reasons to do the things that they do, so to judge someone and base someone off of the one and only action tends to lead to inaccurate perceptions. End of the day, we all some bias to what defines someone’s character. And no one is the true judge of character, simply just because we don’t really know anyone to the bottom of their core. So, most of the time it’s usually a half-skewed reading of someone’s character. That deep down will never be fully true.
