No problems, just situations

There are no problems. There are just situations we don’t know how to handle.

The fact that we’re facing situations that we don’t know how to handle is a sign of growth. A life worth living has plenty of unknown situations, otherwise you need to enclose yourself in a room.

With the necessary balance, unknown situations can be handled in a way that we grow with them. Without balance, anxiety and dread. Balance is a condition that we develop within ourselves, not associated to anything external. It’s a way of being in the world.

“The obstacle is the way.”
