Default Re: A message to the doom and gloomers

Deep Gravelly Cinematic Voice:

Fear !! It knows you're alone !

I've posted a thread somewhere about this... too long ago to remember the exact ins and outs... but it occured to me that eventually there is too much to worry about. Negative ETs, FEMA camps, Planet X, Illuminati plans, swine flu, yada, yada, erm, going grey?!

This then struck me as suspicicous. It can't all happen ! lol... what a day that would turn out to be.

Then it seems to me, we just invest in that state of mind because there is some kind of pay-off to it. Generally this involves living in the future now, and not living in the now-now, which means getting up off your butt and doing something with your life.

Having just watched 'What the Bleep' yesterday, (is there a thread somewhere here on that? I'd like to comment...) I can now also see that there is a chemical payoff to that state of mind. Just like indulging in chocolate or looking at pictures of fairly naked women advertising chocolate. (ahem). Or bullying someone, or being mean, or gossiping.

Or anticipating that the Xargon of Grath is going to pull your adenoids out through your sphincter. Mm. Yum Yum

Once we see the whole fear thing as a state of mind, you come to realise that NONE OF IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. At least not in the way your mind thinks it will right now. Doesn't mean bad things won't happen to us at some point. I mean I will probably stand on a garden rake again at some point in my life. But the pain generated from actual harm is different from the one caused by worrying about pseudo harm. This is not constructive nor useful.

So we really can be happy, be one... and enjoy this moment. Because that's all there is. go running into the future... and your mind will miss the party happening now.

Thanks for the thread Brinty ! Clark, you are as always a great read on this site. Nice to have you back.

I better put those pictures away now.....
