The Eighth Interconnected Question of Consciousness:
What is the rule of misery?
There is a most severe warning that must be monitored when a person socializes with others, goes about their life or is involved in the rough draft process of writing.
The warning stems from the property of influence, which exists within every person’s motivation and fun. Recall, this influential property of a person’s willpower, is capable of increasing or decreasing total motivation and total fun in living beings.
Unfortunately, not all people (or personal attitudes) have a positive or good influence on life. Many individuals take great pleasure from increasing chaos and pain in others. And, as their weapon of choice, these individuals manipulate, instigate emotions and orchestrate thoughts and actions in the life of others (or self) to create misery.
Fortunately, there are some clues that a person may observe to identify when another individual (or one’s self) may be focused on creating misery.
First, there is anger and hatred. Nurturing angry thoughts, words and actions breeds the seeds of misery. Pay attention to the hyperbolic, contradictory or victim reasoning of a person’s anger and hatred.
Second, there is contempt. Living life through the perspective of contempt grows the roots of misery. Pay attention to the condescending tone, words, beliefs and actions practiced by others.
Third, there is blame. Blame is the greatest indicator that a person swims and splashes and enjoys the river of misery. Creating blame and using blame as a viable component of life spreads the fruit of misery. Pay attention to a person’s lack of accountability.
A final word of caution: individuals that find pleasure in spreading misery tend to be excellent actors. Therefore, eternal vigilance is required in life. For those focused on spreading misery tend to be deceptive in social settings, and overall, they tend to practice being secretive, manipulative and self-centered at the cost of other’s well being.
As a defense against the ever-present beast of misery in the world, it is of great importance to build one’s defenses. Self-development, strengthening individual moral core values and practicing willpower training must always be part of a person’s daily pursuits in life, especially for any writer.
8. What is the rule of misery?
Misery loves company and misery will always try to instigate, manipulate and create chaos, pain and mayhem in the lives of others, if left unchecked.
