I am troubled daily about the increase in fake living, which is a divergence from what matters and is the reason why we are here. Let’s look at what doesn’t matter…
What doesn’t matter is symbolism, intentions, hopes, wishes, blessings, prayers, social media posts, desire, and anything else that either isn’t real, or worse still, isn’t real but pretends to be real.
How many wars have been fought over religious symbols? How many relationships have been wasted in hope? How many social media posts have changed the world? Proxies for living pervert our experiences because we take them as real, and we take the absence of them as real.
What matters is what is done in action. On earth. Something observable through your senses, and not just your mind. If someone is unavailable for a relationship, they take action to overcome that, and that is real. If someone wants to be with someone but has something that interferes, they prioritize the person and neglects that something, and that is real. If someone wants to build a life with someone, in life they take concrete measures to make that happen. Everything else is pretend. Make-believe. A farce that is an attempt to bamboozle another person by using excuses, stories, mysteries, and sentiment to alter the reality that exists for real.
Take some time and reperceive things for their degree of reality, and see that this is binary. If it’s not clearly real, then it’s clearly fake. Insist on being real and accepting only real things so that your life is not wasted. Trust me, this is important.
