What really matters

Attachments to all sorts of beings, thoughts or things kind of describes the person that is attached. Generally attachments to people is regarded as good. At least if the attachment has a positive character. Altruistic and balanced kin relationships fall into this category. Dubious or even perverse relationships do not. People can also be attached to beliefs, ideologies, dogmas, ideas or theories. Quite often such attachments are cause for disagreement or conflict with those with different opinions. Others are attached to their house or car or iPad. Money is also a thing most are quite attached to, even when aware that the financial system was designed to crash (so that the banks can repossess goods, commodities and real estate and anything else that represents a certain sum of money).

Humans neatly create categories to fit in different types of things that they're attached to. Some things are sort of brutally rammed into a category to make it fit while matters that nonetheless resist being filed in a category usually give reason to be utterly confused. People like categories; it makes life in the comfort zone ordered and manageable. Lately, however, an increasing number of attachments appeared to be less attractive than was commonly assumed before they were presented to be added to awareness. Detaching from all such things is a process often reluctantly accepted and vigorously refused most of the time.

A major part of life to many is building attachments - a process that is usually only terminated by a person's demise. The dead do not have an attachment to earthly matters. The living do. At least this is generally accepted as being logical and true. The systems humankind created, encourage such things by basically making life impossible or agonizing for those who refute the mindset offered by the social system, corporate guidelines or legislation, regardless if it is just or not.

But is it true because systems dictate such conduct, reward compliance and punish denial? As long as your attachments seem safe and well, there is little reason to give these matters some thought. The programmed failure of systems may nevertheless urge people to reconsider the values of old. People have to become detached from all sorts of things before they actually use the brain nature gave them to figure out what the meaning of attachment really is, what its purpose is and to what it leads.

In the deep dungeons of the mind of most, there is a slumbering feeling that a terrifyingly increasing number of things are very wrong with today's world. But the relentless propaganda perpetually pounded into the average brain alongside an unconstitutional and inhumane lawmaking incites the fear to deviate from the general consensus that has been hammered into the commonly accepted awareness of the masses. This can only happen if people do not bother to think for themselves and do not listen to the wise whispers of their intuition that is subdued by the induced loud screams of the imposed consciousness. Perhaps bear in mind, with regard to this that the world has morphed from a kind of hopeful outlook on the future in the 60's of the previous century, to the expectation that a dystopian time that the aware and critical thinkers fear is ahead of all.

Have a most wonderful day!
