Inner Practice: This Is A Contradictory World

This is a contradictory world.

 

We are material rich but we are time poor.

We yearn for relationships yet we have no patience to build them.

We eat but we do not taste. 

We sleep yet we are not rested.

We say we are busy with our lives but we spend so much time scrolling through the lives of strangers.

We like to be healthy yet we dislike the journey for healing.

We buy all the fancy wellness gadgets but we spend as much or even more on intoxicants.

We own all the latest technology to organise our lives yet we cannot even be punctual most of the time.

We body build yet we are weak minded.

We go for holidays to find happiness yet we come back as unhappy as ever. 

We smile on the outside but inside we are screaming in pain.

We want to be somebody but we try so hard to be like someone else.

We want love but we hate to love first.

 

Let it be. 

 

Let it be. 

 

Because this is a contradictory world.
