May the 5th be with you

People have a hard time of letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar. We also become attached to our burdens, sometimes more than the burdens are attached to us.

It is in our nature as we tend to dwell on more negative things than on the good. We become obsessed with negative things, with judgement, guilt and anxiety produced by thoughts about the future and so on….

The mind constantly plays tricks on us, and we wouldn’t worry so much about what others think of us until we realize… they seldom do. This whole fear of going out in public and self isolation has been just this, a mind trick. A self imposed mind trick.

“If you can’t fly, then run. If you can’t run, then walk. If you can’t walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward”

—– Martin Luther King Jr
