260331 What I learned in my studies this morning 6

Today's Meditation:

Meditations, 8.4 (Hicks and Hicks)

The world is as it is.

I can accept this and make my way, doing what I can, or I can reject it, "kick against the pricks," and see where that gets me.

When I fight Nature, I've lost my way. Equanimity will always be over the horizon when I refuse to accept the truth of the world and insist on my own way.

Would that ugly and vicious people did not exist.

Would that accidents and delays did not happen.

Would that disappointment and frustration stopped plaguing our lives

But it does. They do. They will.

Live according to Nature and accept the world as it is. There is peace.
