What should our feeling be toward our friends who are not points in the heart? I have a group of friends whom I am very close with and have known for a long time. But I struggle to relate to them sometimes because their desires seem to not match mine and I feel frustration and sometimes resentment toward their complacency with material/worldly living. Should I still try to connect with them? Or does only our connection towards other points in the heart matter? In other words, is any effort put toward connecting with non points in the heart wasted and doomed to futility?
Hi, my name is Branden and I am from San Francisco, California, USA. I’m eager to connect with other points in the heart and discover the structure of reality together!
Yes, it almost feels like the external reality, including the behavior of others around me, is dancing to the tune of my inner thoughts and feelings. And to be honest, this is kind of scary, because what if my thoughts become negative?
