Success is an attempt
Success is an attempt to meet somebody else’s criteria which is opposite to freedom and happiness.
Le Stalingrad Cafe in Reims, France. It is Monday today, take care of adults.
Think of relations as
Think of relations as of a process. If you consider your relations something ready (like a cake, for example) they cannot be altered, you can only cut them into pieces and feed people of good will. But if relations are dough, you can any time roll it with a rolling pin and start sculpting again.
I don’t see anything valuable
I don’t see anything valuable in “being oneself”. The reason is simple: it is mainstream, it is a commonplace, it is a good of high demand, there is no quality in it. I understand that “being oneself” holds the idea of simplicity and uniqueness at the same time: be yourself and it will let you stand out. It is nonsense to my mind, because real, true simplicity is bloody difficult to come to, and uniqueness is hardly possible to achieve on a universal recipe. You can’t write “Eugene Onegin” without writing Onegin stanza.
Leave this “being yourself” not to be lost in an endless crowd of those who wish to cheaply buy expensive goods. Be more complex, deeper, more interesting. Turn round and go the opposite side. Pretend. Be ingenious, artistic, different. Play yourself.
In our sheo-Tradition eco-Thursday is the day of freedom from emotions. Freedom. From emotions. It is these emotions that give lack of freedom. Give up.
I am thinking of how
I am thinking of how many of us need a partner as a safety parachute to justify why the life has turned out worthless. Though from time to time life seems worthless to everyone. Relations help in this respect as well: one can be comforted with the fact that even own life is not successful, the life of a beloved one is spoilt as well. Remorse and repentance, isn’t it a good content?
A person can’t be
A person can’t be self-realized in a family, just like a pilot can’t be self-realized at an aerodrome. Family is a capsule where a person gets out from into a big world for a different kind of business, and where (s)he is back to.
According to the Sheo-tradition, take care of adults on Monday. It is not a sure thing that they will be able to take care of themselves.
On eco-Thursday, the day of freedom from emotions, we give up to relations, nature, and time.
