Discontent

So it finally came.  One less thing to slightly to worry about.  Been a rough week. Better if less is said. Words do more damage at times.  Sometimes silence is really golden.  So much dissatisfied people.  It's like everything that comes out of your mouth is about some discontent.  What is truly excellence?  Is it all your achievements?  It is material excellence?  Why we have to meet all these goals that others put on you?  The more I ask, the more questions I have.  Is it good enough?  Why we can not settle for good enough.  We always have to try to be better.  Always have to be chasing something better.

We can never know another person, so how can we judge? Never mind what we or others have done previously. "There is no such thing as a criminal, only a person who once committed a crime" [Ajahh Brahm]. 

All that matters is what we do now, how we show kindness, compassion and forgiveness to ourself and others.

Feeling is not a problem. What we experience is not a problem. Holding on to it is the problem; that is suffering. Letting go is the end of suffering.

You don't always have to be the best. Don't let how others feel or what they think affect you.  People have their own intentions and are always tiring to push their own agenda.  Others want to control you.  And other don't want to to succeed as your success will make them look bad.  We are resentful of others.  Look down on others failures and despise others success. Do not let other change your path.  You will never make them happy if they can not be happy with themselves.  You are who you are.  Can not impose yourself on others.
