How true! I have been finding out the hard way that I seem to lose friends, if they ask me how I got to the place I am now. I share only the simplistic views, and tell them to walk away from the drama. Then every time I post a “philosophy of life”, I get emails or ims from my friends telling me to get off the high horse, or stop blogging about them. Usually I will just back off, and continue my journey. My hope is they can at least start to seek for enlightenment on their own. Great post!

Absolutely not. i publish negatives as well as positives so that people can always get the full picture.

Social conditioning, hmm… thanks for the explanation, what you mean is people find it hard deviating from the “norm”. We are born, go to school, graduate from college, Start a blog (with wordpress of course why would you want to change that =). ) Marry have kids and then die.Its sad. you dont really enjoy life until you have lived outside the box. Great article. Super blog! Willl subscribe.

The worst is pissing off your own family. And this is usually inevitable … :-)

It’s like a human’s life story in a short article. Nice post with pooping and cryings.. This is true for all. I just wish not to sit in front of tv and poop a lot after retire.

Unfortunate, but true. Only when we realize that what we were taught as far as what and who we should be in life doesn’t work for us do we start our search for the better path. Which as you said, is the road less traveled. Sometimes that doesn’t happen until late in life. Blessings

Well our thoughts and feelings come from somewhere, and in most cases I do think it is from social conditioning. It’s just some of us are less easilly conditioned than others.

“Now the curious thing about this life path, is that no matter how little you enjoy it on a day to day basis, you won’t wish you had done things differently, you’ll simply resent those who did.”

Looking further into this, why people continue living through cycles of pleasure and pain is most interesting. Some would say social conditioning but that’s just a fluffy way of saying it is your own set of thoughts and feelings that keep you trapped, nothing else.

What do you think Jonathan?
