rosy, I find your point of the "other" to be quite ponder-worthy . And I agree... I see this in others, normal people (unrelated to sorcery) who, after some years, find they have wasted their time on something and that they should have done something else etc. I find that this 'other' that is often not properly formed and it holds some fragment of a dream. This is not really good for a person, it can actually get a piece of them to be locked in it. So, yea, sometimes these people get locked and can't move forward all too well enough, they can become resentful and dissatisfied. It may be a hard spot to move from if that happens.
One needs to be able to have compassion for oneself and one's spirit. And, yes, following one's heart, spirit, etc. should not lead to one thinking they wasted their time because if one does what feels right in the moment.... then there is not much more a person can do. One can regret not being wiser or more knowledgeable etc, but in the moment of being who one was in that moment, one needs to recognize that one did the best one could.
What is the difference anyway? I see people already in retirement age pondering if they had wasted their life - working working and paying their payments and all of that and never thinking of their soul and spirit. 00000 at least thought of it and tried. One way or another people might have regrets or wonder if something else would have lead to a better path.
Whether I die a millionaire or I die poor - I die. Whether I have lived as a scientist, a teacher, a barkeeper - I die. Whether I collected stamps or devoted myself to the art of proper poops - I die. At the end what does it matter? Most of all one needs to do what one feels to be right and what one enjoys and what helps one grow - ideally they will be all coupled together lol. And hone the ability to feel what is what more accurately .

Kao, that is not what I read in rosy's post. I wonder in which part you figured rosy is saying that
is it that you understood that rosy's friend. who has a house, was in a place that is superficial and cannot support him and that he cannot be himself there?

00000, I hope you find something more fulfilling for yourself. Good luck and best wishes on your path.
