I like the last two and this article of yours very much. I observed that the universe most of the time does not give us what we want but obviously it gives us something and I guessed this is what we need, this now makes sense to me, because it is our souls need.
My wants are only part of the story humanity in modern society tells it self. Sometimes its the egoistic want to waste energy on things some body said, its not about the other person beeing "mean" its about me searching for a reason to act on. Christmas is fighting time in my family (people in general here are kind of explosive these days). From my feel it is alsways bordom and the judgement day "new-years-eve". You are all the time with your head in the past, thinking about thinks you didnt reached (compared to the fucking wants) and in the future thinking about what you should want.
fighting is a boring game with no suprise
How cool that you enjoyed my last three articles. They are somewhat overlapping, for sure.
Many, many "new age" people like to focus on the thought aspect to a ridiculous degree. "Think long enough about getting or having it and you eventually get it". As if the conscious would be all there is!
And I certainly agree with your position regarding Christmas. Meant to be days of harmony, I experienced the general mood during Christmas time more and more gloomy over the years, and even if it was harmony on these days I couldn't arrange myself with putting on a fake mask of good mood for a few days when things were simply not that way. Since I neither like to get entangled in collective gloom nor in collective fake harmony during these days I eventually started blinding out this day. Peace should be the way to go everyday, not only on some fixed dates.
