When everybody else was clapping. I was overwhelmed with emotions by just a basic understanding of what that man might know because he outlines it so very clearly. And even as clear as he does do such a task it is a massive one and it's really hard for a small mind a single one. Alone. To understand, order to be able to articulate in such a way that it is meaningful to others. No I didn't, I stood there my eyes wet my mind heavy with some kind of understanding that I don't even know where to begin. I cried. I could not help myself. Because I think I really do understand that what I need to do. Is not to try to, ... Well it's try and I don't need to try. I need to do. And what I need to do is to pursue something that is meaningful. And to me with that means first is to unravel the false truth, that I have allowed to become troops in my personal web of means of verification of truths as I have moved forward in life because having one thing that is false in in my mind. But not knowing that I have accepted something that is untrue as a truth and having that thing guide me for decades. Means that everything that I know could be wrong and everything that I tell people could be wrong. So that means that I technically. Even though I try to live as a person who is valid and true. That I am just kidding myself, because I'm not actively pursuing validating the truth of the knowledge that I possess to a degree that everything I know is a reality in my mind and has been verified by witnesses to confirm that what I know to be true is true and then I could take that forward in a life and presented to others as the truth. So that basically means I need to go back in my life and find the railroad track that goes through the mountain of my life and I need to pull out every single railroad spike every single railroad tie every single railroad Lane every single everything I need to remove it as if I was never even been there and then I need to fill in the tunnel through that mountain piece-by-piece Stone by Stone until it is if I was never there with everything perfect with every grain of stone as if it was created by God at the moment of creation and then if that's not enough of a task I have to replot my life around that mountain, and build a new railroad that goes to a place that is straight and true. And when I get done building that. Since I am now 47 years old. I can start rebuilding the knowledge. And the validation web of Truth in my life with facts but I'll have to go back in time and revalidate everything in my life from you say about eight or nine years old when I started allowing lies to dictate the truth in my world. Now that's a mountain oh s*** to shovel.
I think people clap when they should be crying. It's because they're just like yeah I'm not going to do that LOL. Because that is a task that is daunting is uphill is incredibly heavy and you will die guaranteed while trying to get up that hill.
So I cry.
I'm going to start heading up the hill. I hope to see some of you with me. I guaran-damn-tee you I'm going to need some serious help.

After researching, no... After clicking on several videos of Jordan Peterson's, ones that particularly deal with him talking about lying. And this is after a couple years of listening to his speeches and his debates his podcasts. I have come to what I would say, is, becoming a fledgling understanding. A whyJordan Peterson cries.
I've heard people clap, they applauded quite vigorously and uproariously. It's as though all of a sudden Jordan Peterson becomes one of them he's accepted because he has emotions. Because what he's teaching them he really wants them to know. And they want to show that they are listening. But I don't see it as that I see it as people applauding. I see it as people doing what they've been taught to do, and has become the accepted manner of treating one that is standing up on stage putting on a performance. It's as if they're acknowledging him as one of their own because he has emotions and they understand him but that's not what I see. If they really understood with Jordan Peterson was saying. And as I said fledgling, a very fledgling understanding a base concept that Jordan Peterson has refined through an intense amount of study and research and putting himself through hell. To come to understand what he needs to know. And what he found out is something that may brings him to tears. And if people, if we all collectively new what Jordan Peterson knows! I think we wouldn't be applauding we would be flinging abject terror shame and horror. At what were allowing ourselves to become by not coming to full realization of who and what we are. And I'm not saying that what we are is bad. It's that in our ignorance, we are far less than what we could be we're not even forty percent of what we could be. And even though the world is a much better place than what it was just a few short decades ago. We could be more but we're not and we are still subject and have the ignorance within us to allow ourselves to create another gulag archipelago, another Auschwitz, and so on. But not just that. It's the fact that so many absolutely incredibly beautiful human beings and I do mean every single last one of you are falling to the wayside are being forgotten. Being left alone. Being led astray being forgotten. Never reaching their potential because what is possible is not what we are taught is possible of being

Why have I been silent all these years? I was told by my counselors to stay silent 🤫 and not to defend myself from all the lies against me. So I ignore, stay away and it to keep my peace.
