Some of us
have been down the deep dark pit
more times than we wish to recall
Each time though
we have clawed our way out
rather than quit
🌑
The pit
which has no common name
does not define who or what we are
We are who we want to be
our destiny
is not controlled by any scar
Loved it… keep writing… keep motivating😀

I disagree with the line-We are who we want to be. We are what we are and trying to be something or someone different leads to suffering. As someone once said: who we are has many faces but those faces are not who we are.

I think we have different philosophical views. I don’t accept I am just what I am. I have an element of control otherwise innately I would be a very different person to the one I am.
Having said all that I don’t disagree with concept of suffering under Buddhism and I understand there are extremes, to being what you want to be, some realistic some not

Can a lifelong introvert become an extrovert because that’s who he wants to be? I tried it with and without alcohol and drugs and the experiment failed.
