Everybody Suffers
There is surprising comfort in the notion that everybody suffers. When you are enduring your own brand of suffering, remembering that everybody else is suffering along with you, in their own particular ways, can bring some perspective to your suffering.
If you are suffering a lot, it can be helpful to know that most people also suffer a lot. A good way to identify other people who suffer is to look around you and if you see anybody, or think of any person you know, or have heard of, chances are very good that they suffer, possibly a lot. You are not alone in those feelings.
Although it is comforting to know that you are not the only one who suffers, when you have a handle on your own suffering, you realize how sad it is that so many people are suffering so much. When you feel that sadness for somebody else’s suffering, that is compassion. Even though that compassion feels like sadness, you may notice that it eases your suffering.
Your particular kind of suffering is especially difficult because you feel it directly. It has all of the complex circumstances of your life. Because it is your suffering, you are uniquely qualified to find the remedy. When you have learned how to transcend your suffering, you can use your experience of suffering and the compassion you develop to help everybody else. Please.
i wish you knew of the vast cosmos swirling inside of you
roiling within the void of the depths of your soul
lies a treasure trove of vast wealth
and love ad infinitum
a cache of weaponry
so powerful
it can shake whole realities
and bend them to your will
or disseminate them into
a new plane of truth entirely
the choice is yours
there’s something really wrong with this picture because Brian Kemp is the state attorney general and he should not be able to hold that position and prevent votes from being counted while he is in this race for governor. That is a direct conflict of interest and Stacey Abrams Camp should have been able to get him out of that office if he plans to run for another one. It is not fair that he is counting the votes if he is on the ballot
“You begin to learn from your emotions themselves. To learn from your emotions, practice noticing your emotions. When you feel yourself in the grip of an emotion, breathe compassionately and curiously into the emotion to see what it is teaching you. As you explore your emotions, you train your mind. As you use compassion, you learn skills to address suffering in yourself and others.”

I want to be politically informed and educated but I also wanna have a good day and be in a good mood. Do you see my problem?
