Impermanence can teach you a lot about how to cheer up. It’s okay if the thoughts of impermanence scare you, this can make you start asking questions and start you wondering. Maybe you are afraid of the most exciting things you have yet to learn.
There are times when we have someone to walk our spiritual path with us, and the time of parting comes without welcome. Walk the path together as long as you can, but if the other must leave, do not hold them back. They won’t suffer; they will just walk a different path.
Trust the intelligence of your body, trust your natural responses and everything will fall into place. When you speak, speak with quietude and sincerity, then your words will be long lasting. Being natural in this way, you embrace everything and everything embraces you.
We should not try to combat our own faults directly; the longer and harder we fight them the more victorious they will be. We fight our faults by making progress in the good, it is the only way. Take care not to become hardened and obstinate, remain receptive to impressions by continuous self-examination.
