Unfortunately we’ve been sold an idea that mankind’s ultimate state of being is free from pain, and until we reach that state we remain unenlightened and far from who we really are. This idea is completely and utterly incorrect, when it comes to truth. Freedom to be who you are, is freedom to be who you are right now, in your pain or in your pleasure.
This human experience is one that involves whatever it is you’re going through. The next time your experience seems tough, allow it to be so, and in your allowing seek new perspectives rather than trying to control the event. See your experience independent from emotion, see it as having no meaning, then see it with total acceptance and understand its right to be present.
