Confidence.
In
the past, our confidence
was spurred on by an ego
which had a need to be
proven right. That need
has gone, and with it so
has the spurring. Many
bright ideas pass by and
dwindle into darkness
with no further
attention. Why bother?
Everything we used to
believe in now has no
meaning, and we stand in
a void of empty
loneliness. We cannot
see the point in most of
the activities which
most of the people
participate in. They
are, if viewed from the
point of view of world
control, indeed, on the
most part, useless
eaters.
Through all sorts of means, many of us have been persuaded that we are supposed to work for a living, so that is what we do. No other form of existence ever enters our mind.
Paying taxes for things which we never see is not seen as an unnecessary burden. Having secrets kept from us is accepted as normal. Drinking alcohol is not frowned upon. Mindless activities are replacing mindful ones. The planet is devolving.
Most of life seems to be a distraction, preventing us from getting where we are going, even though we may not know where that is. It is only after analysis of a 'typical-day-at-the-office' that we realise that we actually devote more time to interruptions than we do to getting on with what we believe to be important. This causes us to be frustrated with our own lack of performance, and results in many depressed hours.
When presented in this way, we can soon see that it is our approach to our activities which is wrong, and not the activities themselves. If only we could realise that what we do for ourselves is unimportant, and what we do for others is important, then we would realise that the interruptions are life. Then, suddenly, with no change except inside our minds, we discover that we have been spending most of our time living, and only our attachment to some false idea like working for a living is keeping us from spending all of our time living. End of depression, end of fruitless striving, end of stress, and welcome to the inimitable smile.
