The reason you want to be better is the reason why you aren't
We aren't better because we want to be
Because the road to hell is paved with good intentions
Because all the do-gooders in the world
Whether they are doing good for others or doing it for themselves
Are trouble-makers
We aren't better because we want to be
Sometimes doing good to others
And even doing good to oneself
Is amazingly destructive
Because it's full of conceit
How do you know what's good for other people?
How do you know what's good for you?
If you say you want to improve
Then you ought to know what's good for you
But obviously you don't
Because if you did you would be improved
So we don't know
You can't be designedly spontaneous
And you cannot be genuinely loving
By intending to love
Either you love someone or you don't
If you pretend to love a person
You deceive them
And build up
Reasons for resentment
How do you know what's good for other people?
Doing something about your situation is not going to help
When you see equally that trying not to do anything about it
Is not going to help
Where are you? Where do you stand?
You are simply reduced to watching
