Desperately Seeking Perfect

This week I have been revisiting a book written by Pema Chodron, called “When Things Fall Apart”. I read this book a few years back when my Mom passed away. It helped me to realize that life isn’t about trying to reach a place of lasting pleasure, in order to avoid pain, but to accept that we will experience both pleasure and pain, throughout life. I have to be reminded of this often, otherwise I find myself in what Buddhism calls samsara; a hopeless cycle that goes round and round.
