Rituals are something that we may feel we need to do over and over again. You know the feeling when you go to your favorite restaurant or have to leave a meeting or do something that needs you to be in the same place every day? Rituals are a necessary part of our lives to make sure that we keep on doing things that are useful for us and not just make ourselves feel bad.
This is why ritual is so important. The reason that rituals are important is because they can be used to make us feel better about ourselves. They also have the added benefit of helping us to keep track of how we’re doing. We have a set of rituals that are useful in a number of ways: 1. If we go to a restaurant that is the same every day, we know that we will never run out of places to eat. 2.
That’s why we have the ritual of not taking that one extra step.
Well, yes and no. The first thing that we may have been doing wrong was the ritual of not taking that one extra step. We were saying, “Look how many steps it is.” This is why we are using rituals in the first place. We may have been trying to make ourselves feel bad about ourselves and by taking that extra step, we were doing something that was helping us to feel good about ourselves.
In the end, it’s a question of whether or not we’re a good person. If we’re a good person, why are we doing this? If we are a good person, what are we doing to make ourselves feel bad about ourselves? If we’re not a good person, then why are we doing this? These are the kind of questions I have been having to answer for myself for a while now.
Of course, the problem is that we’re so used to doing good for ourselves, that we don’t see the obvious question of what it would take to be a good person. We are so used to doing good for ourselves in so many different ways, we don’t see the problem with any of it.
Well, if you think about it, it is just a matter of “do good” and “get good”. But, if you are a good person, you are doing good for yourself in so many seemingly different ways, you are doing good in so many different places, that it is hard to see the problem.
The problem is that we have become so accustomed to doing good for ourselves that we have completely lost sight of the most important of all the things we are doing: actually BEING GOOD. We are so used to doing good for ourselves that we have become blind to doing good for other people. We are so used to doing good for ourselves that we are not willing to look out for the needs of others.
The problem is that what we are doing for ourselves is not doing good in the first place! We are doing good because we want to, not because we have to. We are doing good not because it is a duty but because we are genuinely enjoying ourselves. The thing is, we are so used to doing good for ourselves that we are not willing to do good for others.
