Change in the Wishing well

I can't seem to comprehend why when striving for more answers, we are left with simply more questions.



Why can't there be a manual saying how we can get ourselves out of the rutt we constantly seem to find ourselves in.

and why when faced with the curveballs life seems to chuck at us we can't seem to walk away... well at least i can't. To me walking away is the same is giving up and that is something i can't seem to agree with. I see things through till the end, i guess that comes with my nature. Yet in trying to answer all my questions and dilemas we end up in a situation far worse than we need to be.

A monk i've known all my life said to me once, ''Suhada you can't save everyone and resolve everything when you want to. Its like the person is drowning in the ocean and you jump in after them in hope to save them yet you yourself can't swim then you both drown.''

I rejected the thought of this because in the end its merely another case of running away from the issues that are most confronting right?

So i asked what else i could do, to be told. ''Cast a line and wait for them to pull on it. Wait until they want your help.''

Im not one for religious preaching but im beginning to realise that waiting isn't being weak. Rather it takes more courage to wait, putting the ones own personal needs second. Waiting isn't running rather bracing yourself for impact so the hurdles can be overcome.

To conclude all i can say is that we all walk a path of misfortune. Yet its life greatest challenges that leaves us all the stronger. Sumise to say its what allows us to grow up.

Best be off now kids
