“Serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin, and endorphins are famously happy hormones that promote positive feelings like pleasure, happiness, and even love.”‡

Sometimes I reckon I’m a living experiment on what happens when none of these hormones work anymore.

Sometimes it’s a living nightmare without the ability to feel scared enough to run away… where would I run to anyway?

Physically I think I’m stuck, in reality it’s my mind that is stuck.

Ruminating on what I had, what I can’t get, and what I don’t want to happen.

Ruminating is what happens when over analysis is employed, know the mind of peace and be protected from rumination.

Can I still experience pleasure, happiness and even love?

I still experience these things, I just don’t desire them anymore, they are fleeting in comparison to mental peace.

Peace of mind is what we need, not politicians trying to treat us like slaves most of the time and give us shiny things once every 4-5 years.

Listen to those that show peace of mind, not media outlets controlled by billionaires.

Catch the anger before it breaks free, not like leaders who crave so much they will kill for it.

Breath and watch your breath it’s both a barometer to your state of mind, and a controllable method to guide the mind towards peace.

Thoughts pass by like clouds in the sky,

Made of no more substance that the concept of air,

Watch them fade away into the blue emptiness of the clear sky,

Nothing but a clear sky and peace of mind.
