Lens

The world is a really messed up place. Everyone has a point of view. People get rich and famous by creating a point of view that promises happiness. Needing an escape people adopt a point of view that's not their own. They live a life that's not their own. How does it feel to put on someone else's glasses? It's the same with living a LIfE that's not your own. Nausea and disorientation become the standard. Find the glasses that work for you. Or take off the ones you're wearing. Vision is the beginning of liberation. To see the world through your own eyes. To fall in love with that vision. That is happiness.
