What is will
past what was is
Start from now. Every insignificant thing that anonymous you do, adds a fluid drop into the ocean. Across iterations, scaled by cumulative quantities, increasing statistically, you are already achieved in a reality, timeline.
Lamenting what was, is, will be. That is the ultimate mind destroyer. You are already trapped in the past, allowing the dictates of future actions to already decide your defeat. Not realising that such doom and helplessness is the most laughable spiritual delusion, mental fallacy of all.
Slingshot into entropy and start a different tiny cause. Over time and across space, your starts from now build up new inertia, and more inexorable moments. The inexorable that is, is not.
"Lamenting what was, is, will be. That is the ultimate mind destroyer." So true! It is easy to complain about 'how things are', so much harder to pull oneself to an impartial view to be able to rationally deal with things effectively. Right now I am dealing with the horribly broken US health care system, and with outrageous hospital bills that everyone just seems to accept as de facto, when in fact, it is but another example of how the Ultrawealthy rob the middle and lower classes. I have been incensed and outraged for quite some time, but finally have decided to do what I can about the problems at hand and not take it personally. Great article!
