Less linear logic, more paradox logic
Western capitalist society operates on linear logic.
To do more — push yourself.
To do better — care more.
To receive more — ask for more.
To keep a precious thing — hang onto it tightly.
To go there — gun the engine.
But most fundamental truths of the human experience…
The truths that are revealed again and again in religious, spiritual, and philosophical traditions across the world…
The truths that you’ll hear from the Bible and the Gita and your grandparents and your therapist…
Those truths do not rest in linear logic.
Those truths rest in paradox logic.
It’s been a long week.
I know you’re tired.
So as you go into the weekend…
Relax into paradox logic.
To do more — rest.
To do better — care less.
To receive more — give more.
To keep a precious thing — hold it loosely.
To go there — be here.
