I often wonder what other creatures that perhaps have a superior intellect in comparison to us think when they are looking down on us (this is assuming that such exists).the reason I say looking down is because humans look down on animals, we believe we matter, we are above them, and our abusive and negligent behavior is proof of this, Very few of us see them as living creatures. As humans we are able to make distinctions between human and animal behavior, and when a fellow human being doesn't act in accordance with what other humans deem appropriate behavior, we label such a person an “animal”. This is not always a fair assessment as animals possess greater emotional intelligence that a lot of humans are without. Half the time I would rather deal with animals that people because animals unlike people will never switch up on you, there will never be a time where a sheep will eat meat. Human beings are one thing today and tomorrow they are something totally different. I know a person adapts to situations as they play out, but I’m most certainly sure this by no means entails being a chameleon
The problem
with us humans is that the world is at our feet we are spoilt for choice,
variety is most definitely spicing up our lives. We are always looking for the
next big amazing, mind-blowing thing that will complete and fill all the voids
that form part of our makeup. Voids that are there on purpose and the only way
each of us will be able to fill them is by being real with ourselves. There are
so many nooks and crannies within every single one of us, where the truth about
what is making us empty lies embedded, but because so many of us are not yet
ready to go searching in those nooks, we want everything we lay our eyes on,
hoping that it will fill the voids and we won’t have to make that trip to
faraway land.
The newly acquired piece doesn't always fit
the puzzle, if it does it’s only momentarily, the feeling wears off and we find
ourselves right where we started. We are known to want what others have not
because of need, just so they are not the only ones in possession of whatever
our eyes saw, now you have what the other person has but you are still unhappy,
it doesn't paint your soul with all shades of wonderful. You remain empty.
people who let go of worldly possessions and choose to live much simpler lives
have been reported to lead fulfilling lives, they care about the needs of others and realize that we are all connected ,and as such our paths will cross from time to time,
so the best thing that one can do for their peace of mind is to live in harmony
with others, to give only of yourself what will be useful to others, to be kind
to yourself every day and to make a concerted effort to heal the places in you
that have experienced unkind treatment in the past, to remind yourself that ,
you matter, write it on a wall somewhere in your house if you have to. To learn
a new skill and follow through with every single thing you start no matter how
small or insignificant I may be, if it’s important to you that’s all that
matters, other people should cheer you on or render support, whatever you
require of them. Celebrate each success, get lost in the moment and allow it to
envelope you, do not dismiss it as we often do and last but not least give
yourself permission to be happy, you are allowed.
