Henosis, the Greek name for unity. I thought that this would be a fitting name for my steemit when this is a lot like my goal in life. There is nothing I want more in life than to bring people closer together and to give people something to love and relate to. I want to give it my best shot at making people happy and that's why I'm here today. There is so much that I would like to share with you so please allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Charlie, I'm 22 and I spend more time in my own head than I am going about my day. It's not that I don't care, it's that I can't control it. I have inattentive ADHD and it can be annoying at times, especially when it interferes with work but recently I've been trying to not let it kick me down. I've finally realized I need to look at it in a different way and try and use it as a benefit and not a problem that needs fixing. This doesn't work in day to day life because our society wasn't created for unfocused people; we are the broken cogs in a system created for high productivity. It's incredibly misunderstood but I'm not here to rant about ADHD, I'm here to tell you what I want to achieve.
Being able to constantly think allows ideas to branch off in any direction, an endless thought stream that can just go on and on until someone or something snaps me out of it. It allows me to think for much longer and to go much deeper into my own mind. This doesn't mean my ideas will be anything special, sometimes it's just the opposite. I've gotten myself into bad anxiety because of my inability to stop thinking about bad things about life and health. I've managed to get myself out of that for now and when I'm not caught up thinking of the worst, I am thinking about incredible things that some call stupid, pointless or maybe even wonderful, depending on how you look at life. I'm not here to tell people how to live their lives but I know there will be people that might benefit from the things I would like to share, so I'm going for it, I'm giving myself a chance to achieve something by doing the things I love and at the same time, using my ADHD to help me. If I'm able to achieve that then it would be a massive F U to society for treating me like there is something wrong with me.
My posts will be about the big things in life, or the small, maybe even the crazy or strange. I love philosophy and want to talk about it with no end but I don’t want to limit myself to a theme because then there is so much that will be missed out. I want to talk about the universe and the people within it. The lives we have created or the ones that have been taken. When you allow yourself to think freely and away from the mindset of the daily worker ant, you start to think about the things in life that are not about the jobs at work you have to do for tomorrow or the assignment you have to hand in. Just relax and be one with the universe that you're in; try and see the bigger picture. You will find what you are looking for, maybe not today but I know you will one day.
Thank you for reading my introduction, I would love you to check my future posts and I hope I can help in some way on this little journey.
