Let life be your teacher

There can be no resolution leading to growth until the present situation has been faced completely and you have opened to it with mindfulness, allowing the roughness of the situation itself to sand down your own rough edges. In other words, you must be willing to let life itself become your teacher. – Jon Kabat-Zinn

In other words: resistance is futile. 🙂 For me it has truly boiled down to that. Surrender now feels like the most reasonable and sane thing and brings rewards daily even if the sanding process is also painful.

GENERAL DISCLAIMER: I often publish authors whose articles I appreciate while maybe not agreeing with everything. My pieces, also, cannot stand alone. Some of my work contains ideas that may sometimes seem to contradict other pieces because all cannot be said in a short essay. It's wise to not make assumptions based on a few posts. Attitudes have also not remained stagnant over time and the archives reflect the passage of time. Some articles may contain links to other resources on the Internet.
