Don’t will away suffering.


There is one will. The will of Reality (which some call “God”). If I’m suffering that is the Reality of it (often called “God’s will”), which is to say: it’s something that is HAPPENING. To attempt to will it away is an argument with reality. And I always lose that argument. 100% of the time. 

To free myself from suffering I don’t argue with reality, I go in search of reality

My suffering is reality’s signal that I’m confused, that, in what I’m thinking and believing, I’m missing some essential truth

It’s signaling me to inquire, to question what I’m thinking and believing for the love of truth.

So I don’t will away the suffering, I thank it and go in search of the truth. I’ll know I’ve found it when I am perfectly at peace. Because when I finally see the truth, suffering leaves on its own because now I’m seeing clearly and no longer need the signal. 

When I seek the truth, I find it. And I find that the truth is always eternally safe, loving, caring and kind.
