Day 122: Impatient character


The impatient character rushes around impatiently wanting their will to be done within an instant. “It is my will must be done otherwise you are wasting my time

There is no regard for what is here within and as the physical as seeing that for a plant to grow it takes time and it also takes time for the vegetable of the plant to mature. Just because we want to eat a carrot, does not mean that we can have it right now, patients is required for the vegetable to grow into a mature plant that can be eaten.

But within our McDonalds life styles we had been taught that we can get everything we want in an instant, just as long as we have the money to pay for what it is that we want. So we have been brainwashed into a McDonalds lifestyle where we can get what we want at the snap of our fingers.

We have lost touch with reality in seeing that for things to manifest within and as physical requires planning and patients when we would like to manifest points that will be beneficial for ourselves into and as the physical.

So – When we stand in queues in the shopping markets – All we see is ‘our time’. How much time it is taking us to stand waiting in the queue, how much time we have left in the day to get to all the things that we still have to do, all the time it will still take us to make dinner, clean up, do our chores, etc. We do not consider the time that it has taken for the products that we consume as food, has taken to grow, be made, be packaged. No – Our focus is just on our time.

Our time has become more important than understanding the consequential outflows of space and time and understand the earth that we live in, understanding the cycles that are required for us to be able to live, breath and be here. The impatient character is a product of our consumer industry where our focus have changed from what is here as life to a self-interested participating that has needs and requirements that trump the physical realities timelines.

We justify our impatience by telling others that they are wasting our time, because “time is money you know”, showing to ourselves how we had used consumerism to justify our actions of impatience; never actually allowing ourselves to look at the root design of impatience where we are wanting immediate results within and as our environment.

Similarly when we already know the answer to a specific situation / question – We become impatient, because we already know the answer and is not willing to wait for others to get to know the answer. We already have the reward (what we want) so now - it is time to move onto the next thing – still using the consumerism as a ‘getting what we want system’ as a backdrop to our interaction with others. Never stopping and looking at the process that is involved in understanding reality and understanding the cycles that is required to be walked for a point to come to fruition.
