for all people suffering ,,,,,stop blaming others,,,,,,, zen

We humans can spend our life blaming other people , circumstances, or our bad luck and thinking about the way life should have been.

We can die that way if we want. That's our privilege, but it's not much fun.

We have to open up to the enormous game going on ( Life ),  that we're part of with all other humans, and species.

Until we see through the game that doesn't work ( blaming others ), we don't play the real game ( experience your life directly ).

Some people never see though it and die without ever having lived.

That's too bad.

  • I don't buy into the modern Alphabetti Spaghetti Jargon used in modern Mental Health Support. Most of it is created by 'Life Coaches' who believe in Utopia.

    Everyone's entitled to their opinions and beliefs. However, our society was founded on Christian Ideals. Ideals which were moulded over the centuries by Wars, Trials, Persecutions and the lives of those who defended our ways.

    In recent times, however, Social Mobility became a double-edged sword. People with fancy houses, two cars at the driveway and motorised toy cars for their kids still have to depend on budget stores to maintain their lifestyle. The Nouveau Riche still acted out of poverty. The kids were expected to succeed, but received no roadmap. No wonder we have so many Bums with Degrees; such as myself.

    Plus, Cancer, Fibromyalgia - and now Covid - has turned this Nation into paranoid hypochondriacs. The health bubble was set to burst anyway; it just happened to be Fifteen Months Ago.

    I just had to let off some steam with this post.

  • errrrhmmmmm   thanks ............. for this

    Diagnosis : I believe Desmond has lost the his mojo

  • Far from it. Desmond has pulled back the facade of modern life to reveal that we are in fact still all enslaved. Our modern slave masters however use mass psychology to manipulate our basic drives in order to make us be our own  "overseers" and do the administration for them. When they feel the need to "crack the whip" (about every ten years along comes a "recession" or "credit crunch" or "bail in") to focus your attention on PAYING THAT MORTGAGE, whilst the ledger is rebalanced to transfer ownership of 90% of what you made since  the last "adverse financial event" to those who own 90% of everything. (On paper of course, in real life you own what you can hold or at least control) 

    And just to be clear, here:

    A conspiracy THEORIST retells stories.

    A conspiracy ANALYST collates and analyses those stories to winnow out the truth of the matter. 

    A competent conspiracy analyst either goes mad, becomes a "truther", or at best, gets an answer to his question: "since we had the industrial revolution 200 years ago which clearly reduced our need to labour in order to produce food and other neccessities, and the majority of houses were built and paid for decades ago, why do so many people HAVE to go to work to pay a mortgage?"       

    I got exposed to Conspiracy theory during the events of 9/11, where my INFALLIBLE personal sales pitch detector went off later in the day, and I realised that "we are being sold something" here. I can clearly see when opinions are being formed via use of the media. (Vance Packard's "the Hidden Persuaders" will show you how the mechanicals of that works, it works both as a text book and also as a horror story, but is really just information that isn't pushed at you, so no one really gets to read.) IN the case of 9/11 it turns out we were all being "sold" a whole new way of life, what wags (some guy I used to talk about CT with) perfectly described as the "Post truth society". 

    We have now replaced a set of ideals derived from the life and teaching of Jesus Christ and refined over 100's of years of people's efforts in cloisters and church pulpits, which placed us at the apex of human endeavour, with "Wokeness"...

  • That's pretty cool. Who do you have to know to get on those jollies?

  • I don't have my own ppl - don't have a use for it - but I do fly a lot with friends in planes and helicopters - like pop to the Isle of Wight  for lunch....or France on a wine trip ....or fly down the Thames etc..

    I've taxied a Lancaster, back-seated a Spitfire - and I was in a DH Mosquito last month.  Smiley
