Let me beat you to the punch
I. Don’t. Know.
Before you accuse me of being wrong – I am.
I know that every time I open my mouth or place fingers to keyboard, each word that is recorded, each and every idea – they are all flawed. My best efforts can only ever partially capture Truth. I admit and acknowledge this to myself and anyone who chooses to read or listen to this.
You are welcome to remind me of my many errors and limited understanding or just take comfort in knowing I am well aware of my situation – I am undeniably in over my head when it comes to making any sense of what ‘all this’ is about. Feelings and the like are beyond words – ask the greatest artists and poets alive today – I certainly don’t include myself with that group so what hope do I have!
I don’t claim to be an expert. Far from it, I have no special powers or insight. I only wish!
I am not a medical professional and nothing I share should act as medical advice. In fact, it is likely that I am the one that needs the medical help myself – have you read some of the ideas I have written? Absolutely nuts, no!?
This exercise I call MindGuide is my exploration of my mind’s process and my struggle with the seemingly impossible task of documenting the undefinable and recording the unnamable. Despite being impossible I watch myself continuing to try. And I have no idea why. It is rather amusing.
During the rare moments of clarity I am graced with, I realize this is all just entertainment – like watching a movie or adopting a religion, it occupies my mind, produces experience and feelings – it makes life interesting.
I am clearly not ready to evolve beyond being interested and experiencing. I still want the good so I must put up with the bad. I still think this is real, and that there are answers to the problems I create. I do see the error in this, and that demonstrates my predicament.
True understanding is inconsequential to experiencing, and yet I still try to understand.
For all these reasons, you should not take anything I say or write seriously.
For that matter, you should not take anything anyone says or writes seriously.
What you may want to consider is exploring your mind process and ideas for yourself.
One thing I do know for (almost) certain – life can only ever be uniquely experienced. By each of us. Unique.
So we are best to explore these ideas on our own versus taking another’s word or experience.
– lastly –
If you do happen to know,
you obviously know better than me,
so I would encourage you to spark a change that will see less suffering for human experience.
Without imposing your ideas on others (which just creates more suffering)
find your own way to be and allow others to find theirs.
