Managing, Expanding, Waking Up

Psychotherapy helps us manage our lives. As do counsellors, coaches, self-help books, YouTube videos, spreadsheets, accountants, personal assistants, personal trainers, friends and family. As sometimes do drugs, prescribed or otherwise.

Literature helps us expand our horizons. As does philosophy, psychology, anthropology, religion, art, music, poetry, film, travel, a liberal education and good conversation. As do some drugs.

Meditation helps us wake up and be here now. So do some drugs, sometimes.

And now these three remain: managing, expanding, waking up; but the greatest of these is waking up.
