Non-serious people will not be ambitious for money, or political power; they would rather enjoy existence.
This quote delves into the deep-rooted societal suppression of playfulness within individuals, highlighting how societies, cultures, and civilizations often discourage playfulness due to its association with non-seriousness. The playful individual is viewed as not serious, hence not easily dominated or manipulated into pursuing power, wealth, or status.
The essence of childhood, characterised by playfulness and curiosity, is emphasised as a fundamental aspect of human nature that persists life. Despite societal pressures, the childlike spark remains within everyone, influencing behaviours and choices until the end of one’s life.
Society’s apprehension towards non-serious individuals stems from their reluctance to conform to societal norms of pursuing material success and ego-driven ambitions. While non-serious individuals prioritise enjoying life and existence, this ethos stands in contrast to the societal emphasis on ego fulfilment, power, and prestige.
The transformative power of playfulness is highlighted as a liberating force that diminishes the ego’s hold over individuals. By engaging in playful activities, such as interacting with children, one can shed layers of self-importance and reconnect with their inner childlike innocence. This process of rekindling playfulness is portrayed as a universal experience that has the potential to awaken a sense of joy, freedom, and authenticity in everyone.
