It passes

Whatever comes, it always passes, all things, situations, events, people and so on are temporary.

Yet the mind convinces is that they are permanent. Either for the good or the bad.

If we accept what is and accept people as they are, then whatever occurs we can be at peace with it.

Alternatively, we can allow our mind to make us suffer with its attachments to all things and all people.

These attachments don’t bring joy they bring expectations, conditions and that leads to burden on others and suffering within.

Acceptance allows inner peace and letting go of attachments allows us to accept.

It passes and that’s ok. Just be.

The leaning tower of Pisa

It’s amazing that we seek perfection in life, yet the things that attract us are not perfect. The things we really love are imperfect.

Who would visit the leaning tower of Pisa if it was straight? A lot fewer people is the answer.

Allow our imperfections to blossom and let go of the suffering of chasing perfection.
