Great essay. A book recommendation for you: Brian Mahan’s Forgetting Ourselves on Purpose- Vocation and the Ethics of Ambition (2010).
Mayan is a Christian educator who ends each chapter with thinking/writing assignments. A book that should be read slowly for greatest impact. You might find this book useful in your journey.
I used the book a few times in a Leadership and Work course I taught at a (secular) private, science university as one of several choices for students’ final paper and presentation.
Oddly enough, this book “called to me” while pursuing books in a bookshop…not the first time that a book called to me.
I completely agree with what you have so eloquently expressed here, Jonas!
An added thought: I realize the Church does not generally endorse this view, but the concept of separateness is only in this 3rd density illusory reality; in the real reality we are all One. Therefore, indeed, why make so much effort to enhance the individual 'self' rather than the Oneness of all?!
Amen to all of this, Jonas.
Amen to that prayer at the end.
