I started this journey more than four years ago. My goals included understanding a ‘real’ reality. I think I am getting there. It is painful, definitely that…
I Used My Intellect
To be right. And just as embarrasingly I have used my hobbies to claim immortality. I have been justifying my need to collect coins because I believe that in 100 years our world will be bereft of computers and back to concrete things, like coins. I thought that if I collected enough coins my descendants would make me immortal with their gratefulness. My coins would save my descendants from certain starvation and they would love and revere me. Ridiculous. Just like using my intellect to overpower an opponent in an argument, so that I could be right. Being right is a fool’s game. You have to make someone be wrong, in order to be right. How is THAT a GOOD thing? How would my towering intellect grinding someone to dust, ever be a GOOD thing?
