    Ah, so it’s a narrative control thing. Controlling the narrative (including the narrative of me, my ego or whatever) is important.

    Well this begs another question. “Why is the narrative so important”?

    I mean, we stand in the midst of a constant hurricane of sights, sounds, thoughts, vibes and nameless sensations, but the narrative gets this primary role.

    You gotta ask why.

      Maybe we value the wrong things. Maybe greed is a lack perspective, too much isn’t enough. Kind of like people who lived during the Great Depression or had parents who insisted no penny would be spent on bubble gum.
