@retoor Yeah, it was ostream
Sometimes trolls troll each other without noticing that the other one is a troll. -
@retoor yup, I agree

To the best of my knowledge, all of the Four Books teach forgiveness. But one does not simply "forgive themselves"; they don't wield the power to will their guilt away but to fool themselves and even fool the rest: they cannot wash away the stain, save that they first cease their transgressions and wash their hands instead, so as to turn to God in full submission to His will.
As for what Vainilla here has done: he took to spewing vile to everything and everyone, under the cover of anonimity like the coward that he is, and somehow expects that "forgiving himself" is sufficient repentance. It is not. Were it up to me, he would be banned.
But if he behaves, I will be a good sport, and make a point not to slap him. -
@retoor Party hard. https://youtube.com/watch/...
Perhaps banning is a bit extreme. But there's a fine balance to strike, eh. One can't be lenient towards malice.
In order to function well, you must ensure your basic needs are being met. Like sleeping well, eating well, resting well. Otherwise we derail.
Paradoxically, self love results in loving others. Because we are functioning well, we behave. I guess it's just my case. Whatever problems I have, chronically being stressed or tired just overdrives it.
I need to be really careful on how to I treat others, especially my loved ones. Strange, how I treat people I work with nicely and professionally. But in reality, these people are not even my friends.
Also a wise man on devRant said "Forgive yourself and study zen scriptures. Find solace in nature and serve others." Since I deleted the rant, I don't remember who it was. Anyway, thank you. Also, thank all of your comments of raw feedback. It really helps me think and reflect on myself and actions.
The best value I can give others is by not being there. That's how I felt at work and in society, weird times.
Recently, going to gym and sleeping early made me look way better. I'm thankful for that. And coming to work early everyday and managing work-life made me feel like I'm doing well.
