I love the word "Why".  I think it's such a great word when used correctly.  One of the things that always drove my parents crazy as I was growing up was that I would ask... why?  And upon their answer... "because"; I would in turn ask...  Because why?

I don't mind doing something, especially if it is necessary.  But I have always hated doing something that I felt completely unnecessary.  So when I was asking why as a child, I was not being defiant, I was sincerely interested in the necessary reason.  The sad part was, there often times was a very good reason.  I suppose they either felt in unnecessary that I knew, or were in just too much of a hurry to bother telling me.

Nowadays I really enjoy using the word "why" to awaken people to their unnecessary stresses, and hopefully break the illusions that bind their true self.  For example... why are you worried about where you will be in 10 years?  Why are you worried about getting hair plugs?  Why are you worried about why everything happens?  Why are you worried about being in 10 places at once?  Why are you worried about what happens to celebrities?  Why are you so worried about what's her name down the street?  Why are you so stressed out about the past, and anxious about the future?  Etc...

Why?  Relax... be patient.  Just as the lotus flowers opens, so too will your mind.  If you are patient enough.
