Waking Up Is Disconcerting
No longer connected to the hive
where people are busily occupied,
we become an outcast, a reject.
“Hmm…Do I have to be an outcast…?”
In the face of rejection from others,
we just have to remain
confident, kind, well disposed and courteous.
The act of rejection – however subtle –
was the very reason we woke up.
We rejected the hive mentality.
To be honest,
there is still a conflict between awakening
and stability in awakening.
It is as it is.
With awakening comes sadness (and a deep fatigue to live up with the daily routine and expectations.. “Ignorance is bliss” comes to mind. There is definitely a need for joy and confidence to sustain the new state.. Thanks Tony for the continuous blogging!
