Time and Space are the things that define our physical world.
As such they also define the trends, moral's, and what is righteous throughout the ages.
There were and will be times when it will be considered a righteous action for one people to attempt too wipe out another: Genocide.
There will also be future ages of enlightenment, as long as the human race exists and continues to grow and schools of thought come and go we will continue to see no solid face for humanity.
As such, I do not seek to conform to what time and space dictate to be righteous or moral or for that matter evil for the time being. What I do seek is what is eternal. Why do I seek it? Simple, happiness is found when the circumstances play to your favor and you can enjoy every day of your life. When you allow yourself to be stepped on everyday by life, you can only choose to be happy. Even on your worst day you can be happy, however there is a difference between forced happiness and acquired happiness.
When we go out shopping, when we interact with friends, we are seeking to acquire happiness. Through the circumstances of life.
However our common mistake when doing this is looking for a pattern of interaction in order to get our hands on this elusive happiness.
Some days its in our favor, some days it is not? We have all lived this way, I would imagine.
Life is spontaneous, therefore happiness, destruction and hatred can all be brought on in an instant if we are of a purely reactionary nature.
The worst combination, to my way of thinking, is not merely a reactionary nature, but a logic seeking reactionary nature.
When one expects pattern's to show up and when they don't is subject to the circumstances of life dictating their moods and indeed their overall life.
When one learns to not be reactionary and nature one will have a choice of their emotions, however often times they will find themselves in bad situations, and although they may be capable of 'weathering' these situations with emotional stability, they will find that they are in these situations OFTEN.
When one learns not to search for logic, but for the subtle, then often times they will not be in a situation in which they can BE in a bad mood. Life works for them.
When one learns not to rely on logic and also not be reactionary, they are able to move with the subtles in life and gain the most potential from every moment, as well as at the same time being able to have control over their emotions, knowing when to allow others to see them in a not so perfect mood, giving them control and pleasure at the same time.
Sometimes it is not preferable to be happy, some times it is preferable to experience anger, some times even more so acute introspection.
They key is to be able to access any emotion at any time and to be able to access the subtles of life in order to reinforce each emotion and allow it to be real.
