"Unless you sit in the fire of your own pain and suffering, you can not help someone else." Monnica Williams, Ph.D., I will remember this quote.

[EsotericHighway]

I wanted to be a therapist until I saw that political ideology has completely infiltrated the field of psychology.

Social Justice is essentially cultural Marxism, which is an ideology that needs class conflict to survive. It always leads to more division and the collapse of cultures. That’s literally what the people behind it’s construction were intending (Frankfurt school).

Every single person on this planet is a unique individual, living their own unique lives, having their own unique experiences.

When will we see people as unique individuals? White guilt/shame? When will we talk about personal responsibility and accountability? Collective responsibility is very bizarre and doesn’t lead to anything good.

There are good and bad people of every skin color. There are people of lower and higher consciousness of every skin color. There are racist people of every culture. It’s really that simple.

We live in a culture obsessed with finger pointing, emotionalism, and lumping everybody into groups and categories.

Until we move to seeing every single human being as an individual and encouraging self change, there will be no True progress..
