Is there a limit to how much we can improve our lives? Why?
Why You Don’t Feel Good
Why feeling good isn't about adding things, but letting go of things.
Waiting.
The answer to all the answers in life is first and foremost to wait. We all have our own ways to manifest our destiny, to react to the stimulus of the world and enforce ourselves and desires. But even in moments in which we must act immediately, our first action must be to wait. Wait …
Breathing.
I've been meditating for a bit now, and I've started to notice, my regular breath seems . . . weak. I know part of meditating means just observing your breath, and that's what I'm trying to do, but it seems like I feel better breathing through my mouth and when I breath through my nose, …

Warning: This is a rant, proceed with caution. When things are amazing, we feel like we're on top of the world. Well, because, we've made it, right? We're now the epitome of what it means to achieve. We are here to guide and help others see the way, all because we—!—have figured out how to …

Again.
Life is a mystery. Full of pain and misery, yet it is this pain and misery that gives meaning to the happiness we all yearn to achieve. Again, and again, I have wondered, "Why, why has life sent me such strife?" Like a fool, I learn, and then forget the meaning. It is but to …

From our fear, we harbor desire. From our fatigue, we harbor importance. From our despair, we harbor clarity. If you follow the route of happiness, you will find yourself colorless.
