INTO THE ABYSS 190 A

LIFE IS A GAME OF CONNECT THE DOTS, IF YOU DON'T CONNECT ALL THE DOTS OR DON'T CONNECT THEM IN THE RIGHT ORDER YOU NEVER GET THE PICTURE INTO THE ABYSS 190 A Well, it is Labor day, unusually late this year, here it is 5th of the month already. I didn't write last few days, had the grand kids home for the weekend, three year old and 4 month old, how blessed I am to have lived long enough to see them. If you have been reading what I write, I said this much a few times, I have been interested in Psychology for a very long time, even though I didn't get my Master's till I was 38 years old. Anyway, in 1984 I picked up a copy of "Dianetics" by L. Ron Hubbard, you know the basic book of Scientology, I read it cover to cover, and read how one can become "clear" and can become OT. Funny that Scientologists are famously against psychology and I saw how it was all related to psychology, to "confessionals" and to biofeedback, and to some or a large extent to even "lie detection. I will talk about it more in the next chapter. We know how applied psychology is used today, just depends who is using it and for what purpose. I mentioned it earlier that people use certain terms without even realizing that they are revealing their own self and their own motives. And this why one should not be using these terms because they only give themselves away without meaning to. Psychology today is used for marketing, we know that, it is used by politicians to sway your opinion, it is used by casinos, by pimps and even preachers, really. You should be aware. In most cases it is used to harm yourself. But here we are, you can not be on line with seeing offers of "counseling" and therapy, then there are selfhelp books, and self development programs, programs to teach you how to raise kids, and how to mange money, and how to stop self harm, and how to get in a relationship and how to get out of a relationship. How to make someone love you and how to stop loving someone. We have lost it, after thousands of years of existence we forgot how to be and how to live. We all self assured, we are self reliant and we don't even know how to be, welcome to the 21st century. But it is Labor day, we are hard working Americans who have no idea what "work" means, we have know idea how to provide service in a service economy, we have no idea how our workers live, and what it will take for our workers to "make a living", not be happy, just to be fed and clothed, have transportation to work and have health care if they get sick. The workers don't want to work and the bosses don't want to pay. There used to be an old joke we told about the Soviet Union, where workers pretended to work and the bosses pretended to pay, that is what America looks like today. I WILL WRITE MORE SOON M. N.
