Beautiful entry and so meaningful!

Very well said, Sue. I agree with life is satisfying once we stop focusing on other's happiness and instead of focusing on ourselves. It was a difficult lesson but one that changed my life.

Yeah, there's " No Mr Wizard to fix it!".
Excellent truths on the reality of life. Well written on life truths. I can also relate 😺!

Agreed. Letting go is the hardest. Second hardest: It ain't fair, and it's not going to be.

Amazing post.

"Life goes on, long after the joy of living is gone" from Mellencamp's "Jack and Diane".

Yes, I've endured.

And yes, I've run away to survive.

Life goes on.

Hardest lesson? Letting go.

In response to "The ten percent"

Oh Wow! I wasn't expecting you to put God as our business partner at the end. I was too busy getting mad at the man in the story who kept the 100%.
Great story plot, btw. You certainly zeroed in on the man's ingratitude effectively. I guess, we all experience a bit of that ingratitude at one time or another in our lives. A big Ooops!

I agree the lack of love for ourselves keeps us from being the best we can be.

So true! You are very courageous to walk away from someone that would probably not be of much help to you in your life.

Sounds like it's a great place to explore the sites and to try new food. Thanks for sharing.

Cut Down

Cut down whatever appears in the mind.

When thoughts of mundane matters arise, cut them off. When notions of Buddhism arise, likewise lop them off. In short, destroy all ideas, whether of realization, of Buddhas, or of devils, and all day long pursue the question "What is it that hears this preaching?"

When you have eradicated every conception until only emptiness remains, and then cut through even the emptiness, your mind will burst open and that which hears will manifest itself. Persevere, persevere-never quit halfway-until you reach the point where you feel as though you have risen from the dead.

Only then will you be able to wholly resolve the momentous question "What is it that hears this preaching?"
