#146 – Who knows what's good and what's bad?

Read online

I could be thankful for the things I have in my life that I deem to be "good." But how can I be sure what these apparently "good" things will devolve into?

I could be miserable for the things in my life that I consider "bad." But again, who's to say they'll stay "bad" forever?

So, why not be thankful for everything and to everyone?

Why not, instead of judging, simply experience life as it comes? Instead of dividing things into what I like and don’t like, why not accept everything just as it is? And instead of wanting what I don’t like to change so that I can like it, why not be grateful for the experiences I’m given?

When I'm able to do that, I'll be free: I'll have nothing to avoid and nothing to chase.

That's why resisting the "bad" and grasping the "good" are futile. Because, after all, "who's to say what's good or bad?"

What "good" and "bad" labels do you need to let go of so you can become free?

Love,
