Delusion



"It is a common delusion that you make things better by talking about them."
- Rose Macaulay

"A nation is a society united by a delusion about its ancestry and by common hatred of its neighbours."
- William Ralph Inge

"Affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion."
- Jim Rohn

"Celebrity gives us delusion of self importance."
- Al Goldstein

Whatever delusional world you choose to live in, you are living in a different world than anyone else. I really wish we could just be concerned about ourselves, instead of misdirecting our attention to someone else so as never to heal our own problems. Never to even see them. To always focus on something outside of ourselves. Seems less painful, but in the long run it will prove to be way more painful. So much so that it may break some individuals who didn't have the chance to develop themselves properly becasue of this ever growing delusional place. We are in control of our thoughts and what we choose to find purpose in.
