Free time is mostly devoted to getting ready for work, going to work, returning to work, and recovering from work.". Bob Black in the End of Work.
The slave starts to understand that they are not just a slave; they are a person with their own thoughts, desires, and capabilities. The master, who seemed so powerful at first, is actually dependent on the slave, making their power less meaningful. This process of change and understanding is not about winning a fight, but about how the mind comes to know itself. - Hagel’s Master Slave theory simplified.
The pursuit of desires and negating them is a manifestation of the search for freedom and mastery over the external world.- Hagel

Religion is a sense making tool. It gives meaning to your suffering, it gives you mantras when you are in trouble. It gives you hope that your good deeds and hard work will bear fruit.

Everything happens for good. This is the most cliche thing you can hear. Also, this is almost used looking back. While eveyone wants it their way, but sometimes you can use to pacify your ego, be a good loser? Sometimes it used as a sign of surrender. I did my best, but this is God’s plan so it must be for the best! Do you also believe in “Everything happens for Good”
