There’s a particular story in the Bible that I can’t get off my head. I pondered on it first in 2018 and each time I think about it, the message appears more profound than it appeared previously. Just follow my analogy:

This is not about him and I don’t mean to insult: I genuinely don’t understand how ANYONE would look at a country (which is essentially a bunch of people with varying incentives and values) and say, let’s pray for the country. It registers as insane. What does that even mean?

My guess is that the human conscience is like a triangle inside the heart. When we act against what we know to be right, the triangle turns and its edges rip the heart a little. If a heart is ripped too often, the triangle spins easier and faster. And eventually may spin freely.

Your worth is yours to play with. Others coming in and going either take your attention away from it or highlight it. Either way, your worth stays with you. Congratulate yourself.

When you deeply understand the human condition, it feels unbearable at first but eventually, it deepens your compassion. You’re less surprised by weakness, less scandalized by contradiction, less arrogant about strength. You can live inside the tension because you expect it.

on the internet 9-5ers are painted broke because the real 9-5ers are so cultured and economically literate to not flaunt their earnings to gain cheap social media status.

Thanks for asking. What I mean is that every win costs something. To gain time, you sacrifice comfort. To gain success, you sacrifice rest or relationships. Even joy often comes with the loss of an illusion. Winning and losing are not opposites; they are transactions.

@Mrpossidez Sir,please I don't seem to understand when you said, "you're always losing something in the process of winning". Can you please explain or make references?

How can anyone be spiritually awake if they’re always so scared to lose, to die? That reveals a very immature posture of the inner world, one that clings too much. How can you trust the vision of a man who is always wanting? Always desiring? Always avoiding the duality of life?

The goal of religion, as I see it, is not only to save us from our impulses but to steady our minds for loss and death. Full acceptance of loss and an intimate sense of our own mortality is the price of spiritual clarity. Only those who accept them are truly awakened.

Christians, like all religious people should strive for spiritual awakenness. For the spiritually awakened, the fear of loss or death shouldn’t be so terrifying that every avenue is seized to avoid it. To live in that fear is already at odds with awakening itself.

It’s simply human to pray and to want the best for ourselves, even in moments when it’s selfish or hypocritical. That in itself should make our need-based prayers a sobering indulgence, at best. Not something we enforce as a way of life.

A friend once told me he thinks I have a praying mother because I always seem to “win”. First off, every goal achieved begins a series of events. Your current problems are a result of past wins, so technically you’re always losing something in the process of winning.

I can’t imagine fasting and praying every time I have a bad dream. My idea of praying is simply listening to my inner mind. I meditate and leave myself porous to meaning. That’s it. I haven’t prayed for anything specific in over 5 yrs. It comes, it doesn’t, all part of life!

Loss is not a bad thing and there’s no reason you deserve to win every time. But religion has a funny way of creating this exceptionalism which is unironically why we never come together to solve our problems. Life is for living and death is the cost of life. Nothing crazy here.

DO NOT PLAY WITH YOUR DREAMS. Learnt that from my MFM days. Any funny dream of loss, FAST & PRAY.

Ideas truly change the world. But it happens with people changing themselves in response to an idea that changes the world. An idea is only as powerful as the pain someone is willing to endure for it. Otherwise it is air, elegant but functionally inconsequential.

But it soon becomes bearable because the very act of seeing it gives you clarity. You’re no longer flailing in confusion. You can name the fear and you recognize its disguises. You develop a strange solidarity with all other humans. We are all improvising against the same abyss.

Especially when most people around you aren’t built to think as deeply, it’s unbearable at first. Because once you see how the fear of death, the terror of the unknown shape the coping mechanisms we invented, you can’t return to innocence. That sight can hollow things out.

A bit sad how we forget things, sometimes even the most memorable ones, if we have no one to tell them to.
