What is, is.
There are things we cannot change. What is, is, and we cannot change it. Suffering exists. All suffering has a cause, whether it be from some external source, or internal. It is. It’s existence is unquestionable. To grow beyond it, we must accept it.
The cause of suffering is not always clear. It could be from a bad mood caused by a road rage incident, or a thoughtless clerk in some store. Someone might have tread on your foot while you were wearing flip-flops. Or maybe you ate something that gave you gas.
Whatever the cause, suffering exists. When we accept it, it no longer has power over us. We can see the cause of the suffering and move beyond it.
I suffer because I am unwell inside.
My mind is muddled. This is caused by a chemical imbalance (I assume) in my brain. Or, I am insane and simply don’t know it yet.
I can stop my suffering.
When I suffer, I am lost. I cannot focus, enjoy life, or see the beauty in the world around me. But, there is hope! I can move beyond my suffering. I can take control of my life and forge my own destiny.
Logic is the key.
A logical mind is the mind of the wise. Logic is the beginning of wisdom, someone once said. Wisdom is the antidote of ignorance, the cure for unhappiness, and the answer to the question.
I suffer because I am unhappy.
I can stop the suffering.
Wisdom and Logic are the key.
Now to find the door. . . .
