What causes suffering is trying to avoid the facts of life, trying to avoid pain and trying to seek happiness, but pain and difficulty are all a part of life and cannot be avoided. Practice accepting all that comes your way and looking for the learning and healing that all things bring you.
We are all on a path through life. It is the change from one stage to another, the dealing with circumstances, the expression of your inner character against the background of nature and society. On a metaphysical level it is the evolution, and movements of the cosmos itself.
We are stuffed with trivia; the more trivia, the more anxieties. We are led to believe consequences are grave when we fail to distinguish good from evil. Don’t become obsessed with trivialities, be open and accept all things as they are and share this simple idea with others.
When things reach their upper limit, they alternate and change direction. If the situation is unfavorable, do not blame others and restrain yourself to keep the situation from worsening. Only by accepting the situation and being patient will you find success.
Quote: Never do anything against conscience, even if the state demands it. —Einstein
