Music and Life - Alan Watts From the moment we're born we are set goals by society. exam scores, academic degrees, a good job, a certain lifestyle, a new car, the latest fashion, vacation resorts, wealth, property. Anything at all. We are not born with these goals.
We spend our lives going from -1 to 0. We work to get what we desire, and when we get it, we are quickly at 0. Unfulfilled, unsatisfied. Immediately we look for the next thing society tells us we should accomplish if we want to feel satisfied. -1.
Questions:
1) Is there a way out of this loop?
2) What things would you like to be important in society? What kind of goals and aspirations do you wish your children to be live by? Because what your society appreciates is what you, and they in turn, will desire.
