Time to Exit

[Emotions - III]

People like us that are unwilling to continue like this . . .
Unwilling to head the same direction we’re heading . . .
Unwilling to wield the same tools and strategies we’ve used . . .
Unwilling to see the world through the same lens as before . . .
Must find the next exit.

It’s futile to travel the highway of status quo and arrive at a different destination.

The fast lane on the road to an undesirable future is to reduce yourself (and others) to one-dimensional talking points and rhetoric. One gift psychoanalysis has given the world is the truth that we all bear a complex universe within. Gutted of this internal dimension, you (and others) are a mere mask of your whole self, left only with norms of the road you're traveling.

Speed. Get ahead. Beat the competition. Win.

It’s time to turn on your blinker. Change lanes. Exit. And do the work of befriending the complex inner-universe you’ve been avoiding.
