Expectations
With palms together
Good Morning Everyone,
With hold up as it is, comes hold up as it is. When you design it to be different than it is, you suffer. Yet, this isnt utterly true, is it? Suffering is the outcome of expectations hold close, not expectations themselves. We go by hold up with expectations based upon assumptions about the world. We contingency have such assumptions in sequence to get out of bed in the morning. It would be the challenge to get out of bed if you did not assume it is safe to do so, or which the universe would not treat me fairly, or which if there was not going to be the sure volume of predictability in it. The universe as you know it would come to the halt. It isnt these which have been the means of suffering, but the investment in them.
When you confront an astonishing shift in the day, what does it feel like? How do you reply to it? Does it means us the sure volume of anxiety? How much anxiety? Do you get angry or annoyed?
Holding upon to an idea about how things should be creates pang not the idea. Thoughts have been just thoughts as good as feelings have been just feelings. We practice to experience them as utterly as possible, but then to let them go. If you do not you lift them into the next impulse and, as the result, which impulse suffers from the intrusion, as good as you humour with it.
Do not hold onto expectations: hold them with an open hand.
Be well.Zen wisdom for every day living.
