Poison of Easy Friends - When Sovereignty becomes an Excuse for Comfort.
We have cultivated superficial friendships, because today we are in the need of having relationships that hold us to no standard, so that we can be comfortable in our own bullshit.
We are ready to spend copious amounts of time with the most superficial of people, because they makes us feel comfortable in our substandard behaviour with our own self.
They do not care if your life is advancing or stagnating. As long as you are there when they need a good time. So that together one can ignore the fact that life is inviting us constantly to take responsibility for ourselves.
We cultivate these friendships in a manner that we excuse the flaws of our friends way easier than those actually really close to us.
Friends become those people where everything goes. We battle with our nearest loved ones expecting them to achieve a mental image of perfection, while our friends get the joker, where everything goes.
Our friends often being the ones who can speak jokingly or mockingly down to us, where if a parent or relative spoke the same way to us, we would immediately claim to be offended or disrespected. Our friends being the place where we live out our substandard hypocrite behavior, while demanding from the rest to live up to the highest standards we can conceive of.
A true friend used to be someone who told you the hard truth of your own hypocrisy, not someone who enabled it.
A true friend was not a means to entertainment and pleasure. But someone who was a precious mirror of truthfulness.
A true friend was not someone who would speak with you behind the back of your other friends, but someone who would stop you in your tracks and let you know that they will not talk about the other in the absence of their presence, out of respect.
A true friend is not the one who appears like a free-spirit claiming wanting to be sovereign, but in fact is just using sovereignty as an excuse to be lazy and comfortable and just spend their time having superficial fun.
There are many whose claim of wanting to be sovereign, is nothing but that, an excuse not to take their life in their own hands and make something of it. They want luxury without educating themselves what the difference is between true quality and bullshit. They want their needs met without needing to exercise any effort.
Sovereignty was our Birthright, but it is something that requires true effort and work. Sure maybe you do not want to work for somebody else, BUT are you willing to at least work for yourself? Are you willing to put effort in having your needs met? Cause last time I checked the Tiger is provided for by Nature, but not by simply lazing around all day hoping the prey will just come and offer itself freely.
I see 99% of people acting as if sovereignty worked like that. Sorry to break it to you, but that Tiger when he goes for a Hunt, is expending as much energy necessary as to the point that if he fails to catch his prey he is literally faced with the possibility of starvation and death. His needs are met, nature is filled with prey, but without effort the 1000 antelopes at his disposal in his immediate environment would appear as if they were scarce to the point of extinction, since there is not one that is suicidal enough to just offer itself to you.
All those friendships we cultivate, in which we hear only the problems and excuses they have for themselves for being stuck in their situation or not being able to advance meaningfully in life, well those are the same friendships where we go gather our own excuse for not taking a step forward. We use them as the ruler with which to measure our own success, most of the time simply to excuse ourselves from not achieving the degree of success we aspired to. Probably without realizing that one of the reasons we fail to inspire them, is because by engaging with them on this level we are just feeding the same delusion in them. They see you appear and show up for all the time-killing that they invite you to, so they realize you are not advancing in your own life meaningfully, since there is nothing appearing valuable enough to keep you from saying no to killing some time.
So we kill time together with those who have time to kill. And then we wonder why we are so miserable and unhappy and displeased in the end. The pleasure they bring only lasts as long as the time we spend busy killing. But when we get back home, we feel just as empty as before, we laze around and enjoy comfort until again we are hit by a small blast of boredom, which is the invitation to sit with that boredom, and not the invitation to use it to jump up and plan the next event in which you kill time again for pleasure.
We wonder why we remain stuck in the same dynamics, in the same problems, even though we think to ourselves I've been working so hard on myself. All we did was get used to using the excuse that I am working on myself, to be free of responsibilities, instead of having used it to actually set the priority straight as to what we wish to take responsibility for.
A devil's circle in which we feel like we are doing something different, but instead we are doing exactly what every centralized authority is hoping for us to do. Only be capable of using your time for "Fun", that is what the whole entertainment industry was about.
Make "Idle Meaningless Fun" appear as meaningful.
Series like "Friends, How I met Your Mother, add any other film or series of choice" all have been training us like lab rats to become used to this dynamic. Especially with the rise of automation, the elite does not want a population that is able to have meaningful fun by enjoying the responsibilities one chooses to cultivate. The Elite want a world which can't take responsibility for itself because it has lost all FUN in it, due to the way it was conditioned into us, by eroding our fun in responsibility through making us responsible about meaningless things, in our life and work.
Nobody wants to be responsible there is no Fun behind it. What people really want, even when they claim they want to be sovereign, is the paradox of wanting to have nothing but a week long w-end without needing to be responsible about anything.
They want their week to look like an eternal Friday night of debauchery. And even the Elite of the World as perverted as they might be, have only got so much control, because they are having FUN being responsible for us. Their amusement is not in having an eternal w-end, their amusement is having amassed the responsibility of nations and being able to conduct them behind the scenes as they see fit.
As you are busy having your meaningless fun, every Rothshild/Rockefeller/King/Politician is smiling! That is one Prey for them less to have to worry about, that is one price that has voluntarily come up to the predator asking to killed.
The rulers of this world chose to have Fun with responsibility. No matter how perverted they abuse of that power, I have tremendous respect for these Powerful People, because they actually challenged themselves, because they have kept on fighting for their cause no matter how ridiculed or hated they were by others.
While they have acquired sovereignty through making us dependent of them. I do not blame them, because we willingly at every step fell for exactly what they needed us to fall for.
Their only goal was to condition responsibility out of us. To confuse it out of us. To give us a feeling that fighting for sovereignty means fighting for my freedom of amusement. When in fact sovereignty is finding the amusement in the freedom of being able to choose my responsibilities.
May we drown and suffocate in our own disgusting need for amusement and meaningless "Fun", and if we choose to cultivate that then we should no longer complain about the state of the world or the elites that control us, because we want the same thing they want for us.
Keep us as domesticated animals that have no survival instinct, no capacity to fend for oneself, no idea what it means to be responsible. Only able to have "Fun" and "Play".
Humanity achieved great works of wonder, but these achievements were not built by a people that spent their time in idle meaningless fun, but from people who found the very-fact of being a responsible co-creator the most Fun thing one could hope for. They were not bored, they were rather overwhelmed with the amount of fun hidden in all things. They had fun observing their surroundings, they had fun cultivating relationships with plants, animals, and the forces of nature.
Those big parties and festivals and orgies and celebrations, are all nothing but the remnants of the end-stages of those civilizations. When the accomplishments of those who had been responsible began to serve as the basis of comfort for others. Those others instead of finding fun in the complexities of Life, became lazy and knew only how to play, drink, dance, and fuck. And at that stage it never took long for the entire culture to fall apart.
Sure the gems of wisdom that were cultivated some survived the fall of their respective culture once it had degenerated, but merely as tokens of history to remind humanity, that the great truths and wisdom's of life have been discovered and lost more than once.
Merely to remind us that those wisdom's are universal and as a lesson to us not to fall into the same repetitive cycle of Rise and Fall.
Reminders for us that the fundamental objective of life is to assure the understanding in your soul, that you are here as co-creator free to be responsible for yourself or not. And if you choose not to and prefer seeing sovereignty as the luxury of having the freedom of amusement, then don't whine about the state of your life. Don't complain why things don't work out as you think they should. Accept that you choose meaningless fun-filled suicide rather than empowering, enriching growth that attunes you with the vibrancy and co-creative power of life and nature.
If you choose to be a parasite, then don't complain when the system you are parasiting off decides to mount an immune-response against you.
That is just how nature works.
