It is important to approach learning with an open mind, embracing new ideas and fearlessly questioning assumptions.

The art of stepping back. My father told me when I was young, never hammer on one subject or question for too long, it will drive you crazy! Literally. This lesson was demonstrated by Robert M Persig, author of Zen and the art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Poor high IQ guy took it to the limit and ended up in an institution for a period of time. Thankfully he came back around and went on to write his books. My father told me to stop, step back, go to something else for a time. You can always come back to whatever it is that is perplexing you!

Ah yes...The importance of "lateral drift" in any thought process we choose to entertain....It was a great work of writing by A man who stared into the abyss, and had something to say about what he saw. I'll never forget the gut punch I felt when I read his New Yorker article about Chris, his son's death.

[@argonaught5666]

@@lukula2934 That was very sad to hear. Honestly, that book was an eye opener in more ways than one for me. I probably never would have even made it through it had I not had a job at the time that gave me a lot of time on my hands. I was on standby so I would read, fall asleep, read, fall asleep. It wasn't until the end that it finally coalesced in my understanding and hit me rather profoundly. I had never really pondered the concept of quality before that but since then I have never forgotten it and the deep reaching implications of it in a society. Because of its loss in today's world, we are in deep trouble!

It was a very long time ago. If you can access New Yorker Magazine archives, I'm sure it can be found. If memory serves, either the title or the first line was "Chris, my son, is dead." Pirsig went on to explain that his son was a member of a Buddhist group, perhaps even the Hari Krishnas. (shaved heads, monk's robes, etc.). Anyway, while attempting to stop an argument between 2 men on the street, he was stabbed and died. I'm guessing Chris was late teens to early twenties at the time...

I am not necessarily associating the ambition of pursuing your preferred material items with stoicism as that would be far too complicated for me to explain well but I hope I have answered your question. Please keep asking questions, discourse is the best tool to realise how little we know. Understanding how little we know is the best tool for arriving at peace. It’s said that “you cannot see what you cannot see”, this has led me to believe it is simply a waste of time to fear what we cannot be sure that we ‘know’ The words “know” & “see” are interchangeable in this context P.s. I’m probably just chatting shit, however, it’s helped me so far Good luck

I like to share the next with you all. In the tapestry of time, my life unfurls, I've lived many lives in this vast world. Each day, a blank page, a fresh start I take, With every moment, a story I make. I see the sunrise as a brand new page, In the book of life, where I engage. With every dawn, I author my fate, In this captivating, ever-changing state. I've penned tales of joy and faced some strife, Painted my canvas with the colors of life. With every heartbeat, a chapter I partake, In the novel of existence, I create. So, I'll continue to write, without dismay, In the book of life, in my unique way. With each passing moment, a chance I'll hook, To make this journey an extraordinary book. Wishing you a wonderful and beautifully written journey in life! Ubbe.

I strongly recommend reading the poem “Desiderata” by Max Ehrmann. I gained a lot of insight from reading that as it’s message fit right in with the path I’ve been walking. I’ve endured a great deal of pain and learning from it was crucial to my survival. I was involved in a car wreck over 8 years ago and have struggled with chronic pain since. Learning from pain isn’t easy but it is extremely important if anyone living with chronic pain wishes to live instead of give up. The lesson I learned from pain is that there are aspects of my pain that I latched on to, such as directing blame towards the driver of the vehicle I was passenger in. I had to learn how to let go of resentment I held for those who I believed had caused me harm in one way or another. I accepted my condition as my reality and just in doing so, I felt things gradually improving. I now have more moments of comfort than I do agony, and that is worth fighting for.

[@thestoiccommunity]

Thank you for sharing your story and the recommendation to read "Desiderata" by Max Ehrmann. It's inspiring to hear how you have learned from your pain and have found ways to improve your quality of life. Your message of acceptance and letting go of resentment is important for anyone dealing with chronic pain. Keep fighting and wishing you all the best.
