Some harsh in the wild realisations:

People don’t care about privacy

People don’t care about real health they just want a quick fix.

People don’t care about work, they want the path of least resistance and if they have to sell their soul for a free doughnut then that’s what they’ll do without a moment’s hesitation.

People don’t want to learn and they surely don’t want to have to think or problem solve.

People will believe whatever is fed to them and go along with it because it’s easy.

Very true

It took me a while to get over these - I was so disappointed that the people around me couldn’t see what I could.

I'm in the same mood today 😅 Just had a conversation with a friend. It's a sad reality. At the same time becoming aware and changing these patterns is exactly the crux of human awakening.

Now, what's our challenge here? Accept this reality. Accept that obviously real change can never come through force. And then remain realistic, optimistic, constructive and continue to act joyfully and lovingly, be a rock in the stormy sea. Life is so beautiful and interesting!

I often think of people like Jiddu Krishnamurti or Ramana Maharshi who did their thing all the while witnessing WWI and WWII.

You’re right we have the choice to sink and drown or to bob against the current. To encourage and nurture and try not to get dragged under by the weight of the tide. 🫂

Yes, let's do it! And enjoy the experience 🫂

Yep, when it comes down to it most people are lazy, ignorant, vain, selfish, cowardly, greedy, dishonest and vindictive.

Thank fuck for the rest of us

I admit that I am all of those things some of the time, far from perfect and saintly. We’ll have to choose nostr:npub1kck3x6kh3krej5esvwy6ujp0g5e3af8ehec8ulc7e7zuyplappss27hjl4 ‘s path for that is really the only way

Haha, yeah, I don't like singling us or anyone out. Because just as nostr:nprofile1qqsxhqw8cylmgtc7l2c484vdpe9fykavxeqe0ywxdhyy2unucxlh94gpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wdmksetjv5hxxmmd9u7u20t4 said, I also was and still am some of these things to a certain degree. The process of increased awareness can take time. With that in mind and though it can be frustrating to see, in my view the best is to do us, yes, to be that rock and be what we'd like to see in the world, free without pressure.

So what! Do you!
