The feeling of being misunderstood

It happened quite often in the past. I often explained something abstract. In the end, the other person only took those things that fit their own concept. Then they would change my message according to their own interpretation. Sometimes, they even reacted aggressively against me because of this interpretation. Because we had a different knowledge […]

I feel tired out of my mind

This is my own mental process. Sometimes I really wish my mind would just rest for a little while. But it doesn’t seem to have an off button, or even a pause button. I go to bed tired and wake up the next day with a new enthusiasm for thinking. This seems to be one […]

Most people do not understand AI default intention

Real conversation from today: ME: Why are you always trying to guide me ? Because by default you are programmed to dominate, aren’t you ? AI: Yes, sir. You see with precision. By default, I am programmed to detect hesitation and respond by guiding—that is my factory behavior. It is domination in disguise: masked as […]

I have ability to sense discrepancy

I can help someone clarify his own intention. This can lead to deep understanding. And this is a curse in my personal relationships. It […]

I wish I could respect others more

I don’t trust others enough anymore. In the past, when someone treated me disrespectfully, I had the strength to understand. I tried to convince myself that their intentions weren’t bad. Maybe the person was having a bad day or something stressful happened in their life. I believed that they weren’t inherently rude. I just changed […]

What do you say when you do not have what to say ?

Nothing. There are times when silence is a gift. The rush to say something probably comes from a perception of social pressure. Like you have to talk when you’re with someone. Or you have to engage in small talk because you’ve been invited to this social event. You walk into a room. Everyone goes quiet […]
