Just heard Will Smith talk about how in general people are addicted to the feeling of been aggravated!
How freakin true is that for most people we know. It cringes my stomach when I hear people just talking crap about others or moaning about life and never doing anything about it.
We switch on the news and 99% of the time we expect to hear gloom and doom because no one in the media with a position of power and influence, thinks that "Good News will create high viewing rates.
Not Knocking anyone that likes soap opera's but again the most common story lines that we engage with are often stories that promote aggravation.
In short it makes me think that most of us are conditioned to think of the world as an evil place where we can not trust another fellow human being and that mentality keeps us separated and divided and powerless.
We know there is a lot about our world that we do not like or agree with but we are conditioned to turn a blind eye and keep our mouths shut or we will moan about it but never take any positive action.
If more of us could just take time out and look at life and see how valuable but also how short it is then talking about other people's gossip mis judging other people would start becoming less important.
We choose what comes out of our mouths. we may not have the choice of what enters our head but we all have the ability to stop and think whether we allow our conversations and mindset to carry on been addicted to negativity that aggravates us and quite frankly if we are all honest is a complete waste of life.
I say it's conditioning of the environment that you allow yourself to be in and maybe as humans we need to recondition our minds and start seeing that there is actually MORE GOOD in this world Than More Evil....
Just a passing thought. What do you think?
