Musing Aloud.

I’m often given to wondering whether the only way to live a productive life is never to want any specific thing, but to seek a generality of experience that will bring an eventual understanding of what the hell it’s all about. It isn’t an easy road to walk in a culture that directs its people in the opposite direction. But when you’ve come to see the culturally-entrenched focus on ‘high achievement’ as so much horse shit, you have to wonder.

I suppose I’m only expressing a major strand of the Buddhist view. And maybe I’m wrong. Or maybe it doesn’t matter.
