So, we all know we're in a bad spot, right? It's no longer a secret and at this point its damn near impossible to hide from, unless of course you're a sociopath. (see Tumblr for sociopathic tendencies).
Honesty is extremely valuable at this point. Being honest with ourselves and true to our feelings is only the beginning of the grand journey to the other side. (And I don't mean the afterlife. I mean the other side right here on Earth.) Self actualizing and the realization of oneself is the revolution that we should seek for and understand. What's got me feeling the blues is we all seem to really, really dislike each other and to some degree we dislike ourselves. And I'm beginning to understand that it's because we have lied to each other constantly in order to make ourselves feel better about whatever is ailing us and yet somehow it does the complete opposite. We get stuck in those lies because it becomes far too hard to back track and the embarrassment becomes unbearable. Our pride and our egos have gotten in the way of our sensibilities and moreover our love, and have become tarnished from over use and abuse. We have to stop dismissing our mistakes. Not doing so only keeps us in this stagnant place of ignorance and loneliness. We have made the job of growing in to the great and excellent people we are truly meant to be an extremely destructive and difficult task. I am concussed from ramming my head in to the "wall" we have built and imprisoned ourselves behind, knowing that there is something greater, fresh and new on the other side. But it's gotten almost too high to climb and pass over and we're stuck here constantly regurgitating regurgitated regurgitation. We're all just shades and fragments of our whole selves. We're trapped in a vicious cycle and I want out!!!!! And there is a way out through truth. We have to make it. There are children being born everyday who need us to help them show themselves the way. In the end the truth will set you free to the other side. It is there waiting for us. Open your eyes and you will see it
“Enlightenment is a destructive process. It
has nothing to do with becoming better or being happier. Enlightenment is the
crumbling away of untruth. It’s seeing
through the facade of pretence. It’s the
complete eradication of everything we
imagined to be true.”
