The very nature of life is impermanent.The color of leaves of trees changes, seasons follow each other cyclically, we grow older by the day, we experience periods of happiness, sorrow and misery followed by other emotions again. Thus, life is not static.It is constantly changing-ever evolving. In the context of this evolution,if the shifts in events are not major, or say "tectonic shifts", we presume life is , in general, stable .However, major events like a divorce, loss of job or loved one throws us off balance. Understanding that these events too, just like the "lesser significant" ones, are a part of the ebb and flow. It is the hankering for permanence and stability that creates misery.Attachment to supposed stability is the root of it. Keeping a not knowing mind, flowing freely,accepting what comes in the path and holding onto the belief that"this too shall pass" is the only way out!

Resisting Claiming to be a fighter Claiming not to succumb Butting heads with unchanging situations The above are some of the things one does when in a difficult situation in life.Encouraging literature urges one to fight hard, stay strong and never give up.Despite fighting the situation, it neither improves nor changes. One feels fatigued and mentally exhausted and yet the situation remains as is.One overthinks and tries to mentally find solutions to the problem but is unable to do so.The compounded misery begins to take its toll and results in mild depression, grouchiness and cranky behavior around people. The only way to deal with a difficult situation is to be in acceptance of it.Once the resistance vanishes, energy is focused automatically on improving it .
