I haven't reached that balance yet, but I think I'm better than I've been in years past.
I think I'm like 5% better.
I dunno how many people out there are celibate... especially by choice. But it's a topic that is really pertinent to me because I just really think celibacy is the right approach to take in the world right now.
Shit, today I was at the store and there was this babychild screaming like it was poh-zessed. You could hear it across the store and it was LITERALLY demonic style screaming, legitimately never heard anything like it before. It was hardcore...
And I was thinking, man, THANK GOD I don't have children. I thank God almost daily for this, just whenever I remember.
With the state of society, with the totally lax moral state of most people, the hedonism, the unhealthy habits and behaviors, addictions of all kinds, the lying, the scamming that goes on just among everyday people...
You'd have to know somebody for like 10 years before you should ever consider reproducing with them. You'd have to judge whether or not they're growing in the same direction you are as a person. You'd have to assess the situation sooo carefully.
It's a relief to have the bulk of my childbearing years behind me, but I'm still not out of the woods for a considerable amount of time. It's terrifying to think about having sex with somebody and conceiving a child. I just see zero benefits to engaging in sexual activity with people. There's no one I want bad enough to risk all the terrible things that can happen.
Loving somebody and having things fail between you is bad enough by itself. But throw in all the other shit that can go wrong and... I dunno, it just seems like a fool's game.
