The Better Way is always you trying so hard to be all you can be by being better than as many people as you can. The problem with this is no matter how much better you are than anybody else you are not anywhere near being the Best you must be to really find yourself.
To be sure you are born alone—-to be sure you are inside yourself—- all by yourself— while you live each moment and when all your energy, hopes and answers from all the fallacies you have built falter you will know for sure you die alone.
The Better Way looks out and sees all the wonders out there. It wants us to feel all the beauty and majesty of everything we can touch, imagine, understand and hope for. The sin of this is you must look always outside yourself to find your purpose for being and the justification of all your fears, doubts and sorrows. The Better Way is hard-and-fast about using competition to find questions and creating answers to satisfy your heart and mind. However, these questions and answers are at worst—- too often foolish and at best just not enough for what we really need to be happy and fulfilled for our entire lives.
THE Best Way competes with no one. In no way does it waste time and energy forever looking outside itself trying so desperately to be better than everyone else. The BEST Way knows there are infinities out there but has the wisdom to know there are infinities within each human being which are vast and have far more relevance for our well being here and every where our journeys might force us to endure. The Best Way teaches us if we do not learn from what is within us — what we learn from dust to beyond the stars will only teach us how to destroy our place in existence.
The Better Way always leads to defeat because what ever you chose to be better than everyone else—- there will always be someone better than you, The Better Way thus creates anger, jealousy, animosity, hate and even more self doubt and emptiness. The Better Way needs and lust for competition for without it the Better Way can not win and be the hero of so many.
The Best Way only looks within itself with love, kindness, patience, fortitude, humility and the wisdom of the Soul——- to find the best ways to be the best it can be.
