We all know the helicopter parent society we live in where people are in continuous fear of something bad happening and yet more and more bad things are being discovered. New allergies, new diseases and most of all, all kinds of new disorders.
The following quote was in an multi-article blog post about a concept called "Food Reward":
...This also implies that obesity may not be a disorder, but rather a normal response to the prevailing dietary environment in affluent nations.
BOOM!
That's the most powerful sentence I've read in a while. The concept being that people are literally fighting against the current. The entire word, DISORDER, is based on the concept that things are not in order.
But what if being three hundred pounds is perfectly in order IN THIS SOCIETY.
What if being addicted to porn is perfectly in order IN THIS SOCIETY.
What if hating who you are and how you look is perfectly in order IN THIS SOCIETY.
A few extra side points. What order are you building in your life that makes things normal? What order do you build at your Job that makes things normal? What is your spiritual order and what do you consider normal spiritual happenings?
