VRILL INSIGHTS
LEAP MY FRIEND
"Where are you going?" "Brazil." "Isn't that dangerous?" "Yeah. I hope it is."
I spent two years in Spain living off savings. I'm from Sweden. I had no business being there.
My younger brother calls me an academic weapon. School came easy. I was built for academia. The masters, the PhD, a career funded by the very industries I despise.
That was the choice. Go back and become what I was designed to be. Or do what everyone and everything, except God, was telling me not to do.
Eight months ago I chose.
Men are wired for danger. We are the dispensable sex.
We romanticize the post apocalyptic world without considering why. And, we think about Rome way too often.
Most men throughout history never had children. The ones who did weren't just lucky. They were the ones willing to risk everything.
The gamble either killed them or elevated them. There was no safe middle.
We have been selecting for men who move toward danger, not away from it. You are the descendant of those men.
The wild west wasn't just a time and place. It was the psychological state your entire bloodline was built for.
That state has been systematically dismantled.
The responsible system is an organism. It doesn't hate you, but it needs your compliance (i fkn hate that word) to survive. It has rebranded compliance as a virtue.
The good job feels like success. Safety and stability is responsible. Settling is wise.
The chains imposed on us are real in effect but imaginary in substance. Since the day we were born we have been trained to impose them on ourselves.
Do not let this breed resentment. The system does what any organism does. It survives.
The truth will set you free but only if you remove the chains.
Feed the soul or feed the system, your choice. You can't feed both.
The soul needs unknown, genuine risk with unmanaged outcomes.
The system needs predictability.
It is not surprising most of us choose to slowly drift into the system's default and call it life. The river flows in that direction.
At some point, most men try to swim upstream but eventually tire out.
No one ever stopped to ask if one could step out of the river and just walk.
Playing within the systems grip of predictable outcomes, of always knowing where you are going, what you are doing, what comes next makes going against it too hard.
You must take the leap of faith. Trust that if you genuinely move toward what is exciting and at the same time terrifying, God will reward you.
In 8 months I've learnt more about myself that in my previous 8 years as an adult.
I've been forced to let go and have faith that things will work out.
Freedom is not being rich, nor is it the ability to travel anywhere when you want.
Freedom is a state of mind. Without faith you will descend into darkness.
Why do you think the system programmatically dismantles the idea of faith?
Men without faith will never go on the adventure they need. And if they do they will fail because a true adventure without faith is overwhelming to any man.
Take the leap of faith whatever that means for you.
