WHO ARE WE TO KNOW HOW LIFE SHOULD BE?

We often think we know how we would like our life to turn out. We think we know what we want for our future. We think that our hopes and dreams should be fulfilled and that if they are not, then that must mean that there is something wrong with us. But who are we to know how life should be? It seems that only when we truly give up any idea that we can control what happens, or any hope that our dreams will come true, that life brings exactly what is needed. This is not some ‘new age’ attitude of ‘trusting the universe’, or some kind of nihilistic passivity, but an absolute surrender to the nature of life. Whether we like it or not, Life includes the whole spectrum of experience and not only the ones we want or agree with. Whatever happens may not always be comfortable, but it is exactly as it should be, because it is.
