You get involved with events – external to your life. At first you express an interest and then pretend interest. Then it becomes an interest; then it becomes your interest; then it becomes your passion, and finally it becomes your reality. Yet, when the cause is gone, there remains little of your own. You strive to sustain your new reality, forgetting who you were. You have controllers, often calling to keep you involved, a psychological affirmation. You are asked to contribute, a material affirmation. You are asked to participate, a physical affirmation. Your life has been co-opted and then compounded by the interests of others. Whether religion or politics, my friend, you are part of a cult. ---------------------------------- Sometimes the breakthrough comes just when the back is ready to break.
