Hello everyone
I’m tired of feeling inferior to some “enlightened” people so easily. I try to reason with myself but it seems to be rooted quite deeply in my system.
I have this friend, each time she hesitates between 2 self-help books (usually some crap about your spirit animal or angel therapy… blah blah bullshit!) she asks her cat!!! ASKS HER CAT!!!!! And … if the cat looks at one of the books first she buys that one!
But the best part is : if I make fun of it, she calmly states that she knows I would see it that way, because I’m such a rational person!
And I know that I will never be capable of seeing things her way but I still feel a bit sorry for myself for missing these things out and being so down to earth…
I’m sick with myself! I don’t know what to do! I’m tired of feeling like a stupid animal or a cave woman each bloody time!
I had similar feelings when I was younger, with a lesbian friend (who made me feel like a simple minded fool who didn’t have the brains and guts to see sex was something else with women) and a vegetarian friend (who made me feel like a bloodthirsty uncivilized carnivore).
But then I grew up… I still like meat and men (without the guilt... feels proud…)! And my lesbian friend found herself a nice girlfriend and feels a lot better about herself and we are best of friends again…
But I can’t seem to manage the “lack of spiritual needs” complex… Any help?
… goes to sulk in her cave…
Meow…
