• Thinking that you are multiple persons is not normal and not sane. It just isn't. Hurt feelings? Maybe. But insisting that a mental problem is not just OK but must be accepted as totally OK does not advance society, esp. if society advances based on information and facts rather than self-delusion and fantasy. Fantasies are 'fun', but they're an escape.

• "A key point in Paulo Coelho’s “The Alchimist” is that you can read meaning into the material world, as if it carried a conscious message for you — but you can lose that ability if you stop believing in and using it. When I deliver written reports, I tend to add quotes and allusions. I tend to describe banal events in sentimental terms. You see this in my writing. Someone once described it as “prone to enthusiasm”." gemini://dkalak.de/2024/how-to-live/be-sentimental.gmi
