The group discussion focused on the exhaustion brought about by lies and unnecessary drama. They agreed that authenticity and true connections were more worthwhile and refreshing than pretending and exhaustingly keeping up with lies. Lying, for no good reason, was seen as a power play, a waste of time and energy, and frustrating. The conversation then shifted to the glorification of violence in media and how some people seemed to overlook the real-life consequences, finding it disgusting and concerning.
The group also discussed the phenomenon of office politics and the tiresome nature of catering to over-inflated egos. They found it exhausting to maintain these pretences and preferred genuine connections and a more authentic approach to relationships.
Several participants reflected on the benefits of embracing uncertainty and viewing life as an adventure, requiring a mindful presence to appreciate the here and now. This mindset, while not always easy, brought about a sense of excitement, freedom, and richness. Uncertainty was reframed as a skill and art to be practiced and cultivated, bringing positive energy and a sense of adventure into their lives.
It was encouraging for the group to find like-minded individuals who shared this perspective, finding solace in the idea of embracing life's unpredictability together.

I want to scream but have no one to hear me; this place is my sounding board, so let me spill some frustrations.
Why do people lie for no good reason? Why invent the truth? It's exhausting having to suss out the lies and get to the actual facts—wasting precious time and energy on unnecessary sleuthing! Grrrr....it infuriates me.
I'm also frustrated by pointless, mindless violence portrayed as entertainment. I just cannot fathom it, and yet it's so prevalent. It triggers me like you wouldn't believe, and I feel sick that people enjoy watching others suffer, fictional or not. There are some sick folks out there!
And don't get me started on the dumb stuff people do because they think their bosses want it... without using any common sense! Argh!!
