We really have to remember that we don't have to stay stuck. We don't. We don't have to stay in a place of helplessness or despair or suffering. We can choose not to suffer. We can let go of suffering. To a great degree. We have to remember this. Yes, We will still have things that don't go as we want. We will suffer. Either through resistance or physical pain or old heavy emotions. But we don't have to propagate our suffering. By complaining about what is or feeling helpless in the face of it. We have to always find a way to take action, Even if that just means bringing ease into our body. But also looking at what we can do to stay physically engaged. Make art if you're feeling stuck. Do something to wake yourself up to your power, Your creative power, And then use that to create a better life.
