VIRTUAL WORLD


Our perception of ourselves, our perceived level of our own intelligence, health, and quality of life is fuelled by scales of comparison.

Now imagine we could bring that feeling of flowing with the things around us back into our reality. It would mean dropping the need to compare ourselves to others, and it would also mean dropping the need to compare ourselves to our past or future selves. It would mean we could live in the present. Our thoughts and decisions for the future would inevitably be better ones. So try to flow with whats around you and live in the moment.
