Eckhart Tolle says "See if you can catch yourself complaining in either speech or thought, about a situation you find yourself in, what other people do or say, your surroundings, your life situation, even the weather. To complain is always non-acceptance of what is. It invariably carries an unconscious negative charge. When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness.
Had the uni-cellular bacteria 4 and half billion years ago accepted and stayed still when the anaerobic environment they found themselves in slowly turned aerobic (therefore poisonous)instead of finding a way to overcome the situation,which they did, we wouldnt be here.
ReplyDeleteIn the same vein I would like to add that doing nothing and simply being gives the most contented(ful?)feeling.
This really spoke to me today. Thanks so much for posting this, Sangee!
