You need to figure out what is absolutely important to you and what you can only get in a partner vs what you could get elsewhere. Sex, obviously should not be something you get elsewhere. The more things you say your partner needs to have, the smaller the eligible population and as a result the smaller the odds of finding a partner. Go where you can find people who share the same qualifications you require - for many that’s a church/temple/synagogue/mosque. For others it’s from a similar ethnic community.

Yes that’s right. This is the verse-

गोपीभाग्यमधुव्रात-शृङ्गिशोदधिसन्धिग॥ खलजीवितखाताव गलहालारसंधर॥

Writing Is Hard 4 years ago

Writing can be hard because sometimes we put up barriers to our thoughts, to our level of “what’s good enough”, to what is appropriate or PC to talk about, etc.

I think that’s why many great writers were alcoholics - it takes down the barriers we set up within and gives us the “liquid courage” to just say something and not give a s*it.

It is less the death of the office and more the death of work. We just haven’t come to admit that. Death of work and “cold” relationships and the retreat to home, emotional connection, nurturing, caring. Once employers know it’s more about that and less about work then we will see things turn around.

Taking the kids out for ice cream

Drinking a good cappuccino with a croissant after a hard workout in the early morning

Swimming alone in the pool/ocean and just enjoying being alive

Going on a hike in the forest on magic mushrooms

Making music with my friends
