The original Lisbeth Salander from the european movies!
Truffle
Back when chatrooms were a thing, me as an edgy teenager, wanted something that I thought made me appear dark and mysterious so I chose Der teufel (the devil) as my handle. Most people couldn't read it properly and called me Truffle instead and I embraced it happily.
Bad habit I got from other social media I guess.
Waited along hundreds of people for six + hours to get the cov1d vaccine.
Whenever I come across a person in one of those driving school vehicles, I take my time to be extra nice to them and helping them a bit in a way.
What an interesting experience! Thanks for sharing. What a beatiful thing is to appreciate simple things. My now husband went through something I think similar to what you've described while practicing judo. He was a competitive judoka for many years and while the physical part was important, the spiritual part about living in a dojo and all that it entails, made a deep impression on how he lives his life and permeated a bit into mine in a way.
Yes you are correct. It takes a while getting used to that "empty" mindset. I don't know what else to call it.
Whoa! That is something I would love to do some day. How was your experience in such a place?
When I started my journey what helped me the most, was yoga. The movement along with breathing properly made me feel so whole and complete that I haven't stopped since.
Yup. Hypervigilance is like a super power that you can never ever turn off. Therapy and mindfulness help tons but it can get super tiring.
Oh god! That and the coconut guy scarred me for life.
Suburban housewives trying to learn a new language through osmosis. It is discouraging to be in a group where noone does the work and tries to actually learn instead thinking that paying for something is enough to master x or y.
Got tired and left.
I am guilty of some of those preference bits. Like the mustard, ketchup, etc made me chuckle because I can taste a difference or maybe a texture change throws me off. Pulpless Orange Juice? No way! I come from a house where my mom, grandma aunts and uncles can cook professionally a variety of different cuisines and make most of things from scratch, which is exhausting IMHO but to each their own.
Go camping on saturday. I feel so tired of noise and cars and all of it. I need silence and nature and being in the big outdoors for a bit.
