Who Exactly Am I?
Deep in my slumber, the darkness of my eyes and the depths in my soul. I wanted to be perfect in someone else's eyes. Cause deep down I truly resent myself. I hate who I am and who I have become. If only I was perfect, maybe someone will cherish me, but I'm not someone that anyone wants. Instead I'm used, beaten, abused and forgotten. I am worthless to the human existence and the world of unknown.

New Recent Theory on Bipedalism
I already posted a couple of essays about the evolution of humans and especially why we became bipeds. I realized I made quite a few mistakes in my previous posts, which is why I'm making this post to correct my mistakes and wrong theories.
I mentioned a marine theory about evolution, meaning that water was very important to our evolution. Obviously there are a lot of evidence supporting that idea, the way our body is built - very differently from the other apes, as you all know. And the idea that we were close to water has a lot of evidence.
I then stumbled upon the Aquatic Ape theory. But quickly I realized that that was not the one I had
One type of abuse that goes undetected is "gaslighting". It's a subcategory of emotional abuse. I would like to shed some light on this form of abuse with this article.
Emotional abuse is not much talked about because people tend to brush it off as unimportant. But it's not nothing, and I have already explained this in other articles:
I found an article that greatly explains what gaslighting is and I couldn't have done better myself which is why I copied here just the beginning of the article so that you can see what it's about, but I invite you to read the rest of it by clicking on the link (below) because the whole article is very interes

Looking back at what happened before:
The Arab spring of 2011.
Libya was one of the countries that participated in the Arab spring. Libya is a very dry country because of their huge desert. They discovered a huge underground water supply while they were searching for oil. Then a giant pipeline was created by the Libyan government to give access to fresh water to all the Libyan people.
The pipeline was bombed by NAT
Alexander The Great was Greek.
Alexander The Great was Macedon.
If you are Macedon then you are Greek.
You cannot be Macedon if you are not Greek.
Macedonia was always a part of Greece.
And Macedons they were only speaking greek, no other language.
They still speak greek and only greek.
There is no trace of any other language 2500 years now.
Macedons considered themselves Greek and were proud for being Greek.
Macedonia Was Greek!
Macedonia Is Greek!
Macedonia Will Remain Greek!
The land of the ancient Macedonia today it's splitted. Only a part of the old Macedonia's land belongs to Greece. Nobody asks anything from the people living on the

1) No matter how many times it's necessary, argue. Every time they vent about how hideous, worthless, or moronic they think they are, fight it. Day in and day out, no matter how much they don't believe you, they still want to hear it. They need it, but they won't ask for it.
Maybe once and a while you don't want to start a full on debate. Simply tell them, if they don't tell you, that you don't want to fight again. Just tell them they already know you think they are amazing and move on to talk about more pleasant things.
2) Try not to leave
Earlier today I received a phone call while in therapy. It was my friend Aidan’s mom. My friend Aidan who’d crashed at my place. My friend Aidan who I’d had to let go. My friend Aidan who I’d been told had left for Boston with junky scum, no not scum—junky people, a couple, a guy and a girl, human beings addicted——addicted to heroin. What could I say. Couldn't talk long, for I was with my therapist. Could be comforting, for that’s what I did. Said I understand, but I don’t understand; corrected myself and said no, I don’t, I couldn’t, I’m not a mom, not a parent,
