Life and Everything in Life is an addiction !

Life and Everything in Life is an Addiction !

We all seem to like consistency , predictability and certainty . It feels safe , I assume !
There is an in built mechanism that wants to establish a smooth flow of events . 
We like to repeat things that we enjoy or like .
We are creatures of habits .
As we keep doing the same thing over and over , we then start to do without even thinking or being conscious of the doing . It becomes automatic , second nature . 
This craving for consistency is a very strong belief system .
It is safe and also saves energy !
We don't have to be always on alert or guarded .
We can do things without thinking . We assume or sort of expect the nature of events , relationships and outcomes . We like it that way .
We actually get attached to this way of living . 
After some time we actually take that for reality and the truth !
If we are into  turmoil , we get upset , confused and even shocked !
How did it happen any other way ?!
It was not meant to be any other way !
That pattern of predictability that we expect becomes our lifestyle .
In fact , our very character is just a collection of habits !
The fact that this is just a belief pattern and not the reality or truth is completely forgotten !
In our ignorance we live in this make belief world !
We hold on so tight to our way that we are all addicted to this life !
We are not prepared at any cost to just be ! we refuse or are in denial to understand that the whole of life is a process that is always changing every moment !
We have become robotic in our ways of living !
We have even given names to such patterns !
We call them traditions , culture , beliefs and are so proud to maintain them or keep holding them at any cost !
We are doing all we can to go against the natural flow of life !
That to us feels safe and certain !
Not knowing that ,that actually keeps us trapped and in the prison of thoughts !
That is the source of our fear !
Deep within we all know that we are all just living a temporary life that is ever changing !
Yet , we go on denying the


truth or reality and hence the fear !
That is our strange and weird way .
The only way out of this trap or addiction is to become aware first .
Then we simply learn to let go !
We start to live a life of just going with the flow of events !
Living in the ever present moment of now !
That will bring peace , happiness and freedom !
That will do for today !
Take care . Love.
Amar.
