More From Jean-Jacques Rousseau

I really believe that an awakening, a greater perspective on our lives and existence is happening. it's really the firing of archetypes that are already built into our brains, we just are able to awaken to a point where we can see a greater beauty in the world, a greater connection and sense of well being. this is what the mystics speak about. the insights fire us up into a greater consciousness on the planet. so it is a greater consciousness at the same time and a greater awareness of our spiritual nature. that is what the 'aha' is.

Right from the moment of our birth, we are under the care and kindness of our parents, and then later on in our life when we are oppressed by sickness and become old, we are again dependent on the kindness of others. since at the beginning and end of our lives we are so dependent on other's kindness, how can it be in the middle that we would neglect kindness towards others?

Wisdom cannot be imparted. wisdom that a wise man attempts to impart always sounds like foolishness to someone else ... knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. one can find it, live it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.” - hermann hesse, siddhartha "we don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us from.

I suppose the thing i most would have liked to have known or been reassured about is that in the world, what counts more than talent, what counts more than energy or concentration or commitment, or anything else - is kindness. and the more in the world that you encounter kindness and cheerfulness - which is its kind of amiable uncle or aunt - the better the world always is. and all the big words: virtue, justice, truth - are dwarfed by the greatness of kindness.
Uncles Kindness Commitment
It comforts me to think that if we are created beings, the thing that created us would have to be greater than us, so much greater, in fact, that we would not be able to understand it. it would have to be greater than the facts of our reality, and so it would seem to us, looking out from within our reality that it would contradict reason. but reason itself would suggest it would have to be greater than reality, or it would not be reasonable.

There's a difference between watching a chef show, which doesn't feel like a reality show compared to the housewives. those shows can, i think, not only lower your iq, but really just knock the wind out of you, because we're all here in this business.
