I'm going to talk about the phenomenon, uh, phenomenon, about people thinking that they're alone and this false expectation of friend groups. Um, now, I am one of those cases where I've never actually had a friend group. I've, in school, I was just kind of like the odd one out that was kind of just there because maybe people felt sorry for me or, you know, I wasn't any trouble so they didn't particularly mind me being in the friend group but, like, I would hop around different groups and I wouldn't particularly feel invested in any of them or included. And I've always been the type of person to have multiple different friends scattered around and in recent years they have diminished, um, because of, you know, life and working and moving away. Um, but I believe people have this false expectation of what a friendship group should be like and that you should have one and I think there's a difference between feeling alone and choosing to be alone and there's nothing wrong with that and you don't need to have a friend group to be happy because, in all honesty, friend groups always have drama and I know that from the very vague interaction I had with a friend group which involved my ex but I've also had stories from other friend groups, uh, but yeah, you know, just accept that, you know, introduce yourself to yourself and, uh, appreciate your own company and, you know, you can do whatever you want in your own company and you don't have to please nobody.

I hate it that when atheists (or the like) refer to God as a “mythological creature” it undermines people’s soul values completely! Cuts it down to nothing more than a fairytale.
