Keeping perspective by watching stars in the sky
It have been said that more you get to know about
yourself, more lost you get. Every new discovering creates new questions.
Every question makes you again find your own place in the world around
you, throws your marbles all around and lefts you to crawl, get them back
into your hands again. Or is it really that hard?
When it´s about knowing yourself, it´s sometimes hard to believe that anyone else can could say anything about it. How anyone could know you better? Even it can sound very stupid, we have an image in our heads how other people think about us. That image updates every time when someone says something about you and when you get non -verbal messages from peole around you. Sometimes behaviour and how people act tells more. Words are often very deceiving. As you probably already know, it´s very healthy understand again once in a while, that you´re knowledge is limited. You can´t ruly know yourself either, and not many weird things about the world either. As long as you can remember that you can be wrong, you are honest to yourself and for the truth. If there even is any kind of absolute, objective truth, it´s better think that you can never reach it. At least it helps maintain my perspective toward life itself. I don´t need any kind of godsl. I can feel myself small enough when watching stars in the middle of the night. And it looks beautiful. |
