RE: Escaping Reality

in #philosophy6 years ago (edited)

My mother use to tell me "your eye's are the window to your soul. If you want to be presentable you had better make sure of what people see in those eye's when they look at them." Then she would hurriedly say, "but don't you think to much about what they think. Just be beautiful you."

It has taken a while to get what she was trying to tell me. When we are young we think to much about what others think. As we get older we begin to at some point not be distracted by what people think. Truth to tell we most likely never got what others thought right anyways. Funny thing is that is when we really begin to live.

Sort:  

Yeah, what others say matters, we can learn from others, not live in a delusion, others can check us when we are wrong or foolish, but they can also be wrong and make false claims about us ;) Life is judgment, we have to be able to honestly judge things being said as being correct and accurate or not.
