My take of the Meaning of Life
Yours will be different and others will be content in never thinking about it let alone explaining what it is
Such is life and people.
When we are born we have our parent’s genes to shape in some way who we become. The rest is down to natural instinct which is inside the individual that we are, our experiences and what we are taught.
From then on we are all very much conditioned in the same way by the education we receive, we are taught right from wrong from our parents and how we should act based on their beliefs and morals. What we are taught in schools hasn’t changed a great deal over the years, subjects are renamed and new lessons added to keep up with new technology but basically they have the same concept
So no wonder many of our lives turn out to be very similar to each other and to the life direction our parents took.
From an early age it isn’t long before we start to develop the art of interaction with our parents, family and friends, it is then that we pick up characteristics from the people around us, some will want to have our own way, others not so sure. At this age we need to learn how to behave and what is right and wrong, even now the lessons we will learn will be replicated in our future life.
Schooldays bring many new challenges, the need to learn respect, self discipline and how to expand our independence
Each phase of the education system introduces us to the ladder of command, each time we rise to the top of the tree in standing, and then start again.
Employment again sees us start at the bottom but the start of the journey of our adult life
As we get older we shape the person and life that we will lead.
Priorities will change, Vulnerability from young age requires reassurance, and Vulnerability from old age requires reassurance
In-between – education – relationships – work
It is a cycle - Birth, education, work, retirement.
Yes the life some people have will be very different but how many people do you know whose life will follow the same pattern. This pattern of life provides us with a comfort zone, we feel more secure when we do things that are familiar to us, when something is new or changed in our lives then they are the times when we feel most threatened and insecure, so the need for a regular pattern is very important to us.
So that asks the question if the boundaries of what we learn from when we are born were lifted, what then?
It is the belief that people use only 10 percent of their brain
The 'hidden nine-tenths' of your mental strength lies buried.
There are the people who demonstrate mental abilities that are very rare. Some people with autism for example have had the ability to calculate very high levels of math equations without ever having learned how.
There are people who can use their own powers of communication and persuasion to effect the thinking of other people
What people need to hear is what they sometimes need to believe.
