That's right! my own mother for example, she doesn't think about her actions. she just does what feels right. she will lie to you to make herself look good.. because it feels right to her.
I think part of being their equal means to expect more of them. Acting like a god is more condescending in my opinion, Accepting them as they are sounds like giving up on their potential to become decent men and women. after all you wanderers are here to help them graduate rather than letting them remain unconscious in this illusion.
This is the third time within the last two months, a so called friend who calls me her savior angel, is giving me her homework to do. she starts thanking me before I accept doing her project for her. And I'm too shy to tell her she's just using me like a tool. just cause I'm serving, I get to become her tool and selfish dumb guys get her affection. (I don't want her affection though! and I just ran away from her this time instead of doing her job for her)
BTW, I'm very chill and humble most of the time. if you found me to be judgmental it was because of my temporary anger at the time I posted those.
Thanks for the response.
I'm sorry if my reply conveyed that one had to be a wanderer to see from this perspective. I was only invoking the wanderer as a sort of category. One that sees the same things that you describe, but has a different reaction. Instead of saying "F*ck these people," the desire is to serve.
Naturally one needn't be a wanderer to see this way. I only meant to invoke the wanderer as an example. Regardless of one soul's origin, we're all capable of seeing that way.
That is not to negate your feelings! I would be a liar if I said that I had never become embittered, or angry, or righteous when viewing the folly of others. There is a lot of shallowness in this world. Self-serving selfishness. Callousness. Greed. Cruelty. Seemingly willful ignorance. And so forth.
In general I just tend to think that a lot of these qualities stem from past pains and traumas, mistreatments and misunderstandings. In other words, moments where love was denied or squandered. The shape of others is formed so much around unrecognized or unhealed pain. Might even your own OP arise from being severed from love, connection, intimacy, community?
Each situation is unique of course. Maybe someone does need called on their BS. Maybe holding someone to an expectation or to accountability is what's needed. In general I think that the highest course of action is discovered on the road of empathy. We may need to flip two birds high to the world sometimes. I know, so please vent away.
And afterward I'll chill with you. : )
