Esconderse del sufrimiento no es posible.


Life contains both pleasure and pain. Existence is permeated by suffering. Sadness and melancholy are normal experiences, they are meant to be. When feeling undesirable emotions it’s important to allow them to be and understand their impermanent nature.

Hiding from suffering is not an option. It cannot be covered over or avoided, attempting to do so just compounds the problem. Suffering is stacked up on itself this way.

Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run. Hold onto stillness, practice mindfulness and allow the storm clouds to pass by, the sun will shine again.
