There are a lot of people angry, frustrated, confused about reality because they don't understand it.
It causes people to expect something that will not happen and they act to try to make it happen.
This confuses it even more.
The first step is to try to understand the reality that surrounds you.
This requires looking at it with a clear understanding.
We are taught, all our lives, delusional concepts that attempt to rewrite reality to our own will but it doesn't work that way.
When reality rears its cold ugly head, it scares us or angers us and we start closing our minds to it.
As a defensive action, we despise the reality before us and work that much harder to change it to something we expect.
Problem is, reality doesn't care, it just is.
Most will heap delusions onto delusions trying to make reality bend to their will. It causes constant conflict in how we understand our lives.
Only by stripping away the delusions can we find contentment.
Before someone can change their reality they need to understand the reality that currently exists. If deluded about the current reality, any action plan will fail because the changes that are made will be changes to the delusion and not the reality. The reality will persist, thus, the action plan fails.
When action plans repeatedly fail, we start blaming things for the failure. In this case, money.
Sometimes reality can't be changed individually and sometimes it can't be change no matter what. Laying blame is merely an attempt to understand reality rooted in delusion.
Frankly, I doubt many people can understand the concepts I am referring to and it really doesn't matter to me. There are however, some people that understand what I'm writing and to them it makes a lot of sense.
They do matter to me because they are not prone to blaming or delusional thinking.
Having lived on both sides of the delusional mind-barrier I choose to embrace reality no matter how cold and dispassionate it is. To me, delusional thinking causes depressive thinking and I will no longer feed that monster at my expense.
I embrace reality and change what I can and accept everything else.
It gives me personal contentment.
