That's an excellent post from Leo. Which brings to mind my current situation.
Time for an admission of failure here.
An intentional Life, one primarily based on fully realizing each & every choice I make, living each day in open mindfulness, is one of my best strengths. Sharing the how and why of this with others, especially / at least with my closest friends, is not.
I'm currently going through the struggle of accepting that not everyone wants to live with purpose, with meaning, with a mind fully awake, open, and in the here & now. Instead, some people just want to remain forever bound to their self-created blind, deaf, and dumb selves. I believe a proper term here for them is "sheeple", a combination of "people" and "sheep".
I know these sheeple exist; there are about 7 billion humans on the planet, after all. But when you realize they happen to exist right in your life, and there's not a thing you have done or can do to snap them out of it, that's heartbreaking.
What can I do?
Simply be true to my own zenity and accept it.
I by no means will ever condone it, or like it. But I do accept it.
It is what it is.
