Suffering

Last night i was thinking about how you could eliminate suffering.

To me suffering is a switch that anyone or anything can touch. This switch is embedded into your life that is unseen and you are unaware of. The switch comes in many forms of your life, and through suffering we inevitably change to compensate for that feeling and try not to allow that cause to have as much power in suffering the next time around.

You are constantly two different people(with the switch playing an important role), one person is who you started out as, and another is who you envision yourself as. By suffering you eliminate your old self in pursuit of something you desire(another switch takes its place). And by saying one thing, doing one action, grasping for thoughts we stumble down the rabbit hole and can not flip switches back to the original state.

So how do we eliminate suffering? By understanding your actions before hand, by realizing suffering will occur in greater portions when you try to get rid of it in your life, but when its gone, you will become a greater person for it and scale wise have less suffering in your life.

This task seems very simple, but opening closed doors and cleaning out the closet can be very painful. Only by doing this can you begin to move on, only by clearing your mind of the past suffering can you come to terms and make the wise choices.

Your goal is to eliminate the switch.
