Why is it come people choose to chase shit, consume their life with it and then cry their life is average?
“The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered “Man! Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
It is so easy in this age to do the above. Sadly for me, i witness daily on first hand someone very close to me doing this very thing. How do you get someone to break the cycle? You can lead a horse to water, but you certainly cannot make it drink it!
As humans, we all take the path of least resistance. Perhaps it is easier to just accept that life will be average rather than fight it.
“You can lead 100 but you cannot carry three on your back.”
