Love sophistication

 

Is it possible to find love on an app, or to get some hope up from a movie in the face of an actor?  

Isn't it important for us to understand that we have alienated ourselves from the very common things of life?

We are neurotically worship nature and lose touch with nature with the consequence of loosing touch with ourselves.

We seek beauty and love outside ourselves, in people, in possessions and it becomes far more important than love itself.

 Possessions mean pleasure and everybody loves to hold on to pleasure, while love becomes banished.

 The absolute beauty is in ourselves and how we could see things, not necessarily in the things about the self.

When the things about us become more important and we invest beauty in them, then the beauty in ourselves lessens.

Materialistic beauty is like a dress we try to cover the nakedness and emptiness of the self.  Then the pride of possessions becomes more significant than people involved.

It means that when the things outside us become of great meaning, we are inwardly very poor.

In poor isolation is dependence, and dependence breeds pleasure, therefore creating fear of having or not, is a sense of despair which has established itself from the hopelessness of continual gratification.

Caught, in net of despair and hope, we are constantly feeding on the inward poverty of fear, pleasure, love and hate.

Love is not the element of dependence, and love is not a scale of values that one can put on top of ugliness.

People love to deal with facts, and we can do with what is and act therefore accordingly, without becoming an ideology or a useless fanciful attention.

Love and beauty are not comparable and if one does, it ceases.

 It is the mind that refuses to see that what has become mechanical.

Love is like seeing, which is not this process of thought; seeing is always new, and fresh, and active.

Seeing and thinking are of two different orders altogether, and has to be careful not to taint the vision with inward blindness.

Therefore the happy ever after is at the beginning and not at the end.
