Does life ever have a moment in peace?

[ColdPhoenix]

I've always been forced to race towards accomplishing something or finishing something and I'm just...tired. I want to just spend an entire day, not talking to anyone or doing anything. It's completely unrealistic to make that day happen, but does anyone else just feel...tired? Like, even if all you were doing was in bed all day, no devices, no people, no things, just a complete blank void; it would be a relief?

I feel very tired as well. But life is a constant struggle, a never ending war. It feels like being burnt out by life itself. Everything is a meaningless fight. Yeah it would be so good to just be able to relax and not have to fight.

 

[WAITING TO DIE]

Life is exhausting at the best of times, there's always some problem ready to jump out at you and bite you on the ass.
I often wish we humans were battery operated and we could just literally unplug for a day or two.

No, as long as I'm a conscious being trapped in this flesh prison there will never be peace. Only the eternity of death could ever bring me the peace I search for, in my case peace could only ever exist in the absence of everything. It's such a curse to have the ability to exist, because as long as one exists there is no true escape from suffering and harm, there is no limit as to how much one can be tormented in this existence, it's why only wanting to die feels rational to me.

Yes but after maybe a day like that, I would be bored. I think we're designed to never be content. Still- if you're interested in trying to calm your mind, I would recommend Eckhart Tolle's book: 'The Power of Now'. That has helped me in the past.

Night hours are peaceful for me, just sit there doing fuck all. I also try to spend time in nature alone when I can, a few days at a time. It does get boring after a few days if you're really not doing anything.
