Life is easy. Why do we make it so hard?

There's very little that's easy about my life right now. That's not to say that I'm complaining, it's just a simple fact.

According to Jon you need to re-evaluate your life then.

I don't agree life is easy. Quite the opposite. From money worries, health issues, family issues, deaths, job stresses, it's not always easy. People with DGAS attitudes may have it easier, but those of us who worry and care, it is sometimes difficult.

I think what Jon is saying is we impose those difficulties on ourselves. I don't think he's saying life can be without worries and cares. I think he's talking more about trying to get ahead and make money and stick yourself with mortgages and dept.

Why are you embarrassed? I see you participating in circle jerks often, thought maybe you had matured enough to know who you are deep down. It's tough being yourself but try.

You talk about "circle jerks" a lot too. Yeah, it's weird.

I don't think he's talking about getting ahead, I think he's talking about another way to do things that makes life less stressful, while connecting you to other people at the same time.

He says his way of life makes him feel like he can do anything because he doesn't have fears like he did when larger society told him to start 'getting ahead'. He could just work 2 months and make more than enough for him and his family, but he decides to build more houses because as he put's it, 'he feels lighter, like he can do anything', and then he built a place called "Pon Pon", where he stores seeds for other farmers, since he was a farmer and that's what he felt would best help. After he stopped worrying about what he was feeling pressured to do (that globalist pressure, imo), and started doing what came naturally, he felt happier, which led him do more and help others.

And what I found to be really intriguing, was that it sounded like he was talking about what I think Taoist philosophy says is 'to be naturally human'. I would really want to know if this guy is Taoist.
