Underpinned by this quote from an audio by Sydney Banks -
“Seriousness, like life, is a thought and this thought creates a feeling. If you create the feeling of seriousness then you are in a very serious state. You liable to have stress and strain and sickness and unhappiness and jealousy and everything else because of seriousness. Now seriousness doesn’t help you do anything in life but destroy yourself.”
