Dear... Those Who Read Others' Thoughts
Why does it takes my so much willpower to do one thing? I know the surface of the cause, not the deep origin of this. I know genes and personality enforces this. Other related questions could be, why can’t I stop doing this or that? Gambling, smoking, drinking, playing games for hours. These are distractions from the pain whose source is hidden. There are people who have the luck to know the origin. Others don't, the subconscious hides it like a mother to a baby.
Rationally, we know we should do or not do one action, but our emotions, our brains protects us. The primitive part of our brain is very strong, we say it's not but it is the case. Society and our actions are always influenced by our ancient parts. We should not try to delete it. We should find an equilibrium between rationality and our bodies, listen to both and then decide.
We know what to do most of the time, but we don't. Extreme fears traps us, I'm included, you, he, she, they are included. It's not bad to feel it but to dig in it, maybe not.
Each one has their problems, we are unique but at the same time similar beings.
