The Self Help Movement has really lain a giant turd in the cereal bowl.
This stuff about 'self esteem' can really fuck your shit up.
It's like sugar...a little is OK...but you are NOT supposed to eat it by the lovin' spoonful.
Once you get hopped up and strung out on that goofball...it can be hard to kick.
A little bit of 'me'...soon turns into "ME ME ME!!!"
Nothing but "ME".
This won't work. It's just not sustainable.
The Island of Me is a pretty small place.
It's a balancing act...like anything.
You ARE worthy, and it's important to believe you are, and what you do in this life matters...
But there are others to take into consideration.
Who are JUST AS WORTHY.
The trick is to remember this.
With every breath...
remember yourself...
& others...
in that same breath.
THAT is how we stay connected.
Giving to others...
enriches yourself by default.
As the yuletide season takes us in his vice-like grip...
that is my Xmas meditation.
This time of year is not for me...
it is for other people.
& in the end...that cannot be anything but good for me.
Peace, love and a better...MUCH BETTER...
New year.
2017....here we come.
