@Noble Dust".why is it that if I enjoy my life, yours is made easier?"
Well, if you enjoy your life, my body has no issues. It works like a well oiled machine...
Every person in this world is like a living bacteria in my body, each doing their "job".
@Philosophim: "But since only my mind can be known, aren't you really just me?"
I am, your mind is just a tiny piece of mine. Could be a good piece, or a piece of shit
;-) depending on my imagination...
@praxis: "Does a morning of studying a gray seascape make the afternoon more beautiful?"
Never tried that, and i prefer studying a tropical seascape, it changes the landscape around me. Unfortunatly, to dry is not so good for the grass... But if i would persist, my garden would become a beach.
@Bird-up (love that name): I wake up in the same place because my consciousness has a memory. Well more like people make use of time/watches... Memory only starts to work when you learn the lineair concept of time (i guess). But when i dream, i am without memory, so i could be anywhere. Well, i am in my sleeping body, my sleeping body is the scene... Like, i am a kind of an artist. When i make collages, i use elements, textures of pictures to recreate something. In my dream i then am in a place i recognise, but everything is different, different bed, different tv, different floor tiles, but the rooms (as spaces) are still the same, the doors are in the same places, the windows, the furnitures are the same, like a table would still have 6 chairs, but they would be different style... You should try this yourself. It would have the same effect in your dreams. Make a few evenings collages, for some hours... really get into making collages, creating with it. Your dream will appear as a collage.
But the world is really not that consistant, its a projection of myself. So learning about that (yes there is still alot to learn of myself) it gives me freedom. I was sick two days, doctor said i have gallstone. So i breath trough the pain focus on the same old usual instead of the pain. I made an appointment to do an echo. No, no gallstone, and the pain was almost gone too. Is it coincidence, was there really gallstone few days ago... no one will know. I just rewrote my brain...
Hope this sounds interesting to hear from the point of view of the solipsist.
