Suffering is optional

 

Today's lesson:

After waited for more than ½ an hour for that parking lot only to be overtaken by another car who came swiftly in.

 

First reaction is scrutinizing my own mistake ie what have gone wrong that caused the failure...i begin screaming at the top of my lung and crying too.

 

This is when the benefit of feeling your feelings came into power. You are disappointed with yourself, you are angry at the situation. Feel it, let it come *through* you and allow the serenity to come back in. As a final thought came in i decided, the main thing that i lost...is time.

 

Next thing i know, there's an empty parking lot just around the corner that i have pass through multiple time while waiting for the previous parking lot...its even closer walking distance to my office building.

 

So our mental state should not be thinking about what happened, what have gone wrong...instead, 

Its about...Surrender.

What you want no doubt is what is 'perfect' for you.

But what's for you may be far from perfect but its the best. Why? Because... its for you.

 

Take it ☺️
