is being intelligent a curse?

Ehh.....Depression sometimes is people who are actually too weak to change things they can control. Not all depression is actual brain malfunction. Some people just aren't equipped to handle life.

How can it be that the person is weak or ill equipped for life...could it be possible that the circumstances surrounding a depressed person may be a tad overwhelming?

Im pretty sure its a case by case basis

Surely you must agree

I find myself wondering more about the universe, my place in it, the earth and it's history. By earths history I'm referring more on the lines of the geologic scale and extinction events. I wholly subscribe to the Gaia hypothesis and truly believe the earth is a living organism. As I ponder these things I find that I have little to no interest in the mindless shyt that people lately are so obsessed with; namely reality shows, politics, religion, Facebook and stupid dealings on twitter. As the years go by it seem like the sheep become more mindless. Has my solipsistic view of this world detached me from its unnecessary dealings? I'm still trying to make sense of that.

Maybe...and maybe not.

There are many influences and sources, but I refuse to believe EVERYONE has a broken brain.

Some people just can't cope and face internal strife about how to reconcile things.

Life for the average human has changed drastically in the last 100 years...its understandable if not everyone can adapt to these changes and faces some strife about how to address these inconsistencies.

my grandmother was a teacher for over 40 years. when i went to college i was feeling myself and thought i was that dude. kind got out of sorts in family discussions sometimes. she pulled to the side one day and said..."as you get older and have more commonsense knowledge, book smarts and life experience you'll eventually grasp the idea that the more you know, the more you realize you don't know". i've heard that in other settings since, but when i first heard it i thought that was just some old head double talk. looking back on it later on it was really a humbling experience because i started to understand it.

i understand the ignorance is bliss thought process and it's true that knowledge can be intimidating....but only if you let it imo. having the knowledge that there are things we don't know and can't do anything about can be paralyzing to some people. focusing on what we don't know and what we can't do anything about leads to despair and indifference. instead we have to stay passionate about what we can control in our daily lives, the people that are important to us, and establishing goals and working to achieve them. just my .02...

Life is a gift at the end of the day, and anyone that doesn't understand that is being childish. Can't have the highs without the lows. I also feel bad for people that don't want to have kids because that's one of the reason that makes it worth it at the end of that journey.

the world is so much fun when you stop givin a shyt.

..........don't think so much. just live
i actually admire ppl with this thinking of "not giving a shyt" ppl who could care less about what others think and etc. ive always been a shy introverted type person and while ive come to the realization that this is just how i am and im fine with it, deep down i wish i could be one of those outgoing type ppl who jus dont give a fukk. ive gotten better since ive relocated tho and have started being a lil more outgoing and approaching women more frequently :win:
