DWL Ep.21. Authority

Episode Summary

Authority; politicians, parents, bosses, advise-givers. I don't do well with those types of people. Why are American's choice between these two? Depression, my step-dad, my mother, mindfulness and appreciating what you've got. It's really a jampacked episode.

Episode Notes

The perfect dictatorship would have the appearance of a democracy, but would basically be a prison without walls in which the prisoners would not even dream of escaping. It would essentially be a system of slavery where, through consumption and entertainment, the slaves would love their servitudes.  - Aldous Huxley

 

The episode starts off with my thoughts on the American election and the country's democracy, or lack thereof.

 

Touch on my Sober October, and how November is going so far, which has not been great. 

 

I discuss my problem with authority, my step-dad and the impact him leaving had on me. My mother and her pain, me not helping then or now and needing to grow up. 

 

I need to try to force my mind and thoughts to be more energetic and positive, something I'd like to hope is possible with practice.
