The clearest sign you're living 'authentically' or without absurd layers of performance, is found in your willingness to let people from different settings of your life meet each other. If the thought stresses you, it's bc you don't know which character you need to play. Your performances are so different you don't know where your real identity is, or where it's supposed to meet your characters. You're nervous because you've been giving the people in your life different scripts; you know they'll immediately sense when you deviate. And you're about to enter the scene in which you cannot rehearse your lines.
We really CANNOT have sustainable energy because it threatens the oil industry. We cannot have healthcare because it threatens insurance. We cannot have peace because it threatens the weapons industry. Capitalism built a system where doing the right thing is treated like bad business.
Watching the World Cup has me asking questions. Do Europeans get issued 8 weeks of vacation, unlimited airline miles, and a trust fund at birth? Because every match I turn on there are 40,000 fans following their team to a different state or country on a Tuesday afternoon while Americans are hiding in a work bathroom checking scores.
