Reading harold_maude's journal

If a person wants to know their place in this world, who they are and what work they are to attend to, they must, without exception, become observers to a certian extent.

Like birdwatchers, who rise up early at dawn to catch their prey as it were, focused on the search and then when a bird is spotted they look through binoculars to see what kind of bird it is that they are looking at.
So it is when a person is trying to figure out the details of who they are.

Activities at this time, need to be kept at a minimum because everything outside the search becomes a major distraction.
The search is seasonal, it would seem as well.

A journal kept for the purpose of observation and thoughts is most helpful durring the search, because a person who is searching to find out about the what's and why's of their life has steped into the role of researcher.

There is a saying, "know thy self" and to that end, I raise my glass and say "yes".
Knowing yourself is so vital to avoiding unnessiary crap along the way.

Even more crucial to a peaceful inside, is finding out why you are here, and what your life work is about.

But unfortunately, in this world, that is not what is being shoved at the human race. What is being shoved at the human race is to become a uniform bland group of brain dead bodies that are easily controlled.

If one were to study history, and look at all the attempts to subdue the human race, with the end result being a selective group or groups, there has always been some form of genocidal act that has been part of the process.
But in this time in history is different.
What makes this time different from all the others?
How people are being disabled. The powers that have designs to rule completely with an iron hand, seem to believe that alive bodies are more useful than just mowing them down like so much over grown grass.

The only purpose I can see in this is the eventuality of a self propetuating food source, or a massive army of drones.
Drones addicted to things that it believes are nessiary to the very act of survival.

While the actual act of survival has been systematicly and slowly errased from the human memory.

The act of knowning yourself is a protection against this. Living according to the dictates of your life's work and purpose may take you out of the main stream, and if you are true to the purposes of your life, then you will find things falling away.
And the idea that you need this or that becomes a moot point.

It's an awesome place to be. And from what I can see of it, is that those things that fall away, loose all meaning. And they loose their hold on you.
It's an awesome place, and it doesn't matter if your the only one there, because you get to have this rich peace inside, so no matter what you face, you know that you are where you need to be.

Cheers.

It only looks that way because your standing on your head.
