An entangled mind

You are numb! You are so confused about your interactions in the world that you strangle yourself into submission! You hold on to control, you have expectations from other people. You assume that the world should assume your values, and your philosophy. You are so caught up with perfection, by thinking before you are acting that you kill your life. You are not a dancer, you are seated and chasing the high of perfection with your mind. You are consumed and dead. The dancer dances all over confusion, he skips and twirls right through what is bothering him. He overcomes the boundaries of himself by letting go of the imaginary walls of values that stop his dance. He is free to roam his world. He isn't concerned with good or evil - he is concerned with dancing the human dance. A clear oasis of life because he is no concerned with anything. His mind is the most healthy of all - for he represses nothing. The dancer is the only human being that is alive. The dancer is not concerned with trying to create a perfect moment, relationship or existence, he is concerned with dancing over the fact that no such perfection exists. He does not feel guilt for making mistakes or having his feelings change - for that is in the nature of being. The ones that are so concerned with these events, individuals with pointless thoughts, never live, for they remain numb!

To be alive is to live as a human - in all our scattered, miserable and beautiful moments. Knowledge is not everything and you must not tire yourself in the search for it in order to live, you must act with human instinct. Embrace your instinct. Embrace your neighbor's instincts. As you allow others to breathe the air you breathe, let others breathe their desires as you do. We are all too human. Dance without boundary. Smile and enjoy the zest of life. Let go of your morals that ensure pointlessness, you don't need the headaches! Embrace your insecurities and create invisible virtue! Enjoy the flowers that blossom in front of your face!
