“The fact is that very few of us know what words mean; fewer still take the trouble to enquire. We calmly, we carelessly assume that our minds are identical with that of the writer, at least on that point; and then we wonder that there should be misunderstandings! The fact is (again!) that usually we don’t really want to know; it is so very much easier to drift down the river of discourse, ‘lazily, lazily, drowsily, drowsily, In the noonday sun.'” https://library.hrmtc.com/2026/05/14/the-fact-is-that-very-few-of-us-know-what-words-mean-fewer-still-take-the-trouble-to-enquire-we-calmly-we-carelessly-assume-that-our-minds-are-identical-with-that-of-the-writer-at-least-on-that/ #aleisterCrowley #assume #book #calmly #carelessly #discourse #donTReallyWant #downTheRiver #drift #drowsily #enquire #fact #fewerStill #identicalWithThat #know #lazily #magickWithoutTears #misunderstandings #noondaySun #ourMinds #quote #soVeryMuchEasier #takeTheTrouble #toKnow #veryFewOfUs #whatWordsMean #wonder #writer -
Everyone complains about #stress. Where does this feeling come from?
We are constantly exposed to signals and demands from our environment. At work, we don't have a moment when we don't receive emails or calls. New tasks come at us at a pace that makes it impossible to work through them #calmly and accurately.
That's the sad truth: We never get any #peace. We have forgotten how to be #alone with ourselves. And in this way, we are not living our own #lives, but the lives of others.
