As I try to make sense of my world and find order, I see chaos. But it’s not the chaos in my life that overwhelms me. What overwhelms me is how people function within that chaos. What drives them. How fear turns beautiful chaos into a dark abyss.
What makes me sad as I try to make sense of people in this world, is how people are so polarized and pulled into directions that they don’t always choose. They just arrive there, as if traveling on different trains. For so many people it’s always about the destination. But in fact, the destination is an expiry date. So they choose to make the destination about bucket lists and compliance lists instead. As if being human were a program that we all need to perfect by doing certain things to qualify and, therefore, arrive. And we make sacrifices, too. The level of vindictiveness in humanity is higher than we choose to believe in our 1st world nations. It’s sad to watch people exercise vindictiveness to rein supreme over others, when others suffer.
And even our monetary systems tells us this to an extent, that in order to be the most valuable human being, you need to win the investment race. And our flight and fright response tells us that we need to win this race so we don’t fall prey to the vindictiveness of others.
So here’s my question: Does net worth help you end up your most happy, most fulfilled, when your train drops you off at your final destination? Are there other ways to conquer the dark side of humanity without obsessing over the investment race where it’s a 1 to 1 ratio: money equals happiness?
Your mission to achieve Superhumanness: Fall in love with being human, not with being rich. Conquer the dark side of humanity by harnessing your superhumanity. Sure we can have both wealth and give a shit and many people do, but I am starting to see a pattern in a fear based society where people love their wealth more than humankind. That’s not who you are.
Be kind along the journey and remember, you got this!
