RE: Another Equanimity post/ If you are not going to contradict something, skip this article.
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I am here to contradict as instructed......lol
Yes, I know that life has two face as a coin
The good and bad, and we have to learn to accept that
We will always have the opposite of life, day and night; good and evil; light and darkness; sweet and sour; etc
And you said we have to learn to control our emotions and repressed certain attitude in order not to offend people who are close to us, like our friends
Yet, you mentioned, how the mirror doesn't try to please anyone but shows exactly what it sees
I love that you said, we ought to practice detachment........Know this and know peace
If there is something we cannot have, all we have to do is behave as though it is not there. That is because the King ignore what he wants to ignore, and acknowledges what he wants to
So anyone who is in the service of the king does the same. This rule is not just for kings alone but for all of us.
However, you contradicted this too by saying, even if we try to ignore them, it doesn't necessarily mean they are gone. We have them somewhere in our minds and might affect our emotions in the process.
We have all been in certain situations that made us want to hide. So we create shells for ourselves, hoping that being defensive takes away the effect.
We look into the present and the future with the experiences we had from the past. No one said we need to entirely forget them
No! We ought to remember them but not to bear grudges, but to guide us so we do not repeat the same mistakes
All in all, we are supposed to learn to be patient. We should never be found hurrying. It only shows, we have no control over ourselves and time itself
We should not totally depend on others for our happiness, or whatever, we should be self-reliant. And probably turn the tables around, by learning to keep other people dependent on us.
Wait a minute! Why does it look like I am not contradicting anything you said? hehhehehhehehe
Infact, let me stop talking sef...lol
In short, I love going back to the game and being able to read your comments, in fact I have come across other articles which I want to comment on and among them are surely some of yours, in fact I would like to know how you take the time and space to be really active in community. (It's something you have all my admiration for)
Thanks for taking the time to read and reply!
hehehhehhehehheheheeh
I have just one weakness.....If I love something or someone, I flaunt them around with no shame
I have fallen in love with the community
And my actions prove it better than words
hehehehhehe....Don't listen to me, I might as well be telling a lie.....lol
Thank you so much for the appreciation......It makes me want to do more....no, don't look at me like that, I am shy....lol
