Projecting your shit onto the world

whats your philosophy of life and the world? Until recently mine was that this world is really a prison for consciousness. I came up with a rationale to justify this. Then a dramatic change in my life circumstances. Then suddenly the world felt very different. It's a place of possibility and potential. A place of exploration and a place to find and create and share joy, passion and intensity. So my previous philosophy was a projection of the fact I was putting myself in a prison in my personal life. Now I have freed myself, I have freed the world.
