Our Social Addiction to Being Good

As a society we are ALL  addicted to being good. ( thanks to our upbringing )
The idea is : IF I am good, THEN I will get what I want in life. – Which is completely false!!

This is the biggest lie you were ever told!

We spend so much time trying to be good…

Then we suppress, disown or reject emotions like fear, anger, depression….

In hiding these emotions, we remain to the the outside world as if we “look like we are good” when we really aren’t.

So we develop addictions, numbing mechanisms and unhealthy patterns to hide from other people what we consider to be bad.

We fragment ourselves and keep the good facing forward and the bad hidden inside, or so we think!!

We go on this long quest to fix ourselves, change ourselves, and we call it “spirituality” “ personal development” or some other positive sounding concept.

We think we can fix it or change it. ( whatever we think is wrong with us )

Until it all starts to leak out and you project itself into all aspects of your life!

Everyone else is ALSO doing the same thing! They are also trying to be good, and also NOT getting what they really want, even if their social feed says otherwise, it’s a lie!

Here is the worst part…

When you believe you are good, and doing good, and being good, for a really long period of time, and you STILL do not get what you want, it creates extreme anger!

You’re pissed off!

You’re angry that it didn’t work, somehow cause and effect seem to be broken.

Your parents promised if you were good, you would get what you want!

What the hell happened?!

The truth is : Nobody is here to be good, we are all here to be REAL.

Real with ourselves first. Then real with other people.

This means expressing our anger, our fear, our sadness or any other emotion that is “not ok”.

Even if you are rejected, even if you are criticized. Still be YOU!

Here is the other REAL truth:

Since you are REAL, you already are everything, and you already have eveything!!

In being real you will be rejected by the people who are trying so damn hard to be good, but it’s ok!

You don’t want to belong to falseness anyways!

What will happens is that when you are real, you draw to yourself other real people.

Anyone who rejects you for being real, doesn’t belong in your life anyways. : )
