Seeking security and perfection is like trying to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. There is no fresh air, no room for something to come and interrupt all that and sooner or later you will have an experience you can’t control. Life is challenging; sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter. Try to experience each moment as new and fresh.
Through our life we have failures, humiliation and acquire scars from injuries; both physical and emotional trauma. The true course of healing is up to us alone. Through self-cultivation we can overcome our personal phobias and emotional scars. As we do this, try to acquire as few new problems as possible.
Begin a difficult task in its easy stage because larger problems grow from small ones. Be aware of those who promise quick and easy solutions. Accept problems as challenges; do not dwell on them, take action. You can accomplish great tasks with a series of small acts.
Before you make a change ponder over it again and again. After the change is made, it is necessary for some time to note carefully how the improvements bear the test of actuality. This will bring you good fortune.
Quote: Believe nothing, no matter where you heard it or who said it, even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense. —The Buddha
