Lesson 1:
For most people priority lists are like billboard charts.
If you are a *keeper*, like an MJ number, you can top that list for a longer period of time. What you need to realize is, audience never shows no past allegiance. It doesnt matter if you have been on that list for four long years, you can be knocked off it in a matter of months. Because, that's how fucking life works. That's how it has worked for years now. You do not question how life works, or try to change it, or try a new approach. How crazy are you to try that? So probably poverty and lack of opportunity is something the world should accept. I mean, there is only so much to go around, then there is survival of the fittest, and oh, someone's got to be the palanquin bearer, right?
Lesson 2:
Start assuming everything/everyone you have in life is temporary.
Except for non-living things, of course. Perhaps, even the people who you have to accept, like family. Those you can love unconditionally. There is nothing called 'forever'. That term, like free will, is an illusion man created to allude you into believing life doesn't suck. Nothing is forever, and should never be. Because, that's how fucking life works. Accept it. The control it gives you over your life is just amazing. Imagine to be *in* *control*. Not be at the mercy of someone you trusted. Not be at the mercy of someone's very practical loyalty (yeah, oxymoron of the 21st century). No matter how much you care for someone, you should care for yourself most. You can care for them, and watch them suffer. Because...that's right, you are catching up...it's how fucking life works. People move on all the time. Pain is part of life. You don't avoid it. You feel it and get strongggger! Because what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Because...yes, that. I mean, practices like marriage are merely a means of convenience. You wake up one day and pretty much tell yourself, I am bored of this game now, let's just do what everyone does in life, get married to the one I woke up with today. She is nice (because that is a very laudable genuine quality, very rare to find, especially in a world filled with people like me). Forget emotionally connecting with people, or the value they add to your life. You can always manage that with anyone right, just keep an open mind and put your will to it, and you can believe yourself into anything. But waking up with someone nice, at the right time in life, now that, is true magic. And don't we all know magic rarely happens.
