Vanity… is a dirty word!

I want to preface by saying that I will not be offended if you stop reading this post.

That is because it is about people’s blindness, vanity, and mindlessness blinded by love or lust.

If that doesn’t interest you, then there’s no reason for you to continue reading.

But if it piques your interest, please read on…

In contrast… Songs about the blindness of the heart and the vanity of the mind are sung at weddings across the country.

It says, “Love is blind.” So when someone falls in love, they cannot see anything wrong with their partner, even though they might have apparent flaws (and sometimes deal breakers).

People think this happens only once in a lifetime, but I don’t see it this way.

Minds exist primarily for self-expression.

The mind’s vanity is a dangerous condition that can lead to corruption and decay.

This obsession with oneself leads us down a path where our thoughts, words, or deeds become nothing more than an expression of feelings with no purposeful intent behind them;

A sad disguised as wisdom!Vanity of mind

What are the results?

Focusing on what you’re going through instead – which will only make things worse over time since those emotions are only temporary.

The vanity of the mind…

Similarity… It means everything and nothing; It can be an end by itself, but it’s more often just private thoughts with no real purpose.

They don’t go anywhere because you’re thinking only of your emotions instead of what would make the best choice for others, too (hopefully).

Likewise… Corruption is frequently a byproduct of vanity, and history shows that one thing after another gets worse over time:

For example…

  •  As violence increases, crime rates also rise exponentially.
  • Trump is still president because people began believing conspiracy theories such as they rigged the 2020 election.
  • George Bush carried out 9/11 instead of Al Qaida-so why do we see no advances in the situation?
  • The mind exists primarily for its own sake.
  •  

Vanity keeps a persons in favor of themselves who are out of favor with all others.

Shakespeare.

Be open to the truth… Don’t be blinded by love or controlled by vanity.

Vanity is a spiritual disease where we become self-absorbed in our appearance and abilities.

Many people believe one cannot be blind to the truth, but many facts exist.

In either case, the human mind can become so focused on its basic concepts that it refuses to see a different point of view.

In Conclusion:

The blindness of the heart and the vanity of the mind are the two most common ways to describe what it means to be blind.

I know that may sound like a strange thing, but these words have always stuck with me because they remind us all how important it is to see well and see clearly.

Seeing other people’s perspectives will allow you to understand them better. Now go out there and start seeing things!

Vanity keeps persons in favor of themselves who are out of favor with all others.
