RE: Am I Cursed or Am I Cursed?

in #philosophy7 years ago

Wonderful insight. This mindset will aid you on the roller-coaster of life. :)

Every obstacle, every misfortune, and every curse is an extraordinary opportunity to expand. All is a blessing in disguise: No pain, no gain. We gain through loss. And nothing is every truly lost, all is transformed. Change: Death of the old for the birth of the new. In the overcoming of misfortune, we are released from limitation of a static comfort zone. Liberation is the purpose of any hardship.

As we begin to understand the underlying causes of our suffering, we gain in knowledge and wisdom. So that we may respond wisely when a painful lesson tries to reassert itself. Should we put what we've learned into practice, we'll eventually liberate ourselves from those causes. Prevention is better than a cure.

Death is the ultimate lesson of letting go, and it's also what motivates us to keep growing. We value our lives and the lives of those around us because we know that all the forms that populate our present circumstances will eventually transform.

"Full circle from the tomb of the womb to the womb of the tomb we come, an ambiguous, enigmatical incursion into a world of solid matter that is soon to melt from us like the substance of a dream." - Joseph Campbell
