Suffering is not unnatural, not abnormal,
it should not be feared or avoided when it arises.
Today I feel like crap.
My mind and body are suffering
and all I want is for it to bugger off.
So I search my mind for reasons,
trying to remove it from my life.
That is ignorance.That is delusion.
Suffering is normal,
and as always, resisting only magnifies it.
I could spend my entire life looking for causes
blaming genes or depression,
blaming someone or something.
Even if I found the cause,
suffering would still be the there.
Suffering is not unnatural, not abnormal but it’s still a pain in the ass.
