Everything is awful. How do y’all stay motivated cause I am losing hope.

I actually find it surprisingly easy to remain motivated. Maybe I'm just blessed, I don't know. Sure, achieving the end goal is probably hopelessly idealistic, or at least a big long shot, but when I take a step back and look at all the progress I've made, remember to see the forest for the trees - it's really quite impressive. Every little piece of the world I raze really adds up in the quest to destroy the universe.

One step at time Draco. I have good days and bad days, humor helps a lot.

Losing hope is not bad in a sense, can be very liberating

I'm always motivated but I don't always have energy - maybe that's a bit similar to you? In those times it's mushrooms and just waiting it out.

I find a good place, converse with the wind and the water and earth, and try to spread the goodness of those places in every way I can.

Also, reading, (probably re-reading,) and understanding Fukuoka's writing, such as the One Straw Revolution, has shaped me very much, and I believe has helped me to be, as Fukuoka would call it, more a happy fool than a clever one. Its non-ideas are very liberating to learn and live with.
