Imagine life is a road trip.
You’re driving but there are
a half-dozen children in the
back seat making a rukus.
by Henry Makow PhD
Most of you don’t want to read about training the mind, but if you suffer from nervous anxiety like I do, you had better pay attention.
A good way to relax is to imagine that you are on a car trip. The thoughts that make you anxious are like your children in the back seat.
There’s little Hank who’s always in a hurry. “Are we there yet?” “Are we there yet?”
Hank doesn’t live in the present. He lives in the future. So naturally he is rushing to get there.
Then there is his brother Bob who is super selfish. He doesn’t want to share his toys with the other children.
There is Debbie Downer who fixates on the negative. How did she ever become so ungrateful? Despite what evil people are doing, we live in a consumer’s paradise. We have everything we need to be super happy.
There’s a pimply teenager Bryce who sees the opposite sex not as human beings but in terms of their sex appeal.
There’s greedy Jimmy who is always chasing the buck.
You get the picture. Even though our thoughts are a bunch of little brats, we rarely identify them as such.
On the contrary, we identify with them and let them take the wheel.
Even though they are children, we make no effort to educate them and teach them to behave properly.
We have no concept of “mind work.” This “inner work,” — wrestling with the thoughts in order to improve ourselves — is what makes life challenging. If we stop, we have no purpose and want to kill ourselves.
Life constantly presents challenges. Today, in an email, Linda accused me of being “a Jesuit.”
“Spirit has revealed to me you are a Jesuit shill. I did enjoy your articles and I thank you. Now I understand why they have left you alone.”
My son Louis wanted to tell her to fuck off. I wouldn’t know how to be a Jesuit shill even if I wanted.
But the driver intervened and reminded Louis that we have been put on earth to express God’s love. So I didn’t reply.
I am not optimistic about a collective solution — given the banker stranglehold over every aspect of society. This is a shame because
mankind has risen out of the muck, only to head back. What if we are the highest form of life in the universe? What if God is counting on us?
At the same time, mankind has an eternity to get it right. As individuals, we don’t.
The Kingdom of Heaven does lie within. Life is a miracle. Every day is a precious gift.
Let’s be adults and not let the children spoil the ride.
