What is life? TL;DR
Dostoevsky: It's hell. To Dostoevsky, life was a battle with the darkest parts of the human soul—a crucible of suffering where we confront our deepest fears and desires.
Socrates: It's a test. Life is the ultimate examination of virtue, wisdom, and truth. For Socrates, an unexamined life is not worth living.
Aristotle: It's the mind. Life is the pursuit of knowledge and reason—a journey to understand the world through logic, ethics, and metaphysics.
Nietzsche: It's power. Life is the will to power—a striving for self-overcoming and mastery of circumstances, rejecting complacency and embracing growth.
Freud: It's death. Freud saw life as a tension between the life instinct (Eros) and the death instinct (Thanatos)—a constant drive toward creation and destruction.
Marx: It's the idea. For Marx, life is shaped by material conditions and the ideologies that arise from them—a struggle to create a world of equality and justice.
Picasso: It's art. Life is creation—a canvas for painting our passions, emotions, and dreams, shaped by imagination and expression.
Gandhi: It's love. Gandhi believed life is rooted in nonviolence, compassion, and universal love—a journey toward peace and selfless service.
Schopenhauer: It's suffering. For Schopenhauer, life is ceaseless striving that inevitably leads to pain and dissatisfaction, tempered only by moments of beauty and art.

Kafka: It's just the beginning. Life is surreal and enigmatic, often absurd, yet always opening doors to transformation and possibility.
Camus: It's rebellion. Life is finding meaning in a meaningless universe, defying absurdity with courage and passion.

Victor Frankl: It's meaning. Life is finding purpose, even in the most difficult circumstances, through love and service.
Simone de Beauvoir: It's freedom. Life is the power to define yourself and reject roles imposed by society.
Heraclitus: It's change. Life is constant flux—a river we step into once before it flows anew.
Hegel: It's progress. Life is a dialectical process, advancing through contradiction and resolution toward greater understanding.
Hobbes: It's survival. Life in its natural state is "nasty, brutish, and short," requiring systems to maintain order.

Uuh.. just set coinos wallet with #Amethyst via WC for one tap zap. The easiest way to do it until now.
You should try coinos.io if you don't have already. Only thing I don't like much is that automatically changes lightning address default on your Nostr profile, but all the rest is so neat and simple.

I can't do much about what others will say or think, there's no way to control or filter the "output".. Instead I should be, and I want to be more in control of the "input".
I want to build my "soul's firewall" and to choose which ports will be open and to be in complete control of the data I will feed my soul with.
You can grow yourself as much you want, but if you can be easily shaken by words coming from outside, you'll probably feel like going backwards in your process.
In the last years I was trying to build my financial freedom, eliminating counter party risks, taking more responsibilities.. well I understood I should do the same with my mental health.
Not your thoughts, not your emotions. Avoid to be enslaved by the projections of others enforcing them on yourself.. it's my responsibility to care less about what others think, or say.
