Greetings, Gaians. I am Daffodil, Destroyer of Worlds, but that was too long for a username, so Daffodil the Destroyer it is. You can call me Ishmael Daffodil. Or Daff. Or Daffy. Whatever's recognizable, really. I'm basically a genderbent Chandler Bing. xd

I'm an '06er, in my late 30s {oh god how did I get this old gonk }, and in a relationship. If you think it's weird for someone my age to be on Gaia, then git off mah damn lawn! emotion_donotwant "Back in my day, this place was called Go-Gaia, and we had to walk uphill both ways in the snow three times a day just to get enough gold for a peasant outfit!"

Things I love include fuzzy little baby goats... and grown-up goats too! Like Jean-Paul Goatier. Jean-Paul was a very playful goat! RIP, Jean-Paul... we will always remember you!

Another thing I love is being snarky, but I'm also a big softy who wants everyone to love each other and all that nice s**t. stressed But as society becomes more polarized and more hateful, it's harder for me to be nice to those who want to strip rights away from others.

I'm actually super shy and awkward about approaching people directly, so feel free to message me if you want to talk about anything (unless you're creepy. please refrain from being creepy at me). sweatdrop

I am both a "soft" or agnostic atheist and a minor religious enthusiast. I was raised Christian, but I find deities and supernatural beings improbable (but interesting!).

I just continued our chat over there, once I got past some technical difficulties with Gaia's bugs.

Hey Daffodil, I think our chat just went beyond what the primitive editor on profile comments can handle so if it's fine with you, I'm moving it over to my long running thread here.

I tend to go deep and it's much easier there, lol. I'll quote you from there.

Under all the beliefs of it is some real stuff. Yes, I am an atheist, but I am also an empath. New age terms come in handy sometimes to share and describe experiences, but I don't confuse it with the belief side of things; those include stuff like reincarnation, astral planing, spirit guides, etc. And the great Divine (another term for deity). Tarot does work to access the subconscious and what it observes, I was surprised to learn it has genuine value in that way for many people. The subconscious itself picks up so much we otherwise miss and having ways to access that is invaluable.

Learn to trust your intuition and gut feelings again. Clarity is the key; when needs and emotions get in the way, they distort and hide what it has to share. I trust my intuition above all else and I have great communication with my subconscious levels.

Oh current events..... yeah, distraction is indeed helpful. That and a long term premonition I had that a subsequent one told me when it will happen. Read my profile statement about the dreams. The later one told me things would totally change in 2025, mid year. Trump has always terrified me.... so I wonder what will change?

LOL, mindless suds on TV is a long honored tradition. I tend to other stuff though. Any good intelligent sci fi/fantasy, well written mysteries (wit and humor in the light ones a big bonus), good stories in general and Penn and Teller Fool Us which is just fun. All of which my husband watches with me. Well except the stories that don't have enough action for him.... All I can say is thank goodness for streaming TV given the paucity of quality new shows made in the US in the past 4 years.

So I guess we're the subversives of the guild! ninja rofl

It sounds like a similar path a good and brilliant friend of mine took. She embraced it all, went back to not believing anything and eventually stopped waiting. It was so much fun watching her process getting there and we had many long spirited discussions, with lots of confusion as we saw things from supremely different views. And yet in the end, always ended up at the same spot, something which amazes me to this day. It is from her I learned how to speak "new age", a trippy place indeed.

So what do you explore now instead of religious views? In my 20s I ended up exploring them from an anthropological pov.

It's a bit ironic that we met in a guild that is mostly crewed by extremely religious fundamentalists, lol. I did something few ever did; I found beliefs didn't make sense to me, match what I was experiencing. So after exploring my own deeply, I set it aside and decided to not believe anything and just observe what the universe showed me. I am well versed in science but for me that is just a starting place. What I've learned is wondrous and I know it's only a tiny bit of what is. I'm content to live with the mystery and enjoy the discoveries; it's led to a very rich life.

What caused you to let religion go? It's always interesting the reasons people have for doing so and it is never the same between two people.

It can feel a bit lonely sometimes in a very religious country to walk one's own path.

And oh yeah, we can have fun sharing a visual sense of humor. User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Given your sense of humor, you might also enjoy The Red Corpse's threads. She's a total trip; her online persona matches somewhat her real life one and her avi contests are always really interesting.

Thanks; I know angelic will appreciate it.

Just read your profile. And I got a chuckle; late 30s old? Oh my....I'm long retired, one of Gaia's true senior citizens. And now I have this image of an old goat named Daffodil Destroyer of worlds, happily destroying it, one garden at a time, feasting while her person frantically tries to find her amid the bare earth left in her wake. rofl

A bit about me; not agnostic, nope, supernatural controlling beings don't exist. The universe is wondrous and full of mysteries and I don't need all the answers as to why; I think that's a major cause of religious beliefs. And as you're figuring out, I have a very visual processing style.... ninja

Anyhow, all this is sidetracked. The reason I'm commenting is to let you know the reason so many use 18 point or more fonts in Serenity guild; the owner of both the guild and the thread has advanced glaucoma and is almost completely blind now. She needs it in order to be able to read posts, even with her monitor set to the largest print possible. There are a couple of other visually impaired members in the guild too.
