Where is the life we have lost in living?

Uncompromising and Relentless Recklessness

Carl Jung once summarized everything he'd learned as a psychologist by saying this: Humanity tends to project its inner world onto the outer world. If you're always seeing people, lets say, as hard and demanding, chances are that you are hard and demanding on yourself and the world is hard and demanding on you. We see out there through what's already in our own minds. Given how messed up we all are in our relationships and going on's, it takes a whole lot for us to forgive ourselves instead of hating it in others. As my man behind the Future Looks says, it comes down to possessing a mentality that's all about living from the inside out rather than the outside in.

Stop judging, that you may not be judged.  For as you judge, so will you be judged, and the measure with which you measure will be measured out to you.  Why do you notice the splinter in your brothers eye, but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own eye?  How can you say to your brother, Let me remove that splinter from you eye?  You hypocrite, remove the wooden beam from your eye first; then you will see clearly to remove the splinter from your brothers eye.  (Matthew 7:1-5)

I'm digging this band Warpaint. Bunch of sun lovin' gals from California that make music for mystery and romance. Midnight swooning under a monster droopy leaf in the courtyard garden. An hour long track of rain playing softly behind every song on their new album coming out in October would sound perfect. Here's Billie Holiday.
