I'm ugly and everything i do is ugly. I need to stop trying to express myself because i only produce ugliness. Everything the trees do is justified and they make me feel frivolous and clumsy. people are trees and their disdain is justified. I can't relate with nature anymore because it makes me feel ugly. Nature is rhythmic and fractal and i am not, I am clumsy and cartoonish. Being part of the scenery is not an option. Being a dog is no longer an option. I am a closed system where new ideas are not allowed and old ideas are losing fidelity. Why do the trees have to be so graceful? How can i return to a more vegetative state of less responsibility without being irresponsible? Humans are perfect, I am not perfect. I hear some yogis knew the secret to invisibility, that might help.

Sorry, this doesn't ring true to me. Trash talk. Doesn't feel like a cri de coeur.

Matthew 12:33 “Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.
I doesn't believed that nobody is perfect; but to be perfect it says to do this in the Bible in order to become perfect, Matthew 19:21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” Well that is a fact that no one is perfect, that is why we all need to be under grace because we are so weak.

I recommend reading practicing the presence of God by brother Laurence. This book helped me to understand grace and how to recieve. so much of what our life consists of is determined by the attitude and intention with which we do things.
The more selfish we are, the more opportunity we give to things to go wrong.
