Some thoughts About Life
The Problem:
Most people right now, are faced with two major problems.
- Health issues
- Internal conflicts about something
You have to be sensible about your health. And value, and take care of it. That is a given. The less health problems you have, the better off you are.
The Other Problem
Seems everyone is really facing some internal conflicts right now. Being torn between two or more conflicting ideas, doubts, or worries. And really have those kinds of problems long enough; will lead to having some serious health issues.
So in the event you want to avoid having serious health problems, you have to resolve the internal conflicts in such a way that it doesn’t damage your health.
It is the mark of an educated mind, to be able to entertain an idea without accepting it. — Aristotle
However, holding two conflicting ideas in your mind, and going back and forth between the two; does very little good. It causes worry. You want to avoid things, that cause worry. So really you have to choose which of the two or more conflicting ideas you want to accept. Really a person would have to know, what the exact truth of the matter is!!
There are a lot of lies in this world. And many people will try to hide the real truth of the matter from anyone they can. That, is fact!
If you wanted to know the real truth, do you think that you could handle it? That is a big question, and a loaded one at that. Because what some people eat for breakfast, is far more than other people can stomach for brunch.
If you were used to thinking at least five impossible things before breakfast, you might be able to handle the truth. In the event you like to have your ears tickled, you might have some trouble with the idea of getting the ideas into your head.
Some Things
There are some things, that defy logic. And, I will tell you this; the whole truth is more than most people want to hear. You would have to be really prepared to hear some things that don’t make a lot of sense, to be able to understand it.
And, the problem with that; is it might cause you to have an existential crisis. That would be bad. Most people, don’t want to go there. They are neither prepared for that, or want to experience it first hand.
Enjoy your illusions
Take the time today, to enjoy the illusions you have. Watch nature, and go for a walk. Listen to the birds sing, and watch the flowers grow. Be sure to make time, to watch the sunset, or sunrise when it comes around. Those things seem to be pretty stable, and not in any danger of being turned over.
Conflicts
Some conflicts are easier to solve than others. Trying to decide if you should have beef or chicken, shouldn’t be a serious hardship. While you shouldn’t eat both in the same meal, you could have one or the other, two days in a row.
On the other hand, trying to decide if you should eat your neighbor, might have serious hardships that go with it.
See the scale? I’m joking of course; however, you can understand the scale of things a little better when put in that perspective.
You should love your neighbor as yourself, and invite them to eat with you. Or they should invite you to what they are having.
Some internal conflicts are more difficult to solve than others. Sometimes you need to be able to talk about them, and have someone that will listen to you, and understand both points of view. Then, they can help you see the problems with one side or the other of the problem.
Likewise, if you are having an existential crisis, you may be having a problem of trying to decide what illusions to hold on to, and which ones to let go of. And really society has some things, that everyone accepts as being true.
So, some people in this world; believe the world is flat. And other people have proof that it isn’t. They however won’t listen, or be reasonable about the proof, and choose to believe the world is flat. They are living a lie?
What if the real truth where known? Would you want to hear it? If you believe the world is flat, it might be some comfort to know the world is really round.
The real question you should be asking yourself: Why does it matter? The ground exists the same way. The earth hasn’t fallen out of it’s spot, and left you floating in space, right = ?
Regardless of if the world, is flat or round. We still can live here. Right = ?
What matters is that we keep things in perspective. Work within what is reasonable. If the world was flat, someone would have thrown themselves over the side of the world by now. And, it would be on film.
Being picky about what is accepted, is a matter of the facts. And really when the facts come in, a person has to be reasonable enough to accept the facts like they are. You shouldn’t be able to make the facts up as you go along. Not unless your building a whole new universe, and are really God.
Otherwise, Respect your universe.
