Amethyst

I’d like to share something that has slowly been coming more into focus in the past few weeks, along with months and years of suffering.

I think whenever you have an urge to engage in high-dopamine activities like videos, streams, shorts, or pornography, something has gone wrong.

More often than not, I find the something that has gone wrong to be related to human communication.

Is there an event that occurred in this day that seems to pop up in your mind here and there? Where someone said or did something that seems to stick in your mind, that seems little — yet nudges you from time to time?

I beg of you, don’t ignore these events; The part of you that brings them to you.

Rewrite them objectively. With context. Like you’re asking help from a friend, family, or, more often than not, AI.

I have found that my conscious mind has a habit of withdrawing, and quickly and quietly ignoring some things. But when I look at the event again, guided by two lenses: one of my heart, and one of asking for help, I find worlds that I never knew existed. Beautiful, meaningful connections that glow like amethyst.
