Today I wanted to talk about the quote,
Resist and suffer or accept and adapt.
I first heard this from Insight Timer teacher Charles Freely.
And it really opened something in me.
That at any given moment in my entire life,
Which really the only moment is right now,
I have a choice.
I can resist whatever it is that's happening,
Whatever it is I'm feeling,
Emotionally,
Physically.
I can resist reality as it is and as a result,
Suffer.
Or I can radically accept reality as it is and adapt to any given circumstance,
Emotion,
Or feeling.
And so today,
I invite you to repeat this almost as a mantra as often as you can bring it into your mind's eye.
Resist and suffer,
Or accept and adapt.
The choice is always yours.
It's never anyone else's.
And it doesn't only apply to some things.
You can actually apply this to every single experience in any given moment.
Resist and suffer?
Or accept and adapt.
What will your choice be?
