Being happy with your lot

What happens when it rains? 

You get wet.

And so? A little discomfort?

As we mature we need to learn to compartmentalize.

Why should the fact that my clothing got wet change my mood? 

Why should it affect what I’m going to eat now?
Why should it affect  my daily discipline?
Why should it affect if I’m going to make my sales calls?

My clothes got wet.
My skin is uncomfortable. 

Is it #frustration from unmet expectations?

I wanna be dry. I want to be dry. I want. I want.

Lots of human suffering come from an attachment to ‘wants’.  

You want what you don’t have.
You don’t want what you do have. 

Who is rich? He who is happy with his lot.

That’s the solution. Stop wanting so much.

If you have it, it must be good for you.
if you don’t have it, you don’t need it! 

What makes you happy? Let me know in the comments.
