– A wise teacher defined love as follows:
“See what is and act accordingly”
The ability to see what is is given to you by your conscience, the ability to act accordingly is given to you by your will. Love is only complete when these two parts, one passive and the other active, are fulfilled. It is not your beliefs, your ideas, your emotions or your intentions that define you, you relate to others and to the world through your actions.
Maturity, and this is why it's so important, implies responsibility: Your ability to respond to what happens.
– And that's what no one wants to get into.
– That is, precisely what is behind, follow, blindly obey and believe nonsense and a half.
– The fear of growing up and taking responsibility.
- Exact. As long as we continue to maintain this childish and dependent attitude, as long as we continue to hide indifference and distraction, we will have no chance of improving our quality of life. Neither as individuals nor as a society.
- Well, I don't see a solution.
– The solution is extremely simple:
Pay attention and do something about it.
