Ah, the deep questions are pestering you. Rest assured that this period is normal, in time it will work out by itself. In this state it seems that we need just one more tidbit of wisdom to resolve our doubts, the thing is: this wisdom must come from within, not from the outside. I too, come from a corrupt country with similar problems (Mexico), and having experienced living in more developed countries I observe that the range of “wickedness” to “goodness” is much wider in our developing nations. It is true indeed that one can feel like a sucker when it’s the cheaters, the liars, and the corrupt who apparently come out ahead in life. But it’s all bullshit! How can a liar, a cheater, and a corrupt person find true love, his true passion, his true meaning?

These people do what they do because they are primates trying to impress other primates to get laid more. They do so not out of evil, but out of ignorance. The path of righteousness is one of truth, integrity and authenticity. The key to not feeling like a sucker is to accept everything life puts forward, and to seek justice only for others, not for yourself.

The sage is kind to the kind. The wise sage is also kind to the unkind. Because the nature of the sage’s being Is kindness. Lao Tse
