This reminds me of a scene in Walking Dead when Michonne is walking with the zombies, undetected. Then she realizes where she is, what she could become... slices all their heads off and goes in search of people who are "alive". Awesome scene

it's a bit like palahniuk:—You are not special. You're not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else. We're all part of the same compost heap. We're all singing, all dancing crap of the world.??

"So, then nothing is special, nothing is new, nothing is more than another."
in a nutshell i agree. but let me elaborate:

it's a bit existential and to many, maybe a bit pessimistic since as humans we think we are intelligent and sophisticated enough to rise above the baseness of life in general and give value and meaning to the everyday. in reality though, we are all insignificant, our footprints mere dust in comparison to this universe.. and life continues like an ongoing train without any real regards to you.
and yet this isn't pessimism at all. this isn't advocating that you cannot have value in your life, or love, or work, or whatever little things you do that you think is meaningful and real. in actuality i think it's empowering, almost transcendent ... to think you are a millisecond blink in the timeline of the world and of the universe. empowering because that IS real, the dirt and dust around us is evidence... "all we are is dust in the wind". we are not deluding ourselves by buying into the self-importance of society feeding us b.s. that what YOU feel is the only thing that matters, that what YOU do is all-encompassing and above all else. there is more to life than just you. it's liberating if you can think and feel more than just what you yourself can think and feel.
that's what i take from the OP's message.

My son's birthday is today. And mine is tomorrow.
My 11 y/o -pisces sun aries moon -
Creative, emotional, friendly, easily frustrated.. anxious to see him grow and notice our differences and similarities.
I wonder if he will be philosophical. So far he is not.

It's nice to see people using more than one brain cell, isn't it?

Hey...you're new aren't you? You don't get to cal P-angel "P". That's reserved. 😉
Unless you are another deleted user..if so, identify yourself.
I'm a deleted user, and I doubt you'd know me if I "identified" myself to you anyway, so I shan't 😛click to expand

Empathy cannot exist any more than unconditional love can exist.
Every person has their own perception, has their own reality .... and to expect the other to put meaning to their life according to how you view it should be is ludicrous.
Life experience vs. perception & reality. Mince words all you like. If we PERCEIVE something different, and what's REAL to us is different, then what we experience is DIFFERENT.click to expand

Coward..
Yes, I'm terrified. Thing is, my username, writing style , placements, and timing are all pretty obvious indicators, and if you can't figure it out, then you didn't really know me, and if you didn't really know me, then what difference does it make? I don't answer to you.click to expand

Not angry at all 🙂 I think I made a valid point- you don't give a rat's ass who I am, so why should I tell you? If a response wasn't warranted, not sure why you addressed me in the first place?

This thread is akin a debate of a murder case. Everyone agrees there a rotting corpse in the room, but the jury can't agree on the motive. Self-defense or fit of rage?!
Futile....

*lightbulb moment*
So when a Pisces asks you to share things from your life with them..it's not about some concern, some small talk..they are going from one universe to the next and for the time being they want you to show them your universe so they can play in that.
It's not about the partner, it's about their world/perception/reality.
Yes. In order for us to "feel" you and your ways, emotions, and soul we must get to know you and not just the "now" you but the past you. We take things and take them apart to understand them on a level most never would imagine.click to expand

A person can feel what they other is saying, empathetically ... but, you cannot understand how it is measured by them .. you can only understand how you measure it's value.
so, you're not really empathizing .... you are actually deceiving the other in believing that you know exactly what they mean.
A Pisces can literally feel the other person's emotions, but, they can only interpret those feelings according to their own perception of reality.
I have to disagree with this P Angel. A person has empathy due to their upbringing and background. We all have went though some tough times. How we went through those times and came out is what matters. Some people decide to fight those feelings and they turn it into anger, some cry and cannot stop. Some people go with the feelings, understand them and push through. The end result is what makes us care or not care about others....
Yes some of us fake it by saying they understand...majority do not.
Yes we fish feel everything...and yes that statement is true..but it is true for everyone on a certain level.click to expand

You say you disagree ... then proceed to describe the same thing I said.

Pisces is all about feelz, that's the point of P-angel I think.
unconditional love is just a feel (and unconditional hate also exists), but feels can be switched on and off.
Pisces can see many different reactions to adopt in a situation, and don't follow conventional ones because they have choice.That explains why pisces can have delayed reactions, or a more "spectator" attitude to some situations.
But unlike libra, pisces is not about maintaining status-quo or balance. Pisces will end up breaking balance and getting one of the more charged attitude, knowing that they can turn around at any time and swim back.
