On change of weather!

 

On change of weather!

Weather keeps changing...

Sometimes, it keeps changing from one extreme to the other....

That is the way Nature works.

We can do nothing. No body can do anything about this change.

But, we can certainly change the way we dress to not suffer the weather.

We can make necessary changes in our life and lifestyle to make good use of the weather. And this - mind you - just THIS is in our hands. And that is enough if we learn to do it. It is ENOUGH if we accept this reality! And it is more than enough if we flow with this flow of Nature.

Guess the reasons and ways that make us suffer this weather?!

When we ask questions like "But why is it hot in summer or why does it rain in rainy? "

OR

When we make demands like "I want my winters to be warm and summers to be hot"

OR 

Make wishes like "I wish there was no change of weather at all in life. I wish there was only one weather throughout the year!"

You are smart enough to know how to look at all this and where to look.

You are smart enough to see the Truth!

You are smart enough to see the problem.

You are good enough to know how to address that problem.

You are strong enough to overcome it...

Now, as they say, the ball is in your court!!!

Just you know "It was never about the weather, it was always about the clothing"

It was never about the situations in life, it was always about how you dealt with them!!!

Everyone wants to be (surakshit) safe and hence want to change or control the weather. It may or may not happen in life. And that becomes cause of our pain and suffering. That is the cause of our concern.

But everyone can work being (swarakshit) i.e., being self reliant, empowered, being strong. Let's stop worrying about things that can't be controlled. Let's divert our energies on making things work. Let us work on things that are within our control. Situations are not within our limits. But how we deal with them certainly is. So let's master this art right!

# situation is real suffering is optional, situation doesn't make or break us, dealing with life, life and its facts, problem and solution, controllable things of life...
