Here is a real question of the day. Can you ever truly feel or understand the way someone else feels exactly?

Sure we may be able to relate or be as open to any concept but have you really asked yourself while really looking at a person. Not so much "I wonder what they are thinking..." But more "how are they thinking about it I wonder?" The easy concept or example id have is probably convincing someone something was blue or green? You could keep the colors but make it on a different perspective entirely. How on earth do you think you could ever prove to someone something was a 'color' if they were blind and didnt know what color was? You suppose they think about colors the same way? When you turn it into boiled water, you saying the word color to someone blind might just be you making noise and giving it a purpose. I feel its often good to "boil stuff down to water" because usually it allieviates being upset and any part of the universe. It could even be a good tool to fight nihilistic views that come with being realmy aware of reality and us as a thing that exists for no good reason other than To make up what we all collectively see together. Upon the final compkexity added to the example of color and us humans. How easy is it for you to understand that the color pink doesnt exist outside of humans? We supposedly just are able to percieve it and it doesnt exist outside of 'us'(humans) With all you sort of "know" as a basic person about what color is how it exist in the world. Do you perhaps find yourself taking such knowledge and archiving with difficulty? Do you see yourself enjoying piecing such puzzle of understanding the universe together and revel in the additional info that you feel expanded your way of thinking? How far do you feel you can understand what our existence is as a fact and what alot as water might just seem like us inherently trusting us as humans. I reckon I could see the comfortable accident of what we percieve and even if you have a good soul that wont help you if you cant truly understand one of the many exestential loops you can find yourself in where such a topic seems crazy or really vast in its open generality or broad vagueness but in an instant it is easily all compacted into the very easy though or concept that sure you might've learned something about the world or feel all this is pointless. So the question as boiled water would be You have all this knowledge on color but will it help you truly understand the way a sighless person thinks about the topic of color? Do you suppose they would have a rough time relating to your weird passion and getting upset at their uninspired response to a sound that we call a word that they can never relate to?? People are just people we are a contradiction to what we are one might say. We should appreciate the concepts that help us grow closer and understand why life is a never ending struggle to fathom. We should accept that we made up everything we are doing right now, we created our own evolutionary gradient of sorts and now look at us. Making fancy sounds with our mouths and convinving other its meaningful and stuff. Its a weird way to look at stuff but the point of being a good reapectful considerate human that gets inevitably lost when wanting to understand the world due the nihilistic curse attached. Be a paladin of sorts! Know that being a good human is indeed pointless which should mean doing bad has a point then? Again though Is it possible to know if they truly understand morality as you do? You can listen to their explanation all you want but unless you can simply flooded with whatever level of emotion they have in their heart about whatever is in their head about something you care about enough to wonder how they feel about said thing then you are just left wondering just how specific and all the various real(s) that come with "I wonder what so and so is thinking about?" "I wondering whats going on in their head" πŸ™‡β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜ͺ apologies, but if anything let this nonsense prove my point that you can see I have a strong opinion of things but the emotional feeling of what drives me to think or speak so passionately about these topics is quite easily lost because you know not of pain or strife or you are tougher in emotionally shouldring the pain or stomaching trivial traumas life imposes. Understanding why you proccess it your way is what is important to me and anyone trying to improve something as pointless as consideration. Its hard work I agree, but if youd rather a different task then you try the equally as difficult task of living with no hypocrisy. Question for another day: Can you live in a life containing no hypocrisy? Does it perhaps change how you view the topic and its sort of nature to the world

Exactly? No. It's impossible. Even if you go through the same exact experience, you aren't the same person, you will experience feelings differently. Experiences and feelings are completely unique to everyone. If by some chance even if they are 99.999% similar, it's not the same. You could put yourself through the same exact thing as someone else and even if it plays out the same, it's not. Because all their life experiences or lack there of will influence how they process those events, that's just one factor, there are many, too many to replicate an exact feeling. For human existence, I like the quote from Rick and Morty, "Nobody belongs anywhere, nobody exists on purpose, everybody's going to die."

Neuro science of guilt and emotional health.

There is no shame in asking for forgiveness; shame is the mask we wear when we silence what aches inside us. To say β€˜I’m sorry’ is often an escape hatch β€” a way to dust off the guilt without ever touching its substance. But regret does not bloom from emptiness. Regret is the shadow cast by guilt,...
