To be happy …
The human needs to address and clear up some issues in order for it to remain a state of balance in which it is happy as it was capable of being as a child.
There are many schools of thought about the present moment, perhaps you have heard the idea that no problems can exist right now, and perhaps you have agreed with it, put it in the intellectual book-shelf, and entirely missed the point, and there is something about right now that doesn’t seem right. Maybe you have a bad emotion? Maybe you desire something?
To live in the world of the mind is to in effect live in sort of a prison wherein many opportunities for joy are missed because the mind is busy being a miser and trying to create and sustain its own systems of misery (miser-y).
So, take a look at what you are taking a look at. This, this, this… this… it is. Fundamental differences arise immediately because parts of the personality’s structure wish to dissect, analyze, process, what is being taken in. They miss the point.
What is happening here, and everywhere here, is that each thing you read is an attempt at communication with you. We are trying to talk to you! What differs is the intention.
I intend to reach out with love and show. Showing requires that there is a person in need of showing, and that this post is specifically what this person ought be seeing right now, so that rapport can be reached.
There are a million and one ways to dislike someone. They don’t look quite right, they don’t speak quite right, I don’t like what they are wearing. There are a million and one tiny thrones we can stand upon and rule as tyrant, making ourselves better than someone else. This mistakes the forest for the trees. The hive from the bees? The water from the stream?
Lets say you are a hippy and a cowboy walks up besides you. Automatic judgment takes place because you are dealing with a symbol. To understand this symbol you will pull on everything your mind has ever seen (scene) about cowboys. Movie clips, news stories, you name it.
The media conditions minds this way, if it wants you to believe a certain thing it does not need to ever tell you it is true, only present you with this view so much that it fills the entire buffer zone of your subconscious mind. If it wants you to fear a certain set of characteristics it need only show you a few thousand different fantasies about this situational (sit-com) aspect of reality long enough that, when you finally do encounter this situation in reality, you act exactly as they desire you t o.
How many people hand police-men hamburgers when asked for ID? What is a policemen? Isn’t a policemen a conditioned fear reflex?
When the cowboy walks into the store he sees a hippy.
So what if we were all naked, what would we see then? What if we never invented clothes? What if we were taught to laugh at the very sight of an authority figure, instead of readily feel pride and fear and strange satisfaction in letting them sniff our behinds? Would they have any power? What if the Pope was hilarious, and when he asked you for some gold you gave him carrots? What then? What if that was what happened in church, you give carrots? What if everyone said “A-chooo!” instead of “hallelujah?” ?
What makes normalicy normal?
You see children do not have these roadmaps branded into them by the world, so they have no choice but to be constantly honest at all times. The middle of a grocery store is an appropriate place to begin dancing and singing loudly. It is fine to slurp your food without using utensils.
Who on earth has the right to say otherwise?
So who is it inside you, like me, who really wants to be heard, seen, and noticed, and is hiding in fear of being rejected? What is it you really want to do, and how could it possibly be that bad?
Do you really want to put your arm around her? Is she really too beautiful? Are you really that much of a creep or a loser? Do you really want to play an instrument? What is it, that you really, really, really, want to do?
Who is it that put the excuse in you that says “I"d better not”.
Did they get you to trade?
I mean what do you really want to do? What would change your life so that the world would be fresh and beautiful? Do you swallow all your pure intentions? Who are you if you are a swallower of what is good. Are you your own enem6y? Do you really want to change careers? Do you really want to stop yourself from doing what you really want to do?
What consequence, imaginary entirely and placed into you by society, could be so bad and terrible, that it is worse than not being who you really are?
Isn’t it okay to be manic, enthusiastic, and wacky, be you 8 or 80? Isn’t it okay ?
Who would tell you otherwise?
Someone tell me why it is wrong to go into a store and stand on a table and yell like a barnyard animal?
Anyone who answers that question is your enemy and their voice is constantly running itself inside your mind, pretending it is you, telling you what not to do and why you shouldn’t do it.
When that voice stops completely you are free. When you have nothing inside of you telling you what you should be doing, when you have no day-dreams or fantasies, when you have no ambitions or dreams, when you only have what it is right in front of you, and its as huge as a tower of ice-cream to be eaten, you have lucid dream and stepping down the stairs is a bewilderingly fresh activity, and you don’t really know what your keys are for or why you should lock yourself in and out of wherever it is you “live”.
