Category: Apathy

Are we served by holding beliefs that block or discourage our paying attention to life and the world around us? Is it in any way practical?

We are freed from apathy when we begin to understand life as the individual living beings we naturally are. We are free from apathy when we aren’t looking for social roles, judging our partners when they weep in despair, or when they loose focus in a surge of frustration.

    Life Unrealized

    Tell me about the life you are living, I will show you a life unrealized. All this stuff that rules you, why does it? Do you know? There are rules of social interaction, that though I am not well versed in tracking, I am not blind to. There are forms of expression that supposedly support,…
