REALITY OF LIFE

Circumstances certainly have a great effect.

They can be overcome by using the essential reality of life, rather than bemoaning them.

If you are alive, you cannot escape some simple realities.

If you are alive, you need to understand, and remember to abide by, some basic principles of life, or suffer the results.

Would you rather be the fish or the bear?

To navigate life well, remember, and use these simple rules. Then, develop your own uses of them.

1-Pay attention! The bear in the image paid careful attention to time, location, and opened the mouth at the right time.

2- No one is exactly like you in all aspects, and you are not exactly like anyone else in all aspects... Remembering this will reduce annoyance, suspicion, anger when someone is different. You can have dialogs, rather than debates.

3- You depend on the world to produce, and maintain, what you want, and need. Remembering this will let you feel more appreciation for your life. Would you rather feel appreciation or resentment?

4- Whatever you do affects everything else. Just living has an impact.

5-Things change. Your reflection, your loved ones, the seasons, the flowers, and fruits are never still for long. Yet, there may be a reflection tomorrow, and loved ones, and seasons, flowers, fruit.

There is change, and there is persistence.
