It’s hard to open the paper willy nilly now. In today’s world, one needs to have an eye closed and vision dimmed just in case it’s another manic Monday and the world is losing itself. It makes it hard to stay neutral when we seem to be going backwards on our earth journey rather than forward towards wisdom. The only wisdom found in todays world is Tic Tok, YouTube, Facebook videos and I swear the amount of enlightened teachers selling their wares is still on the rise and every life coach diet guy has another amazing discovery if we hit the link below. It’s not just a manic Monday, it’s a manic world.

I was looking at the New York Times fashion magazine and again its on another level to think that someone is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars for unwearable fashion and I love fashion but really at what point does reality come into the picture when luxury brands act as though we still live in a world of dreams and I mean kid dreams, not adult dreams. Where are you going in that outfit you can’t bend in?

It’s hard reading in the paper about the atrocities of war on the front page and the Donald acting up on another not to mention Russia tyrants trying to kiss China tyrants all creating a tyrant world. Didn’t we already live thought that? Didn’t we all decide that tyrants don’t want equality in their ranks that want ranks that blindly obey. How can this not be classified as manic behavior?

After a number of years desiring a solo life I have reached the conclusion its not just in reaction to betrayal as much as it was a vote for me, and learning to hear my own voice over the many conflicting voices wanting my attention and devotion. Really I can’t imagine any one saying to me, you’ll listen to me when I talk right? No actually, I am waiting for internal instructions from the mother ship. Even that sentence makes more sense to me than the people who hear a tyrant speaking and can only hear words of victory.

Sad indeed!

I keep looking for the new group to emerge through all the religious groups and yoga schools that misled us, all the teachers that realized they were wrong, and spiritual organizations that relabel themselves to be less than spiritual just hungry…for what’s in your pocket or purse. After so many years of being single and outside of any community I have finally pushed away from the hope that it is out there and am firmly accepting the solo practitioner path. As I do not wish for any human to have the need to speak to me from their podium nor do I need you to listen to me on mine. But, I will say this, on Manic Mondays its far better to see out your own eyes, think with your own mind and choose from your own discernment what’s right for you, than listen to some manic Monday tyrant!

Choose you!
