We are spiritual beings living a human experience. Your brain thinks and your physical body is a persona caring an identity around. 

A lot of things are social constructs and we can question them. At the same time, questioning too much does too little for the practical realm. So we can make sense of the craziness of society, but then we need to pick a character and live accordingly. The one that wakes up every day and has to pick his life each time is a tired and unhappy one. This is where routines come about.

Words are necessary to explain to an extent what we feel, at the same time as what we feel is subjective. It's your own experience. What cold means to you is not the same as cold for other people. Some things are better left unsaid and once you say something it's already out there. You cannot take it back. If the feeling is objective and words have different connotations, then that's where behavioural psychology comes into place. Along with sales and negotiation techniques. You need to pick the right words.

Time is an illusion. It's a man-made construction and it's felt differently in different dimensions, settings and events.

We are all struggling and living our own human experiences. Each one of us is on a different journey. And we are all connected.

this really resonates with me.

words can be limiting which is why some things should remain unsaid.
