reaction to Mark Manson writing

The reality of his words makes experiences less painful and the future brighter...we attribute the meaning to the pain, if pain is inevitable, make the meaning something you can move on with. I've created a science about deciphering meaning, with conclusions that vary a scale from meaningless to uncontrollably unknown but ultimately it is all your perception, so attribute as you will. Each person being their own magic trick, an illusion to themselves. I remember when I watched the doors at 16 and thoughts around whether you could alter the physical through perception. Because my perception is so fluid the lines of reality look like a mirage but the atomical science is fixed. Living in the mirage means walking the path of uncertainty constantly, viewing all the varied perceptions of one line of action and the multiple lines that form the blurred mirage that is my future.
