I have come to realize that life is all about being street smart and having a network that you both mutually benefit.
As I Age…Buddha the wise…makes sense
Nirvana…
Buddha…says…don’t age like an ox…(Ng’ombe)…
though a man may grow old…he ages like an ox…if he does not learn and listen to the wise
But you have to be wise to identify a wise person to listen to…right?
So, you essentially have a chicken and egg problem.
Logic yako…na Buddha… u wiser lolz
Any way he says…
don’t waste your time with fools…if a man can not teach you anything…you are better of alone than in a company of fools
But if you meet the wise…
The problem with Africans in general is that a vast majority are like you. You believe all bullshiett that you read without asking questions. I asked a valid question. It’s easy to give some mainstream advice like “listen to the wise” but how would a stupid person know who to listen to in the first place??
Sometimes I am 180 degrees wrong, but I don’t shy away from asking questions.
Growth iis all about learning…morphing…adapting…
I think you should try and reconcile yourself with aristocratic values - a position in the world, sex, intellectual mastery, & creativity. Anything else is pure cope

As I grow older, I have come to realize that the internet is one big marketing finesse.
Everything is designed to influence your buying habits starting with this very forum. It is an extension of the matrix.
That’s how the internet engine stays alive - through sales.
That free blog you read, youtube channel you follow, influencer you like, etc is part of the machine and is incentivized by sales dollars.
We are way past this era. You have to experience rather than observe.

Kweli…wisdom is for the few…
It takes a whole lifetime to even get to wisdom…living 100 years max in a billion aged earth…less than a dot u are
Man exists in time for but a spark in the universe…only a fool can try understand for a less a second…relatively…what has been there for billions of ages in an infinite universal space…where even earth ain’t a speckle on the universe…the sun ain’t even isht :rolleyes:…where both time n space collapse…
bonobo can’t understand for sure
If you look at life on such a macro scale, it becomes meaningless and unaanza kucheza territory ya nihilism
Optimistic Nihilism 101
Since nothing matters in the grand scheme of things then I might as well do that which fulfils me. Only the individual knows/can decide what fulfils them.
