The Happiness Podcast

115 - Marching to the Beat of Another’s Drum


Listen Later

There is never a minute when, consciously or unconsciously, you are not aware of or attuned to the reactions of others, marching to the beat of their drums. When you are ignored or disapproved of, you experience a loneliness so unbearable that you crawl back to people and beg for the comforting drug of reassurance called approval. To live with people in this state involves a never-ending tension. A nice definition of an awakened person is someone who no longer marches to the drums of society, a person who dances to the tune of the music that springs up from within.  Awake up! Life is a banquet. Enjoy it.
