I have mixed feelings about this.
There is probably a lot of truth to what Stan says, and perhaps a lot of wisdom in the quotes he has chosen.
But most people simply cannot devote the time to contemplate such matters. They’re spending all their time simply trying to battle the lower rungs of Maslow’s hierarchy
It does kinda remind me of something I was thinking the other day. People spend hours at the gym/exercising/sport working on their physical wellbeing, but do they spend any time on improving their mind? Or, perhaps beyond that, on challenging or improving their ‘spiritual’ understanding? It seemed to me that, at a surface level, there seems to be a big imbalance to the physical. And maybe I also should think and plan to balance more on the other two. If I could spend less time on the bottom tiers of Maslow’s hierarchy, maybe I’d have more time to spend at the top?
Anyways, I’m glad Stan seems to be finding some peace.
