■ We can’t long for something we don’t know.
■ Which means we can only long for something we already know.
■ And basically that’s it.

■ Because by striving to get what we long for,
■ we can only get something we long for,
■ wich is something we already know,
■ wich is (from the) past,
■ which is old,
■ which is dead.

■ But then, BOOM, the Law of Attraction kicks in. (Well, it’s there all the time, but anyway.)
■ And this law of attraction attracts everything you long for.
■ Not only what you are focused on, not only what you want it to attract, not only what’s in your mind,
■ everything.
■ So you get all the dead rubbish you longed for, a pile of dead rubbish, by this law of attraction.

■ So longing is useless.
■ It brings us on a side path.
■ A side path back to the past.
■ Away from the Now.
■ Away from the New.
■ Because we we can only get something we already know (by longing), which is old.
■ A side path where we just get old rubbish (by longing).
■ Where we just get dead things (by longing).
■ Where we just get death (by longing).
■ Where we are just going to die ourselves (by longing).
■ That’s why we have to STOP LONGING.
■ If we want to keep living.
■ If we want to START living.
(This also goes for your next life. And your next next life… and your next next next life and so on.)
■ Buddha called it already ‘Nirvana‘, living without longings.
