Looking for solid ground

It’s not impermanence per se…. that is the cause of our suffering. Rather, it’s our resistance to the fundamental uncertainty of our situation. Our discomfort arises from all of our effort to put ground under our feet, to realize our dream of constant okayness.

Pema Chodron, The Fundamental Ambiguity of Being Human

One thought on “Looking for solid ground

  1. DUNNOW’S PRINCIPLE OF UNCERTAINTY

    Don’t assume you can trust every moment you meet
    Or you will die of disappointment

    Don’t assume you can’t trust any moment
    Or you will die without love

    Just learn to meet each moment as if it were new
    Uncertain

    Because it is

    – From “The Book Of Guff”
