Habitual disuse of Instinct causes loss as in What you dont Use, you Lose.
Habitual misuse of instinct causes abuse of spirit
By misuse of instinct i mean twisting your natural instinct in order to fit it in with or merge with outside INFLUENCE
In other words you recognize your natural instinct but realize that to follow such and BE TRUE TO YOURSELF puts you beyond the pale of ordinary human condition hence the Instinct is blurred and distorted and twisted into more acceptable shape
This is definitely misuse of your instincts and is almost as "BAD" as ignoring them altogether for a fake persona is created that is misleading to those around you
It is not easy to be true to yourself when you dont know who you are and it is not easy to follow your natural instincts when you NO who you are
(word play)(smile)
And it is not easy to be true to yourself when you are a multi-faceted kaleidoscopic prismatic visioned Earth Probe disguised as an ordinary human being
On the other hand, recognizing this "true-ism" is helpful in delineating choices that present themselves
Such as this :
It is not possible to involve oneself in "meaningless" endeavors
It is, however, necessary to involve oneself in activitease that challenge ones perception, stimulate ones imagination and stirs up ones creative juices
thusly : a quest for knowledge and information* . . . learn to differentiate between Information and Knowledge
but to continue :
Meaningless indicates behavior that is vapid, habitual, imitative, lacking in spirit, charm, or humor
Mostly it is repetitive in patterns that are predictably self-absorbing and soul destroying
Often it is necessary to practice meaningless behavior in order to discover what it is and what it is not

Hi, Katherine! It's funny that you should write about this, or that I should read about it, since this has been coming up a bit for me. Well, really, I've been learning the things you mentioned, so my learning is reinforced. :-) I wonder what made you think of this to write about at this time. - Beth http://animperfectlife.blogspot.com
