all in all, i have found that the ole ego is is required, however, is not one's true ideation. to pull off the multi-faceted roles, required of family, friends, just people in general, one requires a transmission. it is merely a refinement of shifting, even a pairing down of many roles into more general categories where fewer shifts give way to smoothness.
i've even discovered that a lot of traits i had suffered as negatives, are indeed of positive resource. like, it is quite alright to be an very good at being an arsehole, if in fact that all the circumstances allow. otherwise, you don't pull out a wrench if you need another kind of tool.
also, copy skills are best, however, there is nothing wrong with behavioral mechanisms that help one manuever/navigate unfamiliar ground, or even their familiar ground. Life is a kinda proving ground for a healthy admix of behavioral mechanisms and coping skills.
like, one mans junk is another man's treasure. my behavioral mechanism that i may suffer, might with another be the very coping skill they are hoping for.
being humble is taking what you got, along with what you may have put into practice, and just doing your best, as your are.
also, it is important to remember, that even selfishness is redeemable, for without it, there would be no road, as no one would undertake such a lonely way through self-persecution arriving at one's true self.
folks wonder where is this road, yet do not realize they themselves are the very road, each in every of One body of Makind/Humanity. Suffering is unavoidable. suffering the suffering is avoidable.
but, we do not disagree.
the most humbling awareness is when you realize what's really taking place all around you. the shear magnitude of our co-worlds [persons] as one world [all people] happening at once, like a spinning top that does not fall, is such certitude beyond one's self, that humility cannot but respond.
the most negative force in our one world is those people whom with doom and gloom cast negative judgement upon what they are thinking to see. they goe as far as negatively judging being human even as they too are human, as if being human as we all cannot but be, is the worst imaginable "thing" to be. cumulatively, this gathered condemning force is the hatred which is even adversarial to them which in their own judgemental force have brought "it" to bear upon us all.
there is nothing that is greater than is Human, such that being Human is nothing to be taken for granted.
the autonomy of one's awareness would be grave error, for all of nature reacts from awareness, and all of nature responds in kind, in that all of nature is what nature cannot but be. partnering, as nature exemplifies is the key modality, for in nature a reaction merely brings the awareness up into the conscious realm of activity, to therefrom respond. where with man, man's reactions rule mankind, with little or no responce time accordingly given wherein all concerned is/are protected. this is the difference between mindful and mindless. nature rest within serenity, reaction stirs, responce is given. man never rests, thus is ever reactive.
nothing may be responsively given, if not from rest, even as this going through reactivity comes. this is why peace always at hand is arrested, within laws that mankind having not rested within, are ever willfully broken simply because man will not rest.
are we to claim that we do not know how to rest? ahhh, yet who among us, does not yearn for rest. can anyone yearn for that which is not within them that they might from yearn?
if i am churning butter then i understand what is rest. if i am making homemade wine then i understand what is rest.
we do know everything are able to think upon everything from our knowing; yet we do not apply that understanding which our road reveals to us every sleepless waking moment.
endlessness or infinity, what would these be at all, if not for us whom consciously in a few words, ply our ability to ponder such as would not be if not for our being that through conscious recognition, sees?
the utility of words is not perforce given through humans to in turn iradicate our humanous. this utility is rather ours, such that we realize ourselves within our co-ability to understand being Human.
words negatively bent against one's self, is why we are all afraid today, as with any day gone by. is why life is so cheaply expendable, so much so that we won't even acknowledge how expendable life has become, are co-willing to sacrifice anything, even life as a suggestively mere "thing", so that our fears are lessened. yet, where is our rest in that?
there is no such thing as a school of thought. there is only us whom think, us whom imagine to know. however, we are all within this samely together, equally so'd, equally reaping.
when we've had enough, i reckon we will have had enough. therein we'd all be so'd within our new co-beginning, for having had enough is the end of "it" as surrendered "things" that had held us to our distraction from one another.

if we inundate the natural barrier reef, we cannot blame the tides eroding of the shored, even as a manmade wall of thinking would imagine to know, with holding back the tide's natural erosionability through manmade erosion of the rightful tide.
a pleasure reading you,

p.s. knowledge may be silent, but the outcrys of human beings reveal what knowledge sown without understanding reaps, and unfortunately is sown toward the next generations to themselves reap.
