Dread & Necessity

Dreading anything is the bane of existence. Dreading necessary things is far more intensely brutal. Setting life up so that nothing is pleasurable or fun results in a dead zone which will ultimately destroy any life.

Honestly take inventory . . . of reasons to be awake, to proceed to the next step, out the door, into the vehicle, down the street (check that street, who and what may be there also), food & drink consumed, eyes and ears, the weather.

Each seemingly small stimulation adds to a total at the end of the day, month or year. Does that very essential sum look good, beneficial? Is it an asset or a liability? If an answer to these simple questions seems nebulous, impossibly abstract, just sit quietly without conscious thought for a moment and listen to your own mind.

It is NOT necessary to remain among miserable circumstances. Nothing dreadful is actually necessary. This condition requires personal compliance, understand this completely. There is always a choice . . . to continue or to change.
