Comment on I’m a little too self aware to enjoy life and a little too delusional to give up
zarathustrad@lemmy.world 1 week agoIt is really fun as you become aware of new things to be discontent about after thinking you were already aware and discontent but moved on in the past. Like a roller coaster of curves.

I mean yeah depends where one points their mind but still seems like the transition. I guess I’m thinking of minds trying to understand reality and how that often culminates in a compassion and acceptance practice. One for instance can choose to become increasingly aware of celebrity news or politics and will likely be trapped in that cycle you are mentioning. These days I personally don’t feel discontent like in the past, maybe disappointed like a parent might be of a child they know has so much promise and potential but that’s because I still choose to have attachments and desires. The goal is to expect nothing and accept everything, reality is going to be as it is regardless of our personal attachments or desires but I’m still hung up on wanting wellbeing for all minds.
