About the topic:
Life is short, enjoy every moment because no moment can be recreated. Why do we feel the need to control life? When we try to control life, we become unhappy. If we go with the flow and allow life to unfold, we will be happy. Life is a mixture of happy moments and sad moments. There will be moments in your life when you feel extremely happy and other times you will feel extremely sad. The idea is to enjoy the happy moments and learn from the sad moments. Each moment has its own importance. So why do we judge the good and the bad? We can learn from both. Life is neither bad nor good. It just is. Pain is a sensation from your body that is asking you to pay attention! If you pay attention to what your body is trying to tell you, you will be able to heal it. When something isn't right, your body is going to tell you. When you have pain in the body, it's like that part is asking for attention as well. It wants to be healed and needs more focus and energy. When we lack attention, then pain happens. The term 'bruised ego' comes from the feeling of being hurt and our self esteem goes down when told that we lack in some area. Why do we feel pain or hurt? It's because we have an ego! When we drop our ego and go beyond pain, we won't get 'hurt', we will only learn and grow. When someone says something hurtful to us, our ego gets bruised. When we get corrected for something and we feel guilty- we feel hurt and offended, or sad when we are told something we don't like and don't understand why we get angry. If we are able to drop our ego and go beyond, nothing will be able to hurt us. In fact, if someone points something out to us, it gives us awareness and we should thank them for bringing it to our attention. Life is like a photo album. We have to enjoy each picture because no picture can be recreated.
