H,
We cannot escape the truth: life is horrible on a daily basis for a lot
of people. Too many. Life is also less than ideal for the majority of people on
earth. This has nothing to do with modern life or ancient life. When you fix
the things on top, the things beneath will begin to show. When you fix the
material condition of the world, the spiritual condition of the world will
become much louder.
It is like reality is this joke: fake obstacles put in our way, so we
never look at the deeper things. The rat race so we never pause and ponder,
ambition so we never listen to each other and sex on a pedestal, so we never
look in love or act in love or make love with love. The lesson may come around
but let us hope it is not too late.
It will not be late in eternity, but it may be late to live this life on
earth a little bit fuller. We might waste our whole lives following these smoke
signals that lead nowhere. I have a feeling that regret will mean nothing in
the reality to come, but why suffer now? It is not enough to say, “it will all
come around” when it is here right now.
