I get it. At times I get frustrated myself.

We can always take a break from it. Check out and think about other stuff not related.

I decided to blend up what I wanted to eat cause I didn't feel like cooking lol. You don't wanna know what foods I blended up.

While I understand how much of an annoyance that is, as I've been there before, can't help but feel like that's part of the process. At least they are steering themselves in that direction. Hopefully with further strong lessons and reality smacks instead of the usual social flocking or needing distractions from themselves by being tools or drinking kool-aid.

Agreed! Kool-aid is delicious, as long as it's made right

Actually, the annoyance for me is that it's a contradiction and often seems overstated. So, for every step you take, you take a step back. While you believe you're going in the right direction, you're actually not moving. Plus, people say it to god damn too much, like a buzzword...or maybe I just hear it too much! Besides, I meant it in relation to (macro) social issues.

I totally agree with your statement tho! It sorta relates to what I was thinking about... Someone's journey is their own and shouldn't be questioned by anyone else.

I am thinking I hope the madness ends soon and we can all go back to being normal again.

I mean, toilet paper is available again... you know, that's a good first sign that things are getting better..no?

Exactly! And I understood your stance very well. So much so.... that being said, to get your spiritual juices going all the same (forgive my bluntness) - getting genuinely 'annoyed' by it is ALSO negative 'I'm woke' herd - "I'm woke and you're not", behavior. More subtle approach of doing the same as them in a sense. Don't cha think? You actually took a step back yourself. Be careful! Haha. Strongly humble comes to mind. And I believe you absorbed my words wrong and didn't even humor the idea that I knew your stance already. Aura cleanse, beautiful. :)

Your reaction and perception of things can be very telling about your own spirituality as well. Strong awareness comparison paired with annoyance is in-fact very negative and you've actually stooped down to them. Unwillingly. Just being constructive here and hope I'm not offending. :)

That duality. Two wrongs don't make a right, especially when it comes to comparing your mentality to another with wisdom or higher consciousness as a foundation. They're both contradicting stances. We can easily become unknowing hypocrites as we go through different stages of our own personal growth and spirituality. Best way to react to it is laugh it off or see it as a lesson rather than furthering the negative energy flow with strong indifference. I totally understand that you want to shine light on them, but be careful of what is laced in your light. <3 :)

I'm guilty of this too from time to time, which is why I am highlighting it in hopes what I'm conveying is seen for what it is and not further ego vs ego misunderstandings like these. Constructive self-observing growth. Cast a mirror on ourselves, and you'll always see our beautiful imperfections in our perfect existence.

Everyone is a hypocrite. Just embrace it.

people's anxiety's have just changed to different outlets. From hording toilet paper, to violence. The violence just has been given a positive label/mission. I put a couple pieces of the puzzle together today. A friend of mine works for a company that makes million dollar yachts. "A toy of the rich" ever since all this craziness started this yacht company has been busy running 3 shifts and they still can't keep up with orders. Along with that idea. Since this all started small businesses are closing and millions of other people out of work. How is a company that builds million dollar boats so busy? It's a loop hole.... Larger companys are cashing in on the pandemic business relief programs, laying off people anyway and closing, those people are talking that money are buying really expensive toys.https://youtu.be/qOfkpu6749w
