[QUOTE="Puff Daddy, post: 327365, member: 3"] I think you misunderstand the notion. What is meant by closing the door to the outside is recognizing the useless bullshit that permeates society and choosing to ignore it as best as is possible. It doesn't mean ignore everything, it's about filtering. Look at facebook and television and talk radio and you'll see what people concern themselves with. Ignore that crap, shut the door on it, take in only what is worthwhile and screw the rest, who cares. Add politics, social engineering, consumerism and the nightly news to that as well. The old guy strolling down the street in a raging storm, smiling to himself. Someone asks him "Don't you see what's going on around here?" "Nope!" Old man keeps on strolling, keeps on smiling. :) [/QUOTE]
