Got the WordPress app installed on my phone and now I’m able to post by audio, which is way better for me. Because I can talk all day long about my suffering, but typing all out is pretty difficult. i’m a pretty fast typist, but I discovered as I’ve been blogging a lot and it really is easier for me to say what I’m thinking because I can’t type fast enough to keep up with my thoughts and I start getting frustrated and I start questioning what I’m typing because I thought that I have may take a lot of words to get out and I’m not sure I can get it all out by typing it before I get exhausted.
so anyhow back to my suffering I did go say good night to my wife and she tried to resist us connecting but I stood there long enough to make it work I have to do that sometimes cause I have a little bit of a temper.
But you know my relationship with my wife is just one thing I suffer about. I suffer over the mess I suffer over money, injustice, stupid people, tragedy aches and pains of getting old. I suffer cause I don’t play the guitar well enough, because I’m losing my hair, everything that comes up, it’s something I’m suffering about. And I’m not unique, you’re suffering too. Don’t try and fool me.
In fact, we’re all suffering, but were all being quiet about it. When I talk about my suffering people get wide eyed and they look at me like I’m crazy, and maybe I am, but we’re all a little crazy.
The suffering I’m talking about, it’s not a bad thing, it’s actually a Buddhist lesson called the four Noble truths and the holy eightfold Path. And, basically what it says is, if you’re alive and you’re not enlightened, your suffering. Maybe it looks different for you than it does for me, probably does, but we all suffer in our own way.
Usually it manifests as depression, anxiety, worry, concern, angst, anger, or a whole host of other emotions, but what’s known for sure is that were all suffering on this planet. Whether you’re suffering because you don’t have enough food, or your suffering because your girlfriend cheated on you, it doesn’t matter, it’s the same suffering that we’re all experiencing all the time.
We can convince ourselves that we don’t need to feel this way, but the truth is, we do feel this way. It’s automatic that we experience things as suffering. It starts almost from the minute were born, going from the only thing we’ve known being a warm place, to a cold light-filled loud room. It’s a shock! We come into the world being shocked awake.
From there, it’s a constant battle to the end of our life to try and be happy despite being tuned into the misery sadness destruction and horrific tragedies existing on this planet we call earth. The suffering is unique to humans it’s an ego suffering it’s an emotional attachment to our thoughts.
