In life, there are so many ‘rules.’ How to dress, how to look, how to speak, how to act, how to live… If you get punched in your face, don’t forget to support yourself. Ask yourself the following question: Is this really important, or is it just another ‘rule’ invented by humans?
Sometimes it’s like we are losing our way in things that really don’t matter, and we get lost. I mean, the world is falling apart right now. Earth is warming up, there is a lack of food and water, people are shooting and have done so for a long period of time. Children are killed by their parents… You can go on. These are serious things that really matter. Things we should gather ourselves around and try to stop.
A while ago, I nearly lost my son. It was his heart. I held his hand at the hospital in what could have been his last hour. That matters. How we cut our hair or how we dress aren’t in the same league. So, next time somebody attacks you for something totally unimportant, bear in mind that they’ve lost their way. They are lost to what really matters in life, and instead they may start inventing rules for shallow things.
