As adults we slowly begin to question those things we have been taught.

Hello world. The following was written 3/9/2018.

This morning I found myself responding to a question a brother was asking. The following was their question and my response.

My brother asks, “Have you always had to scrap and hustle to survive and now that you don’t have to, you don’t know how to NOT do that?”

My response, “Good morning brother. What you are experiencing is part of the journey all of Humanity must go through. Each Being is raised and trained to think, believe, be and perceive themselves, their brothers and the world through the lens of an egoistic thought system. We, each of us, are taught that we are “required” to accept the judgmental labels, opinions, dictates and another’s authority over us. That we do not get a choice in who we are, what we do, and how we are going to be or act. That we HAVE to or are REQUIRED to do as we are being told or we will be punished and those punishments would come in myriad forms with different levels of pain and suffering attached to them.

As adults we slowly begin to question those things we have been taught. We begin to look at these things we do and ask ourselves why we are doing them. Especially when those items are causing us great pain and suffering because it is something that has never resonated as being True for us. It never felt right that this is what we are to do. Use the guy next to us to get that job, that raise, the next rung on the corporate ladder…
