Part of a healthy spiritual practice is paying attention to what’s happening in the world and allowing yourself to feel however you might feel about what you witness. If you’re not paying attention, you’re not participating in life. And if you’re not participating, you’re disassociating. And that just makes no sense, because you’re here for a reason. It’s not always easy, but your participation in this grand human experiment matters. We’re conscious beings on a giant rock flying 67,000 miles per hour through the vacuum of space. If you don’t participate and give that some meaning, then the “powers that be” will make it mean something for you… and you may not enjoy what “they” turn your human experience into.
