This morning when I woke up I started crying. I don’t even remember what I was crying about. It could have been a dozen different things I was crying about. This life is full of so much sadness. It can be hard to even keep track of what you’re sad about.
But the sadness is just one part of life. Though a big part. This life is a life of pain on a basic level. I think the Buddha said some shit about that. “Life is suffering.”
A lot of the battle of life, for me personally, has been trying to avoid getting overwhelmed by the sadness and pain and suffering of life. And not getting soured and ruined by it.
