. Whatever religion or belief system that you align you with, or even if you don't align yourself with any organized religion at all, you need to carve out time in your schedule for deep contemplation and meditative training. Pray, meditate, and contemplate constantly.   To start praying, focus less on asking specific yes-no types of questions and more on focusing on feeling. How does it feel to get in touch with the higher power in which you believe? How does talking with your god affect your soul? For some monastics, time needs to be divided evenly between reading the great texts, meditating, and experiencing the world. As a rule of thumb, don't spend more time praying than you spend studying the religious texts you study, and vice versa. There's no specific goal or outcome of a meditative practice. You don't come out the other side of a meditation sitting feeling as if you've learned something, necessarily, or as if you've solved the big problems that you seek. Instead, focus on stilling yourself and increasing your awareness, then taking that into the world.   To start meditating, learn to still your thoughts and watch them float through your mind without identifying them actively. Just sit, focus on your breathing, and fix your gaze on the void. Try to hold onto your meditation-mind for as long as possible throughout the day. Notice the little things. Slow down. A popular Zen saying compares Zen to a boat. You use when you need to cross the river, but you don't take it with you. Learn to leave your Zen on the shore when it becomes unnecessary. Religion, meditative practices, and other aspects of your mystical experience should serve your understanding of the world, not burden it. It's important to spend time with like-minded believers who take their mystical practice seriously. Learn by observing and having complicated conversations with people from your church, organization, or other religious groups. Bounce ideas and interpretations off each other. Learn as much as you can. In some traditions, finding a teacher, mentor, or guru is an essential part of practicing your own brand of mysticism and developing as a mystical thinker. If you're ready to pledge yourself to a serious practice, consider finding a personal teacher.

Q: Shelter stands as your camp in the game. It will protect your storage and other items inside the house from thieves and bandits.  There are two ways to create a shelter; the first one is the basic wood shelter with 1,000 HP. It’s a small house that can be crafted using only wood. Though quick and easy to set up, it can be broken down by melee hits or grenades. The basic shelter is great for new players that are still gathering materials for a better home. To make a wood shelter, simply press Tab to open your inventory and then click the crafting button found at the upper part of your screen. This will enable the list of crafting items. Click the wood shelter to see the requirements. You will need 50 wood to craft this. After you crafted the shelter, simply equip the item and then choose a leveled ground for it to build. The second way to build a home, and much more tougher compared to wood shelter, is by building it using wood planks. Building a structure requires a lot of materials since 1 wood plank requires 10 wood. Compared to wood shelter, you will be crafting each part of the house to build it.  Wood foundation - You will need this before you can install the pillars. Wood foundation requires 8 planks. Wood pillar - These are required to place a window, doorway, wall, stairs, and even ceilings. You can only build wooden structures between the wood pillars. You can craft wood pillar with 2 wood planks. Wood wall - This requires 4 wood planks to create. Walls can be destroyed with 1 to 3 explosive charges. Walls do not take melee damage. Wood doorway - This is where you can place your door. Before leaving a server, make sure to install a door for other players may place their own and claim the house you built. To craft a doorway, you need 4 wood planks. Wood ceiling - In the current game, wood ceiling are not destructible. To make a ceiling, you need 6 wood planks. Now that you have a shelter, you can start storing your items inside your home. It will be safe there. If your character dies, all the items inside the storage will remain, so make sure to put gathered materials inside your shelter before leaving to do more hunting or gathering. You are now set to survive longer compared to the other players in the game, but before you head out to kill players or do what is needed to be done, you must make a sleeping bag.  Sleeping bags give you a spawn point. If your character dies, you will be given an upon to respawn somewhere or spawn back in your camp (where you placed your sleeping bag). To make a Sleeping bag, you need 15 cloth to build. Simply place it inside your home to activate the spawning point.
A: Make a shelter. Build a home. Make a sleeping bag.

Article: You might feel hurt or angry if your friends go MIA, but their behavior says more about them than it does about you. Your friends may not know what to say to you, or they might find it too difficult to see you suffering.  Seeing a friend come down with a chronic illness is hard for many people because it reminds them that anybody can get sick. People may disappear from your life because they don’t want to think about their own health and mortality. Some of your friends might feel awkward around you because they don’t know how to act anymore. If they’re afraid of saying something wrong, they might start avoiding you altogether. Also, some people inaccurately assume that you want space while you are coming to terms with your diagnosis. Particularly if you have been less present socially due to pain or illness. If a friend says something that hurts your feelings, don’t hesitate to tell them how it affects you. Putting a stop to tactless jokes right away will make your friends less likely to say similar things in the future. If your friend cares about you, they will apologize and speak more carefully next time.  Be direct. Say something like, “That’s pretty hurtful to me. I’d rather you didn’t joke about that.” Be aware that your friend is probably not being intentionally hurtful. They may be making a poor attempt at humor because they don’t know what to say. Not everyone will be capable of giving you the same degree of support, but don't let this keep you from asking. Just be understanding if they can't make something work. Don't assume they do not have time for you. If a friend can’t be there for you all the time but still makes an effort to keep in touch and help you out occasionally, let them know you appreciate them. You might say, "I know we used to spend more time together, and I'm not physically able to go out as much. I really appreciate how flexible you have been to still hang out with me."
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Understand that your friends’ lack of support isn’t personal. Stand up for yourself when people say insensitive things. Revise your expectations.
