Captivated by this or that; cyber-land distractions. Follow this or that. Dress this way. Talk that way. Think like 'us'.
With all of the dictation as to how to look, dress, think and feel - What elements are there left for the individual to be (actually) individual? If everyone's personality and life is directed for them by what role is given to them by OTHERS, who is the one that gets to tell the OTHERS their role?
In-other-words, who gets to program the programmer?
Life in cyber-land as a personality is a lot fake, falsity and gossip. The real person is not known by the outsiders and neither is their innermost feelings, thoughts or understanding. There is something in social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram that give a false sense of closeness to the celebrity for the fan... yet it is still through a glass box that these personalities are perceived. It is the same glass box through which others judge and cast opinion upon the unknown.
It is through speculation, false claims and (quite a lot of) made up propaganda that some trends come into being. There is also the fear of 'missing out' or 'not being included' that cause oh so many to follow foolish, even sometimes detrimental trends, fashions, diets and ideals.
For all those out there on the WEB, there are as many thoughts on what is the right way to be and do most anything. For one cyber-bully that is pro something, there will be at least one that will cyber-bully against that same something.
Has not one been judged for a joke that may have been taken the wrong way? In return, has not one judged another for words said that may have been taken the wrong way?
It is rare that anyone actually goes out of their way to hurt another, or to get them angry/upset. Usually, it is misinterpretation or miscommunication that has caused the negative understanding. This is not to say that there are not any negative people out there, but surely it is not their Divine-Nature which is negative. Surely, a negative person is simply the building of many negative situations - one upon the other - which builds a negative behavioural pattern; therein, the person is merely shrouded in a negative covering which hides the underside of the inner divinity. Like anything that is covered over, it often difficult to SEE what is really underneath. The thicker the covering, the more difficult it is to know what is hidden underneath - and yet the True-Being is still there within.
Perhaps, it is time to stop concerning the self with judgement of others. The program designer for one's life can be oneself. Let those caught in the Matrix of confusion, judgement and despair continue with their own illusion until they, too, consider it never-ending and open their minds to change. It was Marcus Aurelius that said, "The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it," nearly two thousand years ago and still we are learning this truth.
