A Torn Out Page from An Old Notebook

Found this piece of paper in my planner for the year 2023, hidden at the back, after a few pages of notes for work

Feeling terribly fed up of this unfair and unsound practices

How did I not see these red flags?

How do I deal with them?

My mind is my God

Why are there so many external facts that people believe in that make their own lives complicated?

And drag others down alongside them at the same time.

There is basic care and compassion but if you can't even give yourself that, why offer it to others who will just take a mile for every inch that you hand to them on a silver platter?

I AM SO....

Tired of the worldliness!

They talk about God and how we should fear...

But I talk to God who I love.

They practice outdated rituals to appease the heavens

But chase people and open, curious minds away with brooms.

They insist on words of prayer every morning

But then choose to speak loud and unkind words all day...

They place offerings upon altars

But don't respect what lays in from of them at home.

They suffer from lack of mindfulness...

They hate what others do.

They talk about the need to follow the righteous ways

But then forrget the laws of karma.

They say they don't deserve suffering

But then they stay attached to things and bad people

And when people do communicate what is needed from them

They realise their backwardness and lack of progress

Are the reasons why they cannot fulfill basic needs.

Heck...

Pray all you want.

Pray if you want.

Pray for peace and better days.

Don't pray for selfish, worldly needs and demand goodness from the greatness, when you are not fair to all yourself.

I was clearly seething in some kind of anger!
