Tupperware--continued

...so, what do we do? We were so certain if we take care of the different tupperwares we would be taken care of. Of course there are some who just go with it and pray that they are taken care of.

we have to throw away the notion that life is something that we can easily perceive; the same goes with the notion that it is impossible to understand. We can't have the ostrich mentality and think that by focusing on what we think is right, it is right. Doing the right things and doing things right are two completely different, albeit not mutually exclusive, actions.

My point is, we must look at things holistically (I've been holding myself so hard to not using this word, but alas!). I say "must" and not "should" because that is the only way we can feel complete. Have you ever had the feeling that you're happy in some areas of your life but not in others, and then scrambling to address those inadequacies? That's like patching a wet, leaking clay bowl while thinking it will dry in time for you to enjoy life.

If you've not tried it, give meditation a chance. Don't get anti-climaxed by the simple solution, and don't think the value is diluted by the mass following. It's non glamorous, but simple things are usually just that, simple and unglamorous.
