“ Think about the suffering we cause ourselves internally through getting angry or jealous. ”
Happiness is a beautiful feeling. It is a beautiful mind, and a peaceful mind
~ Gyalwa Dokhampa
Desire also creates a sense of attachment in the mind. Not only are we attached to our way of thinking and of seeing the world, but we become over-attached to the people or things we desire.
We can become fearless as we let go off our grasp on the fear of failure, because failure too is a perception rather than a reality.
It is important to be considerate of the future, but when we invest all of our present in our future hopes, we are placing a lot of value on what is inevitably in doubt.
