Be Content Who You Are
Part I
If we spend our life trying to compare or lurk around to see what others are doing, we cause much harm to ourselves. Engaging in this kinda of activity is a complete waste of time. Not to mention it causes much problems in the mind and heart.
As soon as we pass away from this life and unzip out of our body we are equal. We all meet the same fate no matter how rich or poor we are.
Each of us are part of the Tao's heart; we are put on this earth likened in many ways as an assistant. If
someone achieves faster or greater than you;...be honest with yourself
see it for what it truly is ~a wonderful achievement of hard work and
effort for that person.
Our life is a reflection of our own uniqueness, value and place in whatever we are into. Throughout one's life we will meet people all the time, that have higher ability or skill; and that is ok. Wouldn't be a dull world if everyone was exactly the same? Everyone should celebrate peoples uniqueness and abilities.
The act of being "Content" is a major teaching throughout the teachings of Lao Tsu. Invest energy to better yourself and forget about whats going on around you or in "internet land".
In the Taoist practice of Centering Meditation and casting our issues aside, and cultivating our self daily; you will find much peace that is already there. You will find that through practicing of contentment and peace where you are right now the energy of truth comes through the fog and chaos of our body/mind.
We experience there is no jealous, hate or worry. Our experience is likened to a clean window in which we can look at things more calm and clear. We find there is no need for adversarial emotions; each of us can then strive for cultivating meaningful lives with anyone we encounter.
The need for justifying is gone. We can develop ourselves for personal higher purposes. People that connect to the Well of Wisdom of Natural Healing of Nourishing Life Arts and Spiritual Cultivation begun to ascend personally to a high level.
To end this part I section begin to focus on daily life experience's right here and now:
The past is behind us;
the future has not reached us;
Why bother with things that cannot be reached?
Focus on Life today.
