Can we accept what is? Can we let what is be? Can we allow what is to be?
Strange questions again, someone might say. Of course. If it’s not strange, it’s known, and if it’s known, it means there’s nothing new. And if there’s nothing new, we’re trapped in a world of deadness. We’re trapped in a world without life.
Life is new every moment. Not one moment is the same as the previous one. We are the ones who have programmed ourselves to think that every day is the same, until something unusual happens. And this is mostly something shocking. Because only this shakes us out of the “monotonous” world. Only this way do we pause to think that maybe everything isn’t as solid and unchangeable as we always think.
We would like to change many things. And there’s nothing wrong with that. The problem is when we want to change something over which we have no control or power.
Why do we even want this?
Do our own beliefs tell us what the world should be like?
If these are beliefs, which they most likely are, then perhaps the problem isn’t in the world, since the world is what it is, but in the beliefs that are not aligned with reality.
Perhaps the real question would be, can we abandon beliefs and accept the world as it is?
Can we stop resisting the world that surrounds us and that is within us?
