What with the recent Trump shit and the increasing shallowness of social media and media in general (leading to the widespread dumbing down and loss of individuality of our people), I must remind you:
It's all a distraction. Don't let the outside world cause you to neglect your inner work. In a time where privacy is illusory, we have become so involved in the stories of others. It is more important now than ever before to keep time for your Self. We need to be stronger, smarter, sharper, to rise up against all the bullshit going on around us. If we merely immerse ourselves in it daily, it will consume our minds, and we will surely drown.
And in your solitude, must I remind you:
Ego death. The most important death of your life. Dissect yourself in the mirror, go beyond the surface, and do not deny any parts of your being. Accept your whole self, the wonderful and the woeful alike. Honesty. Be consistent with your Self. Truth. Allow your mistakes to mould a better you. Learn. Let go of that which no longer serves you. Renew. Renew. Renew.
