“We think that if we just meditated enough or jogged enough or ate perfect food, everything would be perfect. But from the point of view of someone who is awake, that’s death. Seeking security or perfection, rejoicing in feeling confirmed and whole, self-contained and comfortable, is some kind of death. It doesn’t have any fresh air. There’s no room for something to come in and interrupt all that. We are killing the moment by controlling our experience. Doing this is setting ourselves up for failure, because sooner or later, we’re going to have an experience we can’t control: our house is going to burn down, someone we love is going to die, we’re going to find out we have cancer, a brick is going to fall out of the sky and hit us on the head, somebody’s going to spill tomato juice all over our white suit, or we’re going to arrive at our favorite restaurant and discover that no one ordered produce and seven hundred people are coming for lunch.”
― Pema Chödrön
I did everything right.
I did high school right, I did college right, I got the right job after college.
I did relationship right, I did marriage right, I did divorce right.
I did job titles right, I did promotions right, I did career right.
I did everything right.
I believed that if I did LIFE right then everything would be perfect.
That’s not true. Perfect isn’t much fun anyway. Being too comfortable isn’t the same as being happy.
